Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Posting videos of me with a crown is really gonna show these No Kings protestors that I am not a king.

[–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 54 points 4 days ago (1 children)

He's not trying to show he's not a king. He's trying to show he doesn't give a shit what you think.

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 28 points 4 days ago (4 children)

While literally and figuratively giving a shit about what people think.

This shit just makes me roll my eyes. He's a stupid 80 year old man baby.

I would love for a reporter to say "Mr Trump. You posted a video of you in a King costume dump fecal matter on American citizens. Do you see yourself as a king shitting on America?"

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 43 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Someone needs to be asking these kind of important, pressing questions. Unfortunately all news media have been banned from the White House for not signing the alternative facts pledge of allegiance.

[–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 10 points 4 days ago

I've been saying for years that someone should just fucking ask him some questions. Americans are pathetic at this point. No one asked if he's fucking stupid when he wanted to nuke a tornado. Literally anything he says, someone should ask him if he's seriously that stupid, or just an asshole. But i guess just nodding and agreeing with their god emperor is one way to do it.

[–] NutWrench@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago

This is that "liberal news media" Republicans keep yammering on about. The one that's all owned by five corporations. They're not on anyone's side but their billionaire owners.

[–] Lexam@lemmy.world 90 points 4 days ago (4 children)

He is trying to incite violence.

[–] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 4 days ago

it’s the only thing they’re prepared for

what the actual fuck is going on

[–] Tryenjer@lemmy.world 22 points 4 days ago

People voted for a known rapist and now are surprised that their nation gets fucked.

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

America elected a narcissist psychopath to turn America into a brutal dictatorship.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 11 points 4 days ago

Not just a narcissist; a malignant narcissist. Which is the worst kind.

We are being ruled over by a 13 year old shitlord.

[–] titanicx@lemmy.zip 58 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It's this the same Donald j Trump, current president of the United States, that raped children, along with his self professed best friend, Jeffrey r Epstein?

[–] leadore@lemmy.world 39 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Can someone please take that video and have AI insert a cut to a shot of his diaper filling up, he gets a surprised "oh-uh" look on his face, then cut back to the original where the shit shoots out? Also maybe put a "Fisher-Price" label on the crown and a three stooges kind of look on his face?

Also I hate to encourage use of AI slop generators, but it looks like 'our side' needs to start making some mocking AI vids too.

Edit to add: I just thought of something else, the crowd his shit falls on should all be wearing red MAGA hats and waving MAGA signs. Some could be farmers holding signs saying Soybeans FOR SALE Cheap!

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 20 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (6 children)

We can do better than AI slop. We can actually get actors to pretend to be Trump and puppeters to give life to his tiny deformed penis.

And this was actually done on South Park. AI was not used to generate that; they have the behind the scenes footage filming it.

Bown liquid? It's call shit, he's shitting on americans.

[–] NutWrench@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago

No no. The New York Time said it was some mysterious "brown liquid." Who KNOWS what it might have been? Could have been anything, right? Like a couple of tons of diarrhea.

This is what "sane washing" looks like.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 54 points 4 days ago

I am officially tired of all the winning.

[–] etherphon@midwest.social 49 points 4 days ago

He has been known to shit all over everything, glad he's finally willing to admit it.

[–] moshankey@lemmy.world 48 points 4 days ago

Emptying his diaper.

[–] reddifuge@lemmy.world 36 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Donald Shitler.

Lol what did he load up a fighter with a bunch of his diapers?

[–] MrVilliam@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 days ago

Slop into the trough for all the obedient little piggies, fattening up to get biggest piggy awards at the county fair, blissfully unaware of the slaughterhouse they're heading to right afterwards.

Its a video of Trump shitting his pants

[–] DarkDecay@lemmy.world 25 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Every video of trumps shows him dumping shit. Usually out of his puckered, disgusting mouth though

I really hope the future USA is embarrassed by all of this.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 44 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The current USA is embarrassed by this, don't let the news fool you

@xc2215x

Your "brown liquid" smells like shit, as does the euphemism.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Is there a GIF of this video? I want to share it around without linking to the original or a whole news article.

(In general, I think Trumps Twitter page posts need to be easy to share around so that people can easily see the filth produced by the man, and not the cleaned up new bites.)

This is so fucking dumb and childish I can't even.
