President Trump: Build Up That Death Star!
BY: Sonny Bunch
February 22, 2017 2:10 pm

Big news people: We are almost definitely still alone not alone! According to the Science™: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2017/02/22/nasa-announcement-live/
Quote
    Life may have evolved on at least three planets in a newly discovered solar system just 39 light years from Earth, NASA has announced.

    Astronomers have detected no less than seven Earth-sized worlds orbiting a cool dwarf star known as TRAPPIST-1.

Wow! Seven planets that definitely do not have life on them because we are alone in the cold miserable universe could support life! That's crazy. Of course, we need to keep our eye on the prize here:


Quote
Comfortably Smug@ComfortablySmug

Planet e looks like a haven for terrorists and the one we should liberate first. Planet f is definitely full of terrifying space monsters

The simple fact of the matter is that if there is life on other planets we are now in a deadly race to either kill or be killed. And this is why we need Donald Trump to take drastic action right now.

That's right: It's time to build a Death Star.

Now look, I know what you're thinking. "That's evil," "You're dumb," "This isn't the movies, Sonny, grow up." Stuff like that. Well, first off, it's not evil, it's prudent. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/act-four/wp/2015/10/29/the-destruction-of-alderaan-was-completely-justified/ Second off, YOU are dumb. (Check and mate, friendo.) Third off, well, how do we know this isn't a movie? Are you sure about that?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBvIweCIgwk

Look, there are lots of reasons to build a Death Star. Leave aside its necessity for interplanetary defense and think of all the jobs it would create. You want to make America great again, President Trump? You want to increase the labor force participation rate? Well, I've got a great way for you to do that: How about a 160-kilometer space station weighing 134 quadrillion tons built entirely with American-made products? Yeah, that'll keep those unemployment numbers down.

Plus, you can stick it to that nerd Barack Obama, a quisling who refused to do what was necessary to keep America safe from the threat of Planet E by preemptively rejecting the need to build a space station capable of traveling across parsecs to deal death in the name of the American people. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2013/01/12/white-house-rejects-death-star-petittion/?utm_term=.07046ccbaf2f

Will this plan be popular with the American people? You bet your ass it will be! https://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/death-star-petition-requires-white-house-response Tons of people want to see this thing built! You want to restore pride in America? You want to keep her people safe? You want to make an example out of Planet E to inspire the fear needed to keep the other six planets in line after you dissolve the Senate in 2018?

And, as a bonus, once we've eliminated the intergalactic threat once and for all we can decommission the Death Star, retool it as a luxury vacation property, and rebrand it as, you guessed it: The Trump Star.

Classic win-win-win!

Well. Except for Planet E, of course:

President Trump Has Lunch With The Pope

President Trump invited the Pope for lunch on his mega yacht, the Pope accepted and during lunch, a puff of wind blew the Pontiff's hat off, right into the water.

It floated off about 50 feet, then the wind died down and it just floated in place.

The crew and the secret service were scrambling to launch a boat to go get it, when Trump waved them off, saying "Never mind, boys, I'll get it."

The Donald climbed over the side of the yacht, walked on the water to the hat, picked it up, walked back on the water, climbed into the yacht, and handed the Pope his hat.

The crew was speechless. The security team and the Pope's entourage were speechless.

No one knew what to say, not even the Pope.

But that afternoon, NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, CNN reported:

"TRUMP CAN'T SWIM"

A black man and a white man, both first-time fathers, are pacing nervously in the maternity ward waiting room when a nurse rushes out of the delivery room holding a newborn black baby.

The nurse smiles and says, "Now, I wonder who this belongs to?"

The white man laughs and says, "It's probably mine. My wife burns everything."

At a hotel restaurant, a man sees an attractive woman sitting alone at the next table.

Suddenly, she sneezes, and a glass eye comes flying out of her eye socket. It hurls by the man, and he snatches it from the air and hands it back to her.

"This is so embarrassing," the woman says, and she pops her eye back in place. "I'm sorry to have disturbed you. Let me buy dinner to make it up to you. May I join you?" He nods.

The woman is a stimulating conversationalist, stunningly pretty, and the man finds they have a lot in common. He gets her phone number and asks, "You are the most charming woman I've ever encountered. Are you this nice to every guy you meet?"

"No," she replies. "You just happened to catch my eye."
