MOSCOW (The Borowitz Report)—Vladimir Putin is "very upset" that the Ukrainian people are far less obedient than Donald J. Trump, Kremlin sources have confirmed.

According to the sources, Trump's four years of ardent toadying left the Russian President emotionally unprepared for the Ukrainians' defiance.

"If I wanted Trump to do something, I'd just snap my fingers and consider it done," Putin reportedly said. "It was wonderful."

Putin's entire plan for invading Ukraine, in fact, was predicated on the false assumption that the Ukrainians "would act like Trump," one source indicated.

"After he invaded, he kept waiting for the Ukrainians to tell him how strong and smart he was," the source said. "When there were no displays of Trumpian sycophancy, his mood darkened."

At a Kremlin meeting over the weekend, Putin's frustration at the Ukrainians for being less obsequious than Trump boiled over, sources said.

"If the President of the United States can abandon democracy and the rule of law, why can't these people?" Putin asked, pounding his desk.

Stephen Colbert had a hilarious take on some of the sanctions and things being done regarding Russia - Netflix will no longer be available, to be replaced by putin's version -  NyetFlix.

Is Putin letting someone live rent-free inside his head?

Does he have his panties in a wad over Hillary or Obama...or FDR?

Or this actually about some other popular cliches used obsessively by the mentally challenged MAGA-cultists when they desperately attempt to be witty?

Trump asks supporters to pay for new plane after emergency landing

2-3 minutes   Invalid Date


Even a blown plane engine is a fundraising opportunity for the former president.

Ex-President Trump is asking his loyal army of supporters to help him buy a new plane after a private plane was forced to make an emergency landing last weekend after one of its four engines malfunctioned.

“My team is building a BRAND NEW Trump Force One,” screamed a mass email sent by Trump’s Save America PAC. “I can’t wait to unveil it for everyone to see.”

“The construction of this plane has been under wraps,” Trump teased. “Not even the fake news media knows about it—and I can’t wait to unveil it for everyone to see.

The email reminded the MAGA faithful about Trump’s glory days when he jetted to campaign events in his personal Trump-branded Boeing 757.

It included a GIF video of a plane taking off and a poll purportedly asking potential donors if they want to receive updates on construction.

The link to the phony poll takes supporters to a link to sign up to make recurring monthly contributions to the former president’s fundraising committee.

The email didn’t mention the snafu that forced a private plane Trump was using to return to a New Orleans airport shortly after takeoff when one of four engines died.

The twice-impeached president   and his aides were given another plane by a GOP donor to return to his Florida resort.

The Trump campaign plane i s mothballed in storage at Stewart Air Field in Newburgh, N.Y.   It reportedly would need extensive repairs to be returned to service.

A Sopwith Camel would be fitting for Trump. He could join the fight in Ukraine.

If the President of the United States can abandon democracy and the rule of law

This is not satire.  It is the truth.
