He should get a medal saying "cleverest and bestest person of the entire universe". Hold that thought. Wondering what the stupidest thing is, which people could bring him pride in accepting

Not enough propaganda. They should call it 'Beautiful, Clean, Greenest of the Green, Climate Protecting, Bird Saving, Woke Antifa Tears Inducing, All-American, Beef Loving, Lungs Restoring Coal'.

I could pay for naming a star in the past. I wonder if that grift still exists. Imagine what an oil company could get away with if they gave him a certificate showing that a star is named after him.

Then I remembered that he's a little bitch. TACO.

I wonder what the bribees gets in exchange for this made up trophy that means nothing.

Read the news. Extended life for coal power plants, upgrades, department of war signing contracts for buying coal energy etc.

Department of ’war’ has stepped up its war on the planet
