Idiot Trump Signs Order Declaring Everyone In The Country Is A Woman

Whether U.S. males see themselves as women or not, they are now all females. That's the import of one of Trump's Executive Orders.

This Trumpian Edict has now removed all wage and salary differences between men and women in the United States. That is no longer an issue because, like it or not, all males are now women.

Ain't that something, huh!
