75. "He literally cannot STAND"
Wed Apr 29, 2026, 08:31 PM
Apr 29

He's always sitting at that prop desk with the press corps behind a rope in front of him and the asskissing sycophants du jour* standing behind him.

Reality star surrounded by props performing for the cameras.... every freakin' day.

And also it's belittling to the astronauts saying he could've done it. Imagine other astronauts having to be in close quarters with him for weeks... ugghh.

* (In this case the astronauts had to be there as part of their duty)
