He wasn't the center of attention and didn't know what to do

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 60 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I am going to faint even harder than the other guy

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 34 points 1 week ago

I'm the best fainter. Everybody says it.

[–] thagoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Lots of people are saying I'm the best fainter. Nobody faints better than me...

I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints, but I can't help the fact that everyone can see these scars

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago

Lol, exactly what I was gonna say. He's so pissed that suddenly no one cares about him, and he's too worthless to be of any actual help

[–] Tb0n3@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

That's exactly my first reaction. He's such a narcissist piece of shit.

[–] youCanCallMeDragon@lemmy.world 158 points 1 week ago (15 children)

It really sucks being a sane American right now. Like yeah you should boycott the US because money is the only language they speak, but it’s people like me who are going to suffer for it. Trump and his buddies are going to be fine. Feel like I’m rooting for my own downfall.

[–] Sunforged@lemmy.ml 48 points 1 week ago

You and me both bud.

[–] tfm@europe.pub 43 points 1 week ago

Yesterday showed at least some hope for you guys

[–] Terces@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago (8 children)

Please don't take this the wrong way, because I absolutely understand your position and the shitty position your in.

Trump IS your president. Whether you voted for him or not. At the same time, the government, or rather the way you are governed, is also YOUR responsibility. No one can change it but you and your fellow citizens. If you don't like your president, elect someone else. If you don't like the presented options, pressure whatever party you think fits into providing better options. If you fear, you won't be able to ever get a real vote anymore, then fight for your right! No one from the outside is going to come in and fix this for you. This is THE ONE responsibility that you have as a citizen....

[–] Bongles@lemmy.zip 46 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes, but, it's a responsibility spread across the entire population. If you've ever been apart of a group project in a school setting you're likely familiar with how people can fuck that up despite your best efforts. Yes you're also responsible, but you (imo) also get to bitch about how they fucked up your project.

[–] Terces@lemmy.world -4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Absolutely. But you can't do more than kick the ass of everyone in your group that isn't doing their part. You can't stop and give up as well. You have to motivate all other group members and - if necessary - kick out the one dude that does nothing.

So...you can complain and moan, but in the end it does not change what you have to do.

From the other siexe of the pond, I really wish you all the strength and wish you all the best. I'm serious, I'm really worried about everyone in the US.

The highlight of this incident was Doctor Oz actually behaving like a doctor, politics aside.

Trump, meanwhile, showed leadership by... uhm... watching. He literally froze, for the love of god...!

[–] zqwzzle@lemmy.ca 43 points 1 week ago (1 children)

TBF that was probably the least harm he could do.

I mean years ago when more aware he bragged about how he couldn't deal with the site of blood, so this is in character for him. Probably not great with any crisis, we've seen evidence of that too. Weak. MAGA, this is what you wanted as a role model leader? Y'all are weak too.

Accidental Renaissance material.

[–] the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 42 points 1 week ago

Thats why the GOP backed him to begin with, he's a useful idiot.

[–] dariusj18@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago

This is def a new meme format

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 30 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Setting aside the vapid moron on the left, what even happened here? Did somebody accidentally catch a whiff of Trump's fetid adult diaper?

Irrelevant but why can’t this man purchase a bespoke suit? Surely our tax money could even provide him with a suit that looks like it actually belongs to him.

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 29 points 1 week ago

He trained himself to look a certain way on television that he himself thinks looks good and hides the stuff he is insecure about.

Combined with being surrounded by yes man and being unable to deal with criticism.

Mental illness on so many levels.

[–] tfm@europe.pub 19 points 1 week ago

His suits cost thousands of dollars apparently, which makes it even more ridiculous.

Trump looks like he'll follow suit any minute now.

Actually listening to him speak for several minutes is horrifying. Reading excepts and watching short clips just doesn't get the level of dementia across. Seen the video where Japan's new prime minister has to lead him around? Trump's walking around, utterly glazed, doing the thorazine shuffle. If a cop saw me walking down the street like that, confronted me and found me in Trump's condition, I'd either be in jail for public intoxication or checked into the ER.

Really hard to watch without screaming, "Why isn't every media outlet on the planet hammering this home! The most powerful man in the world should be in a care home!"

First administration was bad enough, but he's so, so very far worse off now.

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

I ended up seeing stuff from his first term and before. The content hasn't changed; he's still an old racist bigot. But the way he talks has drastically slowed. He rambles more than he used to. He's not well. Biden was too old for office. This guy is worse.

Record scratch: You might be wondering how I got here.

[–] Iamsqueegee@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

It really looks like everyone is ogling a turd the other asshole left behind and getting ready to either praise it, or blame the circumstance on some marginalized group.

Edit: are they looking at the person that had health issues? Sorry, I thought this was just some random pic.
