Elvis Presley’s Suspicious Minds – was followed by the tinny sound of Justice for All, a rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner sung by defendants jailed over their alleged roles in the January 6, 2021, insurrection.
Their alleged roles?!?! YOU FUCKS goddammit Guardian what the motherfucking hell are you doing? They were convicted by a court of law there’s no alleged about it!! FOR FUCK’S SAKE.
well that and they where on video that they took of the event! in case anyone wants to go with the oh the court is rigged or something. definately no alleged about it.
Who exactly does this schlocky shit appeal to? This is obvious theatre; it’s scary how manipulable his base is.
They were convicted by a court of law there’s no alleged about it!!
Ah yes, the US courtroom, the one infallible entity in this cruel world…
He added: “We have languages coming into our country … they have languages that nobody in this country has ever heard of. It’s a horrible thing.”
He comes up with the weirdest shit.
What languages nobody has ever heard of? Spanish? Mandarin? German?
What languages nobody has ever heard
SIGN LANGUAGE!!
…I’ll see myself out.
You are the champion we need
Lol! Good answer.
Well in Trump’s case, English.

Maybe Latin or Sumerian?
It’s from the underground country of Hipsterkistan. You’ve probably never heard of it.
Ruby?
We have ____ coming into our country … they have _____ that nobody in this country has ever heard of. It’s a horrible thing.”
It’s ad libs at this point.
Always has been.
Does he mean like when English came into this country and nobody had ever heard of it?
I’ve heard of talking backwards in code to the beat of a babies heart. And then sucking the last drop of adrenochrome from the teet, sinking teeth to eat, ketchup, the walls! The walllls
Among the great tragedies of our time is the fact that this slimy rapist dirtbag conman isn’t already yesterday’s news. Fade the fuck away, Donald.
The American right are beyond pathetic that this whining fat orange bitch is the best they’ve been able to come up with for 3 consecutive election cycles. At best he’s a distraction from the shit our country needs to do and at worst he’s a danger to the entire world, us included. Demented dotard belongs in jail and nowhere near the levers of power.
He’s not a danger himself. He’s not in the shape for anything but hospice.
This is elder abuse and I feel terrified at the thought of anybody being in his skin.
Pretty sure Trump doesnt deserve that level of empathy
i feel like i tend to have a decently high level ability to understand and empathize with people, but i just can’t summon it for that man.
i’m sorry he was abused, but at some point, a person can just be a worthless pos.
100% agreed
At some point after that he may no longer be coherent enough.
There’s the quiet part that gets said out loud.
then there’s the part that they think, loudly.
Then there’s the parts that are so awful, they even think them quietly.

Removed, and 24 ban. Advocating violence.
I’m genuinely creeped out that someone saying these things can have so much support. Honestly I just want to go home and hide under the bed. A year ago when people said things about Trump like “authoritarian” and “fascist” and whatever else it was kinda true but also some hyperbole. Now it’s just plain true.
It was never hyperbole. Remember when he tried to overthrow democracy? Sorry, but you’re just coming to acceptance. This isn’t new. Ask historians.
Exactly. Anyone saying Trump criticism was just hyped up bullshit is a straight moron, or completely in denial. Sure, he’s just saying it plainly now, but it was really fucking obvious previously.
Same as his cultists who can’t face reality. They didn’t take him seriously and they don’t want to admit they were duped. (Yes, that’s an intentionally vague “they” because it applies to both sides)
You should see how they talk when they think they’re in their echo chambers. Hell, they just do it in the open now.
You should hit the streets and let everyone you know that Project 2025 doesn’t have to be real.
Those quotes sound way too coherent to be coming from Trump…
How does he manage to say the most Fascist shit so clearly but then everything else is just mumbled incoherent garbage?
It’s written by Steven Miller, Bannon, and the like
But yea, he’s good at saying the fascist shit. Rolls right off his grotesque tongue and out his putrid KFC-hole
Because someone else wrote it.
Trump is a moron and can barely string a sentence together when he is winging it. When he has a prompt and someone he owes money to tells him what to say, he is as eloquent as he can be.
I feel like the only one who sees through the bullshit. I feel like I’m the only one who has realized that trump isn’t a smart person nor good at speaking unless he has a script to follow that he can’t diverge from because as soon as he does the crazy cat lady is on display.
He says to a community to agrees with him and is posting the articles that say that

Yes, yes…you very special and unique little unicorn.
You’re the only one.
From what I see here and previously on reddit and when I was sort of (but not really) active on fb. I definitely feel like that or at the least I’m one of only a few willing to call out insanity and try to educate others so we all have a better future.
If more people like us would step up and be more active online and off, we may have been able to avoid the whole trump in office bit to begin with. I know that most us are not spotlight friendly and would rather just be left alone but we can’t live like that for the foreseeable future. Not until enough of the maggats and their leaders are in jail or barred from politics for life.
I was telling everyone I knew about trump when he first ran this time around. Even in my circles I’m an exception who knew what trump was and has known for 30+ years.
The article explains that he used a teleprompter for this speech and broke away from it a few times to ramble incoherently.
How does Merrick Garland sleep at night?
With a full bank account.
Indeed
And his people safe.
In a crypt most likely
In a hammock that perpetually leans to the right
Like a Republican.
Damn, these people have nothing in their lives but hatred.
This man says so many things daily that shows he is unfit, and the best defense we have against him is Biden. It is going to be a rough ride.
How are there not at least a million other citizens in the United States who would be better presidential candidates, not just these two old yokels.
Biden beat him the first time. Was that not good enough?
Trump still had a chance, and Biden is less popular than he was in 2020, I personally doubt Biden will win.
I’m afraid of it but I agree with you because “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity” so it’s very much possible for the orange leader to occupy the White House again, and possibly for the rest of his days.
No, we have other better options, but liberals will refuse to vote for anyone who they haven’t had led to them by the DNC establishment, and then act like everyone else is enabling fascism by suggesting actual leftist leadership.
Why do you think that regular voters get to decide who the DNC candidate is during a Democratic incumbent administration?
If you abstain from voting because you equate Biden to be as bad as Trump, Trump will be the next President. Don’t be a fucking idiot.
I hate Trump as much as the next guy, but that title is misleading:
the unprecedented success of the United States of America will be my ultimate and absolute revenge.”
Sure, but that “success” are coming after his “day 1 dictator” comments-- just a few short dots to connect and come up with the original title here.
Sure, but then quote the actual problematic comments, don’t purposely mislead with the one thing he said that wasn’t problematic. That just gives fuel to their persecution complex.
Right, but every new article seems to treat him with a blank slate. You could write a completely
unbiasedtrue article saying “Convicted rapist who wants to be dictator ‘for day one’ of his presidency says that he’ll use the ‘success of the US’ as his ultimate revenge.”The news fucking kowtows to this fascist’s feelings far too much IMO. Seems biased in the opposite direction, just so they can maintain a “neutral” tone.
edit: of course all news has bias, I meant truth instead
Dog whistles
These manipulative headlines only help Trump. In the same speech he says he is the only person who can stop WW3. A ridiculous statement that only a cult leader would say. He also said that Biden approved Nord Stream on day 2 of his presidency which is a complete lie. Nord Stream 1 was blown up and then Biden got Germany to cancel Nord Stream 2. The opposite of what Trump said. There is plenty of valid criticisms and no need to be manipulative of Trump’s words.
Meanwhile I just saw an article about donors being worried about Biden using note cards…
I’d be more worried about the genocide.
People ITT: Fine with supplying arms to a country engaged in genocide as long as it’s the dems doing it.
Yeah yeah yeah, you got us all figured out seeing as we’re not slovenly throwing charged words around while using conspiracy to deflect in our edits.
Maybe people are simply tired of hearing off-topic screeds? Nah, it’s the children that are wrong.
Tell me about the conspiracy of which you refer. I need to see the dems scramble to downvote your reply.
I’m sure when you vote for Biden he will get the message that you’re against genocide.
Well done, you certainly changed my mind. Before my posts were like, “yay genocide” but now I’m all, “genocide’s bad.”
What pablum you feed yourself.
Removed by mod
People like you probably don’t even care about genocide. After all, I don’t see these same “accounts” standing up for Ukraine with such passion. You’re just a stooge who wants Trump to win because you’re a shill, some dumb “burn it all to the ground” idiot, or both.
If we were sending missles to fucking Russia it’d be comparable. Now you’re starting to get it lol.
I don’t think you’ll succeed much by referring to anyone as a plebian. It’s just animosity for animosity’s sake.
People who blindly support either party are stupid.
You’re absolutely hilarious! Thanks for the laughs!
I’m glad 30,000 dead civilians is hilarious to you. Thank you for putting it in writing.
Removed and banned for misinformation. Biden is NOT engaging in genocide. Your propaganda will not be tolerated here.
I’m not happy about that, either, but my choice is between someone who’ll maintain the current level and someone who’ll make that genocide even worse and try to start one HERE, too. Both options are bad, but one is measurably and obviously less bad.
I’m sorry that that’s what your choices are, but at some point you have to start resisting and stop voting lesser of two evils, when both are blatantly evil as fuck. It’s genocide for fuck sake.
Stop voting for the lesser of two evils so you can vote for the greater? WHY DIDNT WE THINK OF THIS BEFORE!?!?!
Removed by mod
How about you vote for the lesser of two evils and also protest and do all the other stuff? Seriously do not understand what you’re advocating for.
bOtH siDeS are not the same here, kiddo. No matter how hard your propaganda tells you they are.
For starters, Biden is NOT committing genocide anywhere.
I’m sure history will remember the likes of you with disgust.
Such RAAAAAGE! Don’t worry, history couldn’t a shit about either of us. But the “likes of you” are usually remembers humorously for a while at least.
I mean, manufactured outrage over events happening in a country you probably couldn’t have pointed to on a map six months ago, to people you weren’t even aware were at war?
Things like this are usually never taken seriously at best- and laughed at at worst.
Removed by mod
what do you care? i thought you were ready for everyone to die.
You say this as if Ol’ Trumpie boy wouldn’t also contribute to both the Palestinian genocide AND the Ukrainian one
So then when he’s the president doing the genocide I’ll shit talk him. Pretty basic stuff.

The one thing Trump won’t do is start WW3. There are only two nations with nuclear arsenals that can threaten MAD, and the other is holding his leash.
deleted by creator
The EU would dick Putin down, and has a defensive pact as part of joining. Not to mention that there are multiple nuclear powers in the organization.

Lmao
Have you already forgotten his random assassination of that Iranian general? Or when he was trading barbs with NK, “this is the calm before the storm”?
How do you imagine either of those things provoking MAD?
Generally speaking I like to avoid wars in general, WW3/MAD or not.
That’s great, but the commenter specifically claimed he was going to start WW3 culminating in MAD.
Like, literally what he said.

Just… wow.
Is his campaign manager Vince McMahon?
Could be, they do know each other. Even worked together.
Trump is in the WWE Hall of Fame.
His venues have hosted Wrestlemanias, and he and Vince had a hair vs hair feud that culminated in a Wrestlemania match - Trump won.
No idea why this isn’t brought up more - the WWF in the late 90s was incredibly vulgar, racist, and sexist. And Trump intentionally associated with it. Why is that never discussed?
Because the kind of loser that liked WWE is the kind of person that is terminally online on the even nerdier version of Reddit.
Right, which makes Trump look like a giant fucking loser for working repeatedly with WWE since the 80s.
Which is why the Dems/Nikki Haley/Jeb should have brought it up repeatedly
Look into the term Kayfabe and how it relates to the rhetoric of Trump. There are several worthwhile analyses. Here is one such article:
