"The August 2020 US Politics Thread is highly thought of, but nobody likes me. It can only be my personality. That's all."

we get better tires for less?

Trump should make his own tires. They could be called "So Tired, by Trump." And then after a few minivans inevitably fly off the road maybe he'll lose 5% of his support.

I love that: “the media portrayal”

dogg, I’m watching him shit out of his dumb mouth directly into a camera. sometimes there’s no “portrayal”.

cmon down to the white house where we get better tires for less

The radical left Democrats are very savvy at boycotting things they don't need, like Goya products and grapes and Sean Hannity.

Also a major missed opportunity to turn "Radical Left Democrats" into "Radi(c)al Left Democrats"

Maga fans should stack Goodyear tires, climb inside, and then light them on fire in protest.

how do tires ban hats? what a world!

Go buy Goodyears but make them write MAGA in white paint on each tire.

They should make MAGA tires that say MAGA on the treads so that when you speed through the dirt and mud and across the Democrat state capital lawn you leave a trail of MAGAMAGAMAGA everywhere you go.

They can do this with shoes, too. You're welcome, MAGA

Calling for a boycott of Goodyear (headquartered in Akron Ohio) doesn’t seem like the smartest move to me but I guess that’s why he’s the president.

these people will absolutely choose Trump over their jobs

My MAGA tires will also say "Don't Tread on Me."

fire the secret service!

He should definitely switch to something cheaper and less reliable.

Michelin’s out, they refused to award the Mar-A-Lago restaurant any stars.

perhaps it's time to recognize tires themselves as the problem?

MAKE TRUMP FRED FLINTSTONE AGAIN

Is there even another manufacturer of tires in the United States? It seems like he’s telling people to buy German/french/Italian etc.

MAGA CHUDs would lap it up if all Presidential vehicles replaced tires with tank treads.

warning: 2014 fact found on google, needs citation:

There are only two major American-owned tire manufacturers: Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. and Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. Each of them has multiple manufacturing plants in the U.S.

ban goodyear until they bring back the ugly hats

As the idea of actually looking into this is giving me stupidity fatigue, can someone briefly explain what the fuck 'Goodyear Tires bans MAGA hats' even fucking means?

Like, given the source, he could be mad at a literal tire he believes to be sentient for all I goddamn know.

Goodyear should not be allowed to make tires until the year is good.

Trump hallucinates that the right rear of his limo has grown a cartoon mouth and starts talking to him in a bad Edward G. Robinson voice. 'Hey, Donnie, me and the boys have been talking, see, and we think your hats are stupid. We don't cotton to them anymore, see?'

isn't it illegal for the President to call for a boycott of an American business

I think so, Congress should get right on that.

It would be awesome if after all of this he was impeached and removed for calling for a tire boycott.

Looking forward to LeBron's reaction

liar inspires tire ire

nice

MAGA choir sets fire to tire pyre

I mean that's just where we're at at this point. What is anyone even going to do about it. He'll just do something else equally low-level illegal a day and a half from now.

Perhaps he will promote a particular brand of pinto beans from the Oval Office.

Oh, wait.

Goodyear prospects dire, admits disappointed MAGA-attired tire admirer

brat snaps in crap cap flap

can someone briefly explain what the fuck 'Goodyear Tires bans MAGA hats' even fucking means?

It's a simple company ban on political attire, not "a ban on maga hats" and he fucking knows it, more riling up the base. But yes, a president proposing a boycott should be illegal. Yet here we are.

xp I'm reading these in Jimmy Stewart's voice

Grounded frequent flyer forced to find fresh tire provider for his lowrider after whiner declares Goodyear undesired.

“What I think you ought to do is boycott Apple until such time as they give that security number,’’ Mr. Trump said, admitting it was a spur-of-the-moment thought. “How do you like that? I just thought of it: Boycott Apple.’’

yup, exhibit number #13158994 demonstrating that being a psychotic hatemonger makes you instantly age an extra 15-20 years. I seriously would have guess she was at least 40.
