Porcelain throne. I don't think the toilet at the white house or hospital you get your chemo at has a gold toilet. And if it does, I really want to shit in it to say I did

Trump famously has a golden toilet

Normally I would say his shit stinks just like everyone else's, but I'm willing to bet it literally smells worse than most people's .

I don't want to shit in that toilet

It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor of Mankind has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the vast Imperium of Man for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day so that he may never truly die.Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance.

It wasn't funny 8 years ago, and still isn't.

Drag thinks it's funny because they're both moldy fascists.

That's not quite it though. He might've used autocratic measures, even cruelty from certain points of view, but in the end he saw something nobody else did, and acted to save his species.

..and in the end he gave up god-like powers to preserve what was left of his humanity and went on full well he couldn't win in any conventional manner. After said confrontation he willingly shackled himself in perpetual agony to give the species he just gave everything for a chance to rebuild and forge on. He even built a safeguard or two for ..unforeseen events.

Do you see orange douchebag doing any of that for anyone else, ever?
