Everything this moron does is a direct reflection of just how dumb this entire country is.

I don't think of stupid Donny any more ... every time I see these headlines, all I can imagine is just how stupid America is.

"Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don't fall out of the sky. They don't pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do folks. This is what we have to offer. It's what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out." --George Carlin

Many of us aren't that stupid, or maybe I just live in a bubble (San Francisco) and the majority of the rest of the country is, in fact, that stupid. Idk, I haven't done much traveling in the US lately.

We lived in the bay for a while. It's a bubble, with a skin made of rent prices.

Okay. Canada has been seen doing some fascist shit lately. I guess you're a big ol fascist then eh?

You never met Nero. But yeah, he’s up there with the worst of them for sure.

Rothe@piefed.social · 9 pts · 354d

There has been a lot of historical revision on Nero in recent years. He was probably a much better ruler than contemporary Roman history claims.

Caligula on the other hand...

this guy is a sore loser even when he wins the election lol

boonhet@sopuli.xyz · 9 pts · 354d (2 replies)

There's a nonzero chance that both his presidencies have been just attempts to erase the burn from Obama roasting him

iAvicenna@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 354d (1 reply)

I am going to give it >%10 chance given how he made AI videos of Obama being arrested lol. Look at how Obama is a naturally charismatic speaker, everything Trump wants to be but can't. So he tries to make up for his negative skills in this domain by throwing money at it and flaunting his horribly unjustified self confidence.

boonhet@sopuli.xyz · 7 pts · 354d

Yeah, I disagree with Obama on a whole lot of things, but the man has natural charm. If I had to have a beer with any of the US presidents and I could choose which one, it'd be Obama. Now if you expanded that to include people who ran for president, but got fucked in the primaries, it'd be Bernie of course.

A totally normal behavior, if he was a 5 years old child

I wouldn't let my 5 year old treat someone like this

It's small-minded, it's petty, and it's not classically presidential by any possible stretch of the imagination. It's also funny as heck.

Our world has descended so far that parody is no longer effective.

Supervisor194@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 354d (2 replies)

Comedy will not keep me from going bankrupt from medical debt, create a robust middle class or for that matter, produce the Epstein files.

Also, comedy is subjective. As an example, I don't think it's funny, I think it's fucking dumb. Third rate 4-chan trolling shit is only mildly amusing when coming from a fourth grader, it's absolutely retarded coming from the octogenarian president of the United States.

sefra1@lemmy.zip · 0 pts · 354d (1 reply)

Why do you want a middle class? That implies the existence of a lower and upper class.

Instead we need to abolish classes

Supervisor194@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 354d

Yeah OK, we can talk about that, sure. The point remains. Comedy won't do that either.

Do you mean a pic of Trump in the same pose as Mussolini's last picture?

Sgt_choke_n_stroke@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 354d (2 replies)

The next president will show his mug shot and his photos with Jeffery epstein

robocall@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 354d

Maybe it will just say "where are the Epstein files?"

Unpeeled3828@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 354d

His mugshot is the picture for the 47th president. It hangs next to the autopen. He really loves that mugshot.

WoodScientist@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 355d (3 replies)

We need to replace his portrait with a picture of a golden toilet.

atzanteol@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 354d

Just use the one of him and Epstein.

robocall@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 355d

should have a fat turd floating in it

this_1_is_mine@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 354d

Burning golden toilet in a garbage pile.

MehBlah@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 354d

As long as they don't get upset if they replace trumps image later with a orange Cheeto or something.

The world is trying to figure out how to handle trolls when they are presidents of a country

You know, I might find this funny if it didn't come with all the other horrifying stuff

captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 354d (1 reply)

I'm gonna be real here, if a president I liked did something like that to trump I'd find it funny. This is part of his massive campaign against his enemies and such but it's just the kind of petty and insane that I would expect from a Larry David meets veep version of west wing

robocall@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 354d

I respectfully disagree. I want a president that acts like an adult, takes things seriously, and respects America.

Go hide in your echo chamber, cowards. Stay afraid.

ramenshaman@lemmy.world · -1 pts · 355d (3 replies)

I looked around there for like 2 or 3 minutes and it seemed pretty satirical.

Blackfeathr@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 354d (1 reply)

It might seem satirical but I guarantee you there are people who unironically believe this stuff. Poe's Law and all that.

HopeOfTheGunblade@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 9 pts · 354d

Shit about "god emperor trump" was satirical right up until it wasn't.

Gumbyyy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 354d

Great, another "satirical" pro-Trump online forum that will no longer be satirical at all in another year. Seriously, doesn't anybody remember the_donald?

ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one · 18 pts · 355d

Ummm, I was infantilizing Trumpie by using a nick name that kids would use for each other.

HumanOnEarth@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 355d

You understand barely any of your fellow "freethinkers" can even manage to figure out how to use it right?

Of course you don't.

Here's my free thought - go fuck yourself. Good luck with your little fan club, I fully support your right to give the rest of us plenty of material to laugh at you with.

protist@mander.xyz · 3 pts · 355d (2 replies)

I'm very interested to hear your definition of "freethinker."

HumanOnEarth@lemmy.ca · 12 pts · 355d (1 reply)

I can help with that.

A "freethinker" in their world is someone who is brave enough to blindly follow stupid people who have opinions outside of the mainstream.

They're so free they change their mind on the same topic again and again and again depending on what their "freethinker channels" are telling them to think.

So free.
