10 TIMES TRUMP THINGS IN 10 DAYS
Yes, I have something to say about Donald again. Not in the mood? Then just click here here, you will find a list of other crappy things that are really bad. Week number one of President Trump is already over and the only thing I honestly think is: What. The. Fuck. Pardon my language. Never has there been such a tumultuous first week for a president. Here are ten Trump things in ten days:
1. Melania's look
The memes about the Trump family keep pouring in. There was also an internet hit during Donald's inauguration about his wife Melania. I find it funny, sorry.
2. More Melania and The Wall
Because there was plenty to say about the cover of The First Lady for the Mexican Vanity Fair. It was quite surprising that, of all people, she was on the cover of a magazine in a country where her husband is currently causing a diplomatic crisis. Within a few months, Donald claims he wants to start building the wall along the Mexican border. What will that cost? They say somewhere between 8 and 30 billion dollars.
3. Women’s March
The day after Trump's inauguration, protest marches were organized worldwide in dozens of places. Amsterdam also participated. American media sources also indicated that there were three times as many people present for the protest in Washington D.C. than the day before at Trump's inauguration.
4. And now that we're talking about visitor numbers…
But according to (dump that) Trump, those low visitor numbers are all bullsh*t. Team Trump talks about ‘alternative facts’. Thanks again Kellyanne Conway, for the use of the funniest tweets.
5. Abort abortions
No more subsidies for international aid organizations for performing abortions and providing information about them. Signature signed and the tap turned off.
6. Lubach, applause for you
I think more people have seen this brilliant video from ‘Zondag bij Lubach’ than the inauguration of the new president.
7. Dakota Pipeline
Maybe you've seen footage of environmental activists who have been protesting for months against the construction of these pipelines. Actors Shia LaBeouf and Shailene Woodley have even both been arrested during the protests. Trump's potential oil supply runs through an area inhabited by Native Americans, creating a high chance that their drinking water will become contaminated. Initially, there were plans to adjust the route (Trump's plans), but now it turns out the plan for the ‘Dakota Access’ was initiated by energy company ETP. Right, the friends of.
8. Voter fraud
Press secretary Sean Spicer claims that illegal votes were cast in the states where Trump lost to Clinton. This would explain why Clinton received three million more votes than Trump, but still lost the election because he won the key states. They have no evidence for this claim. It must be something with alternative facts again.
9. Waterboarding
A possible repeal of a controversial torture method has been discussed. This interrogation technique was banned by former President Barack Obama. This method was still used before the Obama era in the fight against terrorism. The suspect thinks they are drowning.
10. The Muslim Ban
No Muslim refugees allowed into the country, that’s what Trump wants. Allowing Syrian refugees is seen as harmful, so the admission program is being adjusted. Visa applications are blocked for ninety days for visitors from Syria, Iran, Sudan, Iraq, Libya, and Yemen. This was also the topic of discussion during the SAG Awards last Sunday, with a brilliant speech by Mahershala Ali.
