10. A feather in an updraft
Wed May 20, 2026, 08:45 AM

Oil companies know what MAGAs don't know and can't know because they are blinded by the brilliance exuded by President Poopy-Pants: oil is a non renewable resource and supplies are shrinking.

That's right, MAGAs, your precious "black gold" is really "fools gold" and when the only oil left has to be scraped from the earth and refined and refined and refined again, it'll cost $20, maybe more, a gallon if it's even available, and we'll all be buying e-cars from China, the only "superpower" left after Poopy-Pants has ruined America -- to the laughter and applause of the dumbest fu**kng population in the world, his followers, the MAGAs, 10s of millions of them.
