Trump has no class.
Before anyone says “what does this have to do with Trump?” - This is an event hosted by Trump for his birthday using tax payer money. Admonish the fighter all you wamt but this is an environment fostered by Trump. As stated in a comment above, the fighter was probably paid to say that, with Trump in the audience, on his birthday. Probably paid him in Trump coin or something.
This is an event hosted by Trump for his birthday using tax payer money.
I still can’t fucking believe that’s legal. How is it that he gets to spend $60 million on turning the White House into white-trash trailer-park ghetto cage match on the tax payer dime.
The US 1% finally went mask off and don’t care what the general public thinks of them now. Trump was the permission structure that allowed it.
Uh, wait for autonomous crowd control before it gets really mask off. Then those people fighting in cages will not do it voluntarily anymore and certainly not getting paid.
Too right
Trump was elected because of the permission structure.
No functioning republic would allow him past the primary. This is one of the unintended (joke) side effects of Citizens United and Super PACs, it just took a few years and billionaires are sharing the stage with Presidential victors, laughing. There’s a huge amount of money behind him, and he got more “free” press than anybody ever.
Because it’s not legal, but it’s an oligarch take over so he’s getting away with it along with a many other things.
It’s not legal, but since we are ignoring subpoenas now it’s fine.
who knew the secret? Just don’t go
The US government has been too unrestrained for generations and it’s only getting worse regardless of who is in power. The people aren’t ready to do anything about it yet either.
The people aren’t ready to do anything about it yet either.
It’s kinda baffling. A country with a violent gun culture obsessed with rising up against any totalitarian government… And yet all of it is just a lie funded by the military industrial complex.
I don’t see how any citizen with a gun stands a chance against drone strikes and SWAT teams. The best leverage American workers have over the rich is the same as everywhere else in the world:
- Stop going to work.
- Peacefully disobey the authorities.
- Don’t believe the narrative and create art.
- Form strong local communities and alternative economies.
My 2c anyway.
Any rule (legal, moral, social) is only ever worth as much as its enforcement. Beyond that, it’s a mere suggestion. If people obey him, whether his commands are legal is academical. They certainly are effective.
The whole government is occupied. There are not enough sane people left in this administration to do anything.
Disobedience takes a lot of courage. Unfortunately, that seems to be in short supply right now.
What is this clown show timeline
Proving they’re trolls.
Then they’re upset that nobody agrees with them “mma is an art”. Just complete losers.
“Are you offended by this? Are you offended by this? You have TDS!” (Obama living rent free in their heads.)
Did he earn some extra Trump Coin for saying that on camera? I bet he did.
trump sure drags a lot of sludge around with him. He can have as many sycophants parroting him as he likes but we all know, deep down, that he knows he ain’t above us, he’s beneath us.
the obamas and trans people both living rent free in their otherwise empty heads
Has anyone checked to see if this POS put a bet on Polymarket to the effect of “one of the fighters will say Michelle Obama is a man”?
For the record, I hate this timeline. At least Idiocracy had some charm.
This really is disgusting and goes back to a general question for all Americans. Around the world politicians and celebrities by and large strive to represent the best of the nation they are from regardless of where on the political spectrum they lean.
Do you feel this best represents you as an American? When you want the world to think of America do you want them to think “they think black people are apes and black women look like men”? Does a man say “Grab women by the pussy” and that’s a valid opinion? Is it acceptable for men to rape children?
You don’t need to answer. It’s rhetorical. You all made your choice it is what you think.
If you voted for him or didn’t vote, or voted Republicans in general, listen to Rogan, watch UFC, etc. Get your shit together. We are all laughing at you not with you.
You all made your choice it is what you think.
No, we fucking didn’t.
Sometimes the absolutism on Lemmy is exhausting. You’re 100% right.
Ugh can you just stop it already. They’re mostly right.
It’s almost like you are purposely trying to negate gerrymandering and the many reasons why people don’t/can’t vote which does not mean they support or agree with something. The world and choices are grey. Always has been. So, can you, and others, stop with the black and white camps you paint the world (or the US) in?
Less than half of the population got Trump elected.
Less than a third, actually. There are ~244m eligible voters and ~77m Trump ballots in the popular vote. I voted for Harris and my state went blue, but the armchair revolutionists are going to keep telling me to do “something” about it like I swore him in personally. Dummies gonna dum.
You’re correct. I didn’t want to get that specific, but it’s an even better point than the less than half that I said. I also voted for Harris and have been part of groups that combat ICE and help those in need locally.
It’s always amazing to see who the folks responsible for this naked fascist media are. 9/10 times it ends up being some random assholes with no economic or political clout in a third rate social media comments section.
Then fix it.
Go get shot by the Secret Service and leave your family without a home.
I’ll get right on that
The bend over and accept it? You see the problem? If you’re actively part of the solution what does that make you?
Sleep walking into Nazi Germany, American edition.
You’re a plane ticket away from doing the “something” you keep crying online about us not doing. What’s stopping you?
Because this is your mess not mine. Your answer speaks volumes. Reap what you sowed.
I didn’t.
What obviously instantly gets me about the “grab em by the pussy” is this and other brags is not just “locker talk”…he’s literally admitting and bragging about sexually assaulting women. “When you’re a star they let you do it”… Like i guess im preaching to the choir but to me is super easy to draw the line at someone overtly proud of sexually assaulting women.
I’m listening to alot of Norm Macdonald and a popular joke is about Bill Cosby being a hypocrite and how most rapists are hypocrite…Meanwhile we have a president who’s literally open about his abuse of women and thats not a dealbreaker for Christians - he’s actually sent by god somehow.
That line is what immediately turned me off of Trump and the vast majority of Americans. The fact that didn’t bury his political career speaks volumes on the nation the level of acceptance of that type of behaviour.
Politics aside, that is a disgusting human being to be able to say that like it’s cool, lockeroom or not. Yet here we are.
RIP Joan Rivers
Man, the Idiocracy writers really gave up after the first one
the idiots in idiocracy are innocent and a bit endearing.
these idiots are s tier arse holes.
They are cluster B monsters
These idiots aren’t plain idiots. They’re the sociopaths, psychopaths, and pedophiles of society, who naturally gravitate towards the authoritarianism/fascism of white nationalist religious extremism.
They’re the domestic enemies the cops and military were supposed to fight against, but didn’t because they’re also filled with sociopaths and psychopaths who naturally gravitate towards fascism, lol.
Scum of the earth
Yeah more like Don’t Look Up
It was supposed to be a comedy
The satire to prophecy to documentary-in-progress pipeline is real.
It’s horror the first time. Comedy on re-watch.
Mike Judge never thought he was making a documentary and not a parody.
Lifetime of getting kicks to the head will make you think like this.
Its okay cause she is black and rascism is the official policy of the US government apparently.
Always was.
People really need to start adding “overt”, “unfettered”, “rampant” or “criminally insane” before “racism”, as qualifiers to this take.
Always was
Always has been.
also mysogyny.
Hilarious that Bud Light is a sponsor after MAGA canceled them. Everyone involved is a degenerate.
It’s almost like these beer companies don’t give a fuck about humanity and just want to poison us for profit.
The companies obviously are after profits, but it is that this White House started a war against it and now accepts sponsorship.
It shows that all this outrage is just nothing more than a spectacle to control the base.
Kinda fancy a beer now
Like most companies.
Budweiser? You mean that shit ass beer brand that screwed over the LGBTQ+ personality that they hired to sell their crap ass beer?
I wouldn’t drink their fucking piss water if you paid me.
Well they kind of have to since Americans are the only people that will drink that stuff.
the biggest drunks are conservatives.
How would you even apply satire to this caricature of a man?
Have him say something intelligent
I think about this often. The Onion can’t hit it anymore, and all they’d need to do would be to write stories about Trump donating to children or reading books to elderly or basically anything make a wish foundation or your local superhero teacher does. Or, just copy anything that he’s actually doing, but since it’s the onion, people would be shook to anger by reality but laugh at the cleverness and saddened by the pain.
The trouble is, it isn’t symmetric that way. MAGA hypocrites would simply gleefully shout it from the rooftops as fact and it would end up being a propaganda coup in their favor, satire be damned.
See also: the bullshit asymmetry principle, The Card Says “Moops”, that quote by Jean-Paul Sartre, etc.
How about this:
Trump jumps into UFC ring, reveals he was faking his old and ugly the whole time
President Trump surprised voters on Sunday by stepping into the Whitehouse UFC ring and challenging Joe Rogan to a kickboxing match. Rogan at first refused to fight, citing concerns about the president’s poor health, flabby physique, and deteriorating cognitive ability.
In response, Trump tore off his wrinkled, orange-stained face to reveal it was a mask the whole time. He then released hidden buckles at his shoulders, allowing the fatsuit he had been wearing for the last three electoral cycles to fall to the ground. The POTUS then yelled to the assembled crowds, “The people, they love a heel, eh? But let’s set aside the act for today, because I’m feeling ready to rumble.”
Trump, now revealed to be an athletic 30-year-old, then backflipped behind Rogan and suplexed him, while singing the Star Spangled Banner at the top of his lungs. He then challenged the crowd, but no members of the electorate were foolish enough to answer him. Sighing, the president put his fatsuit and mask back on, and slowly waddled back inside the white house while audibly shitting his pants.
Lmfaooooooooo YESSSSSSS
They could have him read to children at a drag book reading.
That’s Babylon Bee-style humor, that is, ideology dressed up as humor. It’s “funny,” but doesn’t make you actually laugh.
Yeah I was thinking about that. The Onion would say “Trump saves puppy” and magas would just believe it…
So no only is it not symmetric because of the bullshit-proof rule or the confirmation biases… But these people are not normal. They’re some of the dumbest and most belligerent people in existence. Literally, a special breed of stupid.
what is this “Michelle Obama is a man” obsession?
MAGAs want her to peg them.
Or suck her cock
Remember that the GOP and its base are so incredibly racist, that the fact we ever had a black president is quite literally traumatic to these buffoons.
They quite literally still cry about it and shake in fear every day, especially knowing it could theoretically happen again.
The real question is how are there still so many dipshits in America who aren’t MAGA but still can’t see its 10000000% a white supremacist movement.
They have to add on that obviously Obama was not just black, and not just half black and half white, but he was also a foreigner, he was also Islamic, he was also married to a trans woman, that his kids were manchurian candidates specially trained by some sort of secret three-letter government agency in another country to destroy America and he was also some secret agent…
The stories they have made up about Obama elevate him far beyond the level of mythical. Their brains simply will not accept that he simply won the vote.
They have to wrap so many levels on top of it. It must have been a conspiracy. Otherwise, how could a black man have become president?
When you say, hey, you know, maybe it’s a little racist to think this way. They go, oh, I’m not fucking racist. The guy works for the devil, that’s all.
That fuse in their brain has been permanently short-circuited.
I know it’s kind of sad, but I feel like a lot of these people would be more mentally healthy if they would just go ahead and admit that deep down in their hearts of hearts, they “can’t believe a n-word was president”.
They want to say it with all of their soul, but their puritanical American self-repression is what’s got them trapped.
They want to say they’re not racist while hating black people with a deeply fundamental part of their spiritual makeup.
I’m sure they even see the craziness that the Orange Cheeto has been pulling and are deeply ashamed of it.
But because they can’t come out to themselves and admit that they are racist, they hate black people. They want black people to be underneath them so they can feel better about themselves, they are venting that energy in wild and uncontrolled ways, and very intelligent people in the GOP are taking advantage of that.
Admitting that they are racist is part of the solution.
They could cure that racism afterwards, but first you have to admit that you have a problem.
They’re claiming Michelle is a trans woman actually. I don’t care enough about their delusions to figure out how they think the kids happened
Fixed, thank you.
HEY! Only I’m allowed to talk about my mom that way, buddy. Even if it’s all true.
they had the same problem with Brigitte Macron nô?
Think they did yeah.
You could just attack her for being a creep who groomed someone 20 years younger into a relationship?
It’s not just Michelle. This is a very common racist meme against black women in general. It’s widespread among fascists, etc.
Ever notice that most of MAGA’s material was cribbed from the liberal side? There was a running joke 15-20 years ago about Ann Coulter being a trans woman, due to her prominent Adam’s apple. They applied the “I’m rubber you’re glue” rule, and have been trying to make this a thing since then. As usual, they’ve missed what made the joke funny, as cringe as it was.
Ann Coulter has an adam’s apple? I missed all of that. Ben Shapiro is a trans man by the way, it’s true.
sorry, who? never heard of him.
He’s a fascist influencer/interneter. Very anti trans and all that, very pro israel. Anti anything left or woke, pro president. He’s a piece of fucking shit.
sorry i was just negging him.
the worst thing you can say about these people is that you have no idea who they are.
Ha ha, I actually don’t know who most of them are. I had no idea who Charlie Kirk was before South Park had Cartman be him that episode just a bit before kirk gave that full throated performance in Utah. I do happen to know Shapiro because of his Israel bullshit though.

the worst thing you can say about these people is that you have no idea who they are.
Everybody has the same anatomy in the neck, yeah, so I don’t know if culturally you’d call it an Adam’s apple on a woman, but hers is somewhat visible.
Confidently incorrect.
I do know what it’s called when the larynx is prominent on a woman’s neck? (Might have to gimme a lil’ hint.)
As a rarity, woman don’t have adam’s apples generally, just as woman don’t have testicles and dicks, although a few do.
unless they take lots of roids.
If women don’t have larynxes, how do they speak?
“When someone tells you who they are, believe them.”
Why do you think they’re so obsessed with who can use which restroom, obsessed with who may or may not be a man or woman, make posts about getting married or engaged during pride month, etc, etc, etc it’s because they’re all collectively jealous of the LGBTQ+ community and in many cases are closeted homosexuals/transgender. Which is an insult to the LGBTQ+ community and does them a disservice. They want that life so desperately but are terrified that everyone in their circle will ridicule them for it meanwhile those in said circle also want the same thing.
I would say it’s their upbringing. They were told that gay people will go to hell and that gay people will all get AIDS and have horrible diseases and will suffer and everybody will hate them for being gay and that it’s bad to be gay, or LGBT+ in any way.
Therefore, if you’re LGBT+, you’re a bad person.
And whatever horrible things happen to bad people is perfectly okay. It is their just desserts.
They have been programmed to treat LGBT+ people the same way they treat pedophiles.
Laugh at them and cheer when they die, pray for their death, keep your family and children away from them, physically attack them if they get near you, prevent them from getting jobs, make them feel unwelcome everywhere they go.
And because, at a fundamental level of their own hearts, they have designated LGBT+ people as bad people, they are perfectly okay with this.
The only real cure for it is to change how they see those people.
She’s more of a man than they are, and more of a woman than they’ll ever have.
She’s a powerful black woman whom they dislike and so a lot of them have convinced themselves she’s trans to make her even worse in their eyes and to try to convince others she (and her husband) are bad.
The sheer right wing derangement over the Obamas is fucking nuts
Pretty sure it has something to do with Grindr popping off every time there’s a conservative event.
I first read about it, then finally watched the video.
The way he says this sounds comically feminine, it is only missing a little girl giggle at the end.
they also called her gorilla, and claim shes a man of the relationship.
Obama Derangement Syndrome
