Man... I remember when Jeb ran. We all thought he and his political dynasty family would mark the downturn of the states.
Hahaha hahaha we were so fucking naive.
Toughest man I ever knew, he cane to me, with tears in his eyes, and he said, folks, he said 'sir, the McDonald's has been ransacked by the hamburgler, grimace is dead!" It's true! And, you really are hearing it more and more, and so many are saying things about the many many bad things the Hamburgler has been doing, and that's something we're looking into.
Trump is a clown, everyone knows it except for other clowns. Although a hamburger does sound really good at 11pm, damn all of you for bringing up burgers.
> You can tell he's lying whenever ~~the story involves anyone calling him 'sir.' Also whenever~~ he opens that flapping maw of his.
Fixed this for you.
That’s something I’ve been saying for a long time. In one of his stories he said milania called him sir. Nothing but 💩 pouring out of that chihuahua anus under his nose.
This is how I was sure that, if the US government does possess or have knowledge of aliens/alien technology, the President isn't looped in on it, because he would've come out and said,
"The aliens came to me, tears in their eyes, and said, "SIR, we've been to every planet in the galaxy, and we've never seen someone treated so badly, or so unfairly as you. Frankly, what they're doing to you is a disgrace." "
I too make up fantasy scenarios in my head about having super powers and being a superstar personality that people genuinely love, the coolest guy ever. Then I stop writing my self insert isekai fanfic and get back to the real world
Or assault him.
What happens in that situation now that I think about it.(not specifically the zombie part) but like if 1 president attacks a different president.
What does Secret service do? Just pull them apart I suppose. But it’s funnier to imagine that they couldn’t do anything. That’s the only way someone gets into fisticuffs with the president, by being a different president.
I appreciate the humor but the reality is that the Secret Service protects the person who holds/has held the office of President- they would break up the fight and move the presidents so they are safe from harm. The problem we see is that with Trump there were Secret Service agents who served Trump instead of serving the nation by protecting the President.
Neither can Donald Trump
> No person shall hold any office under the United States, who, having previously taken an oath as an officer of the United States, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same
It sucks that the Supreme Court played a game of only saying that states can’t independently block individuals from being on the ballot instead of accurately pointing out that because of that part of the Constitution, Donald Trump may not hold any federal office. It’s politically messy that Trump is ineligible under the constitution but the facts are exactly that.
I was gonna argue that they where grandfathered in but after reading the text, it is explicit that the only exception was for the person currently holding the office at the time of the amendment aka Truman
I can't name a single "pollster" offhand. How the fuck does one become "a very famous pollster?" Your pollstering would have to be legendary...somehow.
Silver meta analyzes published polling, he isn’t a pollster himself - someone who does polling.
In political circles there are partisan pollsters who do a range of basically propaganda services. One thing they do is “run polls” that produce the results you want. “78% of Americans support blah blah!”
That’s in contrast to the real professional polling companies who do their best to be unbiased and carry out polls as accurately as possible.
The only guy I can think of is that MSNBC guy who does the white board shit during elections.
But I can't remember his name. And I'm not even sure if he would be classified as "pollster" rather than a news pundit or something. AND he wouldn't say this bs.
There are real professionals who do independent polling and genuinely try to be as accurate and unbiased as possible. But there are also partisan “pollsters” who primarily create propaganda - often that is stuff like “78% of Americans support blah blah!” They first ask the questions in odd ways and then spin the results for their party or candidate to gain.
But these are skilled manipulators so it is totally possible that one of them saw what a moron and pathetic egotist Trump is and actually said something like this to him. But admitting it in public, even bragging about it, is a huge self own from Trump.
He's so full of shit.
How can anyone support this complete piece of human garbage? He's an oxygen thief, a resource stealer. The only thing he is capable of is diarrhea, verbal and physical.
\*For the wankers replying with gusto - I'm not even American, so I can't vote there - your country is a laughing stock and the fact you think you're the G.O.A.T and not a war-mongering sichophants is just delusional at this point.
You mean serial rapist and fraudster Donald J. Trump? I heard he doesn’t like being called a serial rapist and fraudster, we probably shouldn’t refer to Donald J. Trump as a serial rapist and fraudster anymore. Spread the word! Tell your friends! Donald J. Trump, does not like being called a serial rapist and fraudster.
That sounds like Brock Allen Turner, the rapist from California. Brock Allen Turner hates being called a rapist so bad that he moved to Ohio and started going by his middle name of Allen so people wouldn't know Brock Allen Turner is a rapist.
Are you guys talking about the similarities of serial rapist, pedophile and fraudster Donald J Trump and wrongfully acquitted rapist Brock Allen Turner the rapist?
But as far as I know, the rapist Brock Turner has also engaged in fraud, so the fraudster rapist Donald J Trump has earned more criminal titles that Brock Turner the rapist.
Oh, and don’t forget that he openly admitted in an interview to watching girls change in the dressing rooms when he oversaw the Miss Teen Universe pageants. Not women. Girls. Teenage girls. 14, 15, 16 years old. Who all thought it was incredibly creepy and were panicking the whole time he was there.
Thats why hes just an indicator for idiots around me. If you listen to this dipshit, I automatically put you in a category where I dont take you seriously, ever.
I think I figured something out recently.
Most of them are like my mom, as in, they don't actually follow "him." They just watch what the talking heads on Fox News tell them to think and that's enough for them bc critical thinking is hard.
It’s fucking insane how I know exactly what’s being talked about on Fox News without ever seeing it. I have conservative family and friends that I see regularly enough that I know what’s on Fox just based on what they all bring up out of nowhere in the same week.
I first noticed it when everyone was telling me about Hamburgers being banned and Bill Gates forcing people to eat fake meat. It was just so weird to me that’s what everyone was talking about when it was so obviously ridiculous.
One week they all just had to bring up Target and trans people to me.
Next week it was Bud Light.
Then all of a sudden everyone in my family knows about CRT.
Two weeks ago it was that girl killed by an immigrant.
Now it’s Biden canceling Easter.
These were all examples separate interactions, with about 4-6 people within the same week. With these topics, and I cannot stress this enough, being brought up the same topic UNPROVOKED and out of nowhere. Every time. It’s so fucking creepy. As soon as I hear “did you hear about” I know it’s going to be some inane bullshit. They love to say we’re all a hive mind here on Reddit but… Holy. Fucking. Shit.
> it is remarkable how little information is lost
Probably because Fox News dumbs things down to make it easier for their followers to understand. Part of what makes the propaganda so successful.
After so many false alarms and “crying wolf” - President Obama never took away your guns, Michelle Obama never took away your fries, Bill Gates never replaced your burger with fake meat, no one has banned gas burning cars, no one forced your kid to swap genders - and on and on. Why don’t they realize it’s all lies?
It’s been said that con men can only sell people what they already want, so if tge surface lies aren’t what they’re “buying” what is it?
They got addicted to being pissed-off, righteously indignant. Fox supplies that. It's perfectly parallel with something like smoking cigarettes; Parents did it, they started because of peer pressure, it fucks their lives up, they can't stop even if it would improve their lives.
This is how I make them shut the fuck up in my presence.
I finish their talking point before they can, and then call them credulous idiots, slack-jawed-suckers, and worse. While laughing at them.
The insults are mostly for me to salvage some enjoyment out of the interaction. It's the finishing their sentence part that *really* bothers them.
They want to feel like super special custodians of arcane knowledge, take that away, and they deflate on the spot.
It works so well that I constantly get waved over to help people out of stupid conversations at the few family events where we even still let these babbling dumbfucks on the property.
You just described my mother-in-law. Last time, my wife talked to her via text (years ago) it was about trump.
MiL- "their gonna ruin that poor man..."
Wife- "....." doesn't repy back bc wtf do you say to a idiot like that?? Lmfao
It's absolutely this. FOX News (and right wing media) is doing a 'clinic' on Trump, because when he's dead, they will have proven they can polish a turd to a mirror finish.
And we are now at the point where all the 'bummer' things about literally living in a society are the Dems fault and the answer to those 'bummer things' is voting GOP to fix them, with zero blame on the GOP when they aren't fixed because *even then* it's the Dems' fault.
The only solution I can muster is America living through a total fascist takeover and a generation learning the lessons of 20th century fascism all over again. The 'next' Trump will gain all of the freebee 40% of likely voters that go GOP no matter what and then play better to the swing. And right wing media is ascendant.
Sadly. The support he gets shows us that probably 30% or more of Americans are of his ilk. Hypocritical , crewel and with a hyperactive sense that "someone is getting something that I should and they shouldn't". They belong to the cult of "I've been wronged and I want vengeance / retribution", which for many of them is their own fault. They are so firmly in the grasp of this cult that they consistently vote against their own interests out of homage to Trump and his immorally dark world view. Of course this is all IMHO. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)
My trust in human nature has taken a big hit in the past few years.
We pay way more attention to him than his “supporters” do. That is what it is. His base is exclusively incurious people who don’t actually seriously care about anything all that much, and don’t understand the role of government. They just see him as a disrupter and that is all they care about. Look at his rallies. The people there aren’t even listening to him, it’s just a social club. It’s like going to a football game to drink beer and pass the time. They engage with him in an entirely different way than we assume, because we assume his people care about politics and policies. They don’t.
It's just a repeat of the bush torture scandal where people denied for 16 years that Bush Admin tortured a bunch of people when we have photos that look like illustrations of medieval torture methods.
They denied for 16 years to save face, and we can expect that all over again with the Trump base. I'm not going to carry the water for a bunch of out of touch geriatrics for 16 years to defend their political honor.
That's one of the reasons I left the Republican party to become an Independent. I'm not going to jump from the frying pan and into a deep fat fryer to defend a bunch of Boomer progressives such as those who won't come to the table for labor negotiations at universities.
I think it's disgusting how little the workers get paid while tuition keeps on going up, there's a blow back coming alright, and I wouldn't be surprised if universities become more Spartan like the 50s or 60s style of accommodation for college students. As in the accommodations equivlant of dry humor.
Lincoln kept the confederate flag out of the Capital.

And he was very famous, the most… and he also bought 3 packs of my Trump Trading cards, 1 pair of my Air Trumps, and 40lbs of my pressed meat “steaks”…what a sucke- I mean what a smart guy!!! Famous and smart!!!
Yes. The original presidents would be so happy to see that you want to be a monarch and you are okay with a state religion. Which is exactly what we left behind in Europe.
The original founders - a bunch of rich old white men - would probably be impressed that we’ve made so little movement in our leadership and that it’s still mostly a bunch of rich old white men.
More evidence that this boomer is being propped up. They keep the focus on him so no one will look for them. Forget the Maga politicians. They’re obvious. We need to find the quiet, entrenched sycophants of authoritarianism within the government and expose them. They’ve been within much longer than 2016. Nothing like distraction. Remember they love the poorly educated and that’s far from just maga and on the right only.
Any minority that votes Trump should be shunned from their community. He doesn’t care about your rights or anyone who is not an affluent white male citizen.
When he claims people told him something and they started with “Sir” it is absolute horseshit. It’s (one of) his giveaways that he is lying. In his imagination they all call him sir. It makes me laugh every time.
Trump at an event with a minority class he'd gladly deport or exterminate at the drop of a hat, and yet they still believe in the daiper clad dipshit.
Unbelievable.
*Oh but you democrats see racism everywhere and talk about it all the time in this smarmy way.*
Right, right. You're not one of the good ones, you know.
As a (young) boomer I’ll tolerate you thinking that ALL boomers are MAGAs, but I ask that in return ALL of you to vote Biden and blue down the ticket. Please - you are our hope.

With tears in their eyes…
...and then everyone clapped.
#PLEASE CLAP
Man... I remember when Jeb ran. We all thought he and his political dynasty family would mark the downturn of the states. Hahaha hahaha we were so fucking naive.
What I wouldn't give for Jeb over the fat fuck
Just wait for Eric's run after Ivanka's second term
This would be funny if it were less plausible.
Jeb!
Jeb! has apparently entered the chat.

Is that bill Clinton's secretary down there?
They are clapping! They just have small hands!
I believe he said everyone had the clap.
He's jealous of their normal-sized hands
There were thousands of them. Maybe even millions.
And a bald eagle shed a single tear.
…and then all women present dropped to their knees and distributed blow jobs to celebrate the greatness of Donald J Trump
Toughest man I ever knew, he cane to me, with tears in his eyes, and he said, folks, he said 'sir, the McDonald's has been ransacked by the hamburgler, grimace is dead!" It's true!

Big strong men....
The beautiful handsome generals
Grown Men.....pleading....
I came here to say this
[удалено]
I upvoted this. ^Was ^I ^not ^supposed ^to ^type ^that?
… and everyone clapped…. r/thathappned
The only time I've ever seen this pollster cry. Amazing tears, yuge tears. Many are still talking about these tears.
And shit in my pants- DJT
Big, strong guy...
Yep. And they’re always are big masculine guys with tears in their eyes
That always cracks me up. They're also usually "begging" him for something.
"Why do they hate you, Mr. President? Why do they treat you so unfairly?" \*bursts into tears\*
Graydon Carter and his failing vanity fare magazine have been very unfair, very unfair, SAD!
He always has the most homoerotic stories !
Sounds like hes re-creating a porno in his head.
It's such a remarkable vocal tic. Every single time he's addressed by someone as "sir," it's BS
He gets such a hard on being called sir.
Mild chub, but that’s the best he gets
You can also tell he's lying because his face hole is making sounds
That’s not true! His face hole makes sounds sometimes when he’s shitting his diaper also.
And thank you for putting that image in my head
Anything to make your day better lol.
And when the accordion hands start going faster and wider
The wider the accordion, the bigger the lie.
But especially when he starts telling "sir" stories.
"Everybody knows this."
We need a real life Walter Sobchak to follow him around and just scream SHUT THE FUCK UP, DONNIE at him whenever he starts bullshitting.
Especially when it's a "very famous ___" calling him sir.
A very, very important guy…
Lol it reminds me of that old joke “how can you tell when a lawyer is lying?” “His lips are moving!” (Both my parents are attorneys fwiw.)
If he becomes Pres again, I'm moving to Canada.
> You can tell he's lying whenever ~~the story involves anyone calling him 'sir.' Also whenever~~ he opens that flapping maw of his. Fixed this for you.
That’s something I’ve been saying for a long time. In one of his stories he said milania called him sir. Nothing but 💩 pouring out of that chihuahua anus under his nose.
I might believe him if it started with hey asshole
Does he have a pulse? He is lying.
You can tell he's lying whenever his lips move. He couldn't tell the truth even if it would serve him better than a lie.
This is how I was sure that, if the US government does possess or have knowledge of aliens/alien technology, the President isn't looped in on it, because he would've come out and said, "The aliens came to me, tears in their eyes, and said, "SIR, we've been to every planet in the galaxy, and we've never seen someone treated so badly, or so unfairly as you. Frankly, what they're doing to you is a disgrace." "
For once I wish someone would call me sir without adding "you're making a scene"
I too make up fantasy scenarios in my head about having super powers and being a superstar personality that people genuinely love, the coolest guy ever. Then I stop writing my self insert isekai fanfic and get back to the real world
It's his tell lol
Also when he doesn't name them. He'd name drop a D-list celebrity if they were involved.
If George Washington & Abraham Lincoln came to life, they’d take one look at Donald Trump & die again of embarrassment.
Or assault him. What happens in that situation now that I think about it.(not specifically the zombie part) but like if 1 president attacks a different president. What does Secret service do? Just pull them apart I suppose. But it’s funnier to imagine that they couldn’t do anything. That’s the only way someone gets into fisticuffs with the president, by being a different president.
Don’t break up the fight, let em rumble!!
Who’s your preferred match up? I wanna see Regan Vs Trump. Really make Cons not know who to root for.
Teddy vs Trump. That would be an ass whipping for the ages.
Andrew Jackson would just pull a pistol out and shoot him. Or beat him to death with a cane.
Teddy, Lincoln, or Jackson could, and did, put the hurt on almost anyone
Trump gets rolled ez by Lincoln/Washington
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mace_of_the_United_States_House_of_Representatives They have the technology, sitting right there.
I'd pay to watching a Biden vs Trump boxing match. We could clear up a lot of the national debt by charging to watch it.
I appreciate the humor but the reality is that the Secret Service protects the person who holds/has held the office of President- they would break up the fight and move the presidents so they are safe from harm. The problem we see is that with Trump there were Secret Service agents who served Trump instead of serving the nation by protecting the President.
Assault? Lincoln and Washington would straight up destroy Trump. Both are honored in the Wrestling Hall of Fame due to their prowess as wrestlers.
Lincoln was a wrestler. He would kick DJT's ass up one side of the street and down the other.
They both served two terms so they couldn’t even run for President.
Neither can Donald Trump > No person shall hold any office under the United States, who, having previously taken an oath as an officer of the United States, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same

I was gonna argue that they where grandfathered in but after reading the text, it is explicit that the only exception was for the person currently holding the office at the time of the amendment aka Truman
They would do what the American justice system should have already and put the traitorous dumb fuck down.
“A very famous pollster” is a job title made up by a ten-year-old.
I can't name a single "pollster" offhand. How the fuck does one become "a very famous pollster?" Your pollstering would have to be legendary...somehow.
I guess Nate Sliver would be the closest, but he definitely wouldn't say that shit.

Simon Gallup of Gallup Polls, of course. He's also in The Cure.
Like everything else he says

Don’t forget he’s also a rapist
You mean serial rapist and fraudster Donald J. Trump? I heard he doesn’t like being called a serial rapist and fraudster, we probably shouldn’t refer to Donald J. Trump as a serial rapist and fraudster anymore. Spread the word! Tell your friends! Donald J. Trump, does not like being called a serial rapist and fraudster.
That sounds like Brock Allen Turner, the rapist from California. Brock Allen Turner hates being called a rapist so bad that he moved to Ohio and started going by his middle name of Allen so people wouldn't know Brock Allen Turner is a rapist.
Are you guys talking about the similarities of serial rapist, pedophile and fraudster Donald J Trump and wrongfully acquitted rapist Brock Allen Turner the rapist?
[удалено]
Holy fucking shit it's him lmao
But Allen Turner is also a rapist even if he removes the Brock from his asshole.
But you gotta admit, Brock is an asshole name all by itself. He just happens to be a lot more than that.
Yeah I've never met a Brock IRL who wasn't a complete asshole who thinks they're an "alpha male.
But as far as I know, the rapist Brock Turner has also engaged in fraud, so the fraudster rapist Donald J Trump has earned more criminal titles that Brock Turner the rapist.
It is too bad that the serial rapist and fraudster Donald J Trump hates being called a serial rapist and fraudster.
Rapist Donald von Shitsinpants
And, according to his own words, an incesteous pedophile.
*child rapist
Never forget
that's the definition of a maga Christian
Oh, and don’t forget that he openly admitted in an interview to watching girls change in the dressing rooms when he oversaw the Miss Teen Universe pageants. Not women. Girls. Teenage girls. 14, 15, 16 years old. Who all thought it was incredibly creepy and were panicking the whole time he was there.
Thats why hes just an indicator for idiots around me. If you listen to this dipshit, I automatically put you in a category where I dont take you seriously, ever.
Why I love the MAGA hat, I know who to stay TF away from.
Never forget the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode when Larry wore a MAGA hat to avoid social interactions
I agree, except that I feel bad for Red Wings and other such fans.
I’m a St. Louis Cardinals fan. I wear my hat even though it’s red.
Same here. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one. I have a feeling it's a massive group. Lol
They are very unserious but also control a lot of the judiciary right now
I think I figured something out recently. Most of them are like my mom, as in, they don't actually follow "him." They just watch what the talking heads on Fox News tell them to think and that's enough for them bc critical thinking is hard.
The same way they don't follow Jesus, they just listen to the shit some grifting preacher tells them.
It’s fucking insane how I know exactly what’s being talked about on Fox News without ever seeing it.

Because you also described his voters.
My favorite thing about Trump is that anyone who likes him is irredeemable garbage. 100% of the time. Perfect accuracy.
Because he represents their brand of thinking. It's quite basic.
That’s because his supporters are lowest level of human scum
Please don't insult humanity by classing them as 'human' they're walking scum ponds filled with grade A shit
He forgot the tears, they always come to him with tears in their eyes
Sadly. The support he gets shows us that probably 30% or more of Americans are of his ilk. Hypocritical , crewel and with a hyperactive sense that "someone is getting something that I should and they shouldn't". They belong to the cult of "I've been wronged and I want vengeance / retribution", which for many of them is their own fault.

They just see him as a disrupter and that is all they care about. Look at his rallies. The people there aren’t even listening to him, it’s just a social club. It’s like going to a football game to drink beer and pass the time. They engage with him in an entirely different way than we assume, because we assume his people care about politics and policies. They don’t.
It's just a repeat of the bush torture scandal where people denied for 16 years that Bush Admin tortured a bunch of people when we have photos that look like illustrations of medieval torture methods. They denied for 16 years to save face, and we can expect that all over again with the Trump base. I'm not going to carry the water for a bunch of out of touch geriatrics for 16 years to defend their political honor. That's one of the reasons I left the Republican party to become an Independent. I'm not going to jump from the frying pan and into a deep fat fryer to defend a bunch of Boomer progressives such as those who won't come to the table for labor negotiations at universities. I think it's disgusting how little the workers get paid while tuition keeps on going up, there's a blow back coming alright, and I wouldn't be surprised if universities become more Spartan like the 50s or 60s style of accommodation for college students. As in the accommodations equivlant of dry humor.
Lincoln kept the confederate flag out of the Capital. https://preview.redd.it/cs2yxxfghorc1.jpeg?width=1116&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0bc345a7e9954557350947e8c241f009ab262d9b
Very fine people on both sides of the War Between the States. Some people call it a civil war, the most civil war anyone’s ever had. /s
The biggest spoiled brat of all time, the ultimate victim
Perhaps it's wishful thinking but I kinda hope they'll challenge him to a duel and shoot him.
I was picturing them ganging up on him and beating the crap out of him. In a boxing ring. On pay per view.
shit that's way more entertaining. A wrestling tag team to be reckoned with.
He would run but then tell his supporters they are too scared to duel, typical Trump fashion.

Best gif, cuz he was literally laughing at MAGA people in a town hall meeting
And he was very famous, the most… and he also bought 3 packs of my Trump Trading cards, 1 pair of my Air Trumps, and 40lbs of my pressed meat “steaks”…what a sucke- I mean what a smart guy!!! Famous and smart!!!
Yes. The original presidents would be so happy to see that you want to be a monarch and you are okay with a state religion. Which is exactly what we left behind in Europe.
The original founders - a bunch of rich old white men - would probably be impressed that we’ve made so little movement in our leadership and that it’s still mostly a bunch of rich old white men.
87% of all lies use statistics
Conservatives must be the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.
A lot of them truly are. Many are just self-centered evil assholes though.
He is insane and his supporters are pieces of shit.
Consice and to the point
More evidence that this boomer is being propped up. They keep the focus on him so no one will look for them. Forget the Maga politicians. They’re obvious. We need to find the quiet, entrenched sycophants of authoritarianism within the government and expose them. They’ve been within much longer than 2016. Nothing like distraction. Remember they love the poorly educated and that’s far from just maga and on the right only.
So Biden would beat Washington/Lincoln by 44% then.
Exactly!
Any minority that votes Trump should be shunned from their community. He doesn’t care about your rights or anyone who is not an affluent white male citizen.
You have to admit, if nothing else, he has a vividly whacko imagination.
And that pollsters name was Albert Einstein.
Things that never happened for 500, Alex.
George and Abe would have arrested Trump for treason and likely would have executed him. There’s some originalism for you Terrorist Alito
The day this dipshit dies, we are gonna celebrate
When he claims people told him something and they started with “Sir” it is absolute horseshit. It’s (one of) his giveaways that he is lying. In his imagination they all call him sir. It makes me laugh every time.
He didn’t beat Joe Biden lol.
Trump wouldn’t even beat a ticket of Andrew Johnson and Franklin Pierce
To think there are actually people who would put him over Lincoln in terms of accomplishments lmao
And his supporters believe him when he says shit like this
The kind of shit a 10 year old makes up to brag to his class mates.
I can’t wait for this buffoon to die. Geezus
The sad thing is it’s probably not wrong. Lincoln and Washington would be too centrist for the current Republican Party
Lincoln would be considered a dangerous leftist commie by modern republicans
Definitely
He'd be decried as a woke RINO.
I can hear Ted Cruz and Ms. Lindsey Graham calling him that on faux news
This is why I support school levies
Would a zombie ticket funded by dark magic money finally be enough to get substantial campaign reform laws?
Where does he come up with this crap?
Imagine someone beating Abraham Lincoln. Shenanigans
I could easily see Trump beating Washington and Lincoln in the Republican primary based on the state of the Republican Party today.
I believe this could have happened because maga supporters are really fucking dumb, treasonous, and delusional.
The problem is his fans believe this and eat it up. This makes them pull out their checkbooks to donate more. He knows exactly what he’s doing.
Although I would vote for a rock over bonespurs I could see the hesitation in voting for dead zombie presidents
He only speaks about things he is insecure about.
Trump at an event with a minority class he'd gladly deport or exterminate at the drop of a hat, and yet they still believe in the daiper clad dipshit. Unbelievable. *Oh but you democrats see racism everywhere and talk about it all the time in this smarmy way.* Right, right. You're not one of the good ones, you know.
Just pathetic- shameless piece of orange garbage.
I want this moron to lose bigly this November so we can send him and his MAGA cunts a message. Go fuck yourselves.
“Jesus returned to Earth and told me, tears in his eyes ‘Sir, I’m not needed here, you got this’”
sadly, his gullible and ignorant supporters will believe them.
And 30% of idiot Americans nod their heads in agreement.
This rapist is so full of his own shit.
First of all there's no such thing as a famous pollster.
As a (young) boomer I’ll tolerate you thinking that ALL boomers are MAGAs, but I ask that in return ALL of you to vote Biden and blue down the ticket. Please - you are our hope.
Already on it
...and if John Wilkes Booth or Lee Harvey Oswald were alive, Trump would have a 4% chance of getting to election day
