    I’ve posted this often in threads about Trump begging for eggs: European diplomats can get their point across succinctly by delivering a few dozen eggs, personally and ballistically, direct to the White House front door.

    Yes, that will get them expelled, but they will get expelled anyway just for saying things Trump doesn’t like. May as well make it count.

      Would be hilarious. Every ambassador who visits the White House just leaves a tray of a dozen eggs from their country on the doorstep.

          It would actually be funnier to leave them as a gift as if Trump can’t afford them.

          No doubt that’d be considered an act of war from the fascists. Then again, doesn’t seem like they really need a reason to bring out the war-speeches.
