The meme is funny but the text is false. He isn't sitting on anything, it is his jacket. You can see him sit down without any towel on the couch and his jacket spreads to the side ~0:30 into the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKzo0hTJXB4

EDIT: for the downvoters and people trying to cast doubt, I clipped the moment he sits down

bstix@feddit.dk · 135 pts · 58d (10 replies)

Holy shit, his age is showing. They did a rehearsed countdown 3-2-1 for him to sit down with aid from the guy next to him.

Now I'm not going to blame an old guy for needing help to sit down. But I am going to blame his voters for electing an elderly person into a position he can obviously not fulfill. What the hell. This is discraceful.

He also gets treated and talked to like a literal child when putting the mic on him. "Very good!"

Serinus@lemmy.world · 22 pts · 58d

They've dealt with him before.

some_random_nick@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 57d

Mostly because he is an egomaniac and you need to suck up to him if you want to stay in position.

So because of Biden, a candidate that was going to replay exactly the same decline whilst in office was correctly elected? Seems like everyone should have learned from the first mistake no?

The Left needs to do better. Honestly I don't want a Left spreading false information about a political opponent like the Right does. We can do better

We instead get fooled by misinformation spread by the far-right about our comrades then expel them based on that, because "the left needs to do better".

Then why is he wearing an unfitted jacket? Is he poor?

EpeeGnome@feddit.online · 30 pts · 58d (2 replies)

He's always worn suits that fit like a fat kid trying on his adult dad's suit. I can't guess why, but he does it so consistently it must be on purpose.

finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 58d

Would you wanna measure his inner thigh for a fitted suit?

tempest@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 58d

It just used to be the style in the 80s and 90s. Even by those standards it's a bad fit but that's why I assume he wears them.

Fuckfuckmyfuckingass@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 58d

Why does his tie go down to his fucking shins? He's a buffoon and always has been.

Are you serious? That's a JACKET?

What the fuck?

Like... What the FUCK?

I literally don't believe it, because people with nice jackets don't look like this.

Edit: Naw, it's a towel. Come on... Do you think we're all fucking stupid?

theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 57d

Did you watch the video of him sitting down? Yes, it is his ill-fitting jacket that spreads to his sides as he sits down. There is no ambiguity or doubt because the video clearly shows the couch before and while he sits down, and clearly shows the bottom of his jacket spread. He is not sitting on a towel.

Here, I clipped the exact moment he sits down for you:

You can watch from the youtube link for higher quality and additional angles

We don't need to make up things that didn't happen in order to criticize Trump. There's plenty of embarrassing, disgraceful, and (most importantly) real things that happen in the video, from needing a 3-2-1 countdown with aid in order to sit down on a couch, to getting talked to like a young child by everyone in the room.

Remember all those MAGA influencers touting epstein file binders promoting the pedophiles campaign when he campaigned on all those lies he said he was going to do and then did exactly the opposite of every single thing he campaigned on and yet these jackoff MAGA fucks still support the pedophile for some ungodly reason?

it's because he's wearing a diaper and on the faux leather seats, it would make a crinkly crunching noise every time he moved.

dharmacurious@slrpnk.net · 11 pts · 58d

I completely agree with you, in theory. However, he is claiming to be fit for duty in the highest office in the most powerful nation on earth (or at the very least still top 5), and his entire persona is strongman. People need to understand he is not some mythical, deific figure, and that he is an old man, who is not in control of his mind or body.

That said, as the child of a disabled woman that I would gladly have killed or died for, I understand what you're saying, and I agree. There's a balance to be struck, and this probably isn't it.
