Human shit would of course support this.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

This is the setup to the wildest aristocrats joke. Once somebody releases the video of trump banging his daughter in a room full of shit it will be complete.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 13 points 4 hours ago

They eat his shit daily, so why not watch him play with it

[–] Toneswirly@lemmy.world 32 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Republicans don't understand satire or metaphor. They think trolling is wit.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 hours ago

Don't fall for it. Trump is using poop to deflect from the pee. Never forget the pee! Release the Epstein files and put this guy in a cell already. It's finally time for the victim's of these rich powerful people to win one.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 5 points 5 hours ago

Ah we finally got a real president with such class and decorum -ppl that voted for orange

I really hope dems keep using that against them but they are spineless until proven otherwise. I would drooling at all this ammo just handed to me.

Pedofile shits all over America. GOP celebrates

He is using satire to make a point.

If only that were satire

[–] MajorasTerribleFate@lemmy.zip 4 points 4 hours ago

Shatire. As Sean Connery might have called it.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 8 points 6 hours ago

Yeah that's not what satire means. And it isn't funny either; but I know that half the pop doesn't know any other type of "humor". Literally shitting on other people, hahahaha

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 13 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

At least I have more dignity and self respect than a large portion of the people running my country

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 3 points 6 hours ago

You'd probably also be more suited to run it.

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, technically: the most powerful man in the world cannot do satire, because it requires punching up.

[–] moondoggie@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

There is a lot of punching up he can do: morality, intelligence, compassion, basic human decency. When you’re at the very bottom of something, there’s nowhere else to punch but up.

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 1 points 3 hours ago

That doesn't sound like satire either and it wouldn't be his job anyway.

[–] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 42 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

They do because they have no choice. Their ability to think for themselves has been compromised. Think of them like Ophiocordyceps fungi: basically, they have zero control over their own behavior outside of their servitude to Tantrumus Maximus. If he wills it, they see it done- without question and without consciousness.

[–] regdog@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

There is no need to bring biology into this. They have been taken over by fascism.

Oh, yeah. Totally. Exactly what I was thinking.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

Classic ophiocordyceps fungi shit.

"The president uses social media to make a point," Johnson told reporters Monday. "He believes that he is a king and that any protest against him or his appointed officials is treason. In essence, he is a fucking traitor who never should have gotten elected the first time, let alone the second, and I and my colleagues are going to work to impeach him and remove him from office, just as soon as we take our tongues out of his asshole."

-- Mike Johnson, if he was slightly less of a toady piece of shit traitor.

[–] moondoggie@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

If he ever said “fucking” or “asshole,” I’m pretty sure an alert would pop up on his son’s phone

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 161 points 17 hours ago (3 children)

Sycophants. That's all that's left in his inner circle.

[–] rayyy@piefed.social 5 points 3 hours ago

Beyond the inner circle, Republicans are scared shit-less of stepping out of line. Those who dare are under death threats or they are fired/primaried/removed.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 8 points 5 hours ago

That's by design. Remember what a revolving door his first administration was? He learned from that and surrounded himself with spineless sycophants this time around.

[–] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 25 points 13 hours ago

That’s all it ever was.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 10 hours ago

Live by the poop, die by the diarrhea.

[–] don@lemmy.ca 81 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Time to make AI videos of trump eating actual shit from a horse’s ass, go crazy and flood their zone with ‘em.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 40 points 15 hours ago

Straight from Putin's ass.

My favourite thing about this is that .... he'll be remembered forever for shit like this (no pun intended).

Think about it ... JFK had famous speeches and lines like 'We choose to go to the moon' ... Eisenhower is thought of to his line 'the Military Industrial complex' ... Roosevelt for his 'Day of infamy' speech ... even Reagan is remembered for his 'Tear down this wall' speech

Trump? ... he'll be remembered as a senile old buffoon who shared childish videos to make fun of the citizens he was supposed to govern.

.... and it isn't just representative of Trump ... no matter how the country feels about it ... his stupidity reflects on the entire nation.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 5 points 6 hours ago

… and it isn’t just representative of Trump … no matter how the country feels about it … his stupidity reflects on the entire nation.

This. I don't think about what Trump will be remembered for as much as what mark will he leave on America. His orange face will forever be included in the lists of US presidents reminding everyone how stupid this country has become. The monuments he's building and reforming will stay in Washington for centuries. The broken alliances, dismantled institutions, discarded laws... The US will never be the same after Trump and it will be his real legacy.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

JFK had famous speeches

"Ich bin ein Berliner"

Not trying to disprove your point though, being remembered for that is still dimensions better than that video.

He really won the hearts and minds of the jelly donut crowd

[–] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 28 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

His legacy will be that of a cautionary tale on how not to be the most embarrassing footnote in American history.

His grave should be the only location where public dedication is legalized.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Oh, Lord, this guy really drank the Kool-Aid. (jk)

fun fact : in the U.K. the word “trump” is slang for “fart”

i really believe that we need to start using that colloquialism a lot more frequently

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 9 points 12 hours ago

That's neat. Here it's slang for shithead who's destroying the community
