If you vote for this man, you are a garbage person.
There’s also a 1:1 probability that you’re a sociopath, mentally unstable, brainwashed, legitimately stupid, or willfully ignorant.
Why not all 5?
No. You’re underestimating the legitimate ignorance of the electorate. Give this comment a read.
Thats a great read, and echoes what ive been seeing at my own workplace. Those who even remotely follow news (outside of Faux News) are all voting biden. Those who dont, hear that bidens old, that hes out of touch, and want trump to win out of spite for how much they hate the political climate.
That whole, “vote for trump or abstain to stick it to the man” thing is trending like nothing else. Even here on Lemmy, but esp on reddit.
TALK TO THE PPL IN UR LIFE, NOW!
And coincidentally that position favors russia. Somehow. It’s a mystery.

Just follow this comment chain.
And im banned from the sub for this. Fucking terrifying shit if ur at all into democracy or oopsed to fascism.
Please spread word of this happening. On reddit this shit is far far more widespread. There, leftist subs that once prided themselves on never banning anyone will happily ban anyone who says that not voting for biden is playing right into fascist hands, even if said comment generates positive feedback!
Yup my local magat has no idea that any trials happened for the Jan 6 insurrectionists. He thinks Biden personally sent them to jail without trial.
When I showed him the stats for guilty pleas and convictions he changed the subject to Hunter’s problems.
Great post 👍 Thanks for sharing.
Or just a plain hateful sadist.
Not to mention a wannabe Russian asset
I just want to never have to hear about this cunt again. Is that why people like him?
I mean, there’s a solution. Feel free to help us all out. I’ll donate to your go fund me defense fund.
I hear you, but I’m just not sure how spitting into his McDonald’s hamberders keeps him from becoming President.
He might get some of your healthy bacteria that could influence his gut health and turn him around now that he doesn’t have to deal with terrible butt problems
Maybe all of this comes down to butt problems.
Oh I want to hear about him again.
I want to hear about him dying in prison.
Yeah, in an ideal world, the next and last thing I would hear about trump is Obituary: Donald (tiny hands) Trump, the worst President in history passed away today after rolling over in his sleep and suffocating on his pillow. He was unable to roll back due to diet and exercise history. His family has not picked up the body due to the willing members being incarcerated.
Real people will die if he becomes POTUS again and yet America minces words about what kind of ideology he represents. He better hope the mob doesn’t ever get their hands on him.
Mussolini knows
ugh the leftist in me is salivating at the thought.
I don’t know if by “mob” you mean organized crime or dipshit Jan 6 traitors, but either way, he’s leading it.
That’s arguably treason.
The man organized an insurrection and it was televised. He won’t be held accountable for this either.
You must be referring to the peaceful tour in which people were bludgeoned, trespassed, and shot in an attempt to stop the certification of a democratic election. Please don’t exaggerate!! (:
It’s just sparkling conservatism
Only if it comes from the treasonous region of Russia.
He’s running under the banner of the people who did this:
So yeah.
Luckily for him, he’s had good luck with treason so far.
This literally sounds like a mob guy coming into a store and “suggesting” that you need to pay “protection money” or else something bad may happen…
He’s still the best US president candidate Russia has
The best money can buy
Sometimes I like to imagine that trump is actually an elaborate honey pot, and any day now all of his supporters are going to be rounded up for being treasonous idiots too dangerous to leave unattended. But no, people really are that awful.
The guy’s fool and a security threat. He should be in a cell, not on television.
I’m not entirely convinced that Trump isn’t set up and supported by the Bush family so W didn’t go down in history as the worst modern president ever.
Did you know that Russia has weapons of mass destruction?
Trump wouldn’t say that about Russia.
He would say that about Ukraine.
Yeah I think I have heard a thing or two about something called the chilly war or something like that. Sounds delicious at first but then you read up on it and it was a lot of dick wagging but with nukes instead of dicks.
He and his co-conspirators are what gitmo was built for and where they belong. Traitor’s and terrorists the lot of them.
Trump should be in prison but Gitmo should not exist. Let’s not use Trump as an excuse to justify that atrocity.
I’m not going to say your wrong because your not but if we are going to continue to use it (we likely are), threat’s to our republic such as insurrectionists, a place like gitmo is surely where they should be.
That’s the longest run on sentence I’ve written in a while.
Trump is cool with enhanced interrogations. I say we let his fantasy of torturing traitors play out, and we find out what documents he stole, and what he really thinks about the 2020 election. It’s really a win-win.
Quick reminder: NATO’s collective defense clause, also known as Article 5, has only been triggered once. It was invoked in response to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.
Reminder that Trump was happy about those attacks that day because they made his property value go up
He said that on the day.
A few hours after the towers collapsed, he decided to call into a radio station and brag. No one asked him, he just did it. And he said:
“Well, it was an amazing phone call,” Mr Trump told WWOR. “I mean, 40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan. And it was actually – before the World Trade Center – was the tallest. And then when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second-tallest, and now it’s the tallest.”
And, like most things Trump says, it wasn’t even true. It was never the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan.
So, on 9/11, while first responders were digging through the rubble and pulling out corpses, Trump called up the biggest radio station in New York to lie about how tall his building was.
Completely normal behaviour. For a narcissist sociopath.
It was never the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan.
Are you sure about that? It was once the tallest building in the world, then the second tallest (after the Chrysler Building), and (Wikipedia says so) after the 70 Pine Street was build the 2nd tallest in “Lower Manhattan”.
As the article I linked to said-
As multiple fact checks later pointed out, this was not true. The Wall Street building had not been the tallest building in lower Manhattan in the 1970s, when the Twin Towers were constructed, nor was it the tallest in the area after 2001.
Yeah it doesn’t seem like you should vote for this guy.
Over 75 million people in this country are about to do that.
Don’t like it? Get out and vote.
Russia attacking NATO would give a significant chunk of the globe the green light to obliterate Putin.
This is likely the route to ending the war on Ukraine with the lowest loss of human life.
So… Go on Putin, try it.
That would actually be 4d chess. Encourage Russia to invade and let Poland crush it
The problem with this is that Russia will rather take whole world down with it than admit defeat. They don’t obey the rules (and laws) of war.
Anymore. The Russians themselves did for a time. Case in point the times a russian actively prevented WW3 or rather a nuclear exchange.
That’s a fairy tale - just another piece of Russian propaganda you seem to be unaware of.
So you are telling me Arkhipov and Petrov where just propaganda figures to promote the “good will” of the soviet union?
You can do that all day long, without hard facts I will not believe you, because both cases have been documented extensively and thoroughly. Ukrainian propaganda is doing a bad job, grasping at straws these days. I’m still 100% behind Ukraine, but negating everything and trying to paint anyone who isn’t in line as the bad guy is straight out of the soviet and russian handbooks.
Painting Russia as the rational side who actually wants peace and the evil West as the warmongers (not just for this war) is a fairy tale and one of the main taking points of Russian propaganda. I’m not saying you’re on their side but if you parrot them without putting it into perspective, you’re doing their bidding.
I’d never paint Russia as the rational side - which is why the distinction between Russia and the Soviet Union AND the distinction between individuals is important, imho.
Yes, nuclear warfare is definitely the right path forward for the world…
Ooooh right, nUcLeAr WaRfArE! Forgot about that. Yeah, we should probably just let them completely destroy Ukraine, and after they’re done, feed em whichever countries they want until they’ve had their fill.
Anything to keep Putin placated!
Appeasement worked so well for the world in the past…right.
Mutually assured destruction? Wats that?
Wats that?
That’s the reason we need to not give Putin a free pass to commit whatever evil he wants. He’ll saber rattle all day long, but he knows the second he calls that order that he’s signing his own death sentence. He cares about himself above all else, so that shit ain’t gonna happen regardless of how loudly they hint about it.
Stable genius.
Had he just said that NATO countries are failing their duty as a member as they’re not paying the agreed amount of money for the alliance he would actually sound sane. Most Europeans agree to that. The governments have been slacking for years, and now there is a war. Again.
Instead he talks like a lunatic. Fuck that guy.
It’s not even that simple, because paying can be done with money, but you can also send troops, or have troops ready to protect other countries, send equipment, etc.
So it’s not that black and white who pays what.
Also I think the biggest think Trump did to NATO for the EU, is that for the first time people actually realized the US isn’t always the allie we thought. It really depends on who’s president, something before Trump most people never thought about. It also really pushed the point of having an European army and other changes like that.
I don’t think he’s talking to NATO countries anymore than he’s talking to his party.
I think he’s asking Putin for help again.
I don’t know that Putin really wants anything more from Trump though. He got the discord he wanted to distract the US. He got to flex on all of the world by Trump getting elected and demonstrating his spook prowess.
But, that’s just my opinion, Putin has forgotten more about international politics and power than I’ll likely ever know.
Feeding his base. Republicans only platform is to trigger libs. They’re like monkeys throwing shit at their fellow citizens.
I might ‘encourage’ his staff to drown him in his gold toilet.
Give them free Taco Bell first.
I might ‘encourage’ someone to kick Trump square in the toad-from-mario-shaped microdicklette.
