Trumpiana: Bold and beautiful — one big bill, one big bully!

The Don touts the scent of masculinity as he celebrates freedom from judicial and Congressional constraints

Bluff, bluster and bullying is the name of the game for the brash real estate mogul from Manhattan. And it worked like a beauty again as a browbeaten Congress delivered his big beautiful bill right before his July 4 deadline.

“The people are happy, they’re happy,” exulted the POTUS as he signed the sweeping domestic policy bill at a White House Independence Day ceremony Friday, flanked by the top Republican lawmakers who helped him muscle it through Congress.

“The largest spending cut, and yet, you won’t even notice it,” Donald Trump bragged while standing with the first lady, Melania Trump, on the White House balcony as B2 bombers, used in the recent bombing of Iran, flew overhead.

As Trump signed the law set to release a sea of $3.3 trillion in red ink over ten years, he coolly glossed over the fact that he had vowed to cut, cut, cut government spending and not safety-net programs.

Donald Trump’s “Godfather Presidency mimicking the mob,” as Vanity Fair called it, had brought him another major victory with the House passing the foot-high big bill by 218 to 214 votes, with all but two Republicans voting in favor after quite a few had savaged it on the floor.

“WOW! 218-2. Has a number like that ever happened before???” chirped the “transactional tough guy,” claiming “no deals” were made in a charm offensive to win over the holdouts after saying at first, maybe he made “a few deals” with some lawmakers.

The victory cementing his “seemingly unlimited control over the Republican Party,” as the New York Times acknowledged, was even sweeter than the one in the Senate where Vice President JD Vance had to step in to break a tie after a free for all “vote-a-rama” session stretching on over 26 hours.

“What a great night it was. One of the most consequential Bills ever. The USA is the “HOTTEST” Country in the World, by far!!!,” declared a triumphant Trump as he set off to take a victory lap Thursday night.

But before that he didn’t forget to brag that he had “brought the price of Eggs back to what they were supposed to be” to calm “the Fake News” that was screaming  about “egg prices having gone through the roof” when he took over on January 20.

In a campaign-style speech at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, a jubilant Trump celebrated himself more than the bill. “Who would have thought there would be this much of a change this fast?” Trump asked the crowd screaming in delight, “I didn’t even think it would happen this fast.”

Keeping up his tirade against Democrats, for the umpteenth time, he charged them with stealing the 2020 election by “cheating and rigging” and bragged that the news media “don’t even turn off the cameras when I say that now,” exclaiming, “now I can say whatever I want.”

The impending passage of the “insane” bill with a massive deficit reignited his feud with ex-first buddy Elon Musk, who vowed to form a new party, “The America Party”, to challenge his “PORKY PIG PARTY!!” before settling on holding a poll first.

But an angry Trump threatened to to turn the cost-cutter DOGE dogs on the ‘Dogefather’ and exile him to his native South Africa, saying, “Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history,” and without those he would “probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa.”

Earlier, as the Senate debated his big beautiful bill through the night, Trump announced the launch of a $250 Presidential perfume that “smells like masculinity.”

“Trump Fragrances are here,” he posted on Truth Social amid posts about tariff revenues and the bill. “They’re called ‘Victory 45-47’ because they’re all about Winning, Strength, and Success.”

Victory 45-47 is the second line of presidential fragrances; the first, called ‘Fight, Fight, Fight,’ featured a triumphant photo of Trump with his fist in the air after an assassination attempt

last July.

Meanwhile, Trump’s media war brought another giant to its knees with Paramount agreeing to pay $16 million to settle his lawsuit alleging an interview with his Democratic presidential rival Kamala Harris that aired on CBS’s “60 Minutes” last year was deceptively edited. Disney paid a similar sum to settle Trump’s lawsuit against ABC News.

In another victory, after the friendly neighbourhood Supreme Court gave the president immunity and protected him from nationwide injunctions, a federal court also cleared the way for deportation of eight men hailing from different countries, to the war-torn South Sudan.

The Trump administration also sued Los Angeles — scene of recent riots over his massive deportation drive — over its sanctuary city law saying it hindered the administration’s efforts to address “a crisis of illegal immigration” facing the nation.

Some communities of Latino residents in California canceled Fourth of July parties over fears of immigration raids. If caught, they might end up on a new controversial immigrant detention center – a tented camp on mosquito-infested land 50 miles west of Miami – dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz.”

“It might be as good as the real Alcatraz,” cooed Trump after touring the literal cages where up to 5,000 people could eventually be detained. “A little controversial, but I couldn’t care less,” he said  offering some dark advice to people who may try to escape

Lest “they get eaten by an alligator or a snake,” said the President “We’re going to teach them how to run away from an alligator.”

“Don’t run in a straight line, look, like this,” he said making a zigzag motion with his hands, “and you know what? Your chances go up about 1%. Not a good thing.”

Trump’s remarks “on the deterrent factor of Everglade wildlife at the Alligator Alcatraz” were quickly shared on social media by the White House, along with videos of Trump touring the cages.
