Boy, Biden really lives rent-free in Trump's head.

Most people, if they even thought of putting something like that up, would be worried that they would be branding themselves as a desperate loser.

    Dude was shot at, and has more hatred for Rosie O'Donnell. I've literally never heard him mention the shooter.

    Donald Trump, to me at least, seems like a very simple person. I have found that I can predict a lot of what he'll do by just keeping in mind that he's an egotistical simpleton who wants people to worship him. He doesn't care about anybody but himself, and he doesn't think very far into the future. But he gets hung up on the past a lot.

    Biden beat him. There was a popularity contest, and America picked Biden. Biden has never lost to Trump, except one debate that most people forgot about already. That's something that Trump will never be able to change.

    Trump probably thinks of the shooter as a loser who couldn't even hit what he was aiming at. If anything, the shooting made Trump more popular. Trump won and the shooter lost.

    Here's another thing about Trump.

    Trump was in New York real estate and construction from the start. There's no way to do that without dealing with the Mafia.

    Any smart boss is going to take one look at Donnie and step away. A boss doesn't want to be around a loudmouth who can't be trusted to keep his mouth shut.

    So the mobsters Donnie interacted with were the low level goons the bosses could throw under the bus if anything went wrong.

    All of Donnie's schemes are crude because that's what he thinks are clever schemes. His smartest mentor, Roy Cohn, died too soon to teach Donnie how to actually act like a winner.

    Cohn also probably couldn't and wouldn't. Cohn was great at what he did, he died deeply in debt to the federal government just like he wanted. But Cohn had intelligence that while subservient to the myriad chips on his shoulder, was real. Cohn could actually play people off each other and make people who hated him like him. And most of all Cohn could resist the urge to be in the spotlight if he even felt it at all. He had the cunning you only get when you have had to hide. And that's how he was able to get what may very well be the closest person he ever had to a real romantic partner, Joe McCarthy, to be the face of the red and lavender scares and then to take the fall when the backlash came.

    You can't make a rich, privileged in every way, golden boy narcissist into Roy Cohn. Roy Cohn had distress tolerance and could use it when he needed to.

    His Afghanistan Disaster.. was among the most humiliating events in American History, and resulted in the murder of 13 brave American Servicemembers

    13 American soldiers have have died in the totally well thought out, well executed, well justified Iran war, too. Kind of ironic if you ask me

    Or more directly... you could just point to the Doha accord, AKA that time the Trump administration made a deal with the Taliban that put a date (and other stipulations) on troop withdrawal. Projection, just like with those nicknames.

  • He won't admit he ever lost to Biden, just that it was all rigged and Biden cheated. He just cannot fathom that a (half) black man became president, especially since Obama dunked on him HARD during a correspondents dinner and hurt his precious fragile showflake feefees

    Yeah I had to go and check because it seemed so absurd, petty and full of lies. I shouldn't be too surprised though. That is how I'd characterize the whole presidency.

    I mean, the 90s were kind of nice in the USA. There was a real optimism for the future. We were gonna solve racism, we were gonna democratize information, we were going to judge everyone on the content of their character. Technology was always going to improve. We were gonna cure cancer, for God's sake.

    Then Social Media happened in the 2000s. So much for that...

    Laughs in literalist:

    so there’s a line that’s defines “significant?”

    Really bad, but the difference is the volume and scale. US government oppressing ethnic minorities is a horrible act, but not a new one. US government deliberately oppressing a large fraction of the majority is.

    Doesn't make it better or worse, but it is a marked shift

    right. thats my point. there isn’t a scale such as a binary, thus it has never been a “good” (as in healthy) nation, in its black and white (again a binary) form.

    i’m just trying to push a rhetoric that stops folks from pining for day bygone that were better. they have never been better, just different

    contrasting two tail ends of a continuous spectrum still points to a shift, and the availability to place a wide threshold between them does imply a certain level of robustness when used as a binary classification

    Waiting to see all of this garbage torn down and people prosecuted or at least the history books written about what is going on right now is a surprisingly strong motivating factor for continuing to live through this dystopia.

    These things shouldn't be torn down. Relocated, sure, but Americans need to remember what they're capable of. Maybe put them in some kind of Smithsonian Museum of American Failure, along with all that Confederate statue spam.

    The problem with that is the eventually washing of history. Plenty of people, e.i. dumb shits, go to places pointing out how terrible slavery was and how the south was bad then think, "Gee, those sure was betta times. Derr."

    Had to Google what they actually say about Trump Obama and Biden. This article made it sound slightly biased plus the petty ”Sleepy Joe” part. The plaques are in fact hilarious, on par with a Trump tweet in their tone, entirely biased, mostly fictional. This to me is one of the top pettiest things he has done, since it’s a plaque in an official government building.

    Edit: actually checked the one about Obama
