Also: The NYT reports that Donald Trump would like to be on Mount Rushmore, something he has said publicly many times, but which is fake news, but isn't a bad idea now that you mention it!

Billy Jack from Fraggle Rock, United States.
I like this one.
What the heck?
Billy Jack says, as much as I despise him, Trump, as much as I despise Trump as a person and every other politician on both sides, he actually has a valid point.
This guy had kept the African, had kept the American dream alive.
He does seem to care about the common American.
All scandals aside, I don't vote by the way.
That's actually Donald Trump.
What the fuck?
Listen, I don't like him or anything, but I mean he's doing a fantastic job.
He's crushing it.
I think he's worthy of eternal representation on one of the grandest monuments to a president we can offer.
I also love how there's multiple discussions going on right now.
There's one discussion where they're like, should Trump be on this mountain?
And the other discussion, which is happening around like most of us, it's like, look at this abomination of a mountain in the first place.
Yeah.
Like this thing is like disgusting.
And they're like, maybe we should add on to it.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Well, that's what, I mean, you know, so we'll compromise.
We'll meet in the middle and do absolutely nothing.
Yeah.
And I think that's, you know, I think Congress can serve as an example, you know?
I mean, when the left is like, hey, you know, the left in Congress is like, hey, we should have a $15 minimum wage.
And the right wing is like, hey, we should abolish the minimum wage altogether.
You're like, okay, well, we can agree on the current federal minimum wage of $7.
Yeah, yeah, totally, totally.
I'll tell you, okay, you don't want us to put Don't Jump on there?
Fine.
We're just gonna let it rock.
We're gonna let it be the way it is.
It's like, that's it.
It's staying the way it is, and you got what you wanted.
Are you happy now?
I also like the, I don't vote, by the way.
Yeah, that's beautiful.
That's a flex.
It is a flex.
I mean, this guy has to be impartial.
He doesn't vote.
He has no opinion whatsoever except that Trump is one of the greatest presidents in living memory.
And I'm proving that I am impartial.
I don't vote.
What do I have to say about that?
This is a very Jacob Wohl, like the hipsters at the coffee shop are saying that even though they don't like Trump, they think you should go on Mount Rushmore.
Right, the hipsters in the coffee shop, they're all saying, oh, I pretend to vote for Democrats, but I never actually voted for anyone until Trump came into office.
Yep, yep.
Physical Graffiti from Tampa, so a Led Zeppelin fan from Tampa Bay, Florida says, Obama's image should be chiseled into the boulders on Rikers Island, and he placed in a jail cell for spying on America's favorite president.
I like love that.
We should both throw him in jail, but also immortalize him.
Yeah.
If you were such an ill-ass prisoner that you got chiseled into the side of the building, that's a fucking flex.
That's badass.
Hang on.
Shut the fuck up.
That was just Alex farting.
Hey, don't say that.
Um, it's such a weird brand of politics.
It's like a very fascist brand of politics, you know?
It's very much like Mussolini to just be like, oh, we're gonna put the bad politician's faces on the bad things and we're gonna put the good politician's face like giant on the good things.
It's like an extremely baby-brained form of semiotics.
Babies, one of the first things they learn to recognize is a face.
It's just like, we're going to put Obamas on the bad thing.
And we're gonna put Trumps on the good thing, yeah.
King Vitamin, so here we get a liberal response that I thought was just wonderful.
King Vitamin says, So they're doing like a little bit of script writing here, you know, we know the liberals love their TV shows.
I think King Vitamin is like punching up reality here a little bit.
King Vitamin says, the governor replied, don't worry, there will be plenty of rock crushing in your future.
Got him.
Got his ass.
Yep.
You're hitting the chain gang, Trumpy.
You are going to be the one who is in the Obama prison.
And Obama's face is going to be on it, but because it's good.
