Speaking of off the wall, DOGE was always a cockamamie idea destined to failure - and it did. Reports on https://doge.gov stopped mid-August. Reports are that it no longer exists - it just faded away into the sunset, or buried like cat crap.

So efficient, it just ceases to exist when no longer needed. No fanfare, no extra cost.  Just gone. Poof!

DOGE was such a joke. No attempts at efficiency were ever made. They just fired people. There's a difference.

Surprise, the Trump T1 phone was another grift

The phone was supposed to be released in August. But three months later, there are no signs that the phone has become a reality.

Quiet edits to the Trump Mobile website suggest that details around the phone’s design and production may have changed since it was announced.

The website removed any mention of “Made in the USA,” as was originally promised. Instead, the website now says the phone is “brought to life right here in the USA."

While Trump Mobile customers wait for the T1, the company is offering other phones for sale, including refurbished iPhones (which are primarily produced in China) and devices from Samsung, a Korean company. Trump Mobile says that both devices are “brought to life right here in the USA.”

The Trump Mobile website has scrubbed any mention of a specific release month, but continues to collect $100 down payments on the promise of availability “later this year.”

Slap some gold paint on an old iphone and I guess you've brought it to life right here in the USA.

@shooter I might be living in a bubble, but I don't know a single person who has ever bought a single Trump product. Is anyone actually buying a Trump phone, Bible or shoes? I honestly have no idea who would spend money on such obvious grifts, but I'm guessing they're out there.

dbm always posted that everything sold out in like 24 hours.

I mean, I guess that's possible. I just can't imagine who's shelling out money for that stuff. Who looks at a Trump phone and, given the abject failure of everything else Trump has ever bought or sold, think it's a good idea to get one?

dbm has a room full of it along with a Trump flag.

They haven't released phone subscription numbers.  They brag about the shoes, Bible, and crypto sales

No one has ever cashed in on his Presidency like he has. Up about $3.5 billion in the past year. How much does a billionaire need you might ask. More, says the President. He might even add $230 million direct from the taxpayers because he felt picked on.

The most amazing thing about all that is not that he so brazenly does it, it's that for the most part no one really cares enough to do anything about it.

Fan of the Rush Hour movies? Apparently, the President is and may have pressured Paramount to do Rush Hour 4. I liked the first one but honestly don't know if I've seen 2, 3 or 4. Probably 2. Jakie Chan and Chris Tucker are still with us but getting old. Story will need to take age into the equation.

Not really off the wall since it's pretty much SOP for the President, but have we ever had a more thin-skinned person in the office?

Sane Presidents just don't say/do things like this:

"The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him. I am hereby canceling all Executive Orders and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally. Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" -- Trump "Truth"
