Trump casually asked at Graceland if he could have ‘taken’ Elvis in a fight, if you were wondering how his laser focus on the war was going – 15 swift smackdowns
Donald Trump is a big Elvis fan. Not as much as he is a Donald Trump fan, but enough that he took the time, in 2024, to claim to the world that he and Elvis look alike.
Make of that what you will, but on Monday, when half the world feared he was about to start World War III and the greatest energy crisis in history, Trump took several hours out of his day to visit the former home of the King of Rock n Roll – Graceland.
The official War Room account reposted the lookalike nonsense in its announcement.

That went down as well as you’d expect.
Trump remains laser focused on his war with Iran, your gas prices, and TSA lines! https://t.co/IT3ZnDF3tR

While at the mansion, Trump seemed to forget that Elvis has left the building.
Did Trump briefly forget that Elvis is dead?
“Here’s our Attorney General incase you get in trouble. Would you help out Elvis? Elvis, maybe, gets a little bit of a pass. Not much. We’re not allowed to give much of a pass… I’m a big fan of Elvis. Who isn’t? Right? I think he’s… pic.twitter.com/BJuvZqvQ86

He signed a replica of one of Elvis’s guitars, which was pretty weird – but that’s on the Graceland staff, so he gets a rare pass.

He doesn’t get a pass for what happened next. That was all Trump.

Who asks such a stupid questio __ D’you know what …never mind.
Here’s what tweeters had to say about President No-Brain’s latest tangent.
1.
Donald Trump, freeloading on the taxpayer dime at Graceland, asks whether or not he could have taken Elvis in a fight.
He has as much chance of that as he does winning a Nobel Peace Prize.pic.twitter.com/MOiq0ZsCUl

Trump is basically doing a DMT-drip death-dream while still alive. I conquered Persia….I beat Elvis in kung-fu…I went to bed with Angie Dickenson… https://t.co/NyIX9MXCXH

At this point I suspect that if Trump were to die live on TV the @GOP would quickly pass the Weekend at Bernie's Act so he could continue to posthumously lead. https://t.co/mtZaHscJ7T

For the complete elimination of doubt, Elvis would have kicked his sorry, bone-spurred arse.
