The coup already happened, my guy. The fascists are in charge.

Only if you've finished your first.

[–] audaxdreik@pawb.social 25 points 3 months ago

Coup. Coup, coup, coup.

[–] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 29 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I could use a second coup right about now.

[–] iThinkDifferentThanU@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

a lil Deuce coup? LoL

[–] teawrecks@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 months ago

We already have coup at home.

He also said

I am with you. I support you, and as president, I have your backs 100%. You'll never see me even waver a little bit.

Pretty easy to see which statement is true.

He also said a lot of people want your jobs and "we know everything about everyone."

Imagine being a general and being fired by a draft dodging felon rapist coward.

This is conservatism.

[–] Chivera@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Major bone spurs

This moron is leading you to your deaths, America.

We definitely know.

Can't do anything about it at the moment though. They've kept us so poor we can't even afford to protest in a way that doesn't put a lot of people's livelihoods at risk.

[–] scintilla@crust.piefed.social 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Just protest anyways and if enough people do it surely they can't evict everyone.

/s

[–] teawrecks@sopuli.xyz 7 points 3 months ago

It'll happen eventually. Not because everyone will finally decide it's the patriotic thing to do, but because they have no other option.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

...what does this mean?

[–] WhatGodIsMadeOf@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

As long as I can keep watching latenight comedy it's okay. /S

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 27 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You are preaching to the choir. His supporters aren't on Lemmy.

[–] foofiepie@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Not just America, if (without WHO funding) entirely containable diseases are no longer contained.

And we’ll have a few fat, rich, old narcissists, and a staggeringly stupid western voting populace (both sides of the Atlantic), to thank for it.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 46 points 3 months ago (2 children)

If the military leaders had any decency he would have left that meeting in chains.

[–] WhatGodIsMadeOf@feddit.org 39 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

And people are still banking on our military to save us. People don't realize how far gone genuine humanity is. We have barely been human beings for a long time. Nations are just a tool for the world's elite Mafia of which has no loyalty to anything but the game.

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago

And possibly lose money, power, and pensions!?!?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 39 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Cadet Bonespurs should shut the fuck up.

But he won’t.

On his own.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm tapping my nose very conspicuously right now

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

*knowing nod*

Trump is just following a great tradition of leadership.

If Canada is lucky the us will replace all their military with the uneducated brain dead, fat, untrained magats that make up ice and we will take them out in no time.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

Fuck that piece of shit. One of those generals is likely to arrange his "overthrow"

[–] bagsy@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

800 generals in the room, and not a spine among them.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Probably not a firearm among them, and for good reason

[–] demizerone@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

All them Generals and Admirals that had to sit there while a fucking Pedo and his TV talk show host crony threatened their careers. Fucking A.

[–] dukatos@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 months ago

USA needs a general from South Park movie...
