Never heard any president just outright dismiss cries for help like this. Fuck this guy.

    His reply:

    “I do say this. Beef we have to get down. I think of groceries. It’s an old-fashioned word, but it’s a beautiful word. Beef we have to get down, but we’ve got prices way down,” Trump said, further claiming that energy costs are also already down and “all-encompassing.”

    My eyes figuratively popped when he started insulting the autocrat leading North Korea who just announced that he has nukes now, way back in 2017 I guess. Maybe a few more times after that, until a pattern emerged. The above quote is just par for the course, not even mildly interesting.

      Can we have just one fucking person follow up some time and ask him why he thinks a word (in his case, fucking “groceries”) is a “beautiful word”?

      I just can’t…

            Most ultra wealthy people have really well stocked fridges even if their chef or nutritionist or whoever shops for them. They open their fridge and see groceries

            Trump grabs McDonald’s or goes to restaurants. I honestly think he doesn’t understand the concept of groceries, it’s so neat to him because he just learned where hamburgers come from
