I'm more bothered by this tidbit:

Since then, Trump has highlighted the aircraft, saying in September: “When our enemies hear the F-35 engines, when they’re roaring overhead, their souls will tremble, and they will know the day of reckoning has arrived.”

Seriously? That's the kind of bombastic bullshit you expect from a Third World tinpot dictator.

Speaking of doubling down, Trump doubled down on the current scandal of the week and gave Sen. Durbin a nickname by.... adding a y to his first name (though his first name is actually Richard and 'Dick' is his nickname sorta).

Wheres the creativity? lol

I was gonna paste some Trump 40K fan art, but holy fucking jesus there's too much to choose from. Apparently, the Reddit Trump-humper camp really, REALLY likes 40K.

Well this is the man that responds to “you are <insert negative thing here>!” by saying “I’m the least <insert negative thing here> ever!” so what do you expect? :p

I half expected him to at least be somewhat creative with the nickname as just adding a letter to the first name is pretty low hanging fruit. Not that it's at all presidential anyhow.

Now John Adams...there was a President who could sling an insult, calling Thomas Jefferson a "mean-spirited, low-lived fellow, the son of a half-breed Indian squaw, sired by a Virginia mulatto father.”

I mean, daaaaamn son!

You know what's worse? F-35's are stealth craft, meant for anti-aircraft or ground support roles. If you're hearing the engines overhead, someone fucked up.

Or they're buzzing the enemy? It's stealth to radar, not acoustically.

I mean, I long for the days when our presidents could be racist without resorting to slurs.

I do too. Bonus points if they put it in terms of relation to the Black Panther somehow and/or references Wakanda's technological advances in some way.

Those wacky Wakandians. What will they do next.

What would be even more awesome if other journos, unaware of it start pretending they know stuff to not look stupid and start asking further questions, made up on the spot so the whole thing turns into this wierd ad lib of a parallel universe or something
