Some Funny Ha-Ha and Funny Strange posts about Trump's parade and the No Kings protests, plus how it feels to cut off America

I don't know who get AI to do this, but isn't it great!  The MacDonald's "medals" in particular. 

Looks like its going to rain on Trump's parade. With any luck...

People are talking about the parade tonight on social media, plus about the thousands of "No King" marches around the world

I'm finding some funny-haha comments on social media, and some funny-strange comments too.

Funny-haha

I’m 50-50 Trump is going to show up at his military parade tomorrow in a Muammar Gaddafi uniform and just go full Borat.

I just emerged from the deep state woke Marxist meeting to control the weather for tomorrow’s small dictator parade. I can report things are on track and we are ready for space laser deployment. More soon.

While the National Guard and Marines are just standing around doing nothing in California, maybe they could pick up some trash or hand out food at a food bank.

Canada could give America some advice about real kings:

Boston's No Kings parade tomorrow would have clashed with the Pride Parade so the city has decided to lump everything together and call it "NO KINGS, but YAAAAS Queen!" Go Boston!

Some perspective here:

Oh, you're doomscrolling current events? That's baby shit. I'm doomscrolling the events of 536. A volcano just erupted in Iceland. Snow just fell during the summer in China. Crops are failing. All of the crops are failing.

Funny Strange
And after all the ICE raids and misery to immigrants, Trump briefly mutters "never mind"...

“…And don’t forget to leave a mint on my pillow on your way out.”

But then things quickly revert to "normal" .  I read a figure tonight that the ICE has already "disappeared" 100,000 people. Its absolutely appalling.

 

here’s the fun part: both can be, and probably are, true

Those fucking Republican fools staying silent right now think this fascist shit won’t come for them too. You dumbfucks. Open a history book. It’s not if. It’s when.

Next, here's a uniquely Canadian view about staying home

Paul Wells

O beautiful
I've never known how to be Canadian without being partly American. This year has felt like an amputation.
....When some visiting Europeans ask, politely but with a note of scorn, whether this elbows-up stuff is a rational response to the rantings of an addled U.S. President, I have to answer: Of course it isn’t rational.
... When Donald Trump was re-elected, Canadians were surprised and concerned, more or less like people in a lot of other places. There was no particular reason for the Canadian reaction to go further than that. Even if he had simply imposed his stupid tariffs on Canada the same as on other places, it would have been a mechanical application of bad policy and not worth any emotional response.
But when the twice-elected President of the United States of America spends months on end telling anyone who’ll listen that my country doesn’t deserve to exist, and that message is amplified in the White House Briefing Room and on the border by the lipsticked Junior Brownshirt who adorns his surreal cabinet, my pretty strong response is: Let me help you out with your homeland security. I’ll stay home, thanks. You go ahead and stew in your own juices.
There’s not just anger in the response, or wounds to a national pride I haven’t always known I had in me. There’s something tragic in there too. Americans do tragedy in excess they do everything else. We’re talking about a country that fought a civil war because a critical mass of people would rather fight a war than lose their slaves. Even as it was becoming a powerful force for good in the world, America has also always been a venue for horror. Both at the same time. Now its federal government is led by a man who says it’s “divisive” to study that contrast and learn from it.
This weekend, once again, the factions in the American drama will face off in American streets. I wish I could help the good guys. Most Canadians I know put their whole heart into the way they feel about the United States. We’re a little afraid of it, but mostly we’re worried for it.

And Monday, Trump will be here for the G7. That'll be fun, won't it:

Chrétien, speaking Thursday at a conference in Calgary, said leaders can’t predict what Trump might do, the president can be a bully and it would be best if the rest of the G7 leaders ignored any outbursts #cdnpoli #G7 https://t.co/qt2VWVn4Do

They should serve tacos at the the G7.
