The Sunday Bottom 5
A ranking of some things.
1. Donald Trump – Sunday Bottom 5 pollsters “strongly suspect” Trump’s next geographical edict will change name of country to People’s Republic of Amerika.
2. Volodymyr Zelenskyy – Ukrainian president berated in Oval Office by President Trump for forcing Russia to invade it three (3) years ago, tho Zelenskyy’s motive remains unclear …Zelenskyy earns further US ire by refusing to drop second “y” from end of last name.
3. People’s Republic of Amerika – The new 3-hole staple, replacing USA! USA! as we slide into a Trump/Musk dictatorship…Amerika completely off its rocker now, siding with Russians, alienating old allies, and smacking around a good man trying to save his country.
4. 2026 Midterm Elections – Sunday Bottom 5 pollsters “pretty sure” elections will go off as scheduled, but not entirely sure and, be honest, you probably aren’t entirely sure either, as Amerika might be a nice little dictatorship by then.
