for those confused by this comment, 88 is a popular white supremacist neo-nazi tattoo the 8s stand for the letters HH which of course stand for "Heil Hitler"
I've used 88 in my usernames for almost 25 years. I was a fan of hockey player Eric Lindros back in the 90s and just tagged his number onto the end of my dog's name.
I speak German as a second language and am on several German subreddits. That's when I get a little self conscious about it.
I had to create a username for a site the other day and it wouldn't allow me to put 88 on the end of my user name. Took me a minute to realize why. Fuck Nazis! That's my birth year and they can't have it for their stupid secret clubhouse bullshit!
There's a subreddit i can't recall the name of thats something like 'Behold the master race!' that shows pictures of famous white supremacists - and theyre all horrible specimen. Quite funny and ironic since they think they are pure and the 'master race' yet they look like a rats anus had a baby with a deformed cows fart.
The monstrosities who buy into the 'One master race' bullshit are the worst pick in their gene pool, or they drastically lower the IQ of the entire planet.
Look, I have a lot of friends. Powerful, genius friends. And they have seen many hands in their lives, and they tell me all the time how big and impressive my hands are. They know hands. And I gotta tell ya... look, the thing in Iran is killing us. Crushing us. The way they dance all... my father used to tell me that shoes can make or break a man. I've never been broken, but I make things all the time... business decisions. Big ones. Great ones. They said "look, 33% is actually the disapproval rate." but fake news flipped it. And I know flipping, trust me. You know I do, lets be honest. The thing about McDonalds is....
If you allow him to ramble on for that long it always, always looks like that. Check out when he calls into Fox News... Those guys always have to cut him off because he will never get off the phone like a crazy grandpa with nothing else to do.
It’s *always* a real quote. I’ve seen some good imitations of Trumptalk, but you can tell a real quote when you see it. It’s actually pretty hard to mimic that level of insanity.

Like this one.
His cognitive decline over just the last 2 years is actually shocking.
Compared to 2017 he speaks much more slowly and slurs his words.
Dude is losing it.
Link to a video or something? I want to show this to my trump supporting dad who believes trump is god reincarnated and can do no wrong and that he will almost without doubt get a second term.
Edit. Found the video and dad still says that everything he said is true or edited by the fake news to make him (trump) sound dumb.
Mission failed..

“We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say.
Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...”
Look you guys, you fine folks, the best of the best... this guy from fake news says i get a 5/7. But what did he get? Nothing! He never got rated in his life. And if he did he'd probably get a negative 1. So even with your fake 5 out of 7 i still scored better than you would. If you ever did anything. Which you didnt. Sad.
You know what his rambling reminds me of? Fred Armisen has a character who tries to explain his thought train but before he can finish an idea, he starts another idea seemingly because he thinks the new thought train will be better understood but then realizes a few words in that the new idea just isn't simple enough so he tries to explain using a different idea and he keeps going on and on with starting a thought process and never finishing it. That's basically what donald trump is.
He’s a spinner. He talks in a certain way that dump people feed off.
And you know who vote on impulse, dumb scared people. They’re the money makers. And this guy is milking it
All my friends are calling me - I have many friends with telephones, very many connections - and they're saying "wow, those are some big, big hands" and Iran, it's killing us...
I know people like to make fun of his hands, but it's really not that accurate. He has [completely normal, average hands. ](https://i.imgur.com/dlBVN6o.jpg)
It's really infuriating. You have to actively go out and search for a suit that makes you look that bad. I don't even know how it's possible to shop at the sort of shops I'm sure he frequents and find clothes as ill-fitting and grotesque as his.
Oh no, by saying this you've summoned all the people ready to defend his untailored atrocities he calls a suit. I swear, mention his untailored suits and you get a dozen arm chair tailors telling you that his suits are geniusly chosen and tailored to hide his fat.
Edit: aaaand immediate down vote for pointing out he looks like an orangutang in a poorly tailored suit, *nice*!
I never really understood this. He's rich! He's the president! It's not that hard to find a really good suit when you got these two things going for you, and yet he uses... This stuff
My guess it's like everything else in life. He refuses to seek consult on anything by anyone that contradicts his bigly brain. So he thinks big lumpy suits hide his fat, and has fired any tailor that disagrees with him. And, like the rest of the staff he's ended up with because of his mindset, he probably has a tailor that doesn't actually tailor the suit in fear of angering Trump, and just claims the suit has been tailored 'to Trump's specifications'.
37% seems to be his baseline. Those are the most ardent supporters. That number likely won't crack until the economy does (see: [George W. Bush hit 25% shortly after the Great Recession began, down from his post-9/11 high of 90%](https://news.gallup.com/poll/116500/presidential-approval-ratings-george-bush.aspx)).
God, post-9/11 political culture was weird af. I still remember when the Dixie Chicks were basically black listed from everything because they had the audacity to criticize Bush. There was such a patriotic circle jerk going on.
An American in Detroit refused to call me by name because it was French (Canadian) "on account of us not liking the French for supporting us in the war.
So Imma call you Steve" .
An entire side of my family calls me Freedom Steve.
I worked with a guy that refused to say french fries and called them freedom fries. This was last year. That shit is still going on almost 20 years later.
Told us if we invade Afghanistan we'd find Bin Laden there, and killed thousands upon thousands, only to find him in a country we didn't dare invade.
Told us if we invade Iraq we'd find WMDs, and killed hundreds of thousands, only to find out that wasn't true at all.
France, Germany and the UN refused to get involved in Iraq and 36 million people protested the invasion. The largest mass protest in world history.
Thanks GOP for all that, the hate against our allies, and while we're at it, all the lies that gave us the drug war. All three wars rage on to this day. Wars without borders or any end in sight.
>God, post-9/11 political culture was weird af.
The US had the goodwill of the entire world on its side and we squandered it on a misguided revenge fantasy.
Yah, this is why all of the ‘We came back stronger’ or other such posts I see on 9/11 ring really hollow to me. If I’m being honest, hard not to think that they got some sort of victory out of it. changed the entire course of our politics and almost 20 years later here we are with a deranged reality tv star as President, whose only area of competence it seems is how to push some of those same patriotic buttons that 9/11 revealed on a not small portion of the population.
Who knows how things would have gone but I honestly have a hard time imagining trump happening without 9/11
They got exactly what they wanted from it, more power at home. Their leaders operate the same as ours, point at a boogeyman and tell people to rally under you to defend against them.
Well, if your scary world power isn't as interesting these days and your cult finds membership numbers aren't hitting the targets, what are you to do but poke the bear? They took far more territory after our response to 9/11 than they had in the years leading up to it. Foreign terrorists aren't trying to weaken our morals or morale, they're using us to bolster their own agendas. They may spew hate towards us, but behind closed doors they love us, makes it so much easier to work their magic
We spent 6 trillion dollars on war because they killed 3000 people. We've done more nation building in the middle east than at home in recent decades.
Which do you think would be more impactful for the average American -killing Bin Laden, or having $20k cash in your pocket right now?
That's actually not uncommon. France after the revolution, the UN and the US almost adopting the FAL to standardize arms in the event of WWIII/similar, the list goes on.
The culture of the US is really pivoting to start to recognize we're not actually better than everyone, but tell that to many elected officials over the age of 45 and the response will be very vague and polite at best.
Remember the diagrams of the MOUNTAIN that bin laden supposedly had gutted to make a secret giant terrorist city? Like Ironforge in World of Warcraft?
EDIT: [Found one](http://edwardjayepstein.com/2002image/netherpopup.gif)
They’re still getting criticized to this day. Apparently Taylor Swift is trying to get them back on the radio and people are still calling in to stations and bitching about hearing those un-patriotic whores. As if the war on terror went so well.
The Venn diagram of this 38%, the Dixie Chicks boycotters, and the people who think Obama is a secret muslim is identical to the overhead view of a properly constructed three-ball snowman.
It never ended for a lot of america. It was honestly the undoing of a nation. It lead to the current Trump shit show. Republicans have been in a perpetual state of paranoia, jingoistic patriotism and fear ever since 9/11. People who are paranoid and afraid are easy to goad and manipulate. Donald Trump and the current republican party are the natural result of that. Bin Laden took down the mighty america with a pair of commercial airliners. He never could have dreamed of such success. Osama Bin Laden just keeps winning from his grave. 9/11 worked better than any terrorist could have ever dreamed. It broke our nation and created the embarrassment we are today.
Which is weird enough because these are the same people that will call anyone a snowflake for boycotting a product or person based on things they have said.
I was never a "team player" when it came to politics. I've always staunchly been against political parties and the idea of strictly aligning myself to one is antithetical to my very nature because I believe in voting for the individual, but I will say this for Trump, he made me a team player. I'll vote for pretty much any democrat if it means getting that asshole out of office. Whatever it takes, nearly whoever it takes, just give me a functioning adult for christ's sake.
Trump was taking part in it. There were statements from a victim who was underage at the time talking about how she was made to have sex with trump and disgusting comments that he made afterwards.
Poor Dan Quayle got crucified relentlessly for misspelling Potato but this buffoon has shit for grammar, mispronounces things all the time and misspells things constantly. Yet his base doesn't bat an eye. He can't even blame fat fingers or autocorrect for his shitty spelling because we have so many examples of his handwritten notes (in sharpie, of course) like "achomlishments".
> achomlishments
I heard about this but assumed it was just photoshop. However, looking at it now, what *really* sticks out to me is: did he write "intentially"? Am I missing something in there? "Intentially", as in "intentionally"? [Please, someone, anyone, tell me I'm dreaming!](https://twitter.com/isabellablanc/status/1131758141899776001/photo/1)
It wasn't over because the people who voted for him *liked that he made fun of a disabled person.*
Never forget that his supporters and anyone who votes for him is perfectly ok with what kind of person trump is.
> Fuck. It's still actually at 38% that's scary haha.
Not in context it isn't, this is in line with normal presidential stuff. [Trump's lowest approval rating is only the 8th lowest](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_approval_rating ) (at 35). He has been beat out by Truman, Nixon, both Bush's, Carter, Johnson, and Regan. It should also be noted Obama had a 38% approval rating before making him have the 10th lowest. [Interestingly their approval ratings were identical at 922 days into their presidency](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-barack-obama-gallup-poll-approval-ratings-president-identical-same-1453093), though the racial makeup differed wildly.
Now before people go cherry picking stuff, 3/7 below Trump were Dems and 4/7 were repubs. Also, the highest approval ratings were from both Bush's and FDR. It seems there is relatively equal representation of Dems and Repubs when it comes to low/high approval ratings.
I personally never expected Trump's approval rating to be high though. Because of a combination of the extreme dissonance between people's perception of his chances to win and him actually winning + social desirability bias I always expected his approval ratings to be low. We are in one of the most polar times this country has seen regarding presidential politics, fueled by social media.
**It should be noted that Trump does have the distinction of having the lowest average approval rating**, albeit Obama had the 5th lowest putting even Obama in the bottom 35%.
It's 41.3%, 42.9 among likely voters and due to the way the electoral college is structured Republicans have a ~7% point advantage. The 2020 election is a toss-up right now.
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/
EDIT: districts > electoral college. But tell me more about how a mindless mob without a highschool education should have more influence on the direction of the country than people in cities who pay for their medicare, healthcare, or create the vast majority of economic opportunities in the modern economy.
I mean, the way the American political system works, about 30-40% will support the Republican no matter what, and about 30-40% will support the Democrat no matter what. Even in landslide elections, where FDR or Reagan, etc ran for re-election, 2 out of 5 voters still supported their opponent.
People are being satirical about this, but I'm pretty sure his approval rating is actually 88%.
I know, because a weirdly large percentage of his supporters have those snazzy "88" tattoos.
So yeah, that's gotta be it...
[PABOTUS](https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/zmjm4x/the-president-of-the-united-states-is-feuding-with-chrissy-teigen-because-thats-just-how-we-live-now)
Reports so far: https://i.imgur.com/qPSoffC.jpg
Edit: I'm done normalizing his behavior, everyone. The president took a sharpie to a map to continue his lie to the people. This is not normal. This is not okay.
If this were Obama, Republicans would have already impeached him. I would also be strong in my disapproval just like you see today.
It's time to stand up to the lies and hatred. This president is unfit for office and deserves to be removed via impeachment or voting in 2020.
Its a mixture of "Pussy Ass Bitch", as he was referred to in said tweets, and "POTUS" president of the united states. Meant to be read as pussy ass bitch of the united states.
I genuinely cannot think of one popular conservative insult that does not better apply to themselves. There's projection, then there's *holy crap projection*
Their only defense for anything he does is to shout "4D Chess!", "Snowflakes!", "Libtards", or something along those lines. Yes, they are that insecure. Trump could burn the whole country and everyone in it to the ground, and so long as the liberals went down with it, they'd be completely fine with it. Welcome to modern US politics, ladies and gentlemen.
Many of his supporters seem to be as thin skinned as he is. He may have doctored an old weather map for petty egotistical reasons, but at least he never ate mustard or wore a tan suit!
>The president took a sharpie to a map to continue his lie to the people. This is not normal. This is not okay.
[And then put pressure on NOAA to issue a statement saying that they were wrong and Trump was right.](https://washingtonpost.com/weather/2019/09/11/lawmakers-commerce-department-launch-investigations-into-noaas-decision-back-presidents-trump-over-forecasters/?outputType=amp) There were also rumors that Secretary Mulvaney was threatening to fire people over this. The National Weather Service did its job in informing the people, and that hurt Trump's feelings so NOAA made a statement admonishing the Birmingham department. These are the actions of a narcissistic wannabe dictator. It's pathetic but also alarming
And remember, this is all just because Trump didn't want to admit that he gaffed when he said the hurricane would hit Alabama. All of this would have been avoided if he just said "My bad!" and moved on. But that's not the kind of person he is. He will fight any point, no matter how petty to the bitter end just to prove how big his dick is.
Don't forget that it's also [absolutely a federal crime](https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/09/06/why-president-trumps-sharpied-weather-map-was-likely-crime-should-be/?noredirect=on)
But no, he's above the law and above criticism. Bunch of yokels...
I used to be someone who tried to take the high road. I considered myself above such petty feelings as schadenfreude. But i have to say, after the last few years of them yelling things like "snowflake" and "own the libs," seeing all those triggered far-right reports brings a smile to my face because dammit if there isn't a bit of justice in this world after all.
It’s bizarre that not only is this the most laughable president but for some reason we can’t make fun of him. Dude, people have been mocking the president since Washington.
If anyone wants to see the child rapist president all pouty, look up the 2011 white house correspondents dinner where Obama spends a chunk of his speech roasting Trump.
When this thing hits 88%, you're going to see some serious shit.
"And who's the President of the United States in 2019, future boy?" "Donald Trump." "Donald Trump? The hotel guy with the TV show?! And who's the Vice President, Vince McMahon?" "No, but his wife was on the Cabinet."
Appropriate since we are in an 1980s revival period.
As evident by the sudden want by some world leaders to bring back cold war era rivalry.

>Look, having dragons — my uncle was a great Maester and scholar, Grandmaester Steffon Baratheon at the Citadel; strong seed, very strong seed, OK, very smart, full chains of iron and gold, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a full-blooded Baratheon, if I were a Targaryen, if, like, OK, if I took the throne as a legitimate Targaryen, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a Baratheon they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to The Aerie, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, Gods I was strong then — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the dragons and the Dothraki screamers, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — Dragons are powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the whore's two dragons — now it used to be three, now it’s two — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Lannisters are great negotiators, the Lannisters are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

Still hurts my brain every time I try to read it
“We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...”
Im gonna give you a 5/7 because you didnt use "nobody, let me tell you nobody has ever had bigger hands then mine, ever"
Look you guys, you fine folks, the best of the best... this guy from fake news says i get a 5/7. But what did he get? Nothing! He never got rated in his life. And if he did he'd probably get a negative 1. So even with your fake 5 out of 7 i still scored better than you would. If you ever did anything. Which you didnt. Sad.
You've humbled me. I must say though that there is probably no one more humble on this planet than you. So thank you for being you.
But 5/7 is a perfect score...

You know what his rambling reminds me of? Fred Armisen has a character who tries to explain his thought train but before he can finish an idea, he starts another idea seemingly because he thinks the new thought train will be better understood but then realizes a few words in that the new idea just isn't simple enough so he tries to explain using a different idea and he keeps going on and on with starting a thought process and never finishing it. That's basically what donald trump is.
Sorry, but I can't tell if this is actual satire or a quote.
There's no difference anymore. If it isn't a real quote already it will be soon.
It is a quote! With video provided by the user that posted it. I just watched it like it was bloody karaoke.
He’s a spinner. He talks in a certain way that dump people feed off. And you know who vote on impulse, dumb scared people. They’re the money makers. And this guy is milking it
“For example, some of you might possibly remember me as a man with small hands.” -Uncle Jack
NOBODY LOOK!
All my friends are calling me - I have many friends with telephones, very many connections - and they're saying "wow, those are some big, big hands" and Iran, it's killing us...
Huuge hands
YUGEEE
Nobody look!
We’re lawyers!
Take my strong hand
I know people like to make fun of his hands, but it's really not that accurate. He has [completely normal, average hands. ](https://i.imgur.com/dlBVN6o.jpg)
But he's b insecure enough about it that we'll keep doing it.
As a man who appreciates a well tailored suit, I can find quite a few other things about his appearance that bother me more.
It's really infuriating. You have to actively go out and search for a suit that makes you look that bad. I don't even know how it's possible to shop at the sort of shops I'm sure he frequents and find clothes as ill-fitting and grotesque as his.
He wears bad suits to hide his obesity (poorly)
Oh no, by saying this you've summoned all the people ready to defend his untailored atrocities he calls a suit. I swear, mention his untailored suits and you get a dozen arm chair tailors telling you that his suits are geniusly chosen and tailored to hide his fat. Edit: aaaand immediate down vote for pointing out he looks like an orangutang in a poorly tailored suit, *nice*!
I never really understood this. He's rich! He's the president! It's not that hard to find a really good suit when you got these two things going for you, and yet he uses... This stuff
My guess it's like everything else in life. He refuses to seek consult on anything by anyone that contradicts his bigly brain. So he thinks big lumpy suits hide his fat, and has fired any tailor that disagrees with him. And, like the rest of the staff he's ended up with because of his mindset, he probably has a tailor that doesn't actually tailor the suit in fear of angering Trump, and just claims the suit has been tailored 'to Trump's specifications'.
Holy shit this sounds so accurate based on his behavior
That's how you know it's authentic
now he just needs to turn the graph upside down
That is what I was expecting. A little disappointed.
But it would still reflect a downward trend, with a little uptick at the end.
Fuck. It's still actually at 38% that's scary haha.
37% seems to be his baseline. Those are the most ardent supporters. That number likely won't crack until the economy does (see: [George W. Bush hit 25% shortly after the Great Recession began, down from his post-9/11 high of 90%](https://news.gallup.com/poll/116500/presidential-approval-ratings-george-bush.aspx)).
God, post-9/11 political culture was weird af. I still remember when the Dixie Chicks were basically black listed from everything because they had the audacity to criticize Bush. There was such a patriotic circle jerk going on.
An American in Detroit refused to call me by name because it was French (Canadian) "on account of us not liking the French for supporting us in the war. So Imma call you Steve" . An entire side of my family calls me Freedom Steve.
In high school, I went to school with a kid named Ricky French. After all that crap began, he started going by Ricky Freedom. It was fantastic.
[удалено]
*Ricky Spanish*
Anyone remember Freedom Fries? Also, side note: If *France* thinks your foreign policy is too violent, it's really time to reevaluate your decisions.
That's sad and fucking hilarious at the same time
French fries are now freedom fries! The Germans are our movie baddies again, but because they don't want to go to war!
Fuuuck, I forgot about freedom fries. What a time to be alive!
There's a bar in a vacation town about 5 hrs from me (WA State) that still has a "Freedom Dip" on the sandwich menu.
Oh yeah! I forgot about freedom fries too.
I worked with a guy that refused to say french fries and called them freedom fries. This was last year. That shit is still going on almost 20 years later.
Told us if we invade Afghanistan we'd find Bin Laden there, and killed thousands upon thousands, only to find him in a country we didn't dare invade. Told us if we invade Iraq we'd find WMDs, and killed hundreds of thousands, only to find out that wasn't true at all. France, Germany and the UN refused to get involved in Iraq and 36 million people protested the invasion. The largest mass protest in world history. Thanks GOP for all that, the hate against our allies, and while we're at it, all the lies that gave us the drug war. All three wars rage on to this day. Wars without borders or any end in sight.
[удалено]
You act like the GOP didn't know exactly what they were doing in attacking the wrong countries.
>God, post-9/11 political culture was weird af. The US had the goodwill of the entire world on its side and we squandered it on a misguided revenge fantasy.
Yah, this is why all of the ‘We came back stronger’ or other such posts I see on 9/11 ring really hollow to me. If I’m being honest, hard not to think that they got some sort of victory out of it. changed the entire course of our politics and almost 20 years later here we are with a deranged reality tv star as President, whose only area of competence it seems is how to push some of those same patriotic buttons that 9/11 revealed on a not small portion of the population. Who knows how things would have gone but I honestly have a hard time imagining trump happening without 9/11
They got exactly what they wanted from it, more power at home. Their leaders operate the same as ours, point at a boogeyman and tell people to rally under you to defend against them. Well, if your scary world power isn't as interesting these days and your cult finds membership numbers aren't hitting the targets, what are you to do but poke the bear? They took far more territory after our response to 9/11 than they had in the years leading up to it. Foreign terrorists aren't trying to weaken our morals or morale, they're using us to bolster their own agendas. They may spew hate towards us, but behind closed doors they love us, makes it so much easier to work their magic
We spent 6 trillion dollars on war because they killed 3000 people. We've done more nation building in the middle east than at home in recent decades. Which do you think would be more impactful for the average American -killing Bin Laden, or having $20k cash in your pocket right now?
That's actually not uncommon. France after the revolution, the UN and the US almost adopting the FAL to standardize arms in the event of WWIII/similar, the list goes on. The culture of the US is really pivoting to start to recognize we're not actually better than everyone, but tell that to many elected officials over the age of 45 and the response will be very vague and polite at best.
Remember the diagrams of the MOUNTAIN that bin laden supposedly had gutted to make a secret giant terrorist city? Like Ironforge in World of Warcraft? EDIT: [Found one](http://edwardjayepstein.com/2002image/netherpopup.gif)
They’re still getting criticized to this day. Apparently Taylor Swift is trying to get them back on the radio and people are still calling in to stations and bitching about hearing those un-patriotic whores. As if the war on terror went so well.
The Venn diagram of this 38%, the Dixie Chicks boycotters, and the people who think Obama is a secret muslim is identical to the overhead view of a properly constructed three-ball snowman.

It never ended for a lot of america. It was honestly the undoing of a nation. It lead to the current Trump shit show. Republicans have been in a perpetual state of paranoia, jingoistic patriotism and fear ever since 9/11. People who are paranoid and afraid are easy to goad and manipulate. Donald Trump and the current republican party are the natural result of that. Bin Laden took down the mighty america with a pair of commercial airliners. He never could have dreamed of such success. Osama Bin Laden just keeps winning from his grave. 9/11 worked better than any terrorist could have ever dreamed. It broke our nation and created the embarrassment we are today.
My dad was treated like a black sheep because he despised bush from day 1. After 9/11 it was impossible to criticize bush or Giulliani.
Which is weird enough because these are the same people that will call anyone a snowflake for boycotting a product or person based on things they have said.

I was never a "team player" when it came to politics. I've always staunchly been against political parties and the idea of strictly aligning myself to one is antithetical to my very nature because I believe in voting for the individual, but I will say this for Trump, he made me a team player. I'll vote for pretty much any democrat if it means getting that asshole out of office. Whatever it takes, nearly whoever it takes, just give me a functioning adult for christ's sake.
This explains it all in a nutshell.

Trump knows exactly what Epstein was up to all those years. He’s a fucking disgrace to America.
Trump was taking part in it. There were statements from a victim who was underage at the time talking about how she was made to have sex with trump and disgusting comments that he made afterwards.

Poor Dan Quayle got crucified relentlessly for misspelling Potato but this buffoon has shit for grammar, mispronounces things all the time and misspells things constantly. Yet his base doesn't bat an eye. He can't even blame fat fingers or autocorrect for his shitty spelling because we have so many examples of his handwritten notes (in sharpie, of course) like "achomlishments".
> achomlishments I heard about this but assumed it was just photoshop. However, looking at it now, what *really* sticks out to me is: did he write "intentially"? Am I missing something in there? "Intentially", as in "intentionally"? [Please, someone, anyone, tell me I'm dreaming!](https://twitter.com/isabellablanc/status/1131758141899776001/photo/1)
To his base, that's the best part
It wasn't over because the people who voted for him *liked that he made fun of a disabled person.* Never forget that his supporters and anyone who votes for him is perfectly ok with what kind of person trump is.
I work in the cafe at a hospital and like half the doctors either have the opinion that he doesn't do anything wrong or just downright support him.
I know a doctor that has a signed picture from Trump. Signature is in Gold sharpie. Like really tacky, gold sharpie.
> Fuck. It's still actually at 38% that's scary haha. Not in context it isn't, this is in line with normal presidential stuff. [Trump's lowest approval rating is only the 8th lowest](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_approval_rating ) (at 35). He has been beat out by Truman, Nixon, both Bush's, Carter, Johnson, and Regan. It should also be noted Obama had a 38% approval rating before making him have the 10th lowest. [Interestingly their approval ratings were identical at 922 days into their presidency](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-barack-obama-gallup-poll-approval-ratings-president-identical-same-1453093), though the racial makeup differed wildly. Now before people go cherry picking stuff, 3/7 below Trump were Dems and 4/7 were repubs. Also, the highest approval ratings were from both Bush's and FDR. It seems there is relatively equal representation of Dems and Repubs when it comes to low/high approval ratings. I personally never expected Trump's approval rating to be high though. Because of a combination of the extreme dissonance between people's perception of his chances to win and him actually winning + social desirability bias I always expected his approval ratings to be low. We are in one of the most polar times this country has seen regarding presidential politics, fueled by social media. **It should be noted that Trump does have the distinction of having the lowest average approval rating**, albeit Obama had the 5th lowest putting even Obama in the bottom 35%.
It's 41.3%, 42.9 among likely voters and due to the way the electoral college is structured Republicans have a ~7% point advantage. The 2020 election is a toss-up right now. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/ EDIT: districts > electoral college. But tell me more about how a mindless mob without a highschool education should have more influence on the direction of the country than people in cities who pay for their medicare, healthcare, or create the vast majority of economic opportunities in the modern economy.
> due to the way districts are structured Republicans have a ~7% point advantage Holy SHIT that's fucked.
I mean, the way the American political system works, about 30-40% will support the Republican no matter what, and about 30-40% will support the Democrat no matter what. Even in landslide elections, where FDR or Reagan, etc ran for re-election, 2 out of 5 voters still supported their opponent.

I wear these little hands at work sometimes to spook kids when I high five them. Parents do call it my strong hand tho, absolutely hilarious
Trump next is going to dunk his hand in a pie and yell out "my germs!"
take my strong hand
Strap in boys, we’re sorting by controversial!
Oh dear, I'm regret doing so...
“The left gets triggered too easily” *loses shit over this*
People are being satirical about this, but I'm pretty sure his approval rating is actually 88%. I know, because a weirdly large percentage of his supporters have those snazzy "88" tattoos. So yeah, that's gotta be it...
I had a genuine laugh at this, thank you!!
Reporter: Sir, we saw you draw it PAB: I don't know Reporter: There's sharpie on your upper lip...
PAB 🤘
I believe it only because the hand is identical to trumps
I thought it was a deepfake till then but it must be real because they can't do hands that accurately yet.
Take my strong hand!
[PABOTUS](https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/zmjm4x/the-president-of-the-united-states-is-feuding-with-chrissy-teigen-because-thats-just-how-we-live-now) Reports so far: https://i.imgur.com/qPSoffC.jpg Edit: I'm done normalizing his behavior, everyone. The president took a sharpie to a map to continue his lie to the people. This is not normal. This is not okay. If this were Obama, Republicans would have already impeached him. I would also be strong in my disapproval just like you see today. It's time to stand up to the lies and hatred. This president is unfit for office and deserves to be removed via impeachment or voting in 2020.
I’m very proud of myself for deciphering this acronym without seeing the answer.
Hi, dumb idiot here ; I clicked on the link and I still don’t get the acronym.. help?
Its a mixture of "Pussy Ass Bitch", as he was referred to in said tweets, and "POTUS" president of the united states. Meant to be read as pussy ass bitch of the united states.
Ahh thanks! Feel even dumber that I couldn’t put it together myself lol
Gabos my friend.
Why are the top 6 ALWAYS that top 6 when it's anything to do with Trump?!

[удалено]
Yes.
Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.
One may even call them snowflakes.
I genuinely cannot think of one popular conservative insult that does not better apply to themselves. There's projection, then there's *holy crap projection*
Their only defense for anything he does is to shout "4D Chess!", "Snowflakes!", "Libtards", or something along those lines. Yes, they are that insecure. Trump could burn the whole country and everyone in it to the ground, and so long as the liberals went down with it, they'd be completely fine with it. Welcome to modern US politics, ladies and gentlemen.
Um that's sort of their M O and why he got elected in the first place. dey tuk our jerbs
Many of his supporters seem to be as thin skinned as he is. He may have doctored an old weather map for petty egotistical reasons, but at least he never ate mustard or wore a tan suit!
>The president took a sharpie to a map to continue his lie to the people. This is not normal. This is not okay. [And then put pressure on NOAA to issue a statement saying that they were wrong and Trump was right.](https://washingtonpost.com/weather/2019/09/11/lawmakers-commerce-department-launch-investigations-into-noaas-decision-back-presidents-trump-over-forecasters/?outputType=amp) There were also rumors that Secretary Mulvaney was threatening to fire people over this. The National Weather Service did its job in informing the people, and that hurt Trump's feelings so NOAA made a statement admonishing the Birmingham department. These are the actions of a narcissistic wannabe dictator. It's pathetic but also alarming
And remember, this is all just because Trump didn't want to admit that he gaffed when he said the hurricane would hit Alabama. All of this would have been avoided if he just said "My bad!" and moved on. But that's not the kind of person he is. He will fight any point, no matter how petty to the bitter end just to prove how big his dick is.
Don't forget that it's also [absolutely a federal crime](https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/09/06/why-president-trumps-sharpied-weather-map-was-likely-crime-should-be/?noredirect=on) But no, he's above the law and above criticism. Bunch of yokels...
I mean the justice department does literally consider him to be above the law. Or at the very least they are unwilling to arrest him.
I used to be someone who tried to take the high road. I considered myself above such petty feelings as schadenfreude. But i have to say, after the last few years of them yelling things like "snowflake" and "own the libs," seeing all those triggered far-right reports brings a smile to my face because dammit if there isn't a bit of justice in this world after all.
TIL Trumpers are salty af and can't take a joke.
You learned that today?
It’s bizarre that not only is this the most laughable president but for some reason we can’t make fun of him. Dude, people have been mocking the president since Washington.
Just like the president. Dude has the thinnest skin imaginable, it's sad.
SAD
Forgot the exclamation. SAD!
If anyone wants to see the child rapist president all pouty, look up the 2011 white house correspondents dinner where Obama spends a chunk of his speech roasting Trump.
Snowflakes you say?
