Dear President* Trump: People Are Laughing at You

Hey, dotard. People are laughing at you, man. From ShareBlue:

In his remarks, Trump tried to hold back the criticism, describing Puerto Rico as “an island surrounded by water. Big water. Ocean water.

Some Other Places Surrounded By Big Water, Ocean Water:

Guadalcanal.

New Guinea.

Tarawa.

Saipan.

Iwo Jima.

Sicily.

Some Places You Have To Reach Via Big Water, Ocean Water.

North Africa.

Italy.

Normandy.

Southern France.

Inchon.

Somehow, if I recall my History Channel correctly, American presidents managed to get a lot of people and equipment to all these places despite having to get the people and equipment there via Big Water, Ocean Water.

I knew it was a mistake to laugh at Dan Quayle. We were just tempting the gods.
