    Vince is literally just a more self aware trump ,I don’t know why he never ran for president

    He legit had everything trump had ,the money ,the racism , the “charisma” and his understanding of kayfabe ,hell kayfabe is literally his thing ,he’s partially responsible for it’s existence and unlike trump he was willing to make himself the but of the joke ,I feel like Trump although he can be aware sometimes has too big an ego to do that

      There’s probably enough dirt on Vince to bury the Grand Canyon, moreso than Trump. Trump’s crimes are hidden behind a veil of high society secrets. Vince was doing lowbrow carny shit all the time. Vince also has a weird homoerotic fixation on the male physique, I wouldn’t put it past him to abuse a male wrestler or two. This would be absolutely disqualifying in R field. He’s legit one of the most unhinged person who ever lived.

    She also spent a lot of money on two senate campaigns only to lose both times. Of course, in the US if you’re rich and know the right people, you can only fall upwards, even if you think AI is called A1.

    that’s how you know america is the greatest country on earth. in other countries they use nerds who went to school to be in charge of shit. don’t you remember nerds from school? they suck! plus if my boss gets to pay me less money, he has more money to pay me a higher wage with. think about it, it’s basic economics

      Am reminded once again of the scene in Chernobyl where Evil BadmanMcStooge says “I used to make shoes, now I’m the CEO of the factory. Cheers” and that’s of course bad because he’s a bad man and he should have just stuck to making shoes know your place damn peasant

    You ever think about how the company was run by a sexpest misogynistremoved whose last name is literally pronounced “McMan”? And how when the story broke he had a makeover that made him look like a stereotypical telenovela sexpest villain?
    This universe is written by fucking hacks. An Italian whose last name is “greed” kills a “healthcare CEO”??? If I put this in a writing exercise as a child, my teacher would have bullied me

      I think it still exists - only Congress can abolish a department within the administration. But all the DOE functions are practically gutted by the executive order
