Last Week At The Sh*t Show–28Dec25

The last report for 2025 and boy has it been full of stuff other than the Christmasy stuff.

Let’s start with his message to the nation….

President Donald Trump isn’t feeling merry on Christmas Eve.

Trump, 79, issued a scathing screed against “Radical Left Scum” in a 101-word Truth Social post on Wednesday night.

“Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly,” he began, before launching into a laundry list of issues he has repeatedly pinned on his Democratic predecessors.

“We no longer have Open Borders, Men in Women’s Sports, Transgender for Everyone, or Weak Law Enforcement.”

What a pathetic human!

He even thinks his ranting and disconnected thoughts ate a modern day Gettysburg address….

What is the 21st century equivalent of Abraham Lincoln’s historic Gettysburg Address? President Donald Trump’s Twitter account, according to President Trump.

The president made the bold and self-flattering claim while giving a White House tour to Fox News star Jesse Watters during his first term, Watters said on Saturday. Watters shared the story while giving a speech at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest 2025 in Phoenix, Arizona.

“We go up there, and there’s the Gettysburg Address, and it’s encased in glass,” Watters remembered. “And he’s standing next to it and he says, ‘You know, Jesse, some people say my Twitter account is the modern-day equivalent of the Gettysburg Address.”

Trump Called His Twitter Posts the ‘Modern-Day Equivalent of the Gettysburg Address’

What a deluded pig!

His vanity does not stoop there…..now he zeroes in on the Navy….

President Trump announced plans Monday for a new class of battleships to be named after him. “They’ll be the fastest, the biggest, and by far 100 times more powerful than any battleship ever built,” he said during the announcement at Mar-a-Lago, per the AP. The Trump-class warships would be significantly larger than today’s Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, which Trump has often derided as ugly and outdated, and are envisioned as 30,000-ton “large surface combatants” built to carry future weapons such as rail guns and high-energy lasers, a defense source tells the Wall Street Journal.

Trump said artificial intelligence capabilities will be a “big factor” in the new ships, the New York Times reports. He stressed that he wants them to be built quickly, saying he plans to meet with defense contractors next week “because they’re too slow.” The president said he plans to take a hand in designing the new ships. “The US Navy will lead the design of these ships along with me, because I’m a very aesthetic person,” he said, per the AP. The first of the new ships will be called the USS Defiant, reports Reuters. He said the government would acquire up to 25 of the ships.

The announcement comes days after the Navy rolled out plans for a new frigate to replace the recently canceled Constellation-class program. Together, the frigates and the new battleships form the backbone of the Golden Fleet idea, which would field more large ships with long-range, potentially hypersonic missiles, plus a larger number of smaller frigates based on the Coast Guard’s Legend-class National Security Cutter. At Mar-a-Lago, Navy Secretary John Phelan said the Trump-class battleships will carry the “nuclear-armed sea-launched cruise missile,” the Times reports. “This is just one piece of the president’s Golden Fleet that we’re going to build,” he said.

The AP notes that the term battleship has historically referred to “a large, heavily armored vessel armed with massive guns designed to bombard other ships or targets ashore”—a type of warship that declined in importance after WWII. Defense analysts say the Navy needs more powerful ships to defend aircraft carriers, though retired Rear Adm. Mark Montgomery, senior director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, says the Golden Fleet is “exactly what we don’t need” because the ships are “not optimized to provide lethality against the Chinese threat.” “That is not what these are focused on—they are focused on the president’s visual that a battleship is a cool-looking ship,” he tells the Journal.

How do you think the economy is doing?

Donny has the lie for you….

With nearly one month left in the first year of President Donald Trump’s second presidency, approval ratings from voters have flipped.

Here’s how the economy could be weighing down the approval rating for the president, despite the stock market trading near record highs.

Trump was recently asked what grade he would give the economy. The president told Politico that he would give the economy an “A+” and followed his response up by saying he would give it an “A+++++.”

The Emerson College poll shows that most voters disagree with an A rating and many actually would give the president a F for his handling of the economy.

The president has boasted about stock market indexes such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average hitting all-time highs.

The markets may be all that but my wallet begs to differ with his lie….us peasants are not feeling the prosperity that Donny gives too his tech bros and billionaires.

There is a whole meme brewing around the VP and Erika Kirk…..

Erika Kirk and JD Vance shared another awkward hug that has the internet begging Usha Vance to run for the hills — or at least warn her that the hills are where the former beauty queen is trying to send her marriage. This time, the embrace in question happened on day four of Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest Conference, as seen on YouTube. Perhaps anticipating backlash, JD initiated a high five, but Kirk decided to make it weird and went in for a hug. People on the internet had a lot to say about it, because of course they did. After last time, Kirk likely knew that was going to happen the second she leaned in.

“JD Vance is clearly having an affair with Erika Kirk behind Usha’s back … ” someone speculated in a thread on X. Another user said, “Usha should be very concerned with JD Vance tight grips with ‘grieving widow’ Erika Kirk.” They claimed that Kirk saying she’d help JD become president in a future election was a possible sign of her intentions: “First Lady aspirations? … Erika is a fake.” Someone else put Usha’s apparent situation more simply. “JD had to apologize to Usha. No more. Erika Vance by 2027. Mark my words,” the X user wrote

Who knows if this is true….but the idiots that watch Reality TV will make it a ‘thing’.

Donny is always thumping his chest on the wars he stopped and yet there is another side to that story….

President Donald Trump came into office presenting himself as a peace president. “We will measure our success not only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end, and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into,” he said in his inaugural address.

By those standards, his presidency has been a failure. Trump launched nearly as many airstrikes in five months as former President Joe Biden did in his entire term, according to Armed Conflict Location and Event Data, a nonprofit that monitors wars around the world. And those airstrikes have hit places where the U.S. military was not fighting during Biden’s term, from the Caribbean to Iran.

Of course, Biden himself was guilty of the same sort of double-talk. He bragged that “the United States is not at war anywhere in the world” less than an hour after U.S. Central Command announced a new air raid on Yemen. Like death and taxes, it seems a certainty of life that American presidents will talk peace while continuing—and expanding—war.

Here are four countries where Trump has done that:

That Was The Week That Was….things do not get better they just keep getting more disjointed, insulting and pathetic….and sadly I do not see any better for 2026.

  1. DT can’t even give us a break from his crap over Christmas. I cannot recall a person in such a high position so needy of praise and acclamation. He even makes Kim Jong-Un seem laid back. I am expecting more of the same drivel over the New Year celebrations, when he will probably claim credit for a new year happening just because of him.
    Best wishes, Pete.

    1. …so needy of praise and acclamation — TOTALLY and COMPLETELY describes the current POTUS. Along with his unending insults and vitriol towards others, we have a perfect specimen of a Spoiled Child holding the highest office in the civilized world.
