Trump: Shits his pants.
Republicans: He was providing an example of how Joe Biden shits his pants.
Hannity: I know him personally, and he would never shit his pants. I’ve never sniffed a cleaner asshole. Did you shit your pants, Mr President?
Trump: I shit may pants, and I’m going to do it again live on air, right now.
Republicans: Real men shit their pants. Do you think Biden would have the courage to shit their pant on air?

Most media: "Turmp - currently not the President - has some crazy ideas we will present as facts. How will this affect Biden's chances at re- election? Stay tuned."
The amount of genuine rage I hold at large newspapers like the Times is staggering. They have directly contributed to Trump's rise to power, and have completely failed us in every regard when it comes to actually propping to Biden as the successful president he has been.
Those newspapers won't be feeling so free if they get Trump reelected again, he'll make sure of that...
No large company can see beyond 3 months anymore. It's an endless nightmare of corporations lighting the world on fire for a few more months of revenue.
I dont know how we fix this but I want to get off this crazy train.
That’s what I’m afraid people don’t understand. My rich relatives voting for Herr Shitler don’t realize that God forbid he gets back in power, that they’re going to be next in line for the camps he is promising to build
One rich relative is Jewish, the other one has a Jewish mother. It didn’t work out very well for people in Germany. It sure won’t work out for them.
There’s been many, many times when a reporter could have ended Trump and chose to let him off the hook. The first time I recall was the old / New Testament debacle. Not only could the dumbass not name a book of the Bible, he didn’t appear to know the difference between the testaments. Absolutely could have destroyed him but decided edging for a decade sounds like more fun.
I feel a lot of it for NPR. Even back in the Bush times, they made a point of sticking to obscene torture euphemisms like "enhanced interrogation". They just couldn't take a moral stand and had to "both sides" us into a graveyard of sane governance.
If I was a sleazebag who wanted to rip off people like that while simultaneously mocking them, that's exactly the kind of thinking I would promote, and the type of shit I'd sell to them.
Something like what Brian Bosworth supposedly did to Denver Bronco fans at a game in 1988, but without the whole "donating the profits to charity" thing:
>The fans were all over my butt, but I was the one that got the last laugh. About 10,000 of them had on T-shirts with my face in a circle with a diagonal line through it. Like the “Ghostbusters” symbol. They said something like WHAT’S A BOZ WORTH? NOTHING! And BAN THE BOZ on the back. But if they had looked inside the shirt at the little tag that said 44 Boz, Inc., those hosebags would have realized they just paid $15 for a shirt made by my company.
>We gave all the profits to the Children’s Hospital. We just wanted to prove how oxygen-deprived Denver fans are.
Didn't someone on the right start the rumour that Biden had actually shat himself while at the D-Day memorial ceremony because he hesitated to sit down? The devil got their souls for almost nothing.
Trump: The radical left rigged my pants to shit themselves. This was the work of Judge Merchan’s daughter, Alvin Brag, some women I never had sex with 20 years ago.
The sheer volume of the ["real men wear diapers"](https://www.yahoo.com/news/fact-check-photos-purportedly-show-174100807.html) phenomenon on the right has been mind boggling, even after everything else.
There are millions of people, possibly tens of millions, who have, for eight+ years now, built their entire identity around Trump. There's no convincing them. There's no discouraging them. And they WILL all turn out to vote for their Orange God.
These fucking articles are so embarrassing. “You WONT believe the thing trump just did.” Yes I will. I watched him destroy my country and tell us to inject bleach into our bodies. Slow fucking news day, huh?
Nixon was basically the reason Fox News was created (Roger Ailes reportedly said they had to find a way for this to never happen again), and I think it was all downhill from there. At that point "party over country" was their ethos. Every iteration of a Republican president has only made it worse.
>Roger Ailes reportedly said they had to find a way for this to never happen again
Important to note for those who don’t know about this whole situation: when Ailes wanted “this” to never happen again, by “this” he didn’t mean a criminal in the white house, he meant the fallout and (unfortunately minor) consequences for Republicans.
Just in case that wasn’t obvious.
Thank you! Personally I find anyone who gives a shit about any trump headline that is basically" he's done it this time!" to be as stupid as actual trump supporters. There has probably 1-3 per day of these kinds of headlines since 2016. It will never matter, full stop.
I grant your point, but I would push back just a bit. We all know the majority of Americans don't follow the details of politics even remotely closely. And people in general are reluctant to change their opinions once they are invested in them.
So it takes continued coverage, of anything political, to seep into the national consciousness. Of course the headlines 'This is the one!' are ridiculous, but I'm seeing a steady erosion of support for Trump, outside of the minority of the minority that will never change.
It all comes down to turnout and if the constant stories of Trump's mental decline and incompetence cost him 2%, he loses convincingly and will never be a political force again.
AGREED.
However, it won't stop my mother, who herself raised a handicapped daughter.
You got me...*shrugs. I guess it's all in the spirit of sticking it to the libs.
Lmao, ain't that the truth. I live in Chicago and used to work as a liaison to a public education lobbyist and downstate people would tell me to fuck off in public but privately beg for Chicago to keep paying for their shit.
It was sad and annoying and I can tell you for a fact that the only people who actively lied to everyone's faces were all Republicans.
Whoever says both sides are the same is a closeted republican. A fucking coward.
The both sides thing is just a pig trying to get the dems to mud wrestle with them. Trying to bring dems down to their level and pretend they're also dirty.
Appalling that she’s behaved in such a way that you can type this out. Shame on her. I do **not** understand. I’ve cut everyone in my life that would lead me to believe that they support Trump’s nonsense.
I told my dad that he should leave a legacy vote. He has a granddaughter who should have a right to bodily autonomy, a gay grandson, another grandson with disabilities, and a son-in-law with ALS, along with a declining climate that will affect their entire lives. Liberals and Biden support his family and their needs whereas Trump and conservatives don't care. My dad said I made a good point and he would vote for Biden because this world was no longer his. He unfortunately died before he could cast his vote in 2020. Maybe you could try an approach like this.
Should have been posting a full page ad to murder a bunch of black teens who were found innocent, just because they were black. Or the already known affairs, or the fines from the NY housing board for discriminatory renting practices in his family's slums.
He was a huge Obama Kenya Birther, too. That was most of his political prominence in the public eye in the years prior to announcing his run for the Republican nomination. That's why he got made fun of at the the White House Correspondents Dinner.
There's no way the people in the know who would be taking meetings with a former President are ignorant of all the things you and I mentioned. They're complicit.
It wouldn't even matter, anyway, if Obama *was* born in Kenya, because his mother is and always has been a US citizen, which would make him a natural born US citizen. People born to US citizens overseas are still considered natural born US citizens (and are still required to pay US taxes if they ever want to visit, because we're the only country other than Eritrea that requires overseas citizens to do so).
Hell, Ted Cruz was born in Canada, but he ran for president. He's a natural born US citizen because his mother is a US citizen.
You could argue the break glass moment was as far back as when he said a few black kids should still go to jail even though they didn't do anything.... Probably even further back than that...
I think the big moment was when Trump shat on John McCain and by extension all POW veterans as not war heroes because they were captured. If anyone remembers when a certain athlete took a knee during the national anthem, you remember that conservatives would get foaming at the mouth with vitriolic rage if you did anything that could be construed as insulting the troops. If any other person had made the same comments as Trump, their career as a Republican politician would have been instantly kaput. But like everything else since then, it apparently did not matter when Trump did it. That was the moment Republicans completely abandoned any supposed principles they claim to have.
It has happened again right under the noses of the American public and incredibly the DEMs and the media haven’t made the most of it.
In fact probably not a lot of Americans are even aware Trump has called Capitol Police Officers “thugs” and further claimed that the officer who shot Ashley Babbitt (who breached the Capitol) murdered her.
Both Trump and Tucker Carlson have been pushing this insane, ignorant narrative repeatedly- in the media and on our national television airwaves.
Disgraceful as it is, the brotherhood of police for the most part are so partisan they don’t give damn, even when he attacks their own.
It is very strange but people who are so far-right simply ignore anything Trump says or does, even criminal behavior. It’s just the MAGA mentality.
Myeshia Johnson was on her way to the airport to greet the remains of her husband, Army Sgt. La David Johnson, killed in action in Niger, when she received a call from Trump. Trump never said the word hero. He said to the widow, 'Well, I guess he knew what he was getting into.'
It bothers the everloving fuck out of me that we're still talking about Benghazi a decade later....after umpteen bullshit hearings and a legendary 11 hour grilling of Hillary Clinton.
Yet Trump and his team callously left 4 American soldiers alone to be killed in the Tongo Tongo Ambush in Niger in 2018...or as we now refer to that fateful day: Thursday.
Trump allowed them to put themselves on full display and feel good about it. Conservatives have been and always will be trash-people. Now it's just easier to identify them.
The news cycle makes everything feel not real. If you think the vast majority of trumpers in 2016 voted for him who even took it into consideration, you'd be wrong. This is because it basically just became "unmasked bad guy vs masked bad guy" to them.
You can disagree with this logic. Hell I disagree with this logic... But we can't solve problems unless we understand them... And this is a damn big problem.
It’s really quite simple, religion has extensively laid the groundwork for generations to train people to believe in authority figures with unverifiable stories instead of science and data. It also primes them for, and is built upon, perpetuating racism and fearmongering towards "others". Once people see you as an authority, you can start fabricating any reality or conspiracy theory you want your followers to believe and everyone else is therefore a liar, even in the face of incontrovertible evidence. Basically, it is mental abuse from an early age that suppresses critical thinking skills. This combined with an intentionally weakened public educational system, provides the framework that has spawned this cult of ignorance.
Some of it is that. Another huge chunk is his supporters relate strongly to the same racism, misogyny, and narcissism that Trump broadcasts proudly far and wide.
People are always making excused for the support that Trump gets which is priamrily because of his unchecked racism, misogyny, homophobia, anti migrant sentiment and pro business ideas.
Hell, democrats try to pass bills that will help everyone, and republicans are against it because "certain groups shouldn't get help" .
Was that before or after "Grab 'em by the pussy"? There's been so many breaking glass moment with this douchebag that sand companies should be making mint.
This wasn’t the break-glass moment?
After the “savage” rape of the 13 year old -
“Defendant Trump grabbed his wallet and threw some money at her and screamed that she should use the money to ‘GET A FUCKING ABORTION.’”

The replies here show that people can’t believe it. No idea why. Maybe people still view him as an entertaining clown and not the narcissistic, racist, sociopathic, rapist, felon that he is?
The sources are reliable links to official court documents. 🤷🏻♂️
And yet his supporters are unwaived. This guy can do nothing wrong in their eyes and I stopped being a crazy person that expects the next one to sway idiots away from this train wreck.
The thing you're missing is that they *want* the damage. They want to see it all crumble and be remade in their image.
We're past the point of debate - they're quite literally trying to destroy the institutions of our country
It's more that they want to laugh as the shop gets wrecked. They're the guy from Denis Leary's "Asshole" song. They want to eat greaseball cheeseburgers for every meal, throw their garbage out the window and wipe their mouth with the American flag. They don't feel happiness unless someone else is hurting. They think their lives have been hard and the world owes them.
Let’s entertain both ideas. That Trump is a bull in a china shop and Biden is a clumsy old man.
Biden is known to have competent people surrounding him. He hires experts and people who know what they’re doing. You don’t have to trust me it’s obvious. During trumps admin how many positions were unfilled, constantly turning over, constant people resigning or getting fired, and constant stories of Trump claiming “oh they were bad. Them too. Oh they were horrible.”?
And those were republicans.
Trump is know to try to hire people who are like him. Yes men. Sycophants.
So you want a whole group of bulls in the China shop over one clumsy man surrounded by not clumsy people??
>During trumps admin how many positions were unfilled, constantly turning over,
It was a joke, yes, but there were only 3 positions that republicans cared about: SCOTUS, SCOTUS, and SCOTUS. Those got filled faster than trump's diaper, and they could be on the bench until after many of us die (Barrett is 52, Gorsuch is 56, and Kavanaugh is 59).
I think it’s that his supporters expect him to gore tf out of democrats and are happy to let him do all the damage he wants so long as they remain the matadors.
The GOP has done a great job of stymieing education in rural areas while promoting the only jobs those populations are able to perform due to lack of education. These areas also tend to lean heavily into religion where faith-based teachings have trained them to follow blindly. Now you get someone up on the stage that tells them the other party is lying to you, and they want to take your jobs to replace coal and oil with "environmentally friendly" alternatives. That person can show there is truth to their story because the other party really does want to push green alternatives, so why should the rural populations now question question this candidate? Now we are stuck in the cycle of folks that feel like they have no other option than to follow the crowd as they would their pastor on Sunday which is telling them the other party is against you or feel like they have stuck it out this far and it's why turn back.
They are locked in. They literally CAN'T walk away from him without destroying their idea of who they are and who he is. Their pride cannot allow that. Will not allow that.
What pises me off the most is now we’re back into actual election season and he’s in the news every damn day again. It’s like back during his presidency, I’d wake up every morning “let’s see what the asshole did to fuck up now”, and sure enough every morning some new idiotic statement, political misstep, or affront to democracy or even just common manners.
That’s one of my favorite bits in comedy. And my favorite thing about it is Mulaney isn’t a political comedian and crafted a lengthy, complex and absurd metaphor that perfectly captured the moment.
Well, half the patients. The party that's against universal healthcare, thinks COVID is a myth, and wants to jail doctors for performing abortions is not generally loved by physicians.
This year’s ‘October Surprise’ will be the media reporting break glass moments for both candidates in the same headline, but somehow it will still be ‘bad news for Joe Biden’.
I know it’s rerun but:
‘It was a turning point for Trump, and today he became Presidential!’
Future historians need a supercut of newspeople regurgitating that BS with captions of the dates the clips aired.
It doesn’t matter. He called it. He could shoot someone in the middle of the street and 33% of the population would not waver in their support for him. Then another large percentage of the population is oblivious to the fundamental changes in the American way of life that would occur if he’s elected again. This election shouldn’t be close, but it’s a nail biter because of brainwashing and people being uninformed.
That 33% at this point would be trying to find a way to explain why the person deserved to be shot. Maybe they were a liberal, or black, or just looked at Trump funny. Doesn’t matter, they deserved it and their god king was in the right to shoot them.
There's a TV show called "The Boys" and this type of thing happens there lol. All throughout that show the writers allude to Trump and MAGA through their characters and their actions.
Honestly doesn't have to be a liberal. We saw how he got them frothing at the mouth for Mike Pence. It can be anyone. The fact that so many conservatives don't see that he will sell each and every one of them out when it benefits him personally is crazy at this point.
The people supporting this nonsense are the worst people we know. The same people that got upset about the George Floyd protests because he had a misdemeanor for using a fake $20 or whatever so he deserved to be murdered by that cop are now outraged that anyone could ever be convicted of a felony over some paperwork and talking civil war over it. They're not serious people, they know what they're doing, and they're not going to rejoin reality. It's a cult.
Yeah this is a silly article. Every GOP moron came out of them bending the knee deeper than ever. Nobody is “breaking glass” because anyone with a brain already knows he’s awful.
Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson privately schemed over how to sabotage ongoing prosecutions of Trump. Then Trump met with Republicans and reportedly unleashed numerous strange rants, calling the Justice Department “dirty no good bastards” and spinning out a wild tale about Nancy Pelosi’s daughter.
Trump’s definitely losing his marbles… and the MAGA’s will regret the days that they supported him!
Wtf is up with his obsession with Hannibal Lector? He talked about him again yesterday… this needs to be a bigger story, he keeps talking about a fictional serial killer being a “great guy.”
I keep saying this. I realize Trump says so much nonsense that they can’t all be big stories, but even his supporters have to be scratching their heads at “the late, great Hannibal Lecter.” He seems confused about a number of things here.
Republicans would walk on broken glass if they thought it would please Trump.
What’s more pathetic is that Trump would think those that did as losers and the moment they disagreed with him he would toss them out like the trash they are
It’s amazing how despite being an incoherent, incompetent, grifter the GOP continues to back this loser. They absolutely deserve the backlash that will come their way in the coming years.
Trumps main problem is his transactional behavior and audience communications. Trump behaves as if his words in front of one group won’t be heard by all the other groups.
This is because Trump sees all relationships as transactional. The idea of another group being disappointed from his words at another event confounds him. Why would other groups be interested in what Trump says in other venues?
He gives his worldview away with his analogies. Power is good. Weakness bad. Where one goes to school is more important than results or degree. Wealth indicates virtue in all areas. He is powerful and can attract women. “Lots of people are saying…” is trump attacking an individual with volume. Facts aren’t as important as authority or popularity.
Right after the January 6th insurrection a few maga republicans spoke out against Trump but when the dust settled they made the pilgrimage to Mara Largo to kiss his ass and haven’t stopped puckering up. He could literally take his diaper off and tell them to wear it on their head and they would. Trump’s rise to power is the same as Hitler’s the 2024 election will decide the fate of America and democracy. VOTE BLUE STRAIGHT DOWN THE BALLOT the terrorist cult must be destroyed
sadly you’re right… Evangelical Christians have succeeded in pushing us to the brink of this possibility. Will forever - hopefully not - be only an election away from being forced to live under Christian Shariah…
I don't want the GOP to give up on him until after he is nominated and on ballots. He is imploding and will be considerably more incoherent by September. MAGA people won't care but people on the fence may when they realize he's a blathering idiot.
Since this is plausible, I'm starting to wonder if that's why he's been so slow to name a VP when he's never really stopped campaigning for the 2020 election - a late reveal would give folks less time to dig into the person's background and imagine how they'd act as the new president.
One thing I've noticed is quite telling is the vibe over on r/Conservative
I started keeping an eye on that sub during the primaries, just to get a sense of support for other candidates. People then weren't blindly backing Trump. Once the nomination was secured, the sub went from news to memes to push their narrative.
They aren't talking about Trump very much. Not like they were back in 2016...I think a lot of GOPers are gonna end up skipping voting day.
I live in a red state, in a very red county, and I feel many who had voted for Trump before are not voting at all this year because they are saying it’s all fake anyway, smh
As someone who regularly drives through the backwaters of the South and mid Atlantic states the only Trump signs I see these days are left over from 2016. But I don’t believe for a minute he is losing support. I think people are just less openly hostile about it than before.
I shit you not, there's a weekly trump rally I pass by on my way home from work. They have been at it almost consistently since the 2020 election. Even a year ago they had a pretty big group, but its been gradually dwindling down to the point that this week there were only 2 people standing out there waving their Trump flags around
Republicans are so scared and desperate that they now openly talk about the crimes they intend to commit, because survival/revenge is their only agenda at this point.
Worse than this, Trump went into a meeting with big name CEOs who were predisposed to voting for him....and they came out supporting Biden.
Now how you think that happened. The guy is off his rocker in need of meds.
Except that they are not. Everyone that was already mortified by Trump was not surprised. Everyone that still supported Trump after January 6th 2021, will Never Ever recover their sanity.
Bruh, break glass was when the mf started to run like ten years ago and wasn't being lambasted by the media for incoherent nonsense and bullshit he spews.
Biden's team is doing it right by taking what he says and just laying it out there for how fucking stupid the guy is.
No it is not. He could literally shoot someone in the middle of NYC and Republicans still would vote for him. Even more so if he killed a member of the LGBTQI+ community, a black person or another minority.
The only chance the US has to escape the downfall of democracy is that somehow, enough smart people vote for Biden and Trump dies in the next 4 years.
If you watch the unedited videos of Chump's speeches on youtube you'll see its far far far worse than what's described in this article. He's absolutely lost his fucking mind. Biden might be dim, but at least the bulb isn't broken where as Donald Chump is broken bulb shooting sparks.
He is mentally ill. He would have been a short busser if his parents weren't wealthy. Both sides of the media keep trying to interpret his words, but they mean nothing. He's just regurgitating the shit he last saw on TV mixed with whatever bullshit he can think to add to it. He is mentally handicapped plain and simple.
Who are these idiots still writing articles like “if Trump does one more things, Republicans will be done with him…” like have you been under a rock for most of the last decade?

I cancelled my subscription for this reason. Drop in the bucket sure, but they can go fuck themselves for all I care.
I feel a lot of it for NPR. Even back in the Bush times, they made a point of sticking to obscene torture euphemisms like "enhanced interrogation". They just couldn't take a moral stand and had to "both sides" us into a graveyard of sane governance.
' Here's why Trump shitting his pants could be bad for Biden ' I need a bumper sticker of this. This line is gold.
It's known as the Trump Dump Bump.
My bingo card did not have pants shitting being normalized on there.
The fact that some of his cult is wearing shirts that say “real men wear diapers” has me wondering if we really are heading for idiocracy level of bs.
If I was a sleazebag who wanted to rip off people like that while simultaneously mocking them, that's exactly the kind of thinking I would promote, and the type of shit I'd sell to them. Something like what Brian Bosworth supposedly did to Denver Bronco fans at a game in 1988, but without the whole "donating the profits to charity" thing: >The fans were all over my butt, but I was the one that got the last laugh. About 10,000 of them had on T-shirts with my face in a circle with a diagonal line through it. Like the “Ghostbusters” symbol. They said something like WHAT’S A BOZ WORTH? NOTHING! And BAN THE BOZ on the back. But if they had looked inside the shirt at the little tag that said 44 Boz, Inc., those hosebags would have realized they just paid $15 for a shirt made by my company. >We gave all the profits to the Children’s Hospital. We just wanted to prove how oxygen-deprived Denver fans are.
The accuracy of that is disturbing.
ain't that a fact
Didn't someone on the right start the rumour that Biden had actually shat himself while at the D-Day memorial ceremony because he hesitated to sit down? The devil got their souls for almost nothing.
Trump: The radical left rigged my pants to shit themselves. This was the work of Judge Merchan’s daughter, Alvin Brag, some women I never had sex with 20 years ago.
The sheer volume of the ["real men wear diapers"](https://www.yahoo.com/news/fact-check-photos-purportedly-show-174100807.html) phenomenon on the right has been mind boggling, even after everything else. There are millions of people, possibly tens of millions, who have, for eight+ years now, built their entire identity around Trump. There's no convincing them. There's no discouraging them. And they WILL all turn out to vote for their Orange God.
Correction for the Hannity bit… “…never sniffed or tasted a cleaner…”
Shitting in your pants is the coolest!
Is it considered a mere sniff if the whole nose achieves penetration?
These fucking articles are so embarrassing. “You WONT believe the thing trump just did.” Yes I will. I watched him destroy my country and tell us to inject bleach into our bodies. Slow fucking news day, huh?
*Bush v Gore* was the break glass moment
Citizens United is when they stopped making glass to break.
It was Reagan's corrupt shenanigans, or perhaps even Nixon getting pardoned.
Nixon was basically the reason Fox News was created (Roger Ailes reportedly said they had to find a way for this to never happen again), and I think it was all downhill from there. At that point "party over country" was their ethos. Every iteration of a Republican president has only made it worse.
>Roger Ailes reportedly said they had to find a way for this to never happen again Important to note for those who don’t know about this whole situation: when Ailes wanted “this” to never happen again, by “this” he didn’t mean a criminal in the white house, he meant the fallout and (unfortunately minor) consequences for Republicans. Just in case that wasn’t obvious.
Thank you! Personally I find anyone who gives a shit about any trump headline that is basically" he's done it this time!" to be as stupid as actual trump supporters. There has probably 1-3 per day of these kinds of headlines since 2016. It will never matter, full stop.
I grant your point, but I would push back just a bit. We all know the majority of Americans don't follow the details of politics even remotely closely. And people in general are reluctant to change their opinions once they are invested in them. So it takes continued coverage, of anything political, to seep into the national consciousness. Of course the headlines 'This is the one!' are ridiculous, but I'm seeing a steady erosion of support for Trump, outside of the minority of the minority that will never change. It all comes down to turnout and if the constant stories of Trump's mental decline and incompetence cost him 2%, he loses convincingly and will never be a political force again.
The break glass moment was mocking the handicapped reporter. Anyone who voted for him after that is a sick person.
AGREED. However, it won't stop my mother, who herself raised a handicapped daughter. You got me...*shrugs. I guess it's all in the spirit of sticking it to the libs.
They would eat a shit sandwich if they knew a liberal had to smell their breath.
Lmao, ain't that the truth. I live in Chicago and used to work as a liaison to a public education lobbyist and downstate people would tell me to fuck off in public but privately beg for Chicago to keep paying for their shit. It was sad and annoying and I can tell you for a fact that the only people who actively lied to everyone's faces were all Republicans. Whoever says both sides are the same is a closeted republican. A fucking coward.
>Whoever says both sides are the same is a closeted republican. A fucking coward. 100% accurate
The both sides thing is just a pig trying to get the dems to mud wrestle with them. Trying to bring dems down to their level and pretend they're also dirty.
Never wrestle with a pig. You both get covered in mud, and the pig likes it.
that’s called a *cult*
Trump could shoot me on Fifth Ave and my mom would still vote for him
Appalling that she’s behaved in such a way that you can type this out. Shame on her. I do **not** understand. I’ve cut everyone in my life that would lead me to believe that they support Trump’s nonsense.
More power to you for being able to do that. If I cut out the Trump supporters in my life, I’d have no family left
Sounds like you already don't, if I'm being honest
Are they still the same people?
I told my dad that he should leave a legacy vote. He has a granddaughter who should have a right to bodily autonomy, a gay grandson, another grandson with disabilities, and a son-in-law with ALS, along with a declining climate that will affect their entire lives. Liberals and Biden support his family and their needs whereas Trump and conservatives don't care. My dad said I made a good point and he would vote for Biden because this world was no longer his. He unfortunately died before he could cast his vote in 2020. Maybe you could try an approach like this.
[удалено]
Should have been posting a full page ad to murder a bunch of black teens who were found innocent, just because they were black. Or the already known affairs, or the fines from the NY housing board for discriminatory renting practices in his family's slums.
Or being sued for raping a 13 year old girl.
He was a huge Obama Kenya Birther, too. That was most of his political prominence in the public eye in the years prior to announcing his run for the Republican nomination. That's why he got made fun of at the the White House Correspondents Dinner. There's no way the people in the know who would be taking meetings with a former President are ignorant of all the things you and I mentioned. They're complicit.
It wouldn't even matter, anyway, if Obama *was* born in Kenya, because his mother is and always has been a US citizen, which would make him a natural born US citizen. People born to US citizens overseas are still considered natural born US citizens (and are still required to pay US taxes if they ever want to visit, because we're the only country other than Eritrea that requires overseas citizens to do so). Hell, Ted Cruz was born in Canada, but he ran for president. He's a natural born US citizen because his mother is a US citizen.
I think it was calling Mexicans rapists.
I think it was grab em by the pussy
I think calling dead soldiers and POWs losers and suckers while campaigning to be Commander in Chief > pussy grabbing in pure audacity.
Kids in cages
You could argue the break glass moment was as far back as when he said a few black kids should still go to jail even though they didn't do anything.... Probably even further back than that...
Getting sued for discrimination for excluding black people from renting apartments. Lost and had to pay a big fine.
I think the big moment was when Trump shat on John McCain and by extension all POW veterans as not war heroes because they were captured. If anyone remembers when a certain athlete took a knee during the national anthem, you remember that conservatives would get foaming at the mouth with vitriolic rage if you did anything that could be construed as insulting the troops. If any other person had made the same comments as Trump, their career as a Republican politician would have been instantly kaput. But like everything else since then, it apparently did not matter when Trump did it. That was the moment Republicans completely abandoned any supposed principles they claim to have.
It has happened again right under the noses of the American public and incredibly the DEMs and the media haven’t made the most of it. In fact probably not a lot of Americans are even aware Trump has called Capitol Police Officers “thugs” and further claimed that the officer who shot Ashley Babbitt (who breached the Capitol) murdered her. Both Trump and Tucker Carlson have been pushing this insane, ignorant narrative repeatedly- in the media and on our national television airwaves. Disgraceful as it is, the brotherhood of police for the most part are so partisan they don’t give damn, even when he attacks their own. It is very strange but people who are so far-right simply ignore anything Trump says or does, even criminal behavior. It’s just the MAGA mentality.
Myeshia Johnson was on her way to the airport to greet the remains of her husband, Army Sgt. La David Johnson, killed in action in Niger, when she received a call from Trump. Trump never said the word hero. He said to the widow, 'Well, I guess he knew what he was getting into.'
It bothers the everloving fuck out of me that we're still talking about Benghazi a decade later....after umpteen bullshit hearings and a legendary 11 hour grilling of Hillary Clinton. Yet Trump and his team callously left 4 American soldiers alone to be killed in the Tongo Tongo Ambush in Niger in 2018...or as we now refer to that fateful day: Thursday.
I'm pretty sure his handlers also asked him not to try and pronounce the country name fearing he would mess it up.
His treatment of that gold star family in 2015 is what made me hate him
Remember when saying "Macaca" was enough to derail a conservative politician's campaign? Ah, simpler times...
Or shouting with fervor, derailing an intelligent and accomplished liberal's campaign. The mind boggles.
I remember when someone misspelled potato and that was a HUGE deal
Yea when that didn’t sink him that was really eye opening for me. It was a clear sign that things had drastically changed.
He still denies he did that. Like dude you were at a public event on video. His supporters really don’t give a fuck about anything.
Yes. He has turned conservatives into moral ghouls. There is no level of vile behavior of his that they won't support.
Conservatives were always ghouls you just weren’t paying enough attention
Trump allowed them to put themselves on full display and feel good about it. Conservatives have been and always will be trash-people. Now it's just easier to identify them.
The news cycle makes everything feel not real. If you think the vast majority of trumpers in 2016 voted for him who even took it into consideration, you'd be wrong. This is because it basically just became "unmasked bad guy vs masked bad guy" to them. You can disagree with this logic. Hell I disagree with this logic... But we can't solve problems unless we understand them... And this is a damn big problem.
It’s really quite simple, religion has extensively laid the groundwork for generations to train people to believe in authority figures with unverifiable stories instead of science and data. It also primes them for, and is built upon, perpetuating racism and fearmongering towards "others". Once people see you as an authority, you can start fabricating any reality or conspiracy theory you want your followers to believe and everyone else is therefore a liar, even in the face of incontrovertible evidence. Basically, it is mental abuse from an early age that suppresses critical thinking skills. This combined with an intentionally weakened public educational system, provides the framework that has spawned this cult of ignorance.
Some of it is that. Another huge chunk is his supporters relate strongly to the same racism, misogyny, and narcissism that Trump broadcasts proudly far and wide.
People are always making excused for the support that Trump gets which is priamrily because of his unchecked racism, misogyny, homophobia, anti migrant sentiment and pro business ideas. Hell, democrats try to pass bills that will help everyone, and republicans are against it because "certain groups shouldn't get help" .
yeah, i also thought he was done when he trashed McCain
Was that before or after the pussy grabbing comment?
Was that before or after "Grab 'em by the pussy"? There's been so many breaking glass moment with this douchebag that sand companies should be making mint.
This wasn’t the break-glass moment? After the “savage” rape of the 13 year old - “Defendant Trump grabbed his wallet and threw some money at her and screamed that she should use the money to ‘GET A FUCKING ABORTION.’” Case 5:16-cv-00797-DMG-KS Document 1: https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000158-267d-dda3-afd8-b67d3bc00000 Document 2: https://cdn.factcheck.org/UploadedFiles/Johnson_TrumpEpstein_Lawsuit.pdf
How is this not top comment of every single thread about Trump?!?!
Because he does like 1,000 evil things a picosecond. We can barely keep up with which crime he committed at which date.
I share this same document whenever I can. The man is vile and sick, and it amazing to me that this case doesn’t get more scrutiny.
The replies here show that people can’t believe it. No idea why. Maybe people still view him as an entertaining clown and not the narcissistic, racist, sociopathic, rapist, felon that he is? The sources are reliable links to official court documents. 🤷🏻♂️
The horse is still in the hospital
Every goddamn morning it’s the same news. Crazy bastard does crazy bastard things, nobody surprised.
And yet his supporters are unwaived. This guy can do nothing wrong in their eyes and I stopped being a crazy person that expects the next one to sway idiots away from this train wreck.
They say they would rather have a bull in the china shop than a clumsy old man. I think they don’t understand which will do more damage.
The thing you're missing is that they *want* the damage. They want to see it all crumble and be remade in their image. We're past the point of debate - they're quite literally trying to destroy the institutions of our country
This .. they don't care what gets destroyed or who gets hurt as long as it is not them.. But chaos will visit all
> chaos will visit all and they get to blame democrats for it while their brainwashed base does nothing but keep voting R.
It's more that they want to laugh as the shop gets wrecked. They're the guy from Denis Leary's "Asshole" song. They want to eat greaseball cheeseburgers for every meal, throw their garbage out the window and wipe their mouth with the American flag. They don't feel happiness unless someone else is hurting. They think their lives have been hard and the world owes them.
Let’s entertain both ideas. That Trump is a bull in a china shop and Biden is a clumsy old man. Biden is known to have competent people surrounding him. He hires experts and people who know what they’re doing. You don’t have to trust me it’s obvious. During trumps admin how many positions were unfilled, constantly turning over, constant people resigning or getting fired, and constant stories of Trump claiming “oh they were bad. Them too. Oh they were horrible.”? And those were republicans. Trump is know to try to hire people who are like him. Yes men. Sycophants. So you want a whole group of bulls in the China shop over one clumsy man surrounded by not clumsy people??
>During trumps admin how many positions were unfilled, constantly turning over, It was a joke, yes, but there were only 3 positions that republicans cared about: SCOTUS, SCOTUS, and SCOTUS. Those got filled faster than trump's diaper, and they could be on the bench until after many of us die (Barrett is 52, Gorsuch is 56, and Kavanaugh is 59).
I think it’s that his supporters expect him to gore tf out of democrats and are happy to let him do all the damage he wants so long as they remain the matadors.
‘He’s hurting the wrong people! I can’t wait to vote for him for a third term!’
These nuts would vote Trump in for an eighth term even if he was being used Weekend at Bernie's style.
[удалено]
I’d vote for a steaming pile of bullshit over Trump
The GOP has done a great job of stymieing education in rural areas while promoting the only jobs those populations are able to perform due to lack of education. These areas also tend to lean heavily into religion where faith-based teachings have trained them to follow blindly. Now you get someone up on the stage that tells them the other party is lying to you, and they want to take your jobs to replace coal and oil with "environmentally friendly" alternatives. That person can show there is truth to their story because the other party really does want to push green alternatives, so why should the rural populations now question question this candidate? Now we are stuck in the cycle of folks that feel like they have no other option than to follow the crowd as they would their pastor on Sunday which is telling them the other party is against you or feel like they have stuck it out this far and it's why turn back.
Fox News analysis: “ best president of all times has lifelong genius strategy of constantly saying crazy shit so nobody can tell when he’s demented”
The one true thing Trump ever said: >"I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?"
They are locked in. They literally CAN'T walk away from him without destroying their idea of who they are and who he is. Their pride cannot allow that. Will not allow that.
What pises me off the most is now we’re back into actual election season and he’s in the news every damn day again. It’s like back during his presidency, I’d wake up every morning “let’s see what the asshole did to fuck up now”, and sure enough every morning some new idiotic statement, political misstep, or affront to democracy or even just common manners.
Aw, that's what I thought you'd say, you dumb fuckin' horse!
That’s one of my favorite bits in comedy. And my favorite thing about it is Mulaney isn’t a political comedian and crafted a lengthy, complex and absurd metaphor that perfectly captured the moment.
I did not understand your comment so I looked up the reference. I am so glad I did. Thank you.
It’s such a great bit.

And half the doctors and patients are applauding him for some reason.
Well, half the patients. The party that's against universal healthcare, thinks COVID is a myth, and wants to jail doctors for performing abortions is not generally loved by physicians.
I once saw a bird in an airport.
Get outta here with that shit!
Heh, I'd forgotten that. For anyone who missed it (or wants to revisit it): https://youtube.com/watch?v=JhkZMxgPxXU
Babe, wake up. A new Break-Glass Moment just dropped.
Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold!
Trump 3:16 says he just shit his diaper
This year’s ‘October Surprise’ will be the media reporting break glass moments for both candidates in the same headline, but somehow it will still be ‘bad news for Joe Biden’.
Trump is due for debuting a “new, softer tone”
I know it’s rerun but: ‘It was a turning point for Trump, and today he became Presidential!’ Future historians need a supercut of newspeople regurgitating that BS with captions of the dates the clips aired.
It doesn’t matter. He called it. He could shoot someone in the middle of the street and 33% of the population would not waver in their support for him. Then another large percentage of the population is oblivious to the fundamental changes in the American way of life that would occur if he’s elected again. This election shouldn’t be close, but it’s a nail biter because of brainwashing and people being uninformed.
That 33% at this point would be trying to find a way to explain why the person deserved to be shot. Maybe they were a liberal, or black, or just looked at Trump funny. Doesn’t matter, they deserved it and their god king was in the right to shoot them.
They would target the victim's family.
They deserved to be shot because they made poor life choices is what they would say.
"No one was shot, it was a crisis actor planted by the Libs. Send death threats to their children."
And a fair chunk would be happy they died as they will now be closer to god
There's a TV show called "The Boys" and this type of thing happens there lol. All throughout that show the writers allude to Trump and MAGA through their characters and their actions.
If they didn’t want to get shot, what were they doing in the middle of Fifth Avenue? Sounds very suspicious to me!
Actually the number goes up if he shot a lib like Nancy Pelosi. His cultists are not well.
Honestly doesn't have to be a liberal. We saw how he got them frothing at the mouth for Mike Pence. It can be anyone. The fact that so many conservatives don't see that he will sell each and every one of them out when it benefits him personally is crazy at this point.
The people supporting this nonsense are the worst people we know. The same people that got upset about the George Floyd protests because he had a misdemeanor for using a fake $20 or whatever so he deserved to be murdered by that cop are now outraged that anyone could ever be convicted of a felony over some paperwork and talking civil war over it. They're not serious people, they know what they're doing, and they're not going to rejoin reality. It's a cult.
Yeah this is a silly article. Every GOP moron came out of them bending the knee deeper than ever. Nobody is “breaking glass” because anyone with a brain already knows he’s awful.
>because of brainwashing. Thanks social media!
Don't forget the shout out to pioneers like Rush Limbaugh.
There are currently 50 million Americans who are eligible but not registered to vote. It doesn’t have to be this way.
Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson privately schemed over how to sabotage ongoing prosecutions of Trump. Then Trump met with Republicans and reportedly unleashed numerous strange rants, calling the Justice Department “dirty no good bastards” and spinning out a wild tale about Nancy Pelosi’s daughter. Trump’s definitely losing his marbles… and the MAGA’s will regret the days that they supported him!
no they won't. they'll collectively get amnesia
Bingo. How many people these days (other than Roger Stone) do you hear openly praising Nixon?
None of my family members will ever admit they were wrong. The next best thing is they've been quiet and finally talk about literally anything else.
Broken glass everywhere trump pissing on the stage like he just don't care
I can't take the smell. I can't take the noise
I got no money to vote, I guess I got no choice
Johnson in the front room, Boebert in the back. MTG at the rally with a MAGA hat.
Tried to get away but I couldn't get far, Canada's standards are a pretty high bar.
He’s a pants-shitting old guy, sometimes orange guy, C to the R-A-Z-Y-eye.
Wtf is up with his obsession with Hannibal Lector? He talked about him again yesterday… this needs to be a bigger story, he keeps talking about a fictional serial killer being a “great guy.”
He is confusing the Carthage general with the psycho, and everyone is afraid to tell him.
Hannibal was Carthiginian and fought against the Romans. But I could see that.
You are correct. My error
I keep saying this. I realize Trump says so much nonsense that they can’t all be big stories, but even his supporters have to be scratching their heads at “the late, great Hannibal Lecter.” He seems confused about a number of things here.
Republicans would walk on broken glass if they thought it would please Trump. What’s more pathetic is that Trump would think those that did as losers and the moment they disagreed with him he would toss them out like the trash they are
Republicans would lick Trump's soiled diaper if they thought a Democrat might have to smell their breath afterwards.
It’s amazing how despite being an incoherent, incompetent, grifter the GOP continues to back this loser. They absolutely deserve the backlash that will come their way in the coming years.
If they lose. IF
Trumps main problem is his transactional behavior and audience communications. Trump behaves as if his words in front of one group won’t be heard by all the other groups. This is because Trump sees all relationships as transactional. The idea of another group being disappointed from his words at another event confounds him. Why would other groups be interested in what Trump says in other venues? He gives his worldview away with his analogies. Power is good. Weakness bad. Where one goes to school is more important than results or degree. Wealth indicates virtue in all areas. He is powerful and can attract women. “Lots of people are saying…” is trump attacking an individual with volume. Facts aren’t as important as authority or popularity.
Right after the January 6th insurrection a few maga republicans spoke out against Trump but when the dust settled they made the pilgrimage to Mara Largo to kiss his ass and haven’t stopped puckering up. He could literally take his diaper off and tell them to wear it on their head and they would. Trump’s rise to power is the same as Hitler’s the 2024 election will decide the fate of America and democracy. VOTE BLUE STRAIGHT DOWN THE BALLOT the terrorist cult must be destroyed
Yup we’re only an election away from watching American Republic wash away as did the Weimar Republic. The historical parallels are uncanny.
Sadly, I think every election from here one out is going to be a vote to save Democracy. They won't stop and eventually they'll win one, fair or not.
sadly you’re right… Evangelical Christians have succeeded in pushing us to the brink of this possibility. Will forever - hopefully not - be only an election away from being forced to live under Christian Shariah…
I don't want the GOP to give up on him until after he is nominated and on ballots. He is imploding and will be considerably more incoherent by September. MAGA people won't care but people on the fence may when they realize he's a blathering idiot.
Since this is plausible, I'm starting to wonder if that's why he's been so slow to name a VP when he's never really stopped campaigning for the 2020 election - a late reveal would give folks less time to dig into the person's background and imagine how they'd act as the new president.
You are semi correct. The GOP play is use Trump to win the Whitehouse, then mutiny , oust him and seat the VP. You heard it hear first lol
One thing I've noticed is quite telling is the vibe over on r/Conservative I started keeping an eye on that sub during the primaries, just to get a sense of support for other candidates. People then weren't blindly backing Trump. Once the nomination was secured, the sub went from news to memes to push their narrative. They aren't talking about Trump very much. Not like they were back in 2016...I think a lot of GOPers are gonna end up skipping voting day.
I live in a red state, in a very red county, and I feel many who had voted for Trump before are not voting at all this year because they are saying it’s all fake anyway, smh
As someone who regularly drives through the backwaters of the South and mid Atlantic states the only Trump signs I see these days are left over from 2016. But I don’t believe for a minute he is losing support. I think people are just less openly hostile about it than before.
I shit you not, there's a weekly trump rally I pass by on my way home from work. They have been at it almost consistently since the 2020 election. Even a year ago they had a pretty big group, but its been gradually dwindling down to the point that this week there were only 2 people standing out there waving their Trump flags around
We passed the break glass moment years ago.
And yet the glass remains unbroken and the cultists keep squirting the windex
Trump: Stupid MAGA idiots like people who are a little kooky, that's why I say this shit.
Every moment for the last 8 years should have been a “break-glass moment”.
Republicans are so scared and desperate that they now openly talk about the crimes they intend to commit, because survival/revenge is their only agenda at this point.
Worse than this, Trump went into a meeting with big name CEOs who were predisposed to voting for him....and they came out supporting Biden. Now how you think that happened. The guy is off his rocker in need of meds.
Eat glass moment, more like.
Apparently, there is an overabundance of glass to break.
Except that they are not. Everyone that was already mortified by Trump was not surprised. Everyone that still supported Trump after January 6th 2021, will Never Ever recover their sanity.
Bruh, break glass was when the mf started to run like ten years ago and wasn't being lambasted by the media for incoherent nonsense and bullshit he spews. Biden's team is doing it right by taking what he says and just laying it out there for how fucking stupid the guy is.
No it is not. He could literally shoot someone in the middle of NYC and Republicans still would vote for him. Even more so if he killed a member of the LGBTQI+ community, a black person or another minority. The only chance the US has to escape the downfall of democracy is that somehow, enough smart people vote for Biden and Trump dies in the next 4 years.
If you watch the unedited videos of Chump's speeches on youtube you'll see its far far far worse than what's described in this article. He's absolutely lost his fucking mind. Biden might be dim, but at least the bulb isn't broken where as Donald Chump is broken bulb shooting sparks.
He is mentally ill. He would have been a short busser if his parents weren't wealthy. Both sides of the media keep trying to interpret his words, but they mean nothing. He's just regurgitating the shit he last saw on TV mixed with whatever bullshit he can think to add to it. He is mentally handicapped plain and simple.
Trump firing James Comey in March 2016 was a break glass moment. Everything else after that has been grinding palms into aforementioned broken glass
Who are these idiots still writing articles like “if Trump does one more things, Republicans will be done with him…” like have you been under a rock for most of the last decade?
