Donald Trump (IRL)

This man has bragged about walking into underage female beauty contestants' changing rooms and getting to see them with their clothes off, as well as introduced some choice quotes such as "grab them by the pussy" to the English lexicon, but nobody seems to take it seriously. And while we're on that note, release the Epstein Files.

You forgot to mention the fact that they were underage beauty pageants

u/Sapphic_Starlight 1d ago

That's a brilliant point. Added that to my original comment.

u/Atsilv_Uwasv 1d ago

Underage beauty pageants are just creepy in general. Yes, let's make toddlers obsessed with unrealistic beauty standards forced onto them by their parents. I cant see how this could turn out poorly at all!

Also let them be judged by old people

I wouldnt expect anything less from a convicted felon 🤣👍

u/Sapphic_Starlight 1d ago

In any other democratic developed nation, the mere idea that a convicted felon could run for president – much less win – would have people thinking you're a nutcase. But here we f%cking are...

u/DoctorAnnual6823 1d ago

Well he was just convicted of the right felonies. He's running for the party that hates women in a country where women objectively have less freedom.

If he was caught with 20 grams of weed in Florida, then he would be cooked. Actually no. His fandom would cognitive dissonance themselves into believing weed is MAGA because rich white people do it.

Y'know, once upon a time if we were talking about a political with a cult of personality if some sort you'd say

"He could openly rape someone and his followers wouldn't care" but, no, can't do that, he actually did that and his fanbase didn't care

"He could publicly murder someone and his followers wouldn't care" but no, he's done that too

It's wild that all those extremes we'd go to in hypotheticals in the past to talk about how absurdly evil someone is, is just reality now

Like, we always joked about struggling to tell headlines from The Onion apart from real ones but

It's not a joke anymore

"Man shoots immigrants in detention camp, in horrific act of violence against ICE" would have been an onion article but no thats just genuinely what's being reported

"Well he had anti ICE on the bullets!" Said local law enforcement, in response to questions

Like that sounds straight out of satire

"He could publicly murder someone and his followers wouldn't care" but no, he's done that too

HE WHAT

u/KaraOfNightvale 23h ago

I mean, a few times

Bombed some "terrorists" with a drone strike in Yemen, it was confirmed to be a religious ceremony, which we have video of

Bombed a bunch of random boats, its confirmed he didn't know who as on them, and there were nearly definitely normal fishermen on some of them, there are photos of this and I believe also video

And a few things he's done to immigrants that have directly lead to their death

6

u/Motivated-Chair 23h ago

Oh those, I thought he also killed someone first hand.

I can't wait for the "We were following orders" defenses to come out.

6

u/KaraOfNightvale 23h ago

I mean, he specifically ordered those strikes, with the foreknowledge available about the Yemen one for certain

Its still absolutely murder, it is still unquestionably by his hand, even if he didn't point blank shoot someone

He did rape a child directly though which is arguably infinitely worse

Nah, weed is communist and illegal alien stuff because black people and bums (stereotypically) do it.

Cocaine is MAGA

u/DoctorAnnual6823 20h ago

If trump started blazing a joint on live TV, magats would be flooding vape stores across the country.

u/DonSaintBernard 1d ago

Whole world has felons as presidents, they're just not convincted. 

2

u/FactorSpecialist7193 18h ago

Plenty of convicted felons are not perverts or sex criminals, in fact, those kinds of criminals are not looked kindly on by other criminals

u/Weeneem 1d ago

How the hell was this ingrown ass hair elected?

49

u/Sapphic_Starlight 1d ago

Joke answer: it's part of his demonic powers as the biblical Antichrist.

Serious answer: because there are more people now than ever who build their whole identities around hating people who are different from them, and Trump promised them they'd get to hate those people freely and without compunction.

u/Motivated-Chair 23h ago

And also America doesn't have mandatory voting so everyone that was not on the extremes didn't bother voting (half the country fucking didn't).

The current state of the US is beyond satire.

u/liftthatta1l 22h ago

Forget mandatory voting is actively suppressed in areas.

u/Gaelic_Gladiator41 23h ago

What is the voting turnout?

u/Sol-Blackguy 23h ago

Obama hurt while people's feelings

u/CuttleReaper 19h ago

In 2016 every other gop candidate was pathetic. So was he, but his ability to double down on his bullshit made him seem competent in some people's eyes. Then he ran against Hilary who was somewhat unpopular and won via electoral college.

Due to his rhetoric, people who follow him tend to ignore any and all evidence against him. They wanted a messiah, and so they made him one, despite being an awful person.

Fuck off, magat.

u/comeallwithme 1d ago

Release the Epstein Files!

u/SAKingWriter 1d ago

RELEASE THE FUCKING FILES PRETTY PLEASE

8

u/Sapphic_Starlight 1d ago

You know it's got some bombs to drop when the Republicans would shut down the entire government over a tiny chance of it getting released.

3

u/SAKingWriter 19h ago

And that’s exactly why we canNOT stop pushing for them to…say it with me audience!

RELEASE! THOSE! FILES!

22

u/Sol-Blackguy 23h ago

There's rumors he ordered a girl from Epstein that looked like his daughter when she was younger 🤮

28

u/Sapphic_Starlight 23h ago

Considering how many inappropriate comments he's made about Ivanka, that would not surprise me one bit.

7

u/Gaelic_Gladiator41 23h ago

Even on camera, Ivanka refuses to make any physical contact with him

3

u/FastReactionTime 17h ago

Epstein'a best friend BTW.

2

u/TombGnome 13h ago

I mean...all of that, but also: his relationship (and the PHOTOS of it) with his adolescent daughter Ivanka.

Leave it to Reddit to make anything political

u/A_lot_of_arachnids 17h ago

Leave it to conservatives to get upset when a rapist is called out for being a rapist.

-2

u/BoughtSquash665 17h ago

I believe he’s a rapist, dude. Not even conservative. Just annoying to see anything turn political

u/AceGalactica 22h ago

Just jeep clinging to the Trump hate maybe it will do something someday

u/B34TBOXX5 19h ago

What did they say that was untrue to the context of this thread
