I’m still a fan of when he showed a map to kid Rock and kid Rock literally was like ‘should I be seeing this?’

Trump literally turned kid Rock into the voice of reason at one point.

Loose lips sink ships, or something. There were times when people who did that got a cigarette, a blindfold, and a lonely place next to a bullet-ridden wall.

Trump is ready to leak anything to win browny point with millionaires and billionaires. Would also probably sell he’s two sons, but nobody wants them. ‘Only he matters’, like he once elegantly put.

Russian navy just fled their main Crimean base of operations. Sinking ships was exactly his goal.

If he could be found guilty of a serious crime before the first GOP primary, that would be super helpful. Can we get this done?

It actually wouldn’t be the first time we’ve had somebody running for President from prison. Eugene Debbs ran for President from a federal prison cell in the 1920 election. He also promised to pardon himself if he was elected.

the results are not important to these people anyway. the election is null and void as far as they are concerned unless trump wins. so makes no difference trying to pander to fascists. punch them in the face and deplatform them.

Facts. These people will openly say no amount of evidence would ever convince them 2020 was not rigged.

If convicted of any of the numerous crimes he’s charged with, this man and his co-conspirators represent a palpable danger to democracy and should never be able to get near the levers of power again.

As it stands, the public should recognize the danger he and his ilk have already demonstrated on the world and domestic stage and relegate them to a bad memory.

What does it take for this orange ape to finally go down into the darkest hell hole of oblivion? God knows what other highly sensitive information this senile blabbermouth has shared with far more dangerous people. To me it is absolutely unfathomable that this man is still walking around, free as a bird, with millions of people still rooting for him.

Probably not treason, as running his mouth to an Australian national isn’t really providing aid to the US’s enemies (I don’t think we’ve signed a mutual defense pact with Emus, yet). However, running your mouth and disclosing Classified information, is a crime. Funny how I remember a bunch of people chanting something about locking someone up over mishandling of sensitive government information a few years back. Might be time for a few rounds of “lock him up!”

Create post

A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

  • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

    • Post news articles only
    • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    • Title must match the article headline
    • Not United States Internal News
    • Recent (Past 30 Days)
    • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
  • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

  • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

  • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

  • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

  • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

  • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
