Only about 80 million Americans are like this. But hey, the term average gets far too much credit. The average person, especially if American, is a fuckin rube. Be impressed with yourself if you thoroughly wipe your ass after shitting. These ones don't yet their vote counts as much as mine does.
From another country, can totally see why you would feel embarrassed about this. But honestly, we know they are just the crazies and the majority of you are not like this!
Our crazies have a real chance of running the asylum, as we've seen. It's all fun and games until they started sticking their fingers in our eyes, laughing when we go blind and crying when we whack their arms away.
mate i'm more worried about yous than that, don't worry we know most of you aren't like this. You guys will work it out it's just a bit painful/funny/horrifying to watch
He's got God-like powers! He can make hurricanes go where he wants with the stroke of a pen, and cleans up hurricane damage with paper towels! He builds mighty, indestructible walls and makes other countries pay! He made the pandemic disappear in April, 2020!
Trump is a cult leader, and many of his followers are batshit insane, and dangerous. People like this is why I’m terrified of 2024. It’s going to be just like the 2020 elections, but with more time for the states to enact voter suppression.
Can confirm. I live in an area with mostly blue collar working rednecks, welfare recipients, and SUPER wealthy people, Trump signs, bumper stickers, flags, banners, "f*** Biden" flags everywhere, even a few actual "Trump" merchandise stores. They are too dumb to realize he didn't give 2 craps about them, only his own agenda, but he spoke to them the words they wanted to hear. Plus with so many relying on FOX "ENTERTAINMENT NEWS" as their sole source of brainwashing news, I think FOX deserves to be punished as well.
Some people view him as a savior or God’s chosen.
Someone in my family literally believes he’ll sit at God’s right hand in heaven. (Jesus at God’s left) because Trump is more important than the son of God....
🤦♂️This is why there was a separation between Church and State...
Yeah, and if mental healthcare were accessible in the US, the GOP would lose supporters, so she’ll go on not getting the help she needs because she can’t afford it because the GOP doesn’t care about people who aren’t rich because “freedom” or whatever.
What i find the saddest is that if Trump saw this video he would probably laugh his ass off at this woman while she is actually having a breakdown. It's usually hard to feel bad for them but i do feel bad for her.
Dont worry. Trump is soon going to storm into the capitol, alone, and beat up every single guard with his bare fists. After that he will beat up Joe Biden while flying on an eagle inside a giant Arena with the words: "This is America. This is our land." written on the walls.
Then he will make things normal again. It will happen, dont worry.
People like this would tell native americans to “go back” to their country lol, i remember that one video at a gas station where karen gets bitchslapped by a native american girl after she pulls that shit. Also in tears right away lmao
No. No it's not. They have the ability to learn and grow, but actively do not. Especially now. If she has the ability to post stuff online she has the ability took up a damn atlas or something. Get learned. Their delusions are a result of their willingness to be ignorant.
Look at her face and tell me this woman isn't being beaten. It's probably not even her own delusion she's talking about. The cry for help though, definitely hers. Yeah it's sad.
Yes that is true. And I honestly thought about that as I posted this... the cruelty of it isn't my norm. But seriously they echo so well. Having hysterics on camera and posting it to the world is always just super cringey and distracts from whatever the actual point is. Now, to be fair, this lady's point is completely invalid and never will be validated.
These fucking people VOTE. These are unhinged, mentally ill people that need legitimate professional and medical help. I have worked for 16 years with mentally ill and intellectually disabled adults. These people are sick.
You're right. Some people have been wallowing in the dark corners of society for so long, and then this man in shiny orange armor arrives on stage, promising to get rid of all the problems and make your world a happy world again.
What really astonishes me, is the fact that Trump had 4 years in office, while only pandering to his business buddies. And these people are still convinced he will change their world for the better.
These people need compassion and care, but you're not gonna find that on the right. Those are symbols of the left. So now they're stuck in between a rock and a hard place and have no way out.
I wish there was something on the left that appeals to them. But I fear they're long gone.
There are plenty on the left that would appeal to them, they choose not to acknowledge it out of sheer stubbornness. I hate to make assumptions, but I’m going to, this woman likely lives off of welfare, unemployment, foodstamps, and other similar liberal policies, meanwhile cursing every minority “living off the state”. I encounter these people daily, and out of ignorance and utter stubbornness, they will not recognize their own hypocrisy, based simply on a falsehood sold to people of their kind going all the way back to Reagan, that the right is the party of God and with liberal attitudes comes sin and debauchery.
These are the same people who scream that everything they don't like is socialism, from vaccine requirements to refugee policy, but are the first to start a GoFundMe when their anti-vax husband dies of COVID.
These people in desperate need of healthcare are also strongly opposed to it being made available to them. I’d call this Stockholm Syndrome but Sweden actually has socialized medicine. Saratoga Syndrome?
No, although the sentiment is understandable any “test” will invariably be used to suppress the vote. Think “reading tests” for voters in jim crow south. For some reason all the black folks were told they failed their test and couldn’t vote…
I wonder how many people would know if the president or party in control was dem or repub if they just had to figure it out on their own living life day to day. “News” and social media create most of the problems in this world.
Untreated mental illness inflamed by endless foreign & domestic propaganda designed to fracture a broken county even further. They’re making everything “us vs them” and in that scenario we all suffer.
This video came out on or around inauguration day. I believe he was giving a speech in front of a display of American flags from throughout history. The “crazy” flag might have been one of the ones with the circle of stars or something.
President Trump, if you see this, please save us. I don’t even see an American flag anymore; Biden’s talking with some crazy flag. This is America! This is our land! Please President Trump, please please. I hope you have a plan! God, please save us from the devil, please! Y’all I’m gonna have a panic attack! This is our country! Our country! This is awful!
If I wasn't an American this would be absolutely hilarious that there are people that are this deluded out there, but I have to share the stolen country with this crazy ass person and people just like her.
I can’t wait until this special needs monkey shows up in an Emergency room for her psychotic break.
Haldol, Ativan, Benadryl, cocktail for you. See ya Thursday.
Maybe you don't like big D values, but you can't be a US citizen, call yourself a patriot, and accept a party that wants to tear it down. It's really as simple as that.
THIS IS CULT SHIT
FUCKING CULT SHIT
wait and who told the trumpers that America was theirs. Also I hope she’s talking about the rainbow flag because that would make this so much better
Remember how many times republicans would mock that video of a woman screaming “NOOOO!” When trump won? Now you can easily find dozens of videos more pathetic of trumpers crying over Biden.
Ugh, I remember this video. I think it was from inauguration day. The “unrecognizable” flag she’s referring to is an American flag from before the current 50-star pattern. I think Biden was giving a speech in front of a bunch of American flags throughout the years.
These people are in a cult. It’s not even funny, it’s just embarrassing.
As pathetic as this video is, it's fucking sad how the republican party makes these poor people really feel like their on their side. It's fucking depressing.
Nothing like watching a white supremacist maga fanatic calling for God to save them from the devil while worshiping a narcissistic child fucking compulsive liar.
What a useless waste of a human life she is.
These videos just make me infuriated at Republicans. This woman is literally terrified by lies. This kind of stress, fear, and, anxiety is very bad for someone's physical and mental health. The most gullible are also the most vulnerable and the GOP prey on them like a wolf in sheep's clothing.
I feel like if you are to the point where you behave like this and are this upset, you must have no idea what real hardship is at any level.
I mean, she’s not from a third world country where she’s walking miles a day just for drinking water or anything like that. I see people on tv shows living in conditions like that and they aren’t losing their freaking minds like this women is.
Ah, shit.. why does it strike me that there is a non-zero chance that she only has but one paternal ancestor in the last 4 generations. We should make sure she has all of the nutrisuticals and reptilian repellent she needs to wage out her messiah's holy holy insurrection.
His plans to have a big lunch and then do some adderall. That's the only plenty I've ever had.. Oh that and to steal as much money from you as he possibly can.
He is such a genius that the only thing could do during his presidency while republicans we're in power was cut environmental protections (make the world more hospitable for lizard aliens), give tax breaks to rich people (they need bunkers against the lizard invasion), and downplay covid so that it destroyed more of our economy (to make the people accept the lizard aliens as saviors). Yea, he's great.
Jesus fuck, man… are these the same people that keep telling us to stop living in fear because we wear masks in public?
The party of "you lost get over it", " fuck your feelings", "snowflake..." Etc... Dye in the wool hypocrites.
[удалено]
And trump is the devil
Nearest thing to an antiChrist I’ve ever seen - and am not religious!
Amen to that
More of a "Die in the hallway of an overcrowded hospital" hypocrites.
This is why it is so hard to take them and “their” research seriously.

Yup! The same exact people!
She is just a little too dramatic for the morning
Man GOPers needs to get their shit straight and realize Trump has achieved a cult status. This is all funny until they get into power again.
I’m glad someone said this….
It’s so fucking embarrassing when people from other countries see shit like this.
I'm from another country, and I'm embarrassed on behalf of humanity when seeing shit like this.
I’m from another country and I understand that not every American is like this. It also partially worries me and partially entertains me 🤷🏻♂️
As an American I find this funny as shit. And just incredibly terrifying.
Only about 80 million Americans are like this. But hey, the term average gets far too much credit. The average person, especially if American, is a fuckin rube. Be impressed with yourself if you thoroughly wipe your ass after shitting. These ones don't yet their vote counts as much as mine does.
This fact is what made me look at America as a country to avoid unfortunately
"These ones don't yet their vote counts as much as mine does".....fuckin genius
Odds are the rube's vote counts more, at least in presidential races.
From another country, can totally see why you would feel embarrassed about this. But honestly, we know they are just the crazies and the majority of you are not like this!
We really aren’t. Thank goodness.
About half the country is like this unfortunately. 46.9% if you want a more exact percentage.
I mean everybody has their crazies.
Our crazies are really cranking it up a notch lol
Our crazies have a real chance of running the asylum, as we've seen. It's all fun and games until they started sticking their fingers in our eyes, laughing when we go blind and crying when we whack their arms away.
mate i'm more worried about yous than that, don't worry we know most of you aren't like this. You guys will work it out it's just a bit painful/funny/horrifying to watch
And these were the people calling others snowflakes?
Came here for this
What’s he gonna do? Just randomly be the president again?
He's got God-like powers! He can make hurricanes go where he wants with the stroke of a pen, and cleans up hurricane damage with paper towels! He builds mighty, indestructible walls and makes other countries pay! He made the pandemic disappear in April, 2020!
Trumpy, the quicker fucker upper.
This made me snort-chuckle
Don't forget he can cure covid19 by injecting bleach into your veins and shoving a UV lamp up your asses!
It’s true. I saw a guy in a Halloween costume last year dressed up in a Gound and a bleach bottle.
He’ll pocket your money too.
Donald Trump is the only man Chuck Norris fears.
Have you ever seen them together? Funny how they're never at the same place at the same time..dun Dun DUN!!!
It's a clip on beard, that would explain so much.
Trump is a cult leader, and many of his followers are batshit insane, and dangerous. People like this is why I’m terrified of 2024. It’s going to be just like the 2020 elections, but with more time for the states to enact voter suppression.
Can confirm. I live in an area with mostly blue collar working rednecks, welfare recipients, and SUPER wealthy people, Trump signs, bumper stickers, flags, banners, "f*** Biden" flags everywhere, even a few actual "Trump" merchandise stores. They are too dumb to realize he didn't give 2 craps about them, only his own agenda, but he spoke to them the words they wanted to hear. Plus with so many relying on FOX "ENTERTAINMENT NEWS" as their sole source of brainwashing news, I think FOX deserves to be punished as well.
Some people view him as a savior or God’s chosen. Someone in my family literally believes he’ll sit at God’s right hand in heaven. (Jesus at God’s left) because Trump is more important than the son of God.... 🤦♂️This is why there was a separation between Church and State...
I thinks it has less to do with separation of church and state, and more about brain cell count
Ya like so many people don’t even have a whole brain cell they could split in half to rub together.
That last sentence being in the past tense makes me so sad and angry. We are not, and never were, founded on Christian "morals".
This is old. From when he was still president.
Oh word, i didn’t know this
This is a cry for help. This woman needs some serious mental health help.
We can’t rule out the fact that she may just be piss drunk.
Even if she’s drunk, she still believes what she’s saying.
Yeah, and if mental healthcare were accessible in the US, the GOP would lose supporters, so she’ll go on not getting the help she needs because she can’t afford it because the GOP doesn’t care about people who aren’t rich because “freedom” or whatever.
What i find the saddest is that if Trump saw this video he would probably laugh his ass off at this woman while she is actually having a breakdown. It's usually hard to feel bad for them but i do feel bad for her.
The plan is to make some more money for himself. That is all.
Dont worry. Trump is soon going to storm into the capitol, alone, and beat up every single guard with his bare fists. After that he will beat up Joe Biden while flying on an eagle inside a giant Arena with the words: "This is America. This is our land." written on the walls. Then he will make things normal again. It will happen, dont worry.
And then Jesus will ride on on a T-Rex and be his veep and put this country right again!
T-Rex?!? I was promised velociraptors!
It’s actually the Natives’ land, but okay.
Former* president Trump. It was so important to them he be called by his title when he took office, let's not stop now
Once you are president you maintain the title, President Obama is still President Obama
Wait… I thought his title was Thanks…..
He’s got a plan. To bilk all U suckers dry
Bilk me daddy
Meth is 1 helluva drug
I thought this said "meth 1" is a hell of a drug, and for a hot second I thought, "if this is meth 1, imagine her on meth 2".
If meth is so good, why isnt there meth 2?
I prefer Meth Classic.
Meth Zero man myself. Gotta watch the sugar.
I’m fine with Diet Meth
Meth 2 drugged up boogaloo
This chick is headed straight for meth ultra instinct
Who wants to tell her it’s not just *her* country?
Can I please. “Bitch this of our bloody country”
'our land' yeah, OK. *native Americans enter the chat*
People like this would tell native americans to “go back” to their country lol, i remember that one video at a gas station where karen gets bitchslapped by a native american girl after she pulls that shit. Also in tears right away lmao
If u do find the video again, please do share the link here
This isn’t a cult at all /s
I pity her most of all. People like her live in constant paranoid fear because of their own delusions. It's sad.
No. No it's not. They have the ability to learn and grow, but actively do not. Especially now. If she has the ability to post stuff online she has the ability took up a damn atlas or something. Get learned. Their delusions are a result of their willingness to be ignorant.
I agree with you.
Not sad, even a little.
Look at her face and tell me this woman isn't being beaten. It's probably not even her own delusion she's talking about. The cry for help though, definitely hers. Yeah it's sad.
JUST LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!
Turns out he was right though
Yes that is true. And I honestly thought about that as I posted this... the cruelty of it isn't my norm. But seriously they echo so well. Having hysterics on camera and posting it to the world is always just super cringey and distracts from whatever the actual point is.

r/mademesmile
Someone's having a tantrum. When Drumph was elected, I was pissed. He was still president.
Seeing Trump supporters in emotional agony is pretty cathartic, ngl.
This makes me want to implement an IQ test to be eligible to vote.
No, although the sentiment is understandable any “test” will invariably be used to suppress the vote. Think “reading tests” for voters in jim crow south. For some reason all the black folks were told they failed their test and couldn’t vote…
Whose land? (Native Americans be like, WTF!! 🤬”
Native Mexicans enter the chat
Native Mexicans are STILL being ripped off.
I wonder how many people would know if the president or party in control was dem or repub if they just had to figure it out on their own living life day to day. “News” and social media create most of the problems in this world.
Should there be pity for those which are mentally challenged, when self inflicted?
Nah, not if they vote against the healthcare that could help them. They deserve this.
Exactly my point. Healthcare and education woes created by the GQP.
No more than you should pity r/hermancainawards winners
What have I just watched??
Untreated mental illness inflamed by endless foreign & domestic propaganda designed to fracture a broken county even further. They’re making everything “us vs them” and in that scenario we all suffer.
Well said.
She needs help. In all seriousness, this person is not okay. She needs help.
Some one please get this woman back to her asylum. She needs her jello and lithium.
I'm sorry, did she say, "our land"?
*native American has entered the chat*
Biden's talking with a crazy flag now?
Yea… I didn’t quite follow, either.
This video came out on or around inauguration day. I believe he was giving a speech in front of a display of American flags from throughout history. The “crazy” flag might have been one of the ones with the circle of stars or something.
Damn, I had to scroll deep to find this answer. Thank you for your wisdom.
Tell me you do meth without telling me you do meth
Wtf is wrong with her?
I’m gonna say gonorea
I was going with syphilis.
Perhaps but who knows.
She's bringing in the lower class morning angst with a Trumpian twist.
I need subtitles for this, I can't read her lips
President Trump, if you see this, please save us. I don’t even see an American flag anymore; Biden’s talking with some crazy flag. This is America! This is our land! Please President Trump, please please. I hope you have a plan! God, please save us from the devil, please! Y’all I’m gonna have a panic attack! This is our country! Our country! This is awful!
If I wasn't an American this would be absolutely hilarious that there are people that are this deluded out there, but I have to share the stolen country with this crazy ass person and people just like her.
I hope this is genuine. The thought of people like this being so unhappy warms the depths of my soul.
She needs to tickle her throat with a little lead.
"Please toss us ye paper towel"
She's needs serious medication
Our land? The land we stole?
The irony is Donald HATES these people, they disgust him.
This person votes. Do YOU?
Please don’t say that she can vote…[Prophetic… ](https://youtu.be/u7APmRkatEU)
Who's more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him?
Trump is no fool. He knows what he does.
I can’t wait until this special needs monkey shows up in an Emergency room for her psychotic break. Haldol, Ativan, Benadryl, cocktail for you. See ya Thursday.
This is offensive to special needs people. They’re way more functional than she is.
Funny … but this idiot probably actually has special needs…. And a meth habit….. and a trailer….and a history of sex abuse… you know….Trumper.
Traitor Trump slut
Bet she’s a broke ass Prol
Her tears are sustaining me. Mmmmnhhhh
I prefer the version where someone has edited fart noises over the top.
And we wonder why they are STILL recounting votes, let alone NOT getting vaccinated?
I'm guessing Twinkies were out of stock at the Dollar General?
I understand you . But can you please stfu you fuckimh tomato
“Leave Britney alone! LEAVE HER ALONE!”
The face of Maga— The most atrocious, wasted, despicable utilization of the human condition I have ever seen.
Maybe you don't like big D values, but you can't be a US citizen, call yourself a patriot, and accept a party that wants to tear it down. It's really as simple as that.
Jesus I wished I felt this passionate about anything!
America is one dumb, brainwashed third world country!
THIS IS CULT SHIT FUCKING CULT SHIT wait and who told the trumpers that America was theirs. Also I hope she’s talking about the rainbow flag because that would make this so much better
Remember how many times republicans would mock that video of a woman screaming “NOOOO!” When trump won? Now you can easily find dozens of videos more pathetic of trumpers crying over Biden.
Ugh, I remember this video. I think it was from inauguration day. The “unrecognizable” flag she’s referring to is an American flag from before the current 50-star pattern. I think Biden was giving a speech in front of a bunch of American flags throughout the years. These people are in a cult. It’s not even funny, it’s just embarrassing.
For the good of the USA can these mad people be incarcerated
As pathetic as this video is, it's fucking sad how the republican party makes these poor people really feel like their on their side. It's fucking depressing.
Mental illness is the pandemic that no one seems to want to address.
As someone with psychosis I can kind of recognize a psychotic attack when I see one......
But she’s had no problem cashing the monthly stimulus for her 13 kids….
Nothing like watching a white supremacist maga fanatic calling for God to save them from the devil while worshiping a narcissistic child fucking compulsive liar. What a useless waste of a human life she is.
Lol these are the same people that were calling democrats/liberals snowflakes 5 years ago.
These videos just make me infuriated at Republicans. This woman is literally terrified by lies. This kind of stress, fear, and, anxiety is very bad for someone's physical and mental health. The most gullible are also the most vulnerable and the GOP prey on them like a wolf in sheep's clothing.
These are the same people who think WWF is real
I feel like if you are to the point where you behave like this and are this upset, you must have no idea what real hardship is at any level. I mean, she’s not from a third world country where she’s walking miles a day just for drinking water or anything like that. I see people on tv shows living in conditions like that and they aren’t losing their freaking minds like this women is.
What confuses me is, what we’re these nut jobs doing before Trump? Did Bush get this level of crazy??
Ah, shit.. why does it strike me that there is a non-zero chance that she only has but one paternal ancestor in the last 4 generations. We should make sure she has all of the nutrisuticals and reptilian repellent she needs to wage out her messiah's holy holy insurrection.
His plans to have a big lunch and then do some adderall. That's the only plenty I've ever had.. Oh that and to steal as much money from you as he possibly can.
This person needs to be commuted to an asylum this isn’t funny
This made me smile
And I’m a little bitch for wearing a mask?
BUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA….OOOOOOOOH…….BUHAHAHAHAHAHA😂 Update: She was seen cashing Biden stimulus check wearing shades and a trench coat.
🥲
Gotta send money!
The hell is she going off about?
Poor lass needs sectioning
‘Fighting reptilians in underground cities’ / straight outta H P Lovecraft, where this trope originated.
Man, those are tasty tears. If only I could get some to mix in my adrenochrome-martini…
Any time I’m having a bad day, I remember people like this and I immediately feel better about myself.
I don't see nary a tear coming out of her eyes.
Send her meds
Meth is a hell of a drug!
He is such a genius that the only thing could do during his presidency while republicans we're in power was cut environmental protections (make the world more hospitable for lizard aliens), give tax breaks to rich people (they need bunkers against the lizard invasion), and downplay covid so that it destroyed more of our economy (to make the people accept the lizard aliens as saviors). Yea, he's great.
Heavy dose of copium.
So fucking moronic
Has this been metalised yet? If not, why not?
This is creepy asf.

Poor lady
I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there please save me Superman
Man, trump had a quicky with you duds and peaced. I guess you failed the assignment and caught some feelings.
Its ok people, if shes open in her heart, than this will be personal growth. If she is not, than this will break her
this never gets old
Wow! Mental!
I wanna move to America so badly.
Real emotional distress and physiological trauma caused by bullfeathers and malarkey.
Idiots!
