Jeff Tiedrich - world leaders, stop legitimizing Preznit Fuckwit with your presence

King Charles III, can we talk?

Charles, why are you doing this? why are you conferring legitimacy onto a piss-baby fascist by gracing him with your royal presence? there’s no good reason for it. what’s in it for you? you’re a literal king. it’s right there in your title. you could be doing anything else with your time right now.

no world leader needs to be giving Donny the time of day. he’s turned the United States into a pariah state, so treat him like the pariah he is. just say no.

plus, Donny’s an unpredictable ticking time bomb. meet with him, and you’re basically spinning the Big Wheel of Bugfuck. anything could happen. worst case, you’ll end up dogpiled in the Oval Bordello like Zelenskyy.

And trying to make the best of a bad situation.

But don't assume Trump gets the stamp of approval just because he gets visited by overseas dignitaries.

Behind the scenes it will be more . . . America, is this all you can give the rest of the world? Shame!

The looks of disgust in the past from the Pope and Queen Elizabeth said it all.

Her dress is the same color and so similar in style to Camilla's... that would be an affront, diplomatically speaking, IMO. I know, I know... petty pickings. Still, it just goes to show nothing is too small for the trump's to demean.
