USA v IRJ

Just another Wednesday.

President Trump made two glaring mix-ups Wednesday while speaking to the press at a NATO summit in Turkey.

A few minutes later, sitting alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and pointing to him directly, Trump asked reporters, “You have a question for President Putin, please?” The assembled press chuckled, and some tried to correct Trump, who then tried to spin his mistake by claiming that’s what he meant.

    I imagine Japan is quite shocked to learn it’s an Islamic Republic! When will it be time to Amendment 25 him?

    Though that would leave us with President Vance, and I’m not sure that would be much of an improvement, maybe worse, because we probably wouldn’t have the TACO phenomenon…not to mention, VACO is a really weird acronym.
