One day I'd like to see a female reporter lose her cool one day and slap that pig in the face.
Trump only acts this way because people let him get away with it.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

If you're in the USA, that's how you get a visit from the Secret Service (anyone else find it ironic it's SS.) Outside the USA depending on country you might get a visit from local forces.
You know what else is dumb? Not talking about the Trump-Epstein (TM) files.
Trump's ever-worsening dementia is causing his deep misogyny and obsessive tendencies to go into overdrive. We're being subjected to the ramblings of a demented old pedophile by a group of capitalist criminals who refuse to depose him. Good times.
His misogyny, along with his racism, ableism, jingoism, etc.isms weren't that deep. His showman personality was enough to hide his skin-deep defects.
Oh I know, his utter awfulness his entire life was him being good lol He's legit one of the worst people to ever exist
At least it's only going to get worse. This is as good as it's ever going to be with him.
Ok so it's:
- We're not going to touch the East Wing
- Just kidding, we destroyed the entire thing
- We're going to pay for the whole $400M
- Nevermind the funding we received, we're now going to use taxpayer money to fund $400M
- Just kidding, it's $1B now
He originally said it would cost $200M. The cost has already doubled once...
Pray he doesn't alter the deal any further.
Doesn't he also owe us all like $7,000 a piece?
How has no reporter told him to go fuck himself to his face? Way more restraint than I'd have.
Because doing so will utterly black ball you from ever having a position again because you are risking taking away the media's access to the USA president, even if he's a panzy ass, little bitch boy of a rapist pedophile cannibal.
Oh it would be career ruining. But I'm still surprised at the restraint of all of them. That someone hasn't boiled over (yet) is impressive.
Which is what prevents a lot of things from being said that absolutely should be.
If you hurt the soggy man's feelings, the right-wing media ecosystem will hunt you down and send your family death threats
My god that photo is hilarious 😂
Too many people think anything they don't immediately understand means the other person's intelligence has to be the problem...
It's usually the opposite, but it's not just a problem for trumpets.
Very few people actually ask questions anymore in an attempt to understand others, they just care if it agrees or disagree with their own opinions.
He looks and sounds awful. Like... This man is not just mentally sick, he's sick sick.
Has anyone ever asked him about the color of his fucked up juggalo face?
His tie clashes with his face lol
Did you catch that thing at 0:21?
"You are a re-...you are not a smart person."
I'm surprised he has that much self-control at all.
That sounded to me more like what my wife's grandpa did when sundowning where he would start a word, forget it partway in, but remember the intent and just change words.
His handlers read him a list of the words he can't say. They probably have to remind him 5 times before meeting the press.
There's ballooning now? No wonder it's so expensive, though I imagine they can utilize the abundance of hot air produced in the building.
Trump has an inflation fetish?
