White House roasted for not knowing where penguins actually live: 'Wrong hemisphere!'

An attempt to troll critics by President Donald Trump's White House backfired spectacularly on Friday as observers gave the administration a geography lesson.

As Trump openly fantasizes about taking over Greenland from Denmark, the official White House account posted an artificial intelligence-generated photo of the president walking next to a penguin on a block of ice. In the photo, the penguin carries a U.S. flag and the two walk toward a Greenland flag.

Observers quickly pounced on the post, noting the massive island contains no penguins. Indeed, all 18 penguin species are confined to the Southern Hemisphere, with the highest concentrations on Antarctic coasts and sub-Antarctic islands.

The anti-Trump account PatriotTakes wrote on X, "There are no penguins in Greenland. All Penguins live in the southern hemisphere except one species from the Galapagos Islands. Perhaps you shouldn’t have dismantled the Department of Education so quickly."

Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) chided on X, "Wrong hemisphere."....

Brian Espinoza, writer for the Rogue Rocket & Philip DeFranco Show, wrote on X, "You dumb mother f---ers, there are no penguins in the North."

15. Oh, for fuck's sake.

8. Well, actually not quite true.

There are penguins in the Northern Hemisphere.
They are in something called zoos. Usually in programs to help protect and breed species.
But of course, t and his cabal have probably never even been to a zoo. All those dirty stinky animals, doncha know.

9. Those folks don't seem to mind showing off their ignorance at all. Self-confident in their lack of knowledge.

11. Great.... Now this mofo is bound to deport penguins "back' to greenland

Just to prove they were correct about penguins being in greenland...

Poor friggin penguins. Even they aren't safe from trump...

[StarryNite]

12. Dump's footprints should be weaving all over the place.

[ShazzieB]

16. I was about to say the same thing!

It's ridiculous enough that both he he and the penguin are leaving the same exact footprints, much less that his are in a perfctly straight line!

13. Fabulous comments:

Brian Espinoza, writer for the Rogue Rocket & Philip DeFranco Show, wrote on X, "You dumb mother f---ers, there are no penguins in the North.

The anti-Trump account PatriotTakes wrote on X, "There are no penguins in Greenland. All Penguins live in the southern hemisphere except one species from the Galapagos Islands. Perhaps you shouldn’t have dismantled the Department of Education so quickly."

Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) chided on X, "Wrong hemisphere."

Michael Shurkin, director of global programs at 14N Strategies, fact-checked on X, "1. There are no penguins in Greenland. 2. This has all the maturity of the brain rot Reels my kids watch. Makes me wonder about the age of the kid who controls this account.

14. "Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) chided on X, "Wrong hemisphere." "

True, but remember this is the guy who voted FOR funding for ICE and to hold the Clintons in contempt.

17. But he can tell you all about the crocadiles in Florida

[nuxvomica]

18. IIRC, he once referred to the cacti in the middle east

Probably thinking all deserts have cacti, though they are only native to the Western Hemisphere.

19. Reminds me of when he placed tariffs on 2 tiny islands

inhabited only by penguins and seals!



https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly8xlj0485o

"Two tiny, remote Antarctic outposts populated by penguins and seals are among the obscure places targeted by the Trump administration's new tariffs.

Heard and McDonald Islands - a territory which sits 4,000km (2,485 miles) south-west of Australia - are only accessible via a seven-day boat trip from Perth, and haven't been visited by humans in almost a decade.

Australian trade minister Don Farrell told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) that the tariffs were "clearly a mistake".

"Poor old penguins, I don't know what they did to Trump, but, look, I think it's an indication, to be honest with you, that this was a rushed process."
