Trump Declares New Holiday: Tanksgiving

WASHINGTON D.C.—During a meeting with officials about Trump's Fourth of July tank parade, one of the men on Trump's staff jokingly said to another, "Happy Tanksgiving." The man—a father of four children (obviously)—was overheard by the president who immediately decided this "Tanksgiving" thing was a great idea.

Tanksgiving will be the nation's first monthly holiday and will be celebrated the third Thursday of every month.

That’s the way some of us say “thanksgiving” here on Staten Island already :)

And after giving thanks, instead of saying “Amen”, you say “Abrams”.

This will be a fine excuse for conservatives to cosplay in the Patton Tank Officer uniform!

It looks more like something from a Flash Gordon comic strip. Not saying that’s a bad thing...

To those who keyworded this thread: if I met someone who wrote for the Babylon Bee, I’d shake their hand and thank them.

I see BB threads posted here regularly by various FReepers, none of which as near as I can determine, have any connection with the Bee. So nobody is pimping their own blog.

Thanks. I rarely look at keywords, so I missed these being added.

"clickbait"? "blogpimp"? I wish Babylon Bee was my blog, the ad revenues would be awesome!!

With all due respect to the late general, he looks like something out of a Flash Gordon serial.
