Trump buried in ridicule for seeking $2 billion for his presidential library

Late Saturday the Washington Post reported that Donald Trump has been telling donors that he is seeking $2 billion to build his presidential library after he leaves office on Wednesday.

The report notes, "The president has told supporters he wants to raise $2 billion for the library — a far greater sum than has been raised for past presidential libraries — and thinks he can collect it in small-dollar donations from his grass-roots supporters."

Needless to say, critics were both stunned at the amount and found the idea of a Trump Presidential Library -- reportedly to be built in Florida, --hilarious and they were quick to mock the president who is notable for refusal to read even simple memos while he was in office.

The merch room will take up most of the trailer.

8. ".......most of the trailer."

I see what you did there!

[kentuck]

4. It's just a grift to get money to pay off his debts.

What would a $2billion Trump Library contain??

His supporters are the gift that keeps on giving. He is relying on it.

[kacekwl]

6. Just remember potential doners. Give trump the money

you'll end up with 10 books he stole from the White House in a abandon pizza hut.

[Kid Berwyn]

7. For this?

Yeah, OK.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

9. Are there not enough abandoned corner gas stations about in Florida?

Who needs acres of land for a library that won't have much in it to begin with?

$2 Billion for a vanity project? His supporters are that stupid.

10. Never a prez. Never a library, no fucking way.

Let’s just throw the book at him.

Over and over and over.

[Lucky Luciano]

He went to my high school. He was a nice guy at the time, but his job prospects never went greater than selling paint at Home Depot. Well, he was tr$&’s golf caddy and must have kissed ass really well...so he outperformed expectations.

Bekah Mercer at my school, OTOH, was genuinely academically gifted as were her sisters. Robert Mercer is probably the best data scientist in the world. What he accomplished is no small feat. Too bad they are evil to the core. They were middle class at the time with Robert still at IBM when I knew them.

Bekah never associated with scavino. She usually only spoke to other honors class kids...not the dim ones. Quite the coincidence that they are allies now.

12. What would be on the shelves?

Mein Kampf, The Turner Diaries, Protocols of the Elders of Zion?

[Totally Tunsie]

27. Menu boards from McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, KFC, etc.

Does he eat pizza too?

[Danmel]

28. With a knife and fork

Like a real New Yorker 🙄

[Archetypist]

14. Just another grift

He owes tons of money and this is yet another way he can exploit his position.

[Shermann]

15. I assume there will be a whole wing for peer-reviewed papers by climate skeptics?

Or just an aisle?

Or just a bookshelf?

Eh, just throw them on microfiche. They don't need the reader, nobody reads them anyway. They just need to exist in some form to support the false equivalences.

16. If it were ever to be built, I'll hazard a guess it would be...

...the ONLY library most of his drooling, knuckle-dragging worshippers would ever go to. I’m sure most of them don’t read much of anything.

[NCjack]

17. $2,000,000 to provide salaries and consultant fees to the

worst grifters in the Trump Administration and its hanger-ons. The final product will be something like a pup tent in the parking lot of a worn-out shopping mall in a Red state. Perfect for MAGAts who want to own a piece of Trump history. But, they would never use their tiny fractional ownership to justify trashing, pissing, shitting, and otherwise vandalizing the place -- nothing at all like what they did to the U.S. Capitol Building.

29. It could be an empty tent at the seediest truck stop in North America but if Donald Koresh told

the faithful that every penny of the $2B was needed to create such a tremendous museum, they’d believe every word.

[ecstatic]

18. "tRump library" oxymoron

My head is about to explode just thinking about it.

[marmar]

20. Why? It's almost complete.

[rdmtimp]

22. It will consist entirely of back issues of...

Playboy, Penthouse, Hustler.

[edhopper]

23. What town would possibly host this!

Moscow?

[Politicalgolfer]

24. Can't they just put up a....

....book shelf at that gaudy whore house they call a golf club in Florida where he goes to snort stuff up his nose, view porn & cheat at golf?

[lunatica]

25. He can use his tweets as wallpaper

His MAGAts will read them and remember the good old days.

[Initech]

26. The exhibits will mostly be tweets and golfing.
