We knew what he was when he was elected. He's been a public figure since the 80s, decades of dirtbag, he's always been vile. There's no one who represents the USA "executive class" better than Trump.

He was the man America celebrated for over 40 years, with best-selling ghostwritten books, talk show circuit, front page news, cover of GQ and Playboy, prime-time WWF wrestling star, blockbuster film cameo, popular major network show, and so on.

He is America's Monster ^(tm)^, all of our worst traits combined into one abomination. The perfect President for a long-corrupt and decaying empire.

America never celebrated him. He was only ever a punchline, always.

The only people actually in awe of him were likely the human garbage that lives on Staten Island - because as has always been said, "donald trump is a stupid/poor person's idea of a rich/smart person" Including the majority of his life lived in rotting, moldy fake boardrooms where he serially bankrupted terrible businesses while committing crimes and taking money from the mafia/russia.

He is the personification of every narcissist's most evil, broken outbursts.

And I have zero doubt he paid or influenced his way into media references. It hurt me hard when in an episode of Quantum Leap, where Sam is literally putting his own life on the line to put right what once went wrong and he inadvertently "encourages" the kid who would become pedo-king fascist

If end stage capitalism was a person in other words.

How broken is everyone in that country that they elected this garbage.....twice! he is the mirror for the majority in that country, I am sorry.

[–] bagsy@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

It just proves to me how incredibly powerful propaganda is. I used to think the internet was a wonderful thing, meant to bring people together. Now i just see it as cesspit, taken over by advertisers and propagandists. Something to be avoid and steer children and the elderly away from.

A ridiculous number of them voted for him 3 bloody times.

Unforgivable.

It will take generations of good behaviour before the rest of the world will want to truat the Americans again.

How long before he tries the same with Washington/Lincoln?

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 31 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Hasn't he mentioned something about the Lincoln Memorial? His ramblings are all over the place, but the fact that people around him follow the orders as if they make sense makes any utterance dangerous.

Kennedy and Lincoln

Both presidents that have been assassinated

Does he know something we don’t?

I don't think he realizes what a memorial is either.

[–] adjectivenoun@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

I can't wait for Trump's name to be on a memorial. I say we build the most gilded latrine evar! It can be a granite mausoleum that empties directly onto his carcass.

[–] some_designer_dude@lemmy.world 22 points 6 days ago (5 children)

Trump should get a nameless gravestone. “Here lies some liar.” And shape it like a urinal.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 10 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Nah make it like a real toilet. If it were a urinal, Democrats would be afraid to shit in it because somebody has to maintain decorum, and if you're gonna shit in a urinal then why even have law.

Why does he think his name belongs there?

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 6 days ago (4 children)

He thinks that putting his name next to JFK will make people think he was as beloved as JFK

Narcissistic Personality Disorder, mostly. A sprinkle of dementia in there too for good measure.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 9 points 6 days ago

He thinks his name belongs on absolutely fucking everything.

[–] im_fine_sandy@nord.pub 8 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Its a legacy thing. He knows he can't cheat death and he wants to be remembered.

It won't work.

Even if some great fascist leader emerged from the vacuum he leaves, they will blame the coming shitpocalypse on Trump. Frankly he deserves the blame, but my point is neither side of politics is going to remember him fondly.

Does orange man understand the premise that in order for this to be done he has to be 1) dead and 2) remembered for something good he's done?

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 17 points 6 days ago

Felon rapist pedophile broken.

For reasons of National Security we have to demolish the Kennedy Performing Arts Center to build the Trump Amphitheatre with amphibious assault capabilities.

All because Obama laughed at Trump at a dinner

[–] Smeagol666@crazypeople.online 4 points 5 days ago

He knows that when he's dead, we're going to tear down every goddamn thing that human shit-stain put his name on.

[–] discocactus@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

How much of a douchebag does RFK have to be to still haul water for Trump? Worse than Ted Cruz at this point.
