    Trump apparently gives people shoes in the size he THINKS they are, and throws a tantrum if they're not wearing them. Gifts in this style are a common narcissist power play.

    Ohh yah I remember when this came out, didn’t the whole cabinet get new shoes and no one was asked what their shoe size was? Agreed lol, classic narcissistic behavior

    If you view trump as a walking loyalty test, everything starts to make sense.

    Yah but hummm…so you think was really a test? Walk in oversized shoes to test your loyalty to the administration like some bizarre initiation ritual? I just think these people are fucking idiots lol.

    Seems like it wouldn’t be hard to exchange them or just buy a pair in the same brand that fits, but I’m glad it doesn’t occur to them.

    The full story of the two failed terms of donnie are going to need to have many pages to really give it the proper attention it needs.

    The shit he's been doing (so far) in this second term has just been so wild. I mean, buying shoes for other men, what even the fuck.

    And now he's going bonkers over the badonkadonks of other men...

    And then on the home stretch of the midterm campaigns, he goes out to the reflecting pool and starts bragging about something that he so obviously fucked up.

    I can explain the ass talk. Trump always tries to be cute near election time so he appears less scary and gets media attention. Like in 2020 when he did the YMCA fist pumps (which is gay coded btw) or in 2024 when he went to McDonalds or now when he AND JD were saying a bunch of gay shit.

    Go ahead. Your career is over either way. Might as well get a head start on your memoirs or whatever these slobs do.

    Looking at it analytically: It’s probably republicans “best shot” at keeping 2028 but I think everyone on that party and admin know it’s a lame duck + uphill battle. Don’t waste a promising candidate now. Rebuild and come back later.

    My personal opinion is this is awesome. If Rubio is the best they can do we’re in for another blue bloodbath. It’s also an indictment on how much everyone is done with this shit.

    I kinda don't understand this one.

    Rubio hasn't been directly involved with the worse disaster, Iran, and was seemingly positioning himself to be Viceroy of South America and the Carribean, which certainly doesn't bother Republicans. He is adhering to the traditional US policy of regime-change following the CIA playbook; he doesn't have the staggering improvisational incompetence of Hegseth. He really hasn't done anything "wrong" relative to the rest of this abberant administration; heck, he doesn't even seem that pro-Israel and was the first public official to implicate Israel as the tail wagging the dog in Iran. Maybe that's why they want to get rid of him?

    He has been all in on trump, to the point of nausea. His ICE views are horrific. I think this last election has proven that r's need a new set of people behind them. Rubio sucks ass.

    To a Republican that just shows you're a good businessman. Rick Scott committed the largest Medicare fraud in history, it was public knowledge, and then he got elected governor of Florida. Now he's a senator. It's like a precondition to run for office as a Republican you need to be a criminal

    I don’t know, pretty sure he had a hand in the indiscriminate destruction/drone striking of all those “drug smuggling” vessels in the Caribbean. Pretty sure there was another one today.

    Agreed, but Hegseth was more directly in charge of those, (reportedly ordering a double-tap to kill survivors--civil suit coming to a court near you) and, again, this isn't about Rule of Law but embarassing the regime--and killing civilans in SA is nothing out of the ordinary for the US.

    Yah agree, but you don’t get to be called the self proclaimed czar of the Caribbean or whatever dumb name was given, was it vice roy maybe?) without giving some direction here, even as sec of state…hegseth was likely following orders from???

    Conservatives are definitely beating the drum for Rubio now that they can see that Vance is going down with the ship. He's been a favorite to run in 2028 for a little while now.

    lol they're going to find someone to be the fall guy and they dont' care who it is, or how justified. or even justified at all. it should be nauseatingly apparent by now that trump can point his geriatric finger at anyone and say "______ is his/her fault," and now that person is the new RINO/traitor/satan, and it doesn't matter what anyone says-- that person is done for

    I don’t know who is going to be satisfied by this burnt offering.

    maga will, 100%

    also, just to be clear: fuck rubio. if he's suffering, then i'm glad

    Just resignation? If he wants any redemption, he'll need to go much further than that.

    Conservatives are biologically unable to experience shame, so we know he will never do the right thing and get off our planet.

    Ach, wee Marco, is he truly presidential material?

    I remember when all the "serious" pundits in the Murc's Law media were insistent Jeb was gonna win the 2016 primaries...and then the completely unqualified and inexperienced donnie won, so who the fuck knows who the absolutely brainless among us will end up choosing for their R candidate...I mean, at least Marco has experience and he's not nearly as stupid as donnie. He's a total neocon so the people on the right that supposedly profess to be against wars are going to have to square that circle.

    Not that the right wing are even the least bit coherent, beyond coddling the rich and racism, xenophobia, misogyny, etc.

    How in the world has Rubio been "the only adult in the room"? You cannot be for real right now.

    I guess y'all are already trying to launder his image? Are those the new marching orders? Launder Rubio's name and try to distance him from the literal war crimes that he ordered and/or oversaw?

    He's one of the few "defeat realists" regarding Iran war, and only reliable 2nd vote for 25th amendment. Impossible to get a Zionazi crony to be the next consecutive Zionazxi secretary of state approved by Senate. But its good for Cuba/Venezuela, which seems like his only job.
