      My favourite thing about this is that … he’ll be remembered forever for shit like this (no pun intended).

      Think about it … JFK had famous speeches and lines like ‘We choose to go to the moon’ … Eisenhower is thought of to his line ‘the Military Industrial complex’ … Roosevelt for his ‘Day of infamy’ speech … even Reagan is remembered for his ‘Tear down this wall’ speech

      Trump? … he’ll be remembered as a senile old buffoon who shared childish videos to make fun of the citizens he was supposed to govern.

      … and it isn’t just representative of Trump … no matter how the country feels about it … his stupidity reflects on the entire nation.

        he’ll be remembered

        That’s what he wants. To have more money than other people, and to be remembered.

        In a way, that’s one nice thing about how he’s destroying America. America will be weakened so much that maybe soon some other country or some new country will rule this land, and the United States will be relegated to history books. And then, Trump will only be remembered by very specialized historians.

          In China they have these statues of a corrupt official and his wife that killed a loyal general like 1000 years ago. People spit on those statues to show they haven’t forgotten the betrayal. Maybe Americans can take a cue from that and always “remember” Trump in that way when he’s gone.

            Hear me out; we take all the statues of Confederate losers and whatever gaudy atrocious bullshit cheeto comes up with, set them all up in a swamp with catwalks placed close enough that people can spit, piss, and if so motivated and properly prepared, projectile vomit/shit on their memories.

          He doesn’t care about being remembered per se, just getting his ego stroked now. And all his shitty juvenile impulses fulfilled.

          some other country

          Yeah, because anyone who’s attempting to control this country is doing such a great job in their own that it’s something we should look forward to.

          How do you think all this shit got started? Trump didn’t really have the friends or influence domestically.

        JFK had famous speeches

        “Ich bin ein Berliner”

        Not trying to disprove your point though, being remembered for that is still dimensions better than that video.

        it’s fucking baffling, even the people we all remember as being the definition of evil are also remembered as being quite serious (in public at least), but modern fascists seem utterly hell-bent on being remembered as parodies that were somehow 100% real

      To the people like me who are confused, this is the actual video the US president posted. I figured this was too far even for that guy.

    “The president uses social media to make a point,” Johnson told reporters Monday. “He believes that he is a king and that any protest against him or his appointed officials is treason. In essence, he is a fucking traitor who never should have gotten elected the first time, let alone the second, and I and my colleagues are going to work to impeach him and remove him from office, just as soon as we take our tongues out of his asshole.”

    – Mike Johnson, if he was slightly less of a toady piece of shit traitor.

      If he ever said “fucking” or “asshole,” I’m pretty sure an alert would pop up on his son’s phone

      I wish our journalists did ANY amount of push-back because calling it satire is just a red herring and I wish they wouldn’t even engage with it.

      OK, let’s assume it is satire used to make a point. What point exactly was he making? That he IS a king and is shitting on us all?

      Yeah that’s not what satire means. And it isn’t funny either; but I know that half the pop doesn’t know any other type of “humor”. Literally shitting on other people, hahahaha

    They also don’t care he just took a wrecking ball to part of the White House. They don’t care that he has crashed the economy or broken the government. They are coward sycophants.

    I’m reminded about when he broke up a protest against police brutality to get a photo op in front of a church in 2020. I guess that sort of thing is just another tuesday
