Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

Search: "move on her like a bitch"

Destroy: everything else

"Trump never said he had tapes, he just inferred that he did. And it is not intimidating a witness since Comey is telling the truth and knew that any tapes would prove his version of events."

everyone is classic but not everyone should be president

President Don once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a savior machine

Trump lingered last in line for brains
And the one he got was sorta rotten and insane
Small hands (so sad!), a rust-hued clown
Is Trump fast asleep or rockin' out with Three Doors Down?

Murricuns electing Donald Trump: Classic or dud?

haven't thought about this guy for a while. i think he was popular in the 80s?

Overrated

I think he'd make really great hog slurry. You can really tell a lot about a man by the way his pureed corpus fills a trough.

red means 'run, son. numbers add up to nothin'

shelter me from the putin and the banker
i bankrupted casinos. who the fuck does that?

Cronenbergian

Like a hastily-assembled meat collage.

hard to tell who is more obsessed with him the right or the left.

also the media love/hate thing is so cute. get a room you two.

“I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me.”

He is only as wicked and hellspawned as the hatred and resentment simmering in the heartland of the most violent nation ever

I think you might need to look into a thing called history if you think this is the most violent nation ever.

you suggest Panama?

the 1997 NYer profile of Trump is start-to-finish amazing but if I had to pick a favorite part it's this https://t.co/reqFZ79eZd pic.twitter.com/Qnwnuiyxqh

libs/"centrists" for sure

it's sobering to realize that Trump is probably the most famous person in human history now

*not adjusted for population inflation

indicative of a deep flaw in our universe

truly he is king of the narcissist personality disorder sufferers

i think jesus still beats him out unless we're only counting contemporaneous fame

Michael Jackson sold a hundred million records

contemporaneous fame. MJ is up there but there are twice as many people on Earth now than there were in 1984.

Donlad Turmp sold a hundred million and one. Sad!

Part of my problem is that I have to do a lot of things myself. It takes so much time. Julio Iglesias is coming to Mar-a-Lago, but I have to call Julio, I have to have lunch with Julio. I have Pavarotti coming. Pavarotti doesn’t perform for anybody. He’s the highest-paid performer in the world. A million dollars a performance. The hardest guy to get. If I call him, he’ll do it—for a huge amount less. Why? Because they like me, they respect me, I don’t know.

I think you might need to look into a thing called history if you think this is the most violent nation ever.

idk Native American genocide plus slavery plus nuclear bomb-dropping... surely we're in the running

probably a million people killed by u.s. in vietnam/laos/cambodia. nobody will ever know how many. not pol pot numbers, but still...

mao would be the world champ though.

it's sobering to realize that Trump is probably the most famous person in human history now

this is a ridiculous statement

Man, if only Trump would tweet that he's bigger than Jesus...

well he's certainly fatter

stahp posting this I cant handle it

The relatively-youthful US has certainly done what it could to catch up with the accrued violence of much older nations, I'll grant you that. Maybe Donnie will get us there.

My god, it's made of scrote.

I feel badly for his clothes.

trump wearing a shirt with "trump" on it is like that thing where ppl wear band t-shirts to the same band's concert only 1000x worse

If you blow the image up to its full size (not that I'm recommending you do so) the swollen, boiled-looking bullfrog neck is almost Lovecraftian.

dainty watch worn to make hands look bigger.

Is he going to be remembered as the worst thing ever? Would be deeply ironic if he just got forgotten but then people wouldn't learn from history.
JUst hope his wrongness doesn't get outdone shortly after he dies painfully,choking to death on a shagpile carpet would be fitting, though too redolent of Elvis.
But fingers crossed he doesn't act as a harbinger of things to come.

Just would be so funny if he went to all this bother and wasn't remembered in 20 years time.

love to see it

*gasp*

you mean it's not that easy to make magic millions?

Sad trombone

It was always blindingly obvious that taking Truth Social public was solely a device to enrich Trump and a small handful of his co-conspirators by soaking a few hundred thousand rubes along with any greedy, but slow-footed speculators who tried to enrich themselves by grabbing onto Trump's coattails. All that talk of a $5B valuation they floated to the public ahead of time was pure hogwash, but it was catnip to the media, so the rubes all got the word. And here we are.

I wonder if Merchan has any leeway in the number of alternate jurors he can seat along with the main twelve. I think the stress of this trial is going to eat jurors alive.

Yeah, it occurred to me that the people most likely to be selected are those who are the least aware that Trump will happily badmouth them and, if possible, their families to his army of online cronies (how many of these unfortunate souls are gonna wind up getting doxxed). Like, actually being selected as an impartial juror in a Trump trial probably means that you've been living in some sort of bubble for the past eight years minimum and that reality is about to come at you fast.

I'm honestly surprised that it has held onto as much value as it has for this long, it should be much closer to zero

xp

there are some fairly strict restrictions on sharing the identities of the jurors in this trial, I think this judge would take it very seriously if Trump or his team revealed them

judge also seems serious about giving Trump some jail time if he's found in contempt, which Trump seems hellbent on doing

Per the NYT:

And Justice Merchan is now scolding Blanche because Trump was muttering. “I won’t tolerate that,” Merchan says, raising his voice. “I will not have any jurors intimidated in this courtroom.” He asks Blanche to speak to Trump, and Blanche quietly responds, "Yes, your honor." He then gives Trump the requested talking-to, and Trump looks furious.

I am delighted, frankly. (Not least because it humiliates both Blanche and Trump.)

too bad Trump's sleeping through all this

Yeah I was just thinking about how in a weird way this may be the most directly he's heard in a long while how people actually think about him who aren't slavering/paid devotees.

What is this “AI” and how did it learn trump is dumb as fuck must be a wise software

In any event, six jurors have already been seated so any fears that this would be endless can be set aside.

Any ilxors on the jury?

Garu G

apparently they're going to have 6 alternates which seems optimistic

Standard, though. Foreperson is an Irish guy and I would love the idea of someone from one of Trump's 'nice' countries for immigrants fucking him over.

Further re challenges etc from the NYT:

As they work to select the 12 people who will make up the jury panel, each side gets 10 peremptory challenges, which enable them to exclude prospective jurors without providing reasons. So far, Trump's lawyers have used 6 of their challenges and the prosecutors have used 4.

My understanding being that if/when they run out they actually have to provide reasons going forward which the judge can accept or deny, as has happened a couple of times already. So it's not like Blanche can automatically ask for everyone to get canned.

There should be a rich vein of social media posts dissing Trump that Blanche can mine for grounds for dismissal without using his peremptory challenges.

he should be on trial for negligent genocide

i mean i could only hope someone that smart was on my jury. for my sham porn star hush money campaign malfeasance trial. she would see through the government's lies!

That was how I got out of jury duty the last time I was called, a couple of years ago. I explained to the judge that I was a freelance journalist who had to be able to pursue individual stories on my own time so I couldn't "take off work" and they let me go. Good thing, too; it was some kind of child sexual abuse trial that was projected to take six to eight weeks, as I recall, and even if I'd been collecting a regular paycheck I wouldn't want to spend two months hearing about that.
