White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said, “The plaques are eloquently written descriptions of each President and the legacy they left behind. As a student of history, many were written directly by the President himself.”

Remember his remarks on Gettysburg? Truly, a student of history.

[–] protist@mander.xyz 11 points 1 day ago

"Gettysburg, wow—I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor—did you ever notice it? He's no longer in favor. 'Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.' They were fighting uphill, he said, 'Wow, that was a big mistake,' he lost his great general. 'Never fight uphill, me boys,' but it was too late."

-Donald J. Trump

What can't trump do?!

It's so fucking infuriating they all treat him like he's capable of doing anything.

And if he did, he could hold it until the potty and not need diapers. Every time.

"He took great care, and used his best crayons. Mr. Putin even put one on his refrigerator. "

I fully believe he is a "student of history" because he never finished his education and is still technically a student.
