The United-States of White Trash America

Hoping Mother Nature intervenes on the disgraceful display planned by the felon.

I mostly just scroll on past NPR bullshittery but jfc I never imagined they would become this stupid.

It's a national embarrassment and @npr.org needs to grow some dignity and stop lying about this. Trump doesn't do anything for anyone but himself. He's throwing a big special birthday party for himself with our taxes. Stop lying for him.

Yeah the framing of this is horse shit. This is not what's happening.

My god that’s ugly

Any cabinet members being put in the cage? Members of Congress? Just asking....

PATHETIC.

Caesar Caligula’s big boy 80th birthday will feature blood sports and monster trucks because we are living in Idiocracy.

But where are the clowns? Quick, send in the clowns. Don't bothеr, they're therе.

In what way do cage fights “honor” the nations’s 250th birthday??

Well, historical in a trashy way anyhow.

"In honor" - uh, no.

Douche

Seriously NPR? Like, really, really? This is not being done to honor our nation's history. Any spin on this grotesque display of narcissism is unacceptable and certainly not a high standard of journalism.

No mention of Trump family stablecoin's insinuation into the event. More Trump deflection from gas prices, his idiotic war, rising inflation, GOP election rigging. He's also boosting the myth of alpha males as toxic masculinism rises and women's rights to vote and breathe are threatened.

@npr.org This isn't related to the 250th anniversary; it's about the grift and this orange fuck profiting. Be better.

Are you abandoning real journalism, NPR? Your title sounds like Trump propaganda. This has nothing to do with America's 250th anniversary. This is all about Trump's ego, and Trump's ego only.

🤣🤪🤣🤪

why is npr repeating this total lie: "in honor of the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary"

Oh @npr.org , did you really have to use the word honor?

I don't know if I've ever been so proud!

It's a fun celebration. You know, like fireworks or a concert.

I think Donald should be applauded for staging such a spectacle on June 14 which, as we all know, is Obama Appreciation Day. Well done Donald !

It's definitely not 'an honor' .

You spelled 80th birthday party wrong.

A national embarrassment.

Really NPR???? You should be better than this!

JFC. Imagine thinking this is cool.

Historic would not be my word choice. @npr.org it would be better to close the place down then continue trying to please people who only accept complete fealty. Beware the ghost of Bob Edwards.

Call it what it is NPR.....

8647

This is fucking stupid. You should have included that as part of the headline here.

Not in honor of anything but the fat orange turd

Y'all at @npr.org need to check yourself regarding how this nauseating event of self celebration is framed.

This is an abomination and a perversion. It’s so gross.

I don’t understand why this is event is not taking place in the courtyard at the Department of War. It does seem like that would be the most suitable location.

Are you state media now?

Historic? 😂 That’s one way to describe it. Do better, NPR.

What a dishonor to the Presidency…and a national treasure. It can’t be good that a man with such a fragile ego is running the country.

🤮🤮🤮

White trash bash

Hey, NPR. It's not in honor of our nation's 250th anniversary. It's the wish of our dementia-ridden wannabe emperor to honor HIM on his birthday. Cage fights have nothing to do with our history, everything to do with trashy Trump. Please get the narrative right just once!

Who the hell writes your headlines? This does no honor to the nation's upcoming birthday. It is simply done to assuage Trump's massive ego.

Next week… dog fights!

This is who he seems to trying to be but the president from Idiocracy was actually a smarter and more reasonable man. Oh, and he was in better shape and had a better wig. And wasn’t an accused pedophile. Anyway…

There's supposed to be thunderstorms. If there's a lightning strike, I'll agree to be agnostic.

I could get behind this if one of these cage matches actually included Trump as a participant with his arch rival

Not our America 😣

No, it’s for the spoiled brat toddler’s birthday. America wants nothing to do with it.

Wake me when he's fucking dead.

WTF, NPR? A for-profit shit show on the grounds of the People's House? In front of the rubble of the historic East Wing? This honors NOTHING.

No

Stop. This has nothing to do with America 250 and you at NPR know it. This is about one special boy and his crass, crude birthday celebration. He is using our military and monuments as props! Don’t sane-wash this bs.

TRASH Just say it IT’S TRASH 🚮

"Trump's UFC fights bring historic spectacle to White House": this isn't historic spectacle, it's a historic embarrassment. What were you thinking, NPR?

How do half-naked men beating up each other honor our nations 250th birthday, except to put on a tacky show for the orange pedo turning 80.

SO DISAPPOINTED WITH NPR COVERAGE OF THE NEWS!!! THEY DRANK THE MAGA KOOLAID! DON'T USE THEM FOR A SOURCE OF REAL NEWS ANYMORE!!!

Cage fights don’t honor anything. They dishonor the country.

Increasingly a metaphor for access to healthcare, education and economic mobility in the US. It can stop being a fight if we can stop making it one.

Trump is jealous that the 250th anniversary is getting attention, so he's throwing a birthday party for himself at taxpayers' expense, continuing his defilement of the White House in the process.

What time do the women fight??

Yeah sure in "honor" of the nations 250 anniversary blah, blah, blah...

Those fighters, exerting themselves in the heat and humidity of a Washington, D.C. summer will develop heat exhaustion. They will wilt and fail after twenty minutes. It the D.C. humidity, sweating doesn't cool you because it doesn't evaporate.

Sorry, NPR, this is no "honor." A baseball game, I might see. Fireworks, yes. A concert by the National Symphony? Sure. But a bunch of "adults" acting out a script to beat each other up is something we should rise above as a nation.

Republicans are dumb. Trump is a cult leader.

Can we stop with the misleading header? They are about a narcissist’s birthday. If they were for the 250th they would be around July 4.

Honor!! Ha! They know nothing of honor.

Do better NPR. Nothing about this honors our country. It’s a birthday party.

WTF is this headline? This is Trump's birthday party. Stop pretending this crap has anything to do with America.

That moment when your sarcasm intersects accidentally with Lindsey Graham... Not sure whether to congratulate myself or do the walk of shame

OMG. I forgot that one. The horror. The horror.

I wouldn't be surprised if today's ridiculous circus spectacle is 47's auditions for his next insurrection. 😡

Hey, NPR, you should really get Taco's dick out your mouth before you keep posting.

Dude- explain how this trash honours the country. Go ahead try. We're waiting. You're just collaborationist scum now- what happened?

How does this *honor* the founding of our nation?

@npr.org this is an embarrassing article covering a national embarrassment. unfortunately i rarely listen to the npr politics podcast anymore because i can’t deal with the milquetoast reporting and analysis. the government funding is gone, so it seems especially ridiculous to walk a careful line…

"..in honor of the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary." This is no honor. It's a self-serving, shame-filled, self-birthday present that desecrates The People's House.

So, we've gone full Roman Empire with gladiator fights to entertain the emperor, unbelievable.

Honor?

No. Not in honor of the 250th. This is a corrupt, self-dealing, self-aggrandizing stage for our toddler-in-chief. Do better, NPR.

“Historic”

So NPR has sold out too

The purpose has nothing to do with the anniversary. That’s the stupidest lie ever. It trump’s birthday. Costing 1.5 million for vip tickets. Where is that money going would be a good storyline

occ witchhunt think! jesus was is the most famous infamous psychotic over brimming with godliness, not a one god, not the god, not anymore than any other many similar mentally broken. it matters a lot to me and it connects undergirds all in the usa. laurence odonnell: any of the docs psychiatrists?

You spelled "dishonor" wrong.

"in honor of"

@npr.org do better

I get that this insane shit is news-worthy but that doesn't mean ya'll have to glaze it just to be "neutral". :/

Gross. Get off our lawn.

Gross in the extreme and simply no way this is an “honor.” NPR I am ashamed of you

Lol NPR

Americans remember when we had a REAL President. Thank you for your service, President Obama.

Pray for bad weather tonight in D.C. and lots of rain

#WhiteTrashWhiteHouse

NPR is crap now. I stopped my donations.

Liberals have become tut-tutting old ladies aghast at the impropriety of people having fun.

How does that honor our anniversary?

A circus is what you'd expect with a clown show like Trump's. But where's the bread? Is this not Rome?

Pretty totally shit headline there, auditioning for the next Ellison buyout?

"in honor of.."!?! Come on, you know that's not true

Are you sure it's in honor of the US and not just for certain someone's entertainment?

Spectacle is certainly a word here

Nothing celebrates democracy and our continual fight for actual freedom and justice for all like…two people beating the shit out of each other in a cage. Congrats, America, we’ve jumped the shark. 🤦🏻‍♀️😩

Stop sane washing this. This is revolting!

Nobody is watching

"In honor?!?!?!" WTF is this headline @npr.org ?

The pertinent number is 8647.

weirdos

Gross

'How 'bout those USA Marines?' From the Halls of Montezuma...to the Shores of Tripoli... to the White House Lawn...for a Tractor Pull Event.' What the Fuckity Fuck?

Let's check out the forecast for tonights' debacle:

When traveling, I tell people I’m from Canada

This is why I stopped supporting npr during tRump’s first run for president. As a sibling said, “of all the losses bc of tRump coverage, leaving npr hurt the most” As we were about to find out-that wouldn’t be the loss that hurt the most.
