      Trump still has trouble distinguishing between being the owner of a business and being a U.S. President. In fairness, though, he never has read the job description.

      Trump is a “coveter” and that was one of Hitler’s afflictions too. Trump wants that which he is NOT entitled to have, and so he tries to take those things anyway. Hitler stole millions of dollars worth of gold, jewels, paintings, and anything else he saw that was NOT his.

      If Trump only has a 37% approval rating, then why are we putting up with this bullshit? We should be protesting at GOVERNMENT buildings, not street corners. Politicians need to be afraid of us.

      Trump wanted to gift it to King Charles. Apparently chintzy wall-leprosy crap from Temu with gold leaf added wasn’t cool enough?

      “The request for a gift, according to the Times, came from a State Department liaison who used the email address ‘giftgirl2025’ and initially told the museum that they were looking for ‘like a sword or something.'”

    5. It would mean nothing to King Charles and Trump just wanted a “cool” gift to lord over past presidents.
