Yet, within just a few months of being sworn in, Fertitta has allegedly complained to Trump about a swarm of self-styled Italian and American emissaries and makeshift middlemen eager to influence relations between Rome and Washington.
It’s almost like we need an ambassador there to deal with these people.
And maybe even a reasonably sized staff of skilled and dedicated public servants who can help this and other burdensome tasks without being corrupted by the stream of grifters!
As a rule of thumb, I’m hesitant to trust anyone who unironically wears a cowboy hat.
I get it. I really do. And I hate it because I like cowboy hats. They’re comfy and offer nice sun protection. The smaller brimmed ones look pretty good with most of the things I wear. It’s just that 90% of the people wearing one are scumbags. Worse, the biggest scumbags that wear them always look fucking stupid in them because they have no idea how to shape them for their face.
It’s a good rule of thumb. They ruined my punisher T-shirts. They ruined my cowboy hats. They ruined Norse runes. Next they’ll ruin my rainbow bracelets.
Would you please do me a favor and start collecting Labubus
They’ll probably start collecting rainbow bracelets off of people they beat up as trophies.
Just look at the boots. Scuffs? Probably OK. Fresh shine and it’s not a honky tonk? Nah.
Italians love cowboys though.
most cowboys are italians
Tillman fucking Fertita is ambassador to Italy?!
Holy fucking hell… I had to reread that 5 times in the article to believe it. I bet if they rebranded it the Fertitta Embassy and flew in Mattress Mack to party he’d stay there. Or maybe it’s all a mission to steal family recipes and open an Italian Landry’s.
Is US taxpayer paying him for use of his property for official business?
That would be un-presidented! Er, unprecedented.
Mama Mia!
