“Just move your forests to the ocean…”
I am seriously starting to think Trump has never seen a forested area in his life. What a fucking dumbass.
Remember when he said that forest fires started because people didn’t rake the forest enough?
That’s been a long running line of propaganda from the lumber industry. “old growth forests are messy and us lumber companies will clean them up!”
Which is funny because if you’ve ever been to an area that’s recently been logged (or “thinned” as they like to spin it), the ground is completely covered by a thick layer of all the branches they’ve trimmed off. Nope, no fire hazard there…
It’s like an SNL bit.
Equally as fucking dumb. It would be hilarious if he wasn’t who he is.
The guy who told us to inject disinfectant during the height of the pandemic is dumbass?
Or the guy that rambles like an incoherent 4th grader winging an oral report in front of his class:
“Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart —you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you’re a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.”
Yes. This guy is a fucking moron.
Will the media never learn not to give this moron a platform ? We do not need to hear his every “thoughts” on whatever topic. People who have not grasped at this point that he is as stupid as a sack of corrugated plastic will never be convinced. Stop giving him exposure for pity’s sake.
He’s a train wreck, and train wrecks get eyeballs which turn into sweet, sweet ad revenue.
His supporters are so dumb.
No surprise he guy that asked if they should nuke it to stop a hurricane.
Or inject disinfectant to fight Covid. The guy is full of great ideas. If I’m not mistaken, his last great idea to prevent forest fires was to rake the forest floor.
My comment from just this morning:
The whole thing was, if possible, even dumber than people think.
Can’t find the video any longer, all you can see now is Trump on the podium saying stupid shit, you miss the context.
Trump’s taking the stage, ill prepared as always, when he stops for a few moments to read a CDC infographic on ways to sterilize surfaces. Then he just turns on his mouth and lets it run.
God help me, there’s nothing more I can add to illustrate how idiotic it all was.
Oh, I remember, he also suggested somehow getting powerful light inside the body. The Covid briefings should have left no doubt amongst the populace that Trump is a blathering idiot that gives no thought to what comes out of his mouth or the potential consequences. That was mostly fine until he became the leader of the free world. That republicans are satisfied with him representing them is damming. Believe it or not, there are smart, articulate people with conservative politics. Trump is not among them.
*nuke
Thanks missed the typo.
Ah yes. Plenty of extra water up “north.”
We should dampen the forests while California is going through historic droughts, telling people not to water their lawns, aquifers drying up, lakes going dry, and the Colorado River output decreasing and continual debates on where that limited water goes.
Fucking idiot.
Let’s get Nestle on it then. The Colorado river still exists in Colorado we can redirect that. /s
My solution: jail Drumpf and wet the forest with conservative’s tears… they seem to cry so easily
there’s already enough toxins in the environment.
Fragile little snowflakes one and all.
My goodness, what an idea! Why didn’t I think of that?
Because you’re not a mentally deficient grifter?
I mean, that would work…
I also have a solution for gun violence. Just stop shooting people.
Dampen the guns
Guns don’t kill people.
Ammunition does.
Dampen the ammo.
This guy is so detached from reality, it’s surprising he’s not suggesting that California asks the Jews to use their weather control device to create rain where needed.
Conservatives don’t have enough backbone to actually defend this nonsense, they’ll just slither away when confronted about it. Oh, but they’ll still back this goddamn moron either way.
I remember when Trump suggested raking the California forest would prevent wildfires.
He was our president then, elected by the US. It was a very embarrassing time for the USA. The world laughed at us. I didn’t vote for him but he still made me feel shame for our country.
The USA has plenty to be shameful for in my opinion.
Obviously…?
You seem to have forgotten that he suggested to build a wall all along the US/Mexico border, have Mexico pay for it, then build a moat, and fill it with alligators.
Honestly after he suggested injecting lysol or bleach directly in to your veins to cure covid I will never be shocked at the slander that comes out of this idiot.
Huh… this one wasn’t The Onion.
The Onion got usurped by reality a while back.
“Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.” - Tom Lehrer
You know what’s great about Tom Lehrer? A lot of his songs are really dated, and yet still very funny.
Also, he released his entire catalog of songs- sheet music, lyrics and audio- to the public domain.
I just shared a link this morning to his song about Werner von Braun. Absolutely brilliant.
Yeah you can just use it as a good news site now.
Hard to satire reality when reality feels like satire.
So, when I read a headline about a politician talking about something, and what they say sounds so far beyond ridiculous and stupid, I imagine there is probably some level of context that makes it less stupid, but just poorly stated, that the particular article has no incentive to show.
Apparently not this one, as Trump went on to blame the Governor of California for not dampening the forests, and suggested the water falling in the north is “free.”
That is honestly one of the dumbest things I’ve read from an adult, and people cheered for it.
As Carlin once said- “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realise the “leader of the free world” was stupider than that.
I mean, his last big idea for the entire world being on fire was “rake the leaves,” so if raking and watering isn’t gonna work, what do we do? Nuke the forests? Draw a new fire map with a sharpie?
Me too. I’m always looking for the context, what really happened. Nope, nothing else to see here.
And this won’t even make national news. Meanwhile, Dan Quayle was too dumb to be VP because he spelled potatoe wrong.
Spoken like a guy who has never seen the vastness of our national forests.
Spoken like a guy who doesn’t put more than 5 seconds of thought into anything before spewing out his dumbass ideas. He just says any bullshit and his followers will clap and cheer no matter how insane it is.
You can see him looking around like “are they buying it?..” then the dumbasses cheer, then he commits. It’s just a feedback loop of stupidity.
Wasn’t the last idea to rake the forests?
You rake the forests first, then just turn on the sprinklers.
Wouldn’t have been much more surprised if he suggested just turning the forests into a golf course. Especially since he thinks the water would be “free”.
Do Republicans know the story about the king who had no clothes on? Do they understand what it is about and how it is a metaphor? Do they know the word metaphor? Who am I kidding…
Do Republicans know
No, they do not.
Quite to the contrary, they know that he’s naked, that’s the whole point. They get off on people pointing out that the emperor has no clothes, because they’ve built a shared identity around defending the emperor and his very stable genius choice to be naked.
They think that’s a story of inspiring a new fashion trend.
“Of course he’s naked! That’s why we love him, because he triggers the libs!”
But he hates the same people they do, which is the most important thing to them.
Time reported that disinfectant poisonings were up as much as 121% in April, 2020, right after their glorious leader mused about injecting disinfectants to cure COVID infection.
Brightly-lit bulbs they are not.
I suppose we should stop hurricanes by drying up the ocean… just install a drain, really horrible ocean management.
Or stop earthquakes by putting rubber feet under cities, very poor city design…
Just put big fans on the coast to blow them away.
yeah! back to Africa! we should only support locally sourced hurricanes.
No, you stop hurricanes with nukes.
