Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Monday, September 22, 2025

Donald Trump, the US president vying so hard for a Nobel Peace Prize that he renamed the US Department of Defense to the Department of War and issued a warning to Chicago referencing Apocalypse Now, has now bragged about ending another war " except this one never actually happened. Speaking at the American Cornerstone Institute's Founders' Dinner at Mount Vernon, Virginia on Saturday, the Republican boasted about his administration's work on a number of issues, including teasing an "announcement on autism" on Monday which comes after health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr vowed to find its cause "by September". But on peace deals, after mentioning the agreement he brokered between Armenia and Azerbaijan, he said: "We settled that war that was not settleable, as the expression goes. "Cambodia and Armenia, that was just starting, and it's a bad one " think of that."

And lest we forget: the LaLa War between Shambala and Shangri-La.

With the rain in Shambala
Wash away my sorrow, wash away my shame
With the rain in Shambala

Trump claims he ended a war - between countries that are 4,000 miles apart
www.the-independent.com

... If you haven't heard of the Armenian-Cambodian conflict, that's okay, because neither has anyone else -- other than President Donald Trump, who claims to have ended the supposedly brewing clash.

During the American Cornerstone Institute's Founders' Dinner at the Mount Vernon estate in Virginia Saturday, Trump again rattled off his peacemaking resume, the latest push in his desire to win a Nobel Peace Prize.

One of the wars he mentioned ending was a conflict between "Cambodia and Armenia."

The president did not elaborate on what allegedly set leaders in capitals Phnom Penh and Yerevan -- which are 4,150 miles apart -- against each other, but he assured the crowd that war "was just starting, and it was a bad one." ...

"We've got a lot of stupid people in this country running things."

~ President Trump, speaking to reporters this afternoon ~

It's one of those rare times the rotting orange pedo utters the truth.

He definitely doesn't know what percent is, can't pronounce the name of the drug he claims causes autism and yet he is hailed as a genius by half of America.

See Carlo M. Cipolla, "The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity" (gandalf.fee.urv.cat).

1. Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

2. The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.

3. A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.

4. Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.

5. A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.
Corollary: a stupid person is more dangerous than a pillager.
