He's an insecure, narcissistic, ignorant, idiot... and this is the reason why so many Americans worship him... because he makes them feel like their negative personality traits are a good thing.

Trump is a dumb person’s idea of a smart person.

Trump is a poor person’s idea of a rich person.

Trump is a weak person’s idea of a strong person.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

He’s demented, a convicted fraud, and a rapist who can’t stop lying. Oh yeah and the treason.

Pro tip: if you don’t like melting down and storming out of courtrooms— then don’t rape people.

The more you know 💫

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago

Or maybe just don't rape people?

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

That's asking a lot.

That is simply not a reasonable option for Orange Hitler.

LOL more or less exactly what ran through my head when I read the headline. Not the specific image, but the sentiment.

Sisters, brothers, and others - I give you the Republican Party’s chief representative of all things they consider good and holy.

This is what never facing a consequence until you’re almost 80 years old looks like.

[-] EvilLootbox@lemmy.world 38 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It's pretty clear these tantrums are a form of marketing for the fools who take what this guy says at face value. He stormed out!? IT MUST BE A WITCH HUNT!

truly pathetic

[-] SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

What if he's just a giant man-baby who gets up in front of a crowd and spendshiswhole time whining?

[-] fine_sandy_bottom@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 10 months ago

Exactly. He just showed up to act persecuted. That's it.

… are his hands really that small or was it photoshopped?

[-] ABoxOfPhotons@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Next to his ego, everything looks small.

Hope it's like 100 million or more.

Kick him right in the muffin-top above his micro-penis.

Is there a way to block all posts with anything Trump in the title? I can't take it anymore.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 42 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Why? I love it! He's taking ass-whooping after ass-whooping for the most part. Saddle up, it's election season and democracy is literally on the line. If there's one year to stay in tune, it's now.

Fair if one isn't American, though this clearly has global implications and we could use all the help we can get to push back against bots.

[-] DandomRude@lemmy.world 30 points 10 months ago

That's true. I'm just on the verge of losing all hope in humanity. The fact that Trump still appears to be a suitable presidential candidate to many Americans is a major contributing factor.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah... I hear you. Unfortunately ignorance and echo-chambers abound and low-educated uninformed voters are exploited by massive right-wing megaphones.

If it makes you feel better, Trump never once won the popular vote and the polls the last 2 election cycles have skewed toward Trump because Millennials and Gen Z are underrepresented. Moreover there really isn't any sign that Trump is magically garnering more Trump supporters who weren't already. To the contrary, 4 years have passed with his most ardent base of boomers dying off while a massive number of new young adults have since entered the fold. (here's hoping Taylor Swift keeps pushing Voter registration). Trump has no incumbent advantage. The economy (by Republican standards) is doing great. Everyone is on to the maga attempt to steal elections and that has for the most part been dismantled.

So assuming high turnout, the fascists will be routed once again.

[-] DandomRude@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Thank you for the good news. It's refreshing to hear something positive for a change. I hope the situation develops similarly here in Germany. It's great to see hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets to rally against the resurgence of right-wing populism and fascism in our country. So apparently not all hope is lost yet. Let's hope for the best.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Hear, hear. Good luck, my friend.

[-] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 6 points 10 months ago

Nothing anyone says will change my vote. Not paying attention will save my sanity. Especially because I’m in a swing state and they’ve already started calling me.

[-] Wrench@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I get it. I avoided the national spectacle of the 2016 election, and avoided most political news for most of the Trump presidency. I voted blue every chance I got and went about my life trying to ignore the MAGA corruption.

But the 2020 election and subsequent insurrection attempt woke me the fuck up. Our democracy, and really US politics for the foreseeable future, are at stake. We need to Republicans to be absolutely neutered, or this blight is going to continue until something breaks.

We have to be angry. We have to shut these fascist fucks down hard so they slink back into the shadows.

I tend to agree but it's important to push back against right-wing trolls, family, and friends. Not necessarily to convince them, but to ensure they don't sway the apathetic who go with the currents (what these right-wing operatives refer to as normies).

There will be calls to apathy and defeatism and muddying of the waters and there must be some rebuke to the onslaught of right-wing propaganda both on and offline.

Get others out to register and vote and make sure your crazy uncle's rants don't go unchecked.

I'm not American so I'm just grabbing a chair, popcorn and watch your country's best clowns run their circus.

I'm rooting for these particular clowns to continue to fall on their faces so that hopefully the lesser evil clown wins.

In the Boost app you can block keywords. I assume other apps can also do it
