This is all a distraction.
Apparently he's decided to build a heliport on the South Lawn.
We're going to need a new White House when this all over.
Could always invite the Canadians over, I'd be happy to burn down the Whitehouse again
i can cater. y'all want sassages or ribs? y'know what let's do both
Put some poutine in the white house instead of Putin
Should smell real with all the painted-over cum and blood on the walls.
Now, if only the Canadians had actually done such a thing
Nah, torch the thing to the ground and build "The People's House" on its ashes.
How about just a park
I could have sworn it was technically already a park or something. needs some swings and a slide.
Oh oh oh and the spinny thing, I always loved the spinny thing
I don't know how they could've kept some of the recent rains out of the ruins of the East Wing, so, yeah :(
Our national trap house
