DONALD TRUMP MEMES COLLECTION

There are perhaps hundreds of thousands of political memes devoted to Donald Trump. Most of them are anti-Trump memes, but there are also a lot of pro-Trump memes. I seriously doubt there is any way to see all of them but I thought it would be fun to make an attempt at compiling them. Don't forget to check back from time to time to see the latest additions to the collection.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Says He Was Dancing at a Benefit for Syrian Refugee Children When Journalist Disappeared

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman says he was dancing at a benefit for Syrian refugee children when Saudi journalist, Jamal Khashoggi, disappeared, and released a photograph that he claims proves it. The Prince laughed when skeptics pointed out that the image looked doctored--"Haters are always going to hate." he said. When asked what he thought about the photo, President Trump looked pleased--"I knew it!" he said, "Nobody who spends billions and billions of dollars on weapons is going to go and kill someone. This guy is a really fine human being and you can see he really cares about the kids."

California State Rep. Brad Sherman Has Egg on his Face

Rep. Brad Sherman (D) CA

California State  Rep. Brad Sherman (D) has proposed a ban on cryptocurrencies at a House Financial Services Meeting on February 13, 2018:

"We should prohibit U.S. persons from buying or mining cryptocurrencies," he said. "Mining alone uses electricity which takes away from other needs and-or adds to the carbon footprint. As a store, as a medium of exchange, cryptocurrency accomplishes nothing except facilitating narcotics trafficking, terrorism, and tax evasion."

But, it appears that Mr. Sherman may have other than altruistic reasons for his opposition to the application of block-chain technology to decentralized types of currency: A quick search of Representative Sherman, shows that his biggest campaign contributors for 2017-2018 are Capital Group Companies, Royal Business Bank, and Allied Wallet: all of which are providers of  international banking, investment, and credit card services.

Although Democrats often point fingers at Republicans when it comes to favoring big money and corporate donors, it appears that they themselves are not above the practice. Is it possible Mr. Sherman is working on behalf of his donors who are threatened by the very existence of cryptocurrencies? Representative Sherman, you appear to have egg on your face.

THE COST OF WAR

"The Cost of War" a meme by David Settino Scott - 2015

I decided to celebrate this Memorial Day by creating a meme to express my feelings about the unacceptable cost of war. Mother Earth didn't come with any political borders and, in my opinion, there shouldn't be any. Humans need to learn that we are all in the same boat: a small and fragile boat upon the great sea of the cosmos. If we are going to survive as a race we must pull together all of our collective powers and resources to expand our reaches into the heavens. Waging war only serves to deplete our precious dwindling resources as well as our most precious commodity - human spirit. I don't think it should be necessary to point out the absurdity of killing each other in the name of our respective gods, but it appears there is still a lot of that going on. Let us discourage our young from becoming soldiers when what we really need are explorers.
