I think it was the black guy more than the tan suit that they took exception to.

Oh, and EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN

Obama was not just a black president, but a well-spoken, intelligent, knowledgeable black president who navigated the US out of the subprime mortgage crisis and won a second term despite all efforts by the GOP to wreck his chances.

Granted, he still abused the disposition matrix, failed at his promise of executive transparency, ratcheted up surveillance of Americans to eleven and stuck to neoliberal policies which still pulled wealth up from the working class to the ownership class, but the conservatives and Republicans had no complaint about any of this. These grievances came from the left.

But how dare he be a black man, and far more competent than Bush!? (Curiously, he got a Nobel Peace Prize just for not being Bush. Even Obama was surprised and admitted he hoped to earn it during his tenure.)

There were not serious about it. They were paid to say this bullshit. They all new it's stupid but the base was dumb enough to buy it.

At best they were "serious" about it

Yeah let's leave it up and use it for advertising. Nothing says sophistication more than an ad of Goya Beans in front of your house.

Idiocracy was a cautionary tale not a how-to guide.

Yeah and those several times Obama shit his pants on camera. Oh, right, that's President Dump.

I really just can't take people who support this seriously anymore. Either admit you got conned or you're a big ol jerk who's profiting from the destruction of America, which one? You haven't "owned the libs" or anything, you just made yourselves look like the biggest dupes ever.

I’m tired, boss.

Right, but this is what plants crave.

Most of them weren't serious about it. They spent 8 years bitching that extra amount because the President was black.

Not people

Paid pundits who's sole job it was to keep the US population distracted over dumb shit while real shit was happening

This has been a thing in the US for what, decades, now? It's pretty much the sole reasons for Fox News existence, to distract people with bullshit so that the billionaire thugs can rob the coffers dry

He's literally only saying this as a distraction. From the Epstein files and now Iran (which was originally a small distraction from the Epstein files).

THAT'S CRAZY! WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES?

Shit at least he didnt express a preference for Dijon mustard. Because that would be clfucked up.

No. US media was talking about it as they pushed narrative. Americans, who live and die by their social and news media feeds, then started copying that, as usual.

They don't think for themselves, they just follow their feeds and timelines. If their feed stops talking about Epstein, so do they. If their feed starts talking about Iran, so do they. Literally that's all that happened with the tan suit and why the ballroom is nothing.

Hell, scroll through Lemmy's 'Hot' and 'New' feeds while the US is active if you need to see it in action.

Lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣
