Can't believe it but I'm actually hoping it turns out to be just a mindless rant for 45 minutes and he forgets to declare war or martial law or himself king or whatever he intended.

Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca · 80 pts · 242d (7 replies)

I hope he shits himself violently and has a stroke and dies on camera. I want the smell of his shit to be so vile, the secret servicemen who come to his aid instantly projectile puke on his corpse after a really big lunch. I want his administration to slip on the puke and hit their heads hard. Half fataly, and the other half sent to hospices for brain damaged vegetables where they shit themselves constantly. I want the nurses that take care of these vegetables to be abusive and hose the shit off them with a cold garden hose infrequently, until they die of sepsis from shitty bed sores.

I have high hopes.

Unfortunately, I think he'll be like Kissinger, and his fat fucking hate-filled void where his heart should be is going to keep him alive for another 15 years. The Right is going to Weekend at Bernie's him around as long as physically possible, because they know the backlash to... everything... is going to be severe.

If it just turns into 45 minutes of successive people coming into the room and vomiting from how gross the previous people made the room and passing out in the pile of people and vomit I would die happy.

Or advertise a new hotel, like the last time the media believed he had something important to say.

It's going to be Venezuela.

I "matched" a girl from Venezuela. You know, had her entire profile in Spanish, but spoke perfect English? She was suggesting that maybe the invasion would help free them from Maduro.

Yeah. They're trying to psy-op this already, and they know they don't have the narrative or support it they're gonna try it anyway.

peopleproblems@lemmy.world · 27 pts · 242d

Normally? Yeah. But this is about invading a foreign country because they nationalized their own oil.

This will involve children getting killed. So... No.

captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 242d (1 reply)

No it's a bush level unforced error. Not just the administration, but the nation as well. Young men are about to go experience the joy of dying in a jungle as the rest of us suffer because the rest of the world fucking hates us and won't trade with us anymore.

FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 14 pts · 242d

That's kind of Trump's MO, though. Distract from anything embarrassing or problematic for him by committing increasingly greater cruelties that push them off the front page.

Serinus@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 242d (3 replies)

You'll excuse me for being skeptical.

peopleproblems@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 241d (2 replies)

Which part? The psy-op? The Venezuelan invasion?

Or the fact that I matched with anyone?

krooklochurm@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 241d (1 reply)

Yes

peopleproblems@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 241d

Fair

JGrffn@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 241d

Nah, it's no psy-op. People truly hold these beliefs. I can't blame them for it after the time they've had with Maduro, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's a belief held by the majority of Venezuelans. In Honduras, people are celebrating the Trump pardon of our narcotrafficker ex-president, saying Trump did the right thing, and cursing the current administration as if it could hold a candle to the crimes we saw during the other guy's time in power. It's unhinged, and yet it's no less true. I can at least sympathize with the Venezuelans who think like that a ton more than I can with my own countrymen, bunch of fucking idiots that they are.

Edit: the perfect English is a byproduct of living in the shadow of the empire. Any chances of financial freedom can only be achieved by working for US companies. That binds you to a race to learn and be good at English as a second language. It's probably true of any decently-sized city south of the US border. Those who don't learn English are destined to end up serving those who do end up learning English.

War in Venezuela? Yes, it's war in Venezuela.

Would you really put it past him to use the emergency warning system to try to force people to watch his decrepit lard ass talk? Personally I'd go chuck my phone into my car until it's over while playing Cyberpunk 2077 and watching Eva.

He’s declaring war on Venezuela

dustyData@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 241d

Probably not, it will be another "special operation".

Mossheart@lemmy.ca · 40 pts · 242d

War were declared.

-Wednesday, probably.

abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 37 pts · 241d (8 replies)

So the US is either:

  • Going to War with Venezuela.
  • Declaring some horseshit scheme that will see people's freedoms and liberties reduced or destroyed.
  • Going to go after a minority or such.
  • Going to hear Donald Trump waffle on about how he is God's representative on earth.
  • Going to hear something absolutely fucking wild.
Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works · 18 pts · 241d (6 replies)

And the US isn't going to:

  • RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES
abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 6 pts · 241d (5 replies)

I mean what it could be saying is something along lines of "The Epstein files are a plot against me, therefore I'm declaring martial law".

You are lying to yourself. He has the most comprehensive medical care on the planet. He is almost certainly having his vitals monitored 24 hours a day. They kept Cheney alive without a working heart 20 years ago.

They kept Cheney alive without a heart 20 years ago.

Big deal, like most politicians, especially republicans, he didn't have one to start with...

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 242d (5 replies)

Trump lived like absolute shit for the majority of his life, regardless of how well they keep an eye on him there are going to be underlying conditions they won't be able to predict. Also his brain is melting, as a general rule the body can keep going for a shit tonne of time so long as the mind works but not really the other way around at least amongst the elderly.

DaMummy@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 242d

Which is why he's making up for lost time. He's trying to get that Kissinger and Chaney lifetime. Which is what I think this address is about.

mister_flibble@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 241d (1 reply)

He also absolutely seems like the type to leave a doctor's appointment about how his diet is killing him and get McDonald's on the way home.

Can you imagine being Trump's doctor? He's gotta be a fucking awful patient. Firing people who tell him things he doesn't want to hear is his favorite past time.

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 241d

I'd be right tempted to prescribe him something that would help one thing but probably nuke his other organs. But I guess that's why I'm not a doc, more of a hacksaw medic, minimal training but I know just enough to keep someone from bleeding out.

I am sorry to announce I will step down as President of the United States. I know this will be hard for a lot of people to accept, because of the tremendous work I've done.
But don't worry, the country is in good hands, as J. D. Vance will take over after me, and J. D. Vance will continue the tremendous work we've been doing.

...

Oh and also I'm declaring war on Venezuela, Canada and Denmark.

AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 241d (5 replies)

Someone said swapping trump for Vance is like shitting your pants and changing your shirt lol

Buffalox@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 241d (3 replies)

That is absolutely true, Vance is another type of dangerous, but he may be even more dangerous, because Vance may be less delusional, but he is every bit as evil.

Omgpwnies@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 241d

He does not hold the cult of personality though. Trump has "dear leader"-level adulation among MAGATs, Vance has nothing close to that.

kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 241d (1 reply)

Less easy to manipulate, more ideological, more sly and conniving, more interested in implementing and enforcing theocratic policies, younger, and capable of serving two full terms without inviting legitimate backlash.

Buffalox@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 241d

True, but it's actually even worse than that, this analysis by a psychiatrist explains how J. D. Vance is psychologically more dangerous than Trump:

I'd take Trump over Vance any day.

Trump is Trump, but at the end of the day operates on a lot of emotion.

Vance is smart, like the devil. And more 'sociopath' feeling.

What if all the stress with Epstein and everything just got to him and we truly had a joint universal Christmas gift? One can only dream.

Unfortunately though I think he'll pull a Kissinger, and the pure vile hate void inside him will keep him alive for another 15 years.

PenguinMage@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 242d

I was always told the good die young, while I admit he's well past his prime, I feel he's evil enough to live damn near forever.

Weydemeyer@lemmy.ml · 10 pts · 241d

Honestly, I am hoping it really is just him whine bragging like he always does. He seems bothered that Americans don’t realize how “great” the economy is, so maybe he’s gonna try and talk about that. Anything that isn’t a declaration of war against Venezuela (or anyone else for that matter) I will be relieved by.

I'm going to go drink every time...

He says he is the "peace president". Says he has stopped some number of wars, but the number is different from last time he said it. Announces he is starting a war. Brags about getting a peace medal (from FIFA). Calls for the military to deploy inside the US. Denigrates a reporter, drink double if they are in the room. Announces he is arresting prominent Democrats. Calls antifa a terrorist organization.

Double drink if he says that Rob Reiner had TDS and deserved it.

Finish the bottle if he admits that he is implicated in the Epstein files, and resigns.
