Trump and Ivanka always have a fake smile ready at a moments notice, but Dumb and Dumber always look like it's the first time they've ever seen a camera and are mystified by this sorcery that flashes light at them.

I had no fucking clue he had two sons until I saw this post

They both look like a blind monkey knitted them into existence

[–] Eximius@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Fantastic sentence. Stealing this.

[–] bulwark@lemmy.world 57 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

Jesus, his sons look dumb.

[–] cabron_offsets@lemmy.world 30 points 2 years ago

Got some news for you, bruh…

[–] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

They ARE dumb.

Also, the one in the middle is Vince McMahon’s kid.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Fuck you, I will never unsee it

[–] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)
[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Being familiar with McMahon, it isn't out of the realm of possibilities

[–] bcgm3@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

The seed is strong.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Like cartoons of two wall street guys.

[–] norimee@lemmy.world 49 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah, but they are "WHITE". That makes a crucial difference for bigots and racist.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

European whites have always hated and fought each other, see a little thing called all of European history. It’s only when European have common enemies, they kind of unite.

[–] OhNoMoreLemmy@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago

And that common enemy is normally another European country.

[–] Hugh_Jeggs@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

Sideways glance at Belgium

[–] 242@lemmy.cafe 5 points 2 years ago

That's what they mean when say someone is or isn't a "real" American. Skin tone is the deciding factor for them.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They’re a weird family that’s only cultural traditions are “be aristocratic and rich.”

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Their roots are not aristocratic, they were poor or middle class immigrants who came to the U.S. and made money https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Trump

Edit Trumps granddad ran a brothel, his grandmas family were poor instrument makers

[–] Clusterfck@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah. This isn’t a big reveal. The Trump family got there’s. How are they supposed to be better than everyone if everyone has the same opportunity they did?

[–] DMBFFF@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Many Trump supporters seem to tolerate some European—particularly west, north, and central European—immigrants for some reason.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well it’s a very nuanced discussion, you know. It’s not just black and white.

[–] DMBFFF@lemmy.world -5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I see little nuance.

Those who oppose immigration are generally, at least to varying degrees, bigots.

Non-indigenous have little moral say on this issue.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I think he made a joke

[–] raef@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Not too West, though. They start to get dark in the West

[–] Hux@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

“When [those countries] sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

[–] bcgm3@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Every accusation is a confession.

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Please stop giving Germany more of a bad name. We already have Hitler to be associated with the country, even though he was Austrian. We
also have enough fascist pieces of shit of our own. We vehemently deny any "germanness" in these sleazy con artists and fascists.

/a German

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 10 points 2 years ago

Very common to try to remove the ladder you climbed up on. Such hypocrisy.

[–] raef@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Keep it going. Throw Melania and Barron on there

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 years ago

Nigel Farnage similarly, Gert Wilder's as well AFAIK.

[–] mightyfoolish@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

There's a lot of white people who don't see Europeans emigrating to the US as immigrants; because white people are generally from Europe. It's absolutely absurd and misses the point of what an immigrant is.

[–] DMBFFF@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So do I.

Both US and Canada (I'm Canadian) can benefit from increased immigration.

[–] JeromeVancouver@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Canada needs to slow its immigration so that infrastructure can catch up.

Our unemployment rate is over 6% as well.

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 0 points 2 years ago

Or... use immigrants to build more infrastructure or others can move if they don't like where thy live, much like the immigrants did.

Hm, Fred looks a lot better than Donald. But maybe he's not as old in that picture, Donalds is pushing 80 after all.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

bro what is with jr and eric

[–] ryunoen@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 2 years ago

Ivanka has had surgery. I don't think she'd be ugly without it or anything, but it does make comparing them a bit unbalanced.
