Remember folks.

If you didnt vote, you helped to enable this.

Congratulations you shortsighted fucks.

Good thing I voted for Russian asset Jill Stein, now I get to sit on my moral highground over this comment!

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

Oh yeah the "tHiRd pArTy".

That was painful when tankies were all over the place screaming gEnOcIdE if people didn't vote third party. Especially for a non USAnien.

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

That, but also they hacked it

Remember folks, Presidents aren't elected by popular vote, and every time you read this over the decades, it will be worthless posturing

You mean for oil and for distraction from his pedophilia. What are a few lives to save his sorry ass?

you mean the draft dodger?

If you don't want to die for Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics, are you even a real American?

Who’s ready to die for oi…I mean in the name of Israe…I mean freedom? 🫲🍊🫱

There is an update on this, appearently the US went in and took the Venezuelan president and his wife out of the country: https://www.cnbc.com/2026/01/03/trump-us-operation-captured-venezuela-president-nicolas-maduro.html

At least they didnt murder them.. Maybe they murdered their defence force though. Guess we will find out.

At least they didnt murder them

Yet. The night's still young and this party's just getting started...

I wish this was a tongue-in-cheek comment, but I fear that taking Venezuela was just the beginning. Question is whether Canada or Greenland is next.

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

My guess is Mexico, Greenland, Canada.

But if he goes after Mexico I have a feeling that would turn out like Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Everyone underestimates Mexico.

[–] Asfalttikyntaja@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago

Nah, I put my money on Greenland first, then maybe Mexico or Panama.

He has already called out Cuba and Columbia. We are ramping up military around China from what it looks like. Trump's people are posting pictures of Greenland with an American flag.

Your guess is as good as mine, but it seems he will go to war with literally everyone over the Epstein files.

Other counties need to start issuing arrest warrants for this stupid fuck. He is a multi time felon, rapist, and child rapist, grifter, thief...

He shouldn't be allowed in other countries. Fuck, he should be in jail in this one...

[–] aloofPenguin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

he would be in jail if he didn't get the idea to run for president a second time.

Let's just hope that we see the whole trials thing re-emerge once he is done, that has the best chances of locking him up (dare I say 100% ?). Though I do feel that he deserves worse, whatever that may be.

Finally, current government of the USA showed its true face.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

You mean "this year"? Right?

[–] maid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I can't believe anyone bought that peace president bullshit

The people who bought it in 2024 are still buying it.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

But according to his memo, it's not about oil, it's about establishing control of the entire western hemisphere. He also said Europe is on their own dealing with threats in the Asian continent. But apparently North and South America are all just America now. I guess the gulf was just rebranding. He's offering to deal with Mexican cartels too. Apparently America First means all of the Americas.

[–] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

No, Trump stated clearly that US oil companies are now starting to operate the Venezuelan oil, and keep it flowing like it is supposed to flow.

Dick Chaney is turning in his grave how openly this is about the oil.

Peace of shit

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

If Humpty Dumpty was a baby killing child rapist….can we just fast forward to when his grave is a gender neutral bathroom 🚽

[–] lukaro@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Charge $20 for using it and we could pay off the national debt in a few hours.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Until then you can also use Harry Kissingers kr Marghret Thatchers Graves as Gender neutral bathrooms.

Man, he looks like he's about 2 hamberders from death.

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 1 points 1 week ago

We can only hope.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 1 week ago

I'd ask if he would send his children to war, but then I forgot that he probably would send Eric to the front of the line.

[–] Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I wonder what his "declared" drone count is? They don't report these as much as they used to, does that mean they are no longer using drones to attack opponents across the globe?

Ha! Just kidding. Of course they are, they just don't report it.

p.s. the declared drone count is over 2200, more than Obama. Mercy, that means there must be something like 22,000 strikes.

And this is why he illegally sabotaged all those wind and solar projects, because they would compete with this planned oil β€œacquisition.”

[–] JackFrostNCola@aussie.zone 1 points 1 week ago

He? The puppet does what the dollar bags pulling on his strings make him do

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Because the "peace president" stuff was just self-deluding from previous campaign of baiting the left (read: everyone left of Mussolini, previously everyone left of Thatcher) into taking the moral high ground.

Innuendo Studios made the video "We go low, you go high", in his series on alt-right tactics. However this tactic is way more widespread, and doesn't just involve establishment democrats, but leftists everywhere, and similar behavior patterns happen so much on the scene, a lot of "cancel culture" actually happened due to rightists convincing leftists to "call out the hypocrites", and often try and succeed on the strawman of what leftism is.

A lot of TERFs were birthed like that too. But the whole "peace" stuff was to cede the left on imperialistic wars, that if the aggressor has some concerns, they must blame the victims for those wars, and callout the victims if they're defending themselves.

Nope. They are ready to send our children for oil. Not theirs.

Why is he so pale? Did someone power wash him?

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He has to reapply the orange stain every 4 hours.

[–] JackFrostNCola@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

It puts the lotionon its skin
