Unwell Trump Rants About The Song YMCA At The White House

Unwell Trump Rants About The Song YMCA At The White House


Donald Trump went off on a rant and claimed nobody remembers the name NAFTA, which is why he named his trade deal after the Village People’s YMCA.

Trump said, “I’m good at names. USMCA. Like the song “YMCA.” Now everybody says it. They don’t remember the previous name of the bad deal. Commonly known as NAFTA.”





Trump thinks that he is good at names in the same way that a toddler thinks that they are good at hide and seek when they put their fingers over their eyes. USMCA is not a good name for a trade deal. Trump hasn’t come up with a good name for either his programs or his political opponents since he was a candidate. Trump is still trying to make “Sleepy” Joe a thing, even though Biden is more active in a day than Trump is in a month.

The president is clearly not well. He sounded drugged as he slurred his words, snorted, and breathed heavily during his statement on Iran.

Trump has blown past the standard of not presidential behavior and descended to not normal human behavior.

The White House won’t tell the American people, but there is overwhelming circumstantial evidence that something appears to be wrong with this president.

go to sleep every night. When they wake the next morning, their minds have been wiped and are ready to absorb another day's worth of trump vomit. That's why they seem to not understand they are gaslit AF.

can we start referring to donnie-t as the 'acting president?' clearly the dude ain't well.

25th amendment time and if we thought the guy drive, it would be time for an intervention by plastic-barbie, oday and quasay to take his car driving privileges away.

"Taken at face value, the song's lyrics extol the virtues of the Young Men's Christian Association. However, in the gay culture from which the Village People stemmed, the song was implicitly understood as celebrating YMCA's reputation as a popular cruising and hookup spot, particularly for the younger men to whom it was addressed.

The initial goal of Village People producers Morali and Belolo was to attract disco's gay audience by featuring popular gay fantasy in their music. Although co-creator Morali was gay and the group was initially intended to target gay men, the group became more popular and more mainstream over time."

Of course not. He's simply a wiggling blob of orange gelatin. A pile of useless organic molecules, not fit for any decent person's compost bin.
