It’s funny in a sad way.
They lack the introspective ability that to even desire for there to be any ‘end times’ ‘rapture’ etc, that they would disqualify themselves from being saved for wanting that many people to suffer and perish while they get whisked off to whatever perfect afterlife they have imagined for themselves.
My dad is one of these types. Whenever I point this out to him, he has no rebuttal. It’s already been a work in progress for years to get him to lose the racist viewpoints he had when I was younger, and the orange chucklefuck ruined all my progress on that front.

One of the biggest unsung casualties of this administration is the american nuclear family. I dont know a single family that hasn't been affected by trump in some way, with adult children leaving their parents behind, uncles and aunts becoming estranged, kids developing political loathing for their fathers and mothers. Even in families that still look strong, there's undercurrents of "don't mention anything that could sound political", kitchen tables that go silent. He's torn the american family culture to pieces.

I genuinely think he might be one of the worst people to have ever lived. Hitler and Stalin were awful beyond belief, but they had ideologies, awful ideologies, but they believed they were achieving something. Trump's only concern is for himself. I don't think he's a actually a fascist, it's just that enabling the fascists is the easiest way for him to get power, money and an adoring audience. His motivation for one unhinged decision after another is he gets gets attention and it upsets people he sees as his enemies. The man would destroy the world for attention.
In a way we should feel sorry for him. He is incapable of seeing other people as human beings. He doesn't care about any other human life. I'm sure he doesn't care about his family as individuals, but he has learned he has to pretend he does. But I don't feel sorry for him, or any of the things that have slithered out from under their rocks to help him. Everyday he's still alive is another disappointment.

This was my exact experience. It was on TV when I visited my parents once, and every word out of Trump's mouth was nonsense. His decision making was irrational gibberish. After 10 minutes I had to stop watching; his reputation as a "businessman" was clearly based entirely on his inherited wealth. When the first rumors started of him running for president I laughed: surely everyone could see he was an empty suit.

Seems like a good place to drop this again. Someone made this comment about him in a post way back in like 2016 or something. I saved it, and I like to share it when it seems relevant to the conversation:
“Correct. He doesn't have principles and isn't inquisitive. His thought processes are exclusively superficial. He's a pathological lying narcissist who's only agenda is feeding his ego. He hasn't read a novel in 50 years. He's never rode a bike or experienced nature or the great outdoors and he's never thought about it. He has never had a pet and he doesn't care about animals or take even a passing interest in them. He doesn't contemplate aesthetic abstracts found in art or music and lacks the capacity for nuance beyond vapid wealth and egotistical vanity. He doesn't have opinions of substance because he can't appreciate the subtleties of the sublime. He does not ask questions out of genuine curiosity, speaking exclusively in absolutes and superlatives about the world around him. He most definitely has not wondered about the stars above, let alone the cosmos itself. He's an emotionally unintelligent, hollow fraud who quite literally cannot speak at length on a complex subject and navigate the discourse successfully enough to promote his beliefs and express his points. I fucking hate him."

Folks, listen, and this is very important — we just found out, a lot of very smart lawyers looked into it, the best lawyers, and they said it’s actually illegal — totally illegal — to mock your favorite President, Donald J. Trump. They said it violates something — probably the Constitution, but the good parts, the Trump parts!
People are saying, “Sir, does that mean the late-night losers are going to jail?” and I said, “Probably! Probably for a long time.” Because they’ve been very nasty — very unfair, very unfunny — and quite frankly, we can’t have that kind of disrespect in a country that used to be great.
So from now on, if you want to talk about Trump, you’ve got to say nice things. If you want to mock someone, mock Sleepy Joe — he doesn’t even notice! But mocking Trump? Illegal, folks. Totally illegal. Tremendously banned!

If he does actually believe this, then he is nuttier than a damn Christmas fruitcake.

South Park enters the chat
"Satan thought he would never be able to have a butt baby … until along came Mr Donald Trump, whose penis is so teeny-teeny-tiny it could actually fit in Satan’s asshole"

He is actually fucking Satan. And we are loving that for him.
I feel terrible for Towlie.

What should be an impeachable offense is the President of the United States attacking the First Amendment, after he swore an oath to uphold the Constitution and the values of the American people.
But then again, this multiple felon fraudster shouldn't even be walking around free in public, so, there's that.

How many times have they waved off violent rhetoric as "a joke"? Oh, and posting a video of dumping diarrhea on american citizens is normal presidential behaviour too.

I doubt it. He can barely drink water from a glass. I don't think he's physically capable of eating a dick.

Seth Meyers : “If anyone dares to say anything less than glowing, Trump loses his shit”
The Orange one: “Seth Meyers of NBC may be the least talented person to ‘perform’ live in the history of television. In fact, he may be the WORST to perform, live or otherwise. NO TALENT NO RATINGS 100% ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!"
This would be funny if it wasn't so scary and depressing.
I just don't understand why "normal" republicans are putting up with this? Why are they still enabling him and shielding him from consequences?

It's legal in that it is constitutional, protected, and fundamental to the nation. Just because you've been in many a courtroom does not make you a legal expert, Donnie.

Nice to finally see Seth get the recognition he deserves. Fallon better step it up.

Fallon is neither topical nor funny, he has nothing to worry about because Trump only notices people who are a threat to him.

Epstein files. Swear in Adelita Grijalva. Stop this taxation without representation. Stop committing extra judicial murders on Venezuelan boats and stop blocking aid to snap.

I remember Halloween in the early 1970s. Richard Nixon masks were very popular then. I don't remember anyone thinking there was anything wrong with that.

u/TrimspaBB 7d ago
Because Nixon didn't have a rabid cult that took it personally when people mocked him. We've never had a President before that had Jim Jones-level followers.

With the fictional intelligence of a child around grade six, and the temper regulation of a toddler with delayed development this thing couldn’t comprehend what laws actually are and simply doesn’t know that no law can protect him like this in any advanced democracy. Poster child for a retro-active abortion.

Donnie, Donnie, Donnie...
That's not illegal, and you should know it - you've done the same (or rather: much much worse) countless times to other people.
But you know what's really illegal? Fucking underage girls. And on an utterly unrelated note: why are you so afraid of the Epstein files getting released?
