Trump Hears About Rob Reiner Murder, Makes It About Himself

fter a shocking double murder, President Trump went straight to Truth Social to attack the dead man, diagnosing Rob Reiner with “Trump Derangement Syndrome” instead of offering condolences. Even Trump allies recoiled, calling the post indecent. Then, as if that wasn’t enough for one day, Trump filed a ten billion dollar lawsuit against the BBC over a January sixth documentary that never aired in the U.S., insisting his words that day were “beautiful.” From blaming a murder victim to suing a foreign broadcaster in Florida, Trump once again proved that no story is too tragic or too international to bend back toward himself.   Come for the sass, stay for the sanity—and blame the A.I. for the jokes that don’t land.

Trump Halts Oval Office Meeting for Shoe-Size Roast as JD Vance Spills Wild Christmas Party Story

Vice President JD Vance says President Trump once stopped an “important” Oval Office meeting to announce a more pressing topic — “Shoes” — before telling top officials they had “shitty shoes” and whipping out a shoe catalogue he apparently keeps at the Resolute Desk. Trump then asked for everyone’s sizes, used the moment to make a not-so-subtle anatomy joke about a size-seven colleague, and left Vance joking about his own measurements in front of the Second Lady. The tale echoes Trump’s infamous 2016 “no problem” debate line and adds a new chapter to the Rubio-hand saga — now with the former rival serving as Secretary of State and getting roasted for his footwear. Somewhere, a size-seven lawmaker is begging Santa for a quieter December. Come for the sass, stay for the sanity—and blame the A.I. for the jokes that don’t land.
