he says he's not dead yet

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 55 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You're not fooling anyone you know!

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 36 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I can't take him like that, it's against regulations

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 35 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Look, isn't there something you can do?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 3 weeks ago

I feel happy!

Why does this have the Lord of the Rings ending filter over it?

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

I don't know, but I liked it anyway

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 124 points 3 weeks ago

And why should I believe a liar like him?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 60 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

we got a paradox at hand, since trump never says the truth

[–] GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org 25 points 3 weeks ago

It could be a deepfake. A whole new class of conspiracy theory is now actually plausible.

I mean, I fully expect an administration as corrupt and dishonest as this one to spend the minimal time and money required to do such a thing for as long as they can get away with it.

[–] NewPerspective@lemmy.world 49 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yeah, but he lies all the time... Can we trust him on this?

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

It's easy to anticipate his moves because he has so much visibility. We know what he means when he speaks because we have decades of written and spoken text from him. We don't trust him to do the right thing, but we do trust him to be as cruel as he suggests he is.

On the contrary, some lemmy.world users however only have two posts.. it's much harder to trust their words because we don't know them yet.

In front of a door stands two presidents. One lies all the time and the other is dead.

[–] Darkard@lemmy.world 48 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Former President JOE BIDEN “wouldn’t do them for months,” he added. “You wouldn’t see him. And nobody ever said there was ever anything wrong with him.”

Fucking lol. You never fucking shut up about him health

He is not dead. He is the undead. The wounds, the incoherent speech. The first zombie president.

When there is no more room in hell, the dead will walk the halls of the white house and congress.

Why did you link a picture of people during covid who refused to wear masks?

Well I didn't believe he was dead before but now I'm not so sure

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 24 points 3 weeks ago

That's exactly what a dead president would say.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 20 points 3 weeks ago

Well, he would say that, wouldn't he?

There's a necromancer working overtime somewhere

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago

It's Vance he used life steal on the Pope and is funneling it into Trump.

Who the hell is that supposed to be?

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like Anthony Hopkins' new movie, Trump.

Only someone who is dead would come out so strongly against this.
Trumpstein's dead, confirmed.

People should just hold huge protests that simultaneously celebrate his death and call for the release of the Epstein files. Maybe his orange, fat monkey head would explode.

On one hand, biology, but in the other hand, he's never been know to tell the truth before.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

given his lies track record, that must mean he's definitely dead

[–] anhydrous@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If I had a nickel for every time Drumpf told the truth, I'd now have a nickel, which isn't a lot.

[–] abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 3 weeks ago

Jokes on you, that's just JD Vance in Drag.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

There are two Trumps before you. One always lies and one is dead...

I don't believe him.

[–] switcheroo@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Look at his gross dead pig eyes and tell me that isn't dead...
