I think a coronary has a higher chance than these staged assassinations.

All you need is a sizable “donation” to get to meet the dumbass. He is nearly 80. pretty easy to cause a “fall”.

Unless you take down the billionaires backing him, that'll only be a short reprieve

I’ll take what I can get

Just knowing that I'd never need to hear him speak again would be a huge win for me at this point.

Unfortunately, it seems the left never passed rifle-quals.

Have any of the attempts been carried out by a leftist? Pretty sure they've all been lolbertarians and groypers.

Apparently the last guy, at the WHCD, was a leftie. He seems to be the first though.

He sounded more like a moderate who’d finally had too much. But I could be wrong. Also considering how far right the center has moved, he could be left of center and still be what we’re all used to call conservative.

Okay, but if it's not blue... then how are we gonna get all those sweet "90's style rap-video pics" of 'Forrest Gump' riding 'Jennie' like a jet-ski on "The Trumpflection Pool: Brought to you by The Four Seasons Dildos"?

I dunno how you stop batin long enough to spell all those words. Do you wanna go to Starbucks?

brem@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 130d

Starbucks!?! We don't have time for handjobs right now, we have an entire pile of stuff & thangs to save!

Let me guess: he wants the pond to be golden?

Dude, we don't allow urination in the reflection pond. We don't jive with your strange obsession with piss colored things

Witchfire@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 130d

He's making it look like a cheap hotel pool

Judging by the picture which is already days old….its a bit late now. The work done.

I believe there was genuine repairs to be done, now wether the pool guy is qualified is a different question.

They painted the bottom blue.....like a swimming pool. The pool is supposed to reflect the Washington Monument and/or the Lincoln Memorial not be a big blue batch of water.

toynbee@piefed.social · 7 pts · 130d

I genuinely thought it was called that because you went there to reflect upon matters / yourself. Didn't know it was literal.

He just wanted it drained to find the Control Safe Room entrance

There is a botom, right?

To the reflecting pool? Yes.

I thought he meant the insanity.

resipsaloquitur@lemmy.cafe · 7 pts · 130d

Remains to be determined.
