Tim Apple is like the only positive thing that came out of Trump's mouth/presidency, except for

very legal, very cool

perfect phone calls

gushing about chocolate cake while bombing ~~Iraq~~ Syria

big, red button for Diet Coke room service in White House

Former President Drink Bleach was a source of many quips or words, good words for those reading along at a 4th grade level...

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Look, he's got a couple pithy keepers, I'm secure enough in my political orientation to admit that. I always joke about perfect phone calls now lol

Edit: also, thuh BEST/most POWERFUL wordz

[-] Salvo@aussie.zone 12 points 11 months ago

He did restore faith that George W Bush decision to finish reading a children’s book when the planes were crashing into the trade centre was the best choice.

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Idk man.

Trump was easily the most comedically entertaining president. Like, not in a good way. Like, cofveve or whatever wtf?

I'll present you with Shane Gillis doing a bit

K I still need someone to sit down with me and explain the whole "Covfefe" thing

Edit: in homeopathic sized doses, he is objectively hilarious and tolerable. But his word salads make me ~~wanna~~ needa self-cannabinalize

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

It was a tweet. He tweeted this absolute nonsense and everyone was like "wtf is he on drugs?"

That's it.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

But like has anyone tried to explain or postulate what was meant specifically by covfefe, like what was the context?

Edit:

covfefe = coverage

[-] Jesus_666@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago

He probably just fat-fingered his phone with a half-written tweet open. If he'd just followed that up with "...coverage I'm actually the awesomest president ever blah blah blah" nobody would've noticed.

But instead it turned into this whole thing about how the tweet was meaningful and people were just too dumb to get it. Which just made him look ridiculous as usual.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

I'm so glad I have male-ballerina fingers 😊

[-] HopeOfTheGunblade@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago

Yes. Many people have tried to explain it. Parts of the qult are claiming that it's a cure for the covid vaccine, (Co)Cobalt, (V)Vanadium, and two (Fe) iron.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Nah, its simple and I literally just explained it (as evinced by [the context of] his tweet)

[-] HopeOfTheGunblade@kbin.social 6 points 11 months ago

That's what actually happened, yes. That doesn't mean that many people who worship him have not tried to find an explanation that means it was completely intentional, and I think it's worth knowing about how far people will go in his defence, even when it requires them to twist themselves into pretzels to defend something that would have been completely fine if he had just laughed it off.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I will never understand. Like how does anyone seriously politicize something that random and banal

[-] HopeOfTheGunblade@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago

Trump is a narcissist, he is incapable of admitting any flaw or fault, be it in an accidentally sent typo tweet, or letting the experts address a public health issue rather than pushing himself to the forefront and suggesting putting sterilizing lights into the body.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

He actually did in his ShoppingChannel commercial today, the one with the Trump trading cards or whatever.

He referred to all the muscles the "artists" gave him that he definitely doesn't have IRL.

I was like "Holy Shit, did he just like self-deprecate for the first time in his life?!". I almost fell out of my couch

[-] HopeOfTheGunblade@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Yeah, I caught that in a video from a content creator I watch. Not sure what to make of it, still thinking about it. Actual personal growth would be pretty surprising from the guy who kneecapped the pandemic response because he was worried he'd smear his makeup.

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I mean it was midnight. So, I think he was trying to say something about despite a day of bad press coverage, coffee? Has allowed him to...

Fall asleep face first on his keyboard?

Idk.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Sometimes when you're getting up of the john you get that Vagus nerve thing where you 1/2-passout when getting up. Maybe that was it

[-] Sagifurius@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

He was on episodes of WWE wrestling, im pretty sure he just spelled "kayfabe" wrong

[-] Zehzin@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Bush Jr's asinine ramblings were funnier IMO. "Now watch this drive" lives in my head rent free.

[-] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Fool me twice … can’t get fooled again

[-] Sagifurius@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

I'm pretty sure he was referring to "kayfabe" and didn't quite get it right

[-] SeaJ@lemm.ee 14 points 11 months ago

Meatball Ron is pretty funny. Normally his nicknames for people are fucking stupid.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Please...Im gunna need a list of his greatest "hits"

Edit: Ron DeathSentence, I'm officially deceased 🤣

[-] atx_aquarian@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Covfefe has been a pretty fun word, as well as referring to "Mooch" as a unit of time.

[-] DontTreadOnBigfoot@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.

[-] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

U got me, but thats nitpicky lol

Edit: i like how its set up so he can easily chunk it together

Person = woman or man Camera = tv

the stable-est

Like where voluminous bullshit and horseshit are generated on the daily. I'd say even when he's constipated he always REGULAR lol😎
