Do they? I mostly see them say he didn't know, or cope with some conspiracy theory about Trump secretly going after everyone else on the list, like some kind of white-hat pedophile.

They've accidentally shifted to being a reliable news source.

You'll be pleased to hear the orange man has seen the error of his ways in making a social media post, and decided to double down and repeat the claims to journalists in person.

Because of course he did and why would you expect anything else at this point.

Is anyone surprised at this point that there is no low this president won't stoop to?

EVERY day, we look up at yesterdays low! Donny 2 Dolls' capacity to excavate ever deeper, is superhuman. It is literally the ONE THING that Donny 2 Inches excels at.

I can hear the guitar riff, hah!

... you ever seen him just build a slide guitar out of nothing in like 5 minutes?

"Who says you need to buy a guitar?"

Ah, back when making trailers was its own artform...

I recommend that entire documentary (It Might Get Loud). Really interesting.

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 261d

Saw it when it came out, it is awesome.

Though, The Edge kind of comparitively struggles in the jam sessions, as his forte is more... fucking about with amps and effects to make novel sorts of sonic environments, than improvising riffs.

(Not like I could do any better lol, I'd probably do much, much worse, would just sieze up, have a panick attack, die of shame if Jimmy fucking Page asked me to play anything on a guitar, lol)

DarkFuture@lemmy.world · 25 pts · 261d

In a world where it's a beloved director who gave us all a championship run of amazing films and was always cool as hell in interviews versus a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, insurrectionist, and probable pedophile, American conservatives choose to side with the felon rapist insurrectionist pedophile.

Sick fucks who don't deserve to benefit from what this country has to offer.

I'm so sorry I have to ask: the orange post is satire, right?

Quill7513@slrpnk.net · 67 pts · 261d (10 replies)

sorry, no. he really posted that

MarieMarion@literature.cafe · 12 pts · 261d (9 replies)

I'm 8000km away, but... isn't he getting worse? Not "his" politics, which have always been heinous. His mental state?

Quill7513@slrpnk.net · 13 pts · 261d (4 replies)

think of the last 80 year old you interacted with. ask yourself the following questions:

  • were they as with it as your average 60 year old?
  • did they live as poorly as this guy does (keeping in mind he has access to all the food in the world and he chooses to eat fast food)
  • were they under as much stress as a US president?

so… yes. it would seem he is mentally deteriorating. however, what would be a real surprise would be if he wasn't.

drhodl@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 261d (2 replies)

You only get stress from the job, if you actually care about, and DO the job. Fat-ass Kraznov only signs EO's, between noon and 5 pm, and considers that a hard day's work. He doesn't give a literal shit about outcomes and who suffers from his negligence, so he doesn't get stressed.

Quill7513@slrpnk.net · 3 pts · 261d (1 reply)

for sure. i considered not including that element. but then i thought about it more and i decided to leave it because your average 80 year old can can just putter, sit, read, and listen to music all day. they don't have to do public appearances

miked@piefed.social · 4 pts · 261d

He LOVES public appearances. More time to talk about his favorite person.

bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 261d

I wonder if he would have been happier in prison. Did no one tell him that he would have had a pretty nice setup behind bars?

drhodl@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 261d

If he was poor, he'd be in and out of county jails forever, stinking of stale unchanged diaper, since there's no public psych treatments available for poors. Since he's rich (from inheritance) and "famous", the made him President.....

prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 261d

It's all so so bad, and it's getting worse daily.

sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 261d (1 reply)

He is getting much worse, and quickly. It's so annoying how Biden would give a speech and fumble at some point (as he had done his entire life, dealing with a speech problem) and the press would report the hell out of it, but this chuckle fuck does far worse daily, and it's just kind of a shrug and "eh, what can we do? ¯\_(ツ)_ /¯"

Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz · 1 pts · 260d

Biden would give a speech and fumble at some point (as he had done his entire life, dealing with a speech problem) and the press would report the hell out of it

There's a difference between a stutter and completely forgetting what you're trying to say every 3 words.

There was a conspiracy of silence around how pudding-brained Biden was until he dropped out. For 5 years yall gaslighted anyone who mentioned it by pointing at him reading prepared speeches while the guy couldn't talk to the press after like 4pm.

That's not to say Trump isn't senile, it comes through every time he goes off-script.

boonhet@sopuli.xyz · 4 pts · 261d

Also true, but he's definitely obsessed with Reiner specifically too since Reiner has criticized him in the past.

I read TDS as The Downward Spiral, which could be a view of the president as well

Has there ever been a clearer example of "failing upwards" than trump? Like, ever in the history of the world?

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 261d

Maybe Caligula. Maybe.

MJKee9@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 255d

I'm sure there have been others. History is written by the victors.... So you aren't going to get an accurate portrayal of someone if they ended up in control of the people writing the history of their ascension.

Soleos@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 261d

Holy fuck, I think I conflated this with his BrownU comment, I saw some headlines referring to this one... But Jesus I didn't know it was that bad.

saimen@feddit.org · 4 pts · 261d (4 replies)

Wait, was he killed by Trump supporters or what happened?

Quill7513@slrpnk.net · 44 pts · 261d (3 replies)

currently it looks like he was killed by his estranged son for personal reasons. the president swerved out of his way to make it about him because terror is part of the republican regime

altphoto@lemmy.today · 4 pts · 261d (2 replies)

If they had not found a culprit Trump would be eating his words like it was Taco Tuesday because that tweet reads like a murder confession. It sounds like a murder confession even with the son in jail....did the administration pay the son to murder his parents? If so, then yeah, totally a TDS death right there I guess. I so much want to hope that is not what happened and instead maybe the son was high on paint thinner and went crazy on the parents.
