The Smithsonian’s newly appointed secretary recalled a bizarre moment during President Donald Trump’s private tour of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in 2017.
Narcissus walked by a pool of water and decided to drink some. He saw his reflection, became entranced by it, and killed himself because he could not have his object of desire.
Is there a National Museum of Reflecting Pools that Trump might want to visit?
Yeah I posted a link to this story this morning because the other day there were people saying they wanted him to visit Auschwitz when (or if) he goes to Poland.
What a fucking waste of time that would be and a terrible disrespect to the memories of the people who suffered there.
It’s just always all about HIM and nothing and nobody else ever.
We must assume that when he sees the Holocaust museum, he’ll pipe up and cheerily say, did you know that my grandfather was German? Great people, those Germans!
He told the boy scouts dirty stories. He’s preceded every foreign visit with a fight with the person he was going to see on the way over on the phone. Every time
And then there are the disasters and the paper towels and the ‘when will it end’ and on and on I can’t remember or list all of it because his every breath is inappropriate and an affront to nature.
Fun fact for today: They do not love him in The Netherlands.
According to a 2017 survey, U.S. President Donald Trump was not particularly well-liked among the Dutch. Nine out of ten respondents to a 2017 survey stated to consider Trump arrogant. Moreover, nearly 80 percent of respondents thought him intolerant, and just under 70 percent said Trump was dangerous. Trust in his capacities was low accordingly: another survey the same year found that just four percent of respondents had some sort of trust in the president.
