Meloni at Mar-A-Lago

Italian prime minister meets with Trump at Mar-a-Lago

US President-elect Donald Trump had some strong words for Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni as she became the latest world leader to drop in and visit him at Mar-a-Lago.

The discussion must have gone well because Trump hailed her as a "fantastic woman" after it was over.

We all know how quickly Trump can turn on people who don't give him what he wants (just ask Mike Pence), so it says a lot that the president-elect is praising Meloni, giving Americans hope that Italy and the USA will be working well together during Trump's second term in office.

Meloni, who became prime minister in 2022, helped found the country's Brothers of Italy party, which is now the most conservative government to take control there since the days of World War II.

Italy's version of SNL mocking Biden

Italian TV Runs Hilarious Ad Wrecking Biden

"The Italian equivalent of Saturday Night Live just premiered its eighth season, and that premier included a skit full of jokes at President Biden’s expense, namely his obvious, to many, cognitive and physical decline.

The skit shows Biden appearing at his presidential podium, with much hilarity in terms of physical humor as he tries to hold steady and mumble his way through a speech.

Kicking off the skit, comedian Maurizio Crozza lurches his way toward the podium, slowly shuffling and stumbling toward it, but then shooting past it, looking quite out of things. He then eventually makes his way back to the podium, which he holds onto for dear life and as he sways forward and backward, left and right, while mumbling his way through a short speech."

Joe Biden, attacking the World

Joe Biden Trashes Italy’s Giorgia Meloni in Massive Self-Awareness Fail

If you guess that he ranted about threats to “democracy,” which is basically the one-note Democrats continue to desperately play over and over this election cycle, pick up your winnings at the window.

But it was who Biden cited as an example that raised eyebrows. Apparently, he attacked Giorgia Meloni’s rise, insinuating that what “happened in Italy” illustrated the destruction of “democracy” around the globe.

For those keeping score at home, we are now at the point where Democrats will quite literally claim that a democratic election, voted on by the people, is actually a threat to democracy if the “wrong” people win. In this case, Meloni’s right-wing coalition won an overwhelming victory after Italy’s left ran the country into the ground.
