Newsweek reports that one early instance of the quote being misattributed to Churchill comes, ironically, from a 1939 ad for Budweiser — a company DeSantis has criticized in the recent past.

Reminds me of the ending of Trumps presidency press conference at The Four Seasons Landscaping, lol. These idiots messing up this hard just epitomizes how much of a joke each and every one of them are.

Four Seasons Landscaping is such a huge, embarrassing blunder.
If Biden pulled a stunt like that it would never be let go... But so much bad shit is going on with the donnie debacle that I've almost completely forgotten about four seasons landscaping.

I will never forget Four Seasons Landscaping for the simple reason that it is the funniest thing to ever happen.
It's an SNL skit come to life.
It's so funny that you can't make a joke out of it.
The only option would be to "Normal Al" it and have everyone dress up in costume and deliver the press briefing they intended at the actual Four Seasons.

Why does this party seem out of Arrested development?

The Bluth family was actually modeled after the Trumps.

At least George actually went to jail for his crimes, I would also unashamedly laugh my dick off at a clip of Melanie’s saying ‘I really don’t care for Eric’

George was a patsy who was set up by the CIA

I mean, Trump did steal the wall idea from Arrested Development.

He also might have done some light treason.

I can only try to picture those thought processes. Like he wants to go to war, so he asks "someone hand me the suitcase 💼? no, I mean hand me the football 🏈? Nvm I'm tired, I think I'll just go to bed 🛏️ early."

I don't think that logic is helping their case at all, lol.
StinkyOnions@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
If that's their logic, it's even more pathetically stupid.

It's hard to imagine that they consciously chose a location next to a sex shop for a press conference.

I dunno, it successfully made me laugh:-). This story just keeps getting better and better.
We gotta store up all the laughs we can before Trump wins again:-(.

That is so embarrassing of Ron.
iAmTheTot@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y
That would require him to be able to feel shame, or for any of his base to care.
Lemminary@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y
As fake as his laugh and smile? Is that even possible?
Son_of_dad@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
I don't think his laugh is fake. It's so off putting that I think it's his genuine laugh. If it was fake it would be more appealing, but when he smiles and laughs, he just comes off as a psycho
