The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

...was clearly articulated during his nearly two-hour "brief dinner remarks" -- to have heads of state and their countries grovel before him.

TRUMP: "These countries are calling us up. Kissing my ass."

There is no other rhyme or reason for him. His entire failed business career is dominance-based: a deal with Mad King Donald is an opportunity for him to abuse and exploit the other party for his personal benefit, and as president not for the benefit of the United States.

And speaking of his "brief dinner remarks," as the world economy burns to the ground and your life savings go up in smoke, here is just some of what Mad King Donald proclaimed:

TRUMP: "Anybody have a windmill by your house? Congratulations, you'll never sell your house. And today I signed historic executive orders to unleash coal production to the highest levels ever. Because coal is the most powerful thing."

TRUMP: "I saved every steel mill. We only have steel mills because of what I did."

TRUMP: "Adam Schifty Schiff. Can you believe this guy? He's got the smallest neck I've ever seen. And the biggest head. We call him watermelon head. How can that big fat face stand on a neck that looked like this finger? ... how we can allow people like that to run in office is a shame."

TRUMP: "Do I call him Sleepy Joe or Crooked Joe? Could we take a vote, please?"

And on and on and on and on. He never tires of hearing himself ramble and mutter.

Who but someone in a cult could listen to these mad ravings for nearly two hours and come to any other conclusion: Mad King Donald is unwell and unfit.
