weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him

Gentle souls,

This movie is LITERALLY shown in the Defense Nuclear Weapons Schoolโ€™s course on Nuclear Policy.

But considering how many tropes from post-apocalyptic movies weโ€™re all now living through, Iโ€™ll forgive you if you donโ€™t have it in you to imagine this nightmare too.

I found another fun Veo 3 prompt: "Realistic footage of the moon landing, but it took place in [year]"

Here is 1883 AD, 1255 AD, 44 AD, 2300 BC, 30,000 BC, and 65 million years ago

Yes, there was apparently wind on the moon back then, you are just going to have suspend disbelief a bit.

The White House was forced to react to South Park as Trump completely loses it with rage, calling the show โ€œnot relevantโ€ and "hanging on by a thread," despite the show recently securing a $1.5 billion deal.

Trump is considering suing over โ€˜tiny penisโ€™ allegations.

The night ICE was seen transporting shackled children, US civilians gathered at the L.A. federal detention center demanding their safety and release. Trump regime forces and MAGA loyal Marines violently attacked them. At least one civilian was injured in the attack. #3E #StopICE (๐Ÿ“น@TheVGundam)

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover weโ€™ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. ๐Ÿ˜ก

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Weโ€™ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably wonโ€™t share intel with us. Because people couldnโ€™t vote for a woman.
