i think trump would probably lose in an election but i also dont really want to see it play out

lag∞n, Monday, 29 August 2022 19:16 (one year ago) link

the chance that republicans could steal said election is way past uncomfortably high

lag∞n, Monday, 29 August 2022 19:17 (one year ago) link

xxp yeah, I don't think we are going to re-do the 2020 election under any circumstances. But I will not dismiss the possibility of Trump winning until he is dead and buried.

That process looks something like this:
1. Trump dies
2. Trump is buried
3. Hunter Biden’s laptop
4. Trump is exhumed
5. Trump wins presidency

Truth Social may be circling the drain anyway:

...unnamed sources say Truth Social has made only three of its contractual monthly payments to RightForge — the company that Truth Social pays to keep the platform online — since the two began working together in October of last year, and has not made any new payments since March. The company is threatening to take legal action to recoup the money, the report says... it may not be long before Truth Social ends up in the graveyard of failed social media sites.

Don't blame the voters. If he's the only racist on the ballot then who else can they vote for?

Um, not to be Captain Obvious here, but Joe Biden is absolutely a total fucking racist, and please spare me the "but Obama and Kamala" shit.

what do you think the title of this thread should reference?

this thread title is fine. I was replying to a post suggesting a new "September thread title", which clearly referred to the US politics thread, which renews monthly. maybe you could have figured that out yourself, if you tried, instead of prematurely leaping at the chance to zing me.

I think Donald Trump is just bored. Someone should get him a fidget spinner.

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 30 August 2022 17:50 (one year ago) link

Someone should introduce him to Netflix.

Heck, someone should teach him about podcasting then lock him in a bathroom and tell him to just start talking.

I want him to livetweet watching The Rehearsal

Mar - a - Lago, or 120 Days of Sodom (Boring, Maryland), Tuesday, 30 August 2022 18:25 (one year ago) link

He should record commentary tracks. To anything, really.

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 30 August 2022 18:27 (one year ago) link

The Rehearsal is... fake. It's fake, okay? And people have been saying, "Oh sir, it's not real." And it's a terrible thing. And we're going to do something about that, aren't we?

"And ... look, the name of the tournament is called Kumite, but the name of the arena ... well, if it was up to me, in my opinion it should have been Trump Arena, we offered them a very good deal to call it Trump, but they didn't want Trump, which was a mistake, in my opinion, the tournament would have been a lot more successful, a lot less underground. Frankly, many, many more people would have heard of it. Instead, people are saying it was a failure, the Kumite tournament. Should have been Pay-per-view, they begged me to reconsider. But that's OK, it was their choice to turn down all that money. It's a freestyle fight, kumite, menaing almost anything goes. Well, a lot of people don't know this, but the word 'kumite' has its roots in Japanese, where it, where it translates roughly to mean 'grappling hands.' And frankly there is a lot of grappling in this movie, maybe too much grappling. But "kumite" ... Jean Claude Van Damme is a man of honor, so yes, he is literally grappling with his enemies, but he is also grappling metaphorically, to choose to do the right thing, to win - and this is important - to win with honor. The Kumite becomes not about the death touch, not about love - though the woman, the woman is very beautiful, the most beautiful - it is about grappling with the morality of vengeance and emerging victorious not by beating his enemy Chong Li - a cheater - but by finally turning himself in to Helmer and Rawlins and restoring his honor."

"By 2019, tensions between the two men and their worldviews burst into the open. After disputes between the two leaders over Iran, Syria, and NATO, Trump could be heard blasting Macron as a “pain in the ass” to a White House gathering of international ambassadors to the United Nations. Trump’s former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham also wrote in a memoir that Trump had privately called Macron a “a wuss guy” and “a hundred twenty pounds of fury.”"

"a wuss guy" said the hair-sprayed makeup wearer who's never carried anything heavier than a five iron in forty years

i noticed that too— lol like Macron could totally take you, Donnie. he’d use your sweat to glide away to victory

Kind of impressive his total lack of self-awareness or capacity for reflection.

I mean I would be a nightmare of a person just like him, but it must be...something...to go through life like that. Liberating in a way.

He called Ted Cruz’s wife “ugly” and accused his dad of assassinating JFK.

And now said Cruz moistly grovels at trump's feet, hoping for a pat on the head

What's up with the framed Time magazine cover(s) in the box? Looks like the start of a "help me identify the crimes in this photo" thread.

BrianB, Wednesday, 31 August 2022 12:20 (one year ago) link

I don't see any emails there=innocent!

Seriously, though, there are people that have gone to jail for a fraction of the infractions displayed here.

Trump's incompetence is legendary, and the fact that people again and again keep sacrificing themselves at his throne of stupidity boggles the mind. The body count of people tainted (or convicted) for covering up for him, for enabling him, is higher than that pile of burgers when he invited that sports team to the White House.

Some people are already mocking, saying, oh, Time magazine, soooo classified, but that's the whole point. He had all this important classified stuff mixed in with his personal shit. Reportedly he had highly classified stuff in his desk with his passports, which further underscores chain of custody. Reportedly the DOJ has evidence that Trump Inc. *moved* classified documents in response to the subpoena, no doubt because perpetually entitled, consequence-free Trump insisted on grabbing what he could and no one could or would stop him. It just blows the mind the extent to which Trump and his team just so brazenly blew off the DOJ. You'd think *someone* there would have recognized the extent of the criminality, and hey, maybe someone did, because clearly someone ultimately ratted him out.
