Trump is back in defilade while he pretends to be leading the charge.

The rest of the world has told him to fuck right off, so he "suspended" the tariffs on everybody but China for 90 days. Of course he raised the China tariffs to avoid losing face (although why he wouldn't want to lose that ugly orange face is beyond me), but China is unlikely to budge, since it doesn't want to lose face either, and Xi doesn't have to worry about midterms. Fact is, though, he blinked, no matter how he and Baghdad Barbie try to spin it.

Boatload order of feminine hygiene products I placed because they are manufactured in Canada, and I am trying to stock up.

If you hear that I've been arrested on the street for selling singles panty liners, don't be surprised.

If only I could get closer to "someone's" food, I'd be adding a magic potion to a beverage. It would not, however, be in the hope of having them fall in love.

RESIST!!

as he shames and embarrasses the nation even further (all the while, Putin sits in his overstuffed villain's chair, twirls his moustache and gives an aside to Tulsi how much fun he had playing with puppets when he was kid)
