Well, My Goodness
Bubba and I just had to get out of the house so we went driving up to Bellville, Texas, to see where the new road construction goes.
Yeah, and we accidentally saw this. Click here to see the big one.
You can’t read it from the picture but they say they will also have tee-shirts, yard signs, and all manner of really disgusting things.
And burgers.
I am certain the burgers will be on white buns and have mustard and cheese running over the edges to match Trump’s complexion. The meat will come from a bull’s ass. There were Trump 2000 signs everywhere. Not many hospitals, I couldn’t help but notice.
That should be HAMBERDERS … not hamburgers!
1And, probably 2020, rather then 2000.
It’s all enough to make any Democrat want to puke!
Well, after his last announcement, we should not have to worry about this till around May 1st.
2Now this, like “the Villages” in florida, should be subjected to a total quarantine.
3As for the villages no extra assistence for them except as many freezer trucks needed for morgues.
They drank the kool aid, they beleived the blowhards about the virus not being any worse then the flu and continued to party until either yesterday or Friday.
They cheeer the addled on when he proposes a few “oldsters” should be sacrificed for the stock market well they should be the first to leap into the volcano.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Well, if they open on Easter, that will be another way to thin the herd.
4Oh, oh, oh…
These people may have screwed up royally. Because if they are using Boss Tweet’s name (and likeness) to make money, he is going to want a cut. Or to shut them down to stop cheapening of the brand.
You could always be neighborly to Cheatolini and notify them that someone is using his name and likeness to make money…
5Correction: Meat won’t come from a bulls ass. Horses ass more acurate
6Neglecting what you saw, it was nice that you and Bubba got a change to get out. I look forward to my daily walk in the neighborhood.
7That a 67 Camaro RS SS with the 396?
8Behind every silver lining…
Historian who correctly predicted last 9 presidential elections: Trump is more likely to lose because of coronavirus
Edit: Lichtman’s system is based on 13 “keys,” a series of true-or-false statements that anticipate whether the incumbent party’s presidential candidate will be elected in a given year. If six or more of the statements are false, the incumbent candidate will lose; if fewer than six are false, he or she will win. While Lichtman’s system is somewhat complicated by elections where there is a split between the popular vote and the Electoral College results, it has otherwise successfully anticipated every presidential election since 1984. (You can see the full list of keys here.)
“There were four keys solidly locked in against the president” prior to the outbreak, Lichtman explained. “It takes six to predict defeat. But this was before [the pandemic]. Key 1: Party mandate. Key 9: Scandal. Key 11: Foreign/military success. Key 12: incumbent charisma. That’s four false keys locked in.”
Lichtman’s analysis is based on the fact that Republicans lost control of the House of Representatives in the 2018 midterms; that Trump has faced a number of scandals during his presidency, including one that led to his impeachment; has had no major military or foreign policy successes; and is neither a military hero nor “charismatic,” a term Lichtman defines to mean a candidate who appeals to large groups of voters outside of his or her party’s usual coalition. Trump’s approval rating has been stuck in the 40s throughout his term and, according to Lichtman, “You can’t call a candidate stuck in that range, appealing only to a minority, a charismatic candidate.”
The coronavirus pandemic, however, may have significantly worsened Trump’s re-election chances, at least according to Lichtman’s analytics.
“The current crisis, which is biological, governmental and societal, puts into jeopardy two additional keys,” Lichtman explained. Those would be “Key 5, the short-term economy — many economists are predicting that we’re going to slide into a recession, or may already be in a recession — and Key 8, the social unrest key. And it makes Key 10, foreign policy or military failure, even more shaky than before.” Lichtman earlier suggested that relations with North Korea and the unstable situation in the Middle East could endanger Key 10 for Trump.
“If any two of those three keys turn against Trump, he is a predicted failure,” Lichtman said. “If zero or one turn against him, he is a predicted winner. I obviously haven’t made a final call yet, since we don’t know how this crisis will ultimately be resolved or not resolved in the upcoming months.”

9I had to go incognito to get the thirteen keys because I use adblocker:
1. Party Mandate: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives than after the previous midterm elections.
2. Contest: There is no serious contest for the incumbent party nomination.
3. Incumbency: The incumbent party candidate is the sitting president.
4. Third party: There is no significant third party or independent campaign.
5. Short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign.
6. Long-term economy: Real per capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms.
7. Policy change: The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy.
8. Social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term.
9. Scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandal.
10. Foreign/military failure: The incumbent administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs.
11. Foreign/military success: The incumbent administration achieves a major success in foreign or military affairs.
12. Incumbent charisma: The incumbent party candidate is charismatic or a national hero.
13. Challenger charisma: The challenging party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero.
10Slipstream saw the same thing I saw in the little picture – 67 Camaro (round front running lights make it a 67)!!!
Made me smile 😉
Lost my smile when I saw the big picture.
11after his last announcement
That was all kayfabe.
Trump has never imposed a social-distancing guideline. In the absence of leadership from the federal government, it fell to foresighted mayors and governors and county health departments to do so piecemeal — indeed, in some benighted places such as Mississippi, there are still no imposed distancing measures.
Instead, Trump ridiculed those who imposed such measures, and suggested that they were unnecessary, a “Democratic hoax” intended as a partisan attack on himself — since, of course, everything is always and only about Donald Trump.
Having not done anything at all to handle the pandemic, and having materially hindered those who were attempting to take measures …
NOW he tries to appear the leader by saying that he will NOT do something : he will not lift the social distancing measures, that he did not impose, and that he has no authority to lift.
Fuck Trump and his enablers.
Fuck our goddamned broken media that fall for these propaganda feints every goddamned time.
I’m so angry I could spit nails.
12Conservatism is a bloody religious cult.
13Wonder how long they will keep the name before The Big Orange One sues for name use.
14May the White house become so infected with the pandemic of LIES, misleading statements, and other delusions that it implodes on itself!
15trump burger? its likely a dog turd served on a scrap of roach eaten cardboard that the stupid believe in….
16Sh*t on a shingle.
17That’s what I would call a burger from that place
Maybe that will be a popular place, but not for long as COVID-19 rampages its way through Texas. Also, Trump will be demanding royalties for the use of his name if he ever finds out that it exists.
18Old Fart @5, however possibly could that ‘brand’ be cheapened anymore than it has by Donnie* and his* 3 eldest ‘kids?’ But you’re correct than the Orange Foolius* will want his* cut of the action; he’ll* probably threaten a lawsuit if the cash register doesn’t have a key to direct money his* way.
Suggested ingredients for those hamberders make the old Roadkill Café jokes sound delicious by comparison. Sort of a soylent green meets disaster flic combo and a hint of where Donnie* and the preying menace Pence intend to hide the bodies.
For those with Twitter accounts who enjoy needling the ***king moron*: #TrumpSpeaksStockMarketDives
19Somebody once opened the restaurant, “Cheeseburger in Paradise” and Jimmy Buffet’s lawyers called. Personally, I don’t see why you couldn’t trademark “Trump Burger” preemptively to keep trump from using it. Declare it the perfect card players’ snack.
(I too noticed that Camaro before anything else and wondered why the pic wasn’t centered)
20The only thing better than Trump being removed by a historical
21landslide would be for the trumpster to also be convicted for the many crimes that he and his henchmen/women have committed against the United States of America! There is no precedent for an ex-pres to be jailed. Nixon had the good graces to go away in exile!
Maybe they’ll make the hamberders out of rat meat. (Apologies to rats everywhere.)
22Drumpf’s gonna see this and demand his cut.
23Along with all the other ingredients, a layer of grated cow patty to give it the true Trump flavor.
24My first thought was they were going to grind him up and make burgers. I think the meat would be greasy.
25I was going to say something about guys who can be diverted from the point of a post by sight of a car they can discuss instead, but then realized that if it had been a picture of a *horse*on that street, I’d have been diverted onto the (non-existent here) Equine Thread, and had to discuss its breed (even its bloodline in some breeds), age, conformation in breed, evidence of training (or lack), and competence of the person holding the reins (driving or riding) as evidenced by the picture, plus of course color and markings.
So go ahead, gentlemen, slide over onto Car-Track any time you see one you can recognize by brand, model, engine type, paint job, placement of head/tail lights, etc, etc. I still won’t learn anything about the car in the picture that way, but I will give a nod to a fellow enthusiast who’s escaped the main topic, even if it’s not my enthusiasm.
