Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

he did say that Orbán is a better leader than him, a rare display of humility

Yeah Orban the leader of an economy smaller than Alabama.

Good advice

Donald Trump’s second White House chief of staff tried to stop him praising Adolf Hitler in part by trying to convince the then president Benito Mussolini, the Italian fascist dictator, was “a great guy in comparison”.

“He said, ‘Well, but Hitler did some good things,’” the retired marines general John Kelly told Jim Sciutto of CNN in an interview for a new book.

“I said, ‘Well, what?’ And he said, ‘Well, (Hitler) rebuilt the economy.’ But what did he do with that rebuilt economy? He turned it against his own people and against the world. And I said, ‘Sir, you can never say anything good about the guy. Nothing. I mean, Mussolini was a great guy in comparison.”

Okay that’s a little too on the nose

Pretty canny move on Kelly's part, Trump apes a lot of Mussolini's gestures, whether consciously or unconciously.

apes is right

Kind of insulting to Mussolini tbh.

"Hitler did some good things" should be immediately answered by "get the fuck out of here."

"Yeah, he killed himself."

what if Trump became a vegetarian in emulation of der fuhrer

what if Trump became a vegetable and Hitler ate him.

What if Trump lost one of his balls in emulation of Hitler.

Pretty canny move on Kelly's part, Trump apes a lot of Mussolini's gestures, whether consciously or unconciously.

I've spent the last eight years waiting for the good people of the USA to aid him in aping Mussolini's ultimate gesture.

His balls are well past their sell by date.

So he can afford to lose one.

xxp I can't think of anyone (in this country at least) who more richly deserves it.

He really is a master aper, all those hours watching The Gorilla Channel paid off.

One of the great apers

People come up to me, big strong men with tears in their eyes, they say, Sir, we have never seen a better aper.

No it's "Sir, we have never seen a better diaper."

a wetter diaper

Not a bad late-period Stones album.

No, not that.

Judge McAfee dismissed 6 of the 41 counts in the Georgia case. The prosecution can refile, though.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3ljHhR8XPA

i'm afraid i'd have to go to truth social to see the whole thing...

^^"Rats Eating Our Marijuana" for April Thread Title

Maybe if a good non-Trump one ever comes along, that would be nice.

I'll give him that one it's one of his best quotes

The marijuana one is actually about a rat infestation in the evidence room of the New Orleans police department, and an apt statement on life in these here United States in the year of the diety of your choice 2024.

Deity, although Diet-y fits too.

stoned rats sums up trump's crew pretty succinctly too.

if he even has a crew anymore...

so apparently one fairly significant development in the classified docs case is Jack Smith is now using the term "sale and delivery" which he wasn't using before. I guess the belief is he wouldn't use that term unless he actually had evidence of it and if evidence of Trump not just retaining but SELLING classified docs comes out its gonna be insane watching the GOP still find ways to stand behind him. like I don't think even the most corrupt governments on the planet have seen anything like that

The GOP will find ways to stand behind him. They will be insane. It won't matter.

as always, struck afresh that this whiny, mewling self-pitier is given a platform and a large number of people think of him as strong somehow.

I'm sure his deal making skills will be roundly praised.

Well, he is a successful businessman.

Too bad the classified docs case will never go to trial.

This may be the best thing I’ve ever watched.

Volume up and put on those dancing shoes.

Anyway the best thing I have ever watched was a man piss over the edge of a canyon

For me it’s always going to be the squirrel eating a Ritz cracker to “If This Is It” by Huey Lewis and the News.

"...you, know the famous socks case, which he actually ended up winning..."
