The Walk Of Shame

This is not the morning after ‘walk of shame’…..

This particular shame was what Donny has done to the plaques of some of our presidents….more from the ‘great student of history’….

It’s not just the Oval Office getting the Trump treatment—now the White House’s Colonnade is talking, too. President Trump has added a new feature to the West Wing walkway he’s dubbed the “Presidential Walk of Fame”: bronze plaques beneath the portraits of his predecessors that read more like campaign broadsides than historical notes. Many were written by Trump himself, according to press secretary Karoline Leavitt, and echo his social media style, complete with random capital letters and exclamation points, ABC News reports.

The plaques for Joe Biden and Barack Obama are the sharpest. Biden’s, paired only with a picture of an autopen rather than a portrait of Biden himself, calls him “by far, the worst President in American History,” falsely claims he took office through “the most corrupt Election ever seen,” and blames him for everything from the Afghanistan withdrawal to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Hamas’ attack on Israel. It also asserts Biden is in “severe mental decline” and slams his use of the autopen. Obama’s plaque labels him “one of the most divisive political figures in American History” and falsely accuses him of spying on Trump’s 2016 campaign and orchestrating what Trump calls the “Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax.”

The text also repeatedly references Hillary Clinton, noting under both Obama’s and Bill Clinton’s portraits that she lost the presidency to Trump. Obama and Biden declined to comment, and the Clintons have not responded to requests for comment. It’s not just Democrats getting criticized on the plaques; the AP reports George W. Bush, who has distanced himself from Trump, is berated on his plaque for starting two wars. Leavitt praised the new displays as “eloquently written descriptions” of each president’s legacy and framed Trump as a “student of history.” There are also two plaques for Trump, one for each term, and both “effusively praise” him, the New York Times reports.

Ronald Reagan’s plaque is similarly effusive, declaring, “he was a fan of President Donald J. Trump before President Trump’s historic run for the White House. Likewise, President Trump was a fan of his!” And the odd notes continue further back in history, with Gerald Ford’s, for example, suggesting he lost his quest for re-election “probably because of his brave pardon of Richard Nixon.” The plaques are part of a broader physical makeover Trump has pushed at the White House. He has paved over the Rose Garden, heavily renovated the Palm Room and Oval Office with more gold trim and new statues, and, most dramatically, demolished the East Wing to build a large ballroom he says will be finished by the end of his term.

Everyday this person proves what a disgusting, vindictive, vile and pathetic human being he truly is….he and his actions should make us all sick to our stomachs.

After thought:  A busy day for ‘bots here on IST….over 900 hits before lunch….anyone else?

A Steamin’ Pile Of …..

I admit that I am a political junkie and had to watch the speech made by his lord high dumbass last night…..and I was not disappointed.

I figured it would be a lot of  Dems bad, Biden bad, me good, me savior…..and so on….and like I said I was not disappointed….

Here is a quick look at the speech (?)……

President Trump tried in a live speech Wednesday night from the White House to convince the American people that they are wrong to worry about the US economy, saying any challenges are being repaired, the AP reports. “Eleven months ago, I inherited a mess, and I’m fixing it,” Trump said. His remarks came at a crucial time as he tries to rebuild his steadily eroding popularity. Public polling shows most US adults are frustrated with his handling of the economy as inflation picked up after his tariffs raised prices and hiring slowed. Flanked by two Christmas trees with a portrait of George Washington behind him in the White House’s Diplomatic Reception Room, Trump sought to pin any worries about high inflation on his predecessor, Joe Biden.

In 2026, Trump and his party face a referendum on their leadership as the nation heads into the midterm elections that will decide control of the House and the Senate. The White House remarks were a chance for Trump to try to regain some momentum after Republican losses in this year’s elections raised questions about the durability of his coalition. Trump brought charts with him to make the case that the economy is on an upward trajectory. But the hard math internalized by the public paints a more complicated picture of an economy that has some stability but few reasons to inspire much public confidence.

The stock market is up, gasoline prices are down and tech companies are placing large bets on the development of artificial intelligence. But inflation that had been descending after spiking to a four-decade high in 2022 under Biden has reaccelerated after Trump announced his tariffs in April. The consumer price index is increasing at an annual rate of 3%, up from 2.3% in April. The affordability squeeze is also coming from a softening job market. Monthly job gains have averaged a paltry 17,000 since April’s “Liberation Day” in which Trump announced import taxes that he later suspended and then readjusted several months later. The unemployment rate has climbed from 4% in January to 4.6%.

He was right stock markets are up….but only means the Robber Barons are manipulating the crap out of the markets…..average peons like me does not see a good economy….sorry but he is president it is HIS economy no matter how much he wishes otherwise.

Within the speech he tries to get the military indebted to him (he may need them in the coming months)…..

President Trump delivered a politically charged speech Wednesday carried live in prime time on network television, seeking to pin the blame for economic challenges on Democrats while announcing he is sending a $1,776 bonus check to US troops for Christmas, the AP reports. The remarks came as the nation is preparing to settle down to celebrate the holidays, yet Trump was focused more on divisions within the country than a sense of unity. His speech was a rehash of his recent messaging that has so far been unable to calm public anxiety about the cost of groceries, housing, utilities, and other basic goods.

Trump has promised an economic boom, yet inflation has stayed elevated and the job market has weakened sharply in the wake of his import taxes. Trump suggested that his tariffs—which are partly responsible for boosting consumer prices—would fund a new “warrior dividend” for 1.45 million military members, a payment that could ease some of the financial strains for many households. “The checks are already on the way,” he said. Presidential addresses to the nation carried on network television are traditionally less partisan than rally speeches, but Trump gave a condensed version of his usual political remarks, including insistence that he’s “fixing” the economy.

The president sought to end the address on a high note, noting the Olympics and World Cup soccer matches that will take place in the United States next year. Trump made an appeal to patriotism by noting that 2026 is the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and closed his speech by wishing viewers a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

All in all the speech was a POS….as his tradition he blames others for any failures and pats himself on the back for non-existent success…

If you were smart enough to opt out of his speech then I hope this will help you understand what crap was spread.

A classless talk.
