Proud contributor to the fund.
The GoFundMe is now closed at just over $480k. Not a bad day's work. Well earned IMO
Why was it closed though?
TJ closed it as he thinks that's more than enough money. He says to donate to other causes if you want
Damn, what a badass.
I know it's probably not the reason why he did it but this guy just bought himself job security for life. Just say that you're the guy who got told by trump yomfuck himself, and booom, job!
Same for getting sex
Same for free drinks at a bar
Trump is so big that this guy is wet for life.
He should start an activist group with the goodwill he has!
Either way, he's awesome
Trump is so big that this guy is wet for life.
Trump is tiny in all the ways that matter. Tiny hands. Tiny intellect. Tiny dick.
tiny dreams
GoFundMe Campaign for Autoworker Who Got the ^tiniest Middle Finger From Trump Hits $400,000
Ftfy
There is absolutely no circumstance in which I would ever wish to meet the current president of the United States... except for this one...
To be directly told "Fuck you" by Donald is an incredible badge of honor.
And it was done twice with a bonus middle finger too?!
🥰
I dunno what he will do with that half-a-million bucks, but I hope he keeps it for himself. I wouldn't blame him at all. Also, there's a small chance he'll need it for legal council. You never know which species of cockroach that sort of money will bring out from under the stove.
I also heard that UAW is standing by his first amendment rights. So a nice payday, a fuck you to Trump, and gets to keep his job. What a happy ending, thanks unions!
BuT wHAt aBoUt whEn I hAVe to pAy $30 bUckS a yEAr iN uNiOn DueS???
UnIon bAd
$30 a month! That adds up to a PS5, totally not worth it! /s
It will not buy a PS5 pro, however
My union, which is substantially less powerful than the UAW, is about $120/mo for me.
Worth every penny I’m sure. I was making a reference to the anti-union propaganda that tried to argue union dues were worth trading for a PS5
Lmao I looked it up, on my delta flight… it was a delta ad: https://thehustle.co/delta-airlines-anti-union-video-games
Poverty wages + 0 (and belief that I could have bought a PS5 instead of joining a union)
Vs
Livable wage and without a doubt more than enough money for like 15 ps5s in a year on top of that
Who would win
NOMYGOD
That middle finger thing was real? Yeah, our president is a 12 year old. Can you imagine any other world leader doing this? Even north korea wouldn't do this.
I could see Putin doing it
Nah Putin would have them chucked out of a window a few days later.
I thought it was shopped because it was so damn tiny.
I thought it was shopped because it was so big.
I miss cretien.
Wow first I'm hearing about this. Wild shit
He was ready to defend himself against an intruder using a Inuit stone carving at one point too. Although his wife was really the hero of that incident.
To be fair north Korea wouldn't do this because they'd send him to the coal mines instead lol
North Korea would have him and his family and his family's extended family's extended family disappeared.
But he wouldn't have flipped him off in the first place. Can you picture any other world leader doing this? Maybe the drug thug from the Philippines awhile back. That's all I can think of.
Bolsanaro. They were all cloned in the same "worst human imaginable" septic vat.

Yeah.
The other bastard who did such a thing was Rodrigo Roa Duterte, currently in the Hague, under ICJ scrutiny.

It isn't an appropriate response for the President of the United States. It's the response of an insecure narcissist. A real President would ignore the guy, because responding gives the heckler power. A real President would view an unruly person screaming as insignificant and to be pitied.
Obama would have been impeached for flipping the bird.
Remember that time he wore a tan suit? What about the time he asked for spicy mustard? Fox played those up for days.
*years/decades
French flavour over freedom flavour? How unamerican. Telling your citizens to fuck off, now that's patriotism.
Here’s $10 from me.
Sabula, the Landmesser and Wegert of our time.
Fuck it, I sent him 5 bucks.
Me too.
Amazing sequence of events. Love when people actually get to him
