You know, I'm strongly tempted to paint a lovely picture of Luigi wearing a green-accented SS uniform watching over a concentration camp full of Nintendo gamers with Switch 2s in response to that question.
If I were to do so, however, Nintendo would find it and correctly interpret it as an incisive commentary on their tyrannical business practices. They would then proceed to sue me into a state of non-existence - as they do whenever they realize that someone understands the perverse darkness behind their family-friendly IP recycling.
Und wir sagen, dass der Krieg nicht so enden wird, wie die Juden es sich vorstellen, nämlich mit der Vertreibung der Arier, sondern dass das Ergebnis dieses Krieges die VÖLLIGE VERNICHTUNG DER JUDEN SEIN WIRD!!!

Allow me to show my work to help you understand my genius joke:
Given joke format: [name of world leader] does [name as verb]
Chosen world leader: Trump
Definition of Trump as verb: "to get the better of"
Thought process:
This world leader is highly praised by his followers and "wins too much".
He is also highly denigrated by much of the world for many actions that are seen as complete failures.
The obvious joke is that "Trump trumps", and anyone who has ever heard that word before will make the connection right away. However, given the controversial actions, whether Trump actually trumps is the subject of much debate.
I don't want to make the obvious joke or have people arguing in my comments.
Set up obvious joke, then set up the swing-and-miss.
Result: Multiple people miss the joke and think I need help. They offer objectively poor substitutions, not realizing that the answer is right in front of them.
You probably are too something then. It's simple pattern recognition with vocab. If you see "Stalin stalls" and "Hitler hits", and then see "Trump", how can you not immediately think "Trump trumps"? I challenge you to find a better world leader name for this format.
Trump also “trumps” in the sense of a trumpet: he’s very vocal about his achievements throughout his life, just like one would “trumpet around”. One might even argue that he’s trumped up his achievements.
And frankly, I still think my joke wasn’t too bad.
Everyone has heard of the 'self-fulfilling prophecy' literary device, but I think with that name you just invented the world's first 'self-defeating prophecy'
I think it was specifically sparrows, but considering his plan was basically to weaponize peasants by having them make noise where birds like to sleep until they die of exhaustion, I think target discipline was likely not a priority.
China wanted to exterminate the 4 common "Pests". Rats, flies, mosquitos and sparrows. All "pests" were known to spread diseases and eat grain. The idea was simple, if you removed these animals, surely people would have more food and would be less sick...
Problem was, especially with the sparrows, that they ate far more bugs ( who primarily eat grain ) than they ate grain. So the result was a massive population boom of bugs, locusts,
That's been russian war doctrine ever since mongols. Expand, create buffer zones. In case of invasion fall back and starve enemy forces, good luck surviving in winter far off your logistic lines.
Similar for Charles De Gaulle. He was a close minded anti-semite before the war, and ended up marching into paris with a cops of jewish resistance soldiers. On the other hand, the collaborators of Vichy France were the progressive open minded ones before the war.
If you were the most individually powerful man your country had ever seen, with everyone of your nationality across the fucking world afraid to so much as breath in a way that displeases you... wouldn't you pop a log on someone, just to see how it feels?
I don't think we need public confirmation or evidence on this one - Putin shits on people, end of story.
Pffft - the pope wishes he had 'shitting on people' juice
Honestly, I'd be surprised if modern popes could even get a cardinal to suck their cock. Lord knows they had no problems with that back in the renaissance. Oh how the mighty have fallen.
Oh finally a character that isn't just what he does in the name
Looks at lore
He's a close relative of a previously very popular character that got killed off screen a few years before.
You expect me to believe that two cousins can just independently be elected President?
Oh and he's just like the greatest President ever and has like four terms and everybody loves him and he stays in office until he dies and he fighrs both Hitler and Stalin while sick with a deadly disease. Uh huh.
