    Lol.

    The presidency. The White House. Medals of Freedom. Our democracy.

    None of these mean anything anymore.

    This guy will do absolutely anything to distract from the fact he refuses to release the Epstein Files, which he is CLEARLY named multiple times in… Possibly hundreds of times.

      Likely more than that. Didn’t he task like 1,000 FBI agents to work long hours redacting his name?

      Except Camacho was actually humble and driven entirely by duty. So much so that when they found someone he knew was smarter than him he was fully ready to give up his office. It was a matter of practicality and not ego for him.

        Camacho was actually a fairly good president compared to your current guy. Consider:

        He appointed an expert to fix a problem he couldn’t and actually took his advice.

        He was willing to course correct when new information was presented to him.

        I don’t believe that President Camacho was a disgusting pedo.

    How long before the Presidency starts hosting monster truck themed executions at the Whitehouse? It can’t be much longer now.

    Ten bucks says this is all happening because, somewhere along the way, someone explained to him that an octagon has more sides than a pentagon.

    Wow, now that’s a not-the-onion post for sure, yikes.

    Oddly, not the first time people did trashy shit on the White House lawn. Look up Andrew Jacksons fucking hillbilly BBQs— just as racist, too!

      I came in this thread to post something like

      Andrew Jackson’s back

      Or

      Andrew Jackson, is that you?

      After this, the next thing is WWE at the white house, giving the favour back to Vince McMahon
