I have just seen on the News that Trump has had erected a cage surrounded by seats for a Cage Fighting event to celebrate his 80th Birthday and their 250th Independence Day.😳

I’ll be 80 in September and our son is taking the Family to the Aquarium in Brighton near his home to celebrate.

Any other GNetters 80 this year ?

DrWatson, Mr Trump is obsessed by IQ, often referring to people he dislikes/ disagree with as having a " low IQ".
I have met a few very clever folk in my life, and they have never made any comment on their own IQ or any others.
I understand that he graduated second from the bottom of his college.

I think Trump confuses IQ tests with the cognitive tests he does now and again, which he claims to 'pass with flying colours.'

Trump is so dim that he has no idea how stupid he is. Apparently, it takes a modicum of intelligence to realise that there are people more intelligent than you are.

Just when you thought it couldn't get any trashier, there are reports/rumours that at least some, if not all, the cage fights were fixed.

Fixed so that Trump's bet won? I'm quite shocked to think cheating was happening 😅

That's Donny for you. He obviously knows what he likes. And likes what he knows.

DrWatson If Trump's IQ is 160 my name's Melania.gringringrin

It’s more likely that Melania has an IQ of 160 than that her husband does I think. I wonder if she enjoyed the cage fighting, or was cringing like most of USA was.

I had my 80th birthday earlier this year. 1946 was a very good year!!
Happy Birthday today for dragonfly, I hope you've enjoyed your special day.
Also Birthday wishes to you, NanKate, and all others as they celebrate their 80th this year. x flowers cupcake wine

I’m 80 in July and am going on holiday with my family

For Casdon, and that " I hope that Trump is paying for it, not the long suffering taxpayers." . . . . . .SOOOOOO funny!

The chances of that classless conman and pervert paying for the event are about as likely as one of us winning the Grand National, the Boat Race, and the Lottery on the same day.

Oh, PS, on another forum, one of his fans speculated that of the last 3 Presidents, Biden might have had a Mensa score (IQ) of 70, Obama 90, and Chump 160 (the author claimed to be in Mensa - I'd guess it was a struggle to merely spell it).

This drew some replies as to WHAT that '160' might actually represent for the Orange Baboon. One suggestion was that it could be the number of cans of hair lacquer they use in a week, another was that it's his average golf score (before allowances for wind, sun and cheating). A further opinion was that it's the number of full-time staff they have using marker pens to block the Chump name out of the Epstein files?

Haha unlikely but apparently there is a planned invasion of trans and gay people shrouded in rainbow flags. I read they're buying up as, many tickets as possible.

For Trump’s birthday BASH! It was exactly that, so typical,
Yuck. Vulgar Thug!

suelld Mon 15-Jun-26 16:11:51

My 80th is in October… nothing planned. Eldest son and grandchildren live in Japan, other son busy in London. Best friends already died. But happy enough. Will likely have a meal with a few remaining friends? Or not…?

Two people in a cage, fighting.
Well, supposedly demonstrating their mixed martial arts skills, and with evenly matched opponents, and good a good referee, that's what will happen.

It doesn't take much for things to go awry, though.

Magenta8 Mon 15-Jun-26 16:08:39

Estrella it is two men fighting in a large link-wire cage. It is, allegedly, quite a sophisticated form of fighting with lots of different techniques and skills involved.

Your birthday celebrations sound really enjoyable. Much nicer and more civilised than Trumps.

Estrellita Mon 15-Jun-26 14:56:17

What is a cage fight? I don't like the sound of it.

Estrellita Mon 15-Jun-26 14:54:40

Yes. I was 80 in January. My two daughters took me for a night in a nice hotel in Richmond with a meal at a nice restaurant and a trip to the cinema. On my actual birthday my husband took me out to lunch.

knspol Mon 15-Jun-26 14:21:34

How typically crass of the Donald to have a cage fight on the White House lawn to celebrate his birthday. The man has no class not to mention many other deficiencies.

I’m reaching for the sick bucket NotSpaghetti.

Winner gave Trump his medal.

To 'like' him, you would perhaps also have to accept his alleged listings in the Epstein Files, the fact that he has been found guilty of SA, the fact that he is a convicted felon.

nanna8 Mon 15-Jun-26 10:29:30

People dislike the man so much I am actually beginning to like him …oppositional syndrome. Have to think he is ‘different’ and won’t be forgotten in a hurry. Only in America ….

MissAdventure Mon 15-Jun-26 10:22:22

Yes, it'll leak out, no doubt.
Oh,, I can just see him posturing and preening... eurgh!
