Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

God dammit. Stop being right. Ugh. How is this asshole in this position??? He tells us the quiet part out loud. He tells us he's going to do absolutely dumb shit. Then he does dumb shit. And people see him do that dumb shit. And everyone is surprised he did the thing he said he was going to do.
He says he'll do awful shit. And everyone dismisses it, because nobody would be THAT bad, right?
I mean, he told he was going to do it if you gave him power. Then he was given power. Why are you surprised he's doing the dumb shit?
I'm more surprised that he was given power.
Twice.
People aren't used to the idea of a politician being honest, even if it's about being a fascist piece of shit
