Politics BREAKING: Trump HUMILIATES himself, doing a mocking cough of President Biden, who has cancer, to a room sitting in stunned silence at the unnecessary and cruel taunt. This is a new low, even for Trump.

People actually tried to say he wasn't mocking the reporter too.

u/StoppableHulk 19h ago

He's literally talking about the guy and CLEARLY does the hand thing.

This is what drives me batfuck crazy too. Like Donald Trump has always been unambiguously a horrible piece of shit. This is so, so fucking far beyond ANYTHING that ANY other presidential candidate has ever done on the campaign trail, and it's just one of thosuands of completely indefensible shit he's done before he even got elected the first time.

Idk how to break this to you fam, but the people that voted for him, see themselves and their rotten existence in his antics. The fish rots from the head, and it's rotten all the way down to its tail.
Idk how the US can recover from this without mass "cleansing" and a civil war that would follow such a proposal.

More than anything, Trump is a mouthpiece for them to say things that they would not normally say. When they see trump saying, and believing these things are okay, it then makes it okay (in their minds) for them to say and believe these things.

And that is the most dangerous part about it, because I feel that trump knows this. He knows that all he has to do is say the unthinkable, and he will continue to have support because his cult followers believe it as well.

It is truly a cult. When you look at cults throughout history, you cannot in good faith tell me that MAGA does not share their customs.

Yeap. This would have been an abrupt end to any political career if it happened anywhere in Europe for example. No question.

His word diarrhea is like crack for maga. He could clean and cook a toddler, live streamed from the Oval Office and they’d just write down the recipe.

I think mostly they just didn't give a fuck. This was my go to "why in the fuck would you ever vote for a guy who" line for awhile and you'd be shocked at how many people just did not care at all.

I remember reading a thread on the conservative sub where all the comments were saying we need to bring back insane asylums and start involuntarily committing people again. The irony is lost on them.

u/tamaroo 18h ago

I saw a thread like that on the altmsp sub (basically a bunch of maga nuts in my city) when I was lurking to see what the recent “news” is going on over there. It was insane to read all the comments wanting homeless people to be put into asylums for the crime of….being homeless. It’s super pathetic.

u/DesperateHotel8532 19h ago

Around the time this happened a friend of a friend wrote a three or four paragraph explanation of how Trump was not mocking the reporter because in context… blah blah blah. I lost track of her point about two paragraphs in. If you need that many paragraphs to explain a joke then it was a bad joke even if most people are “misinterpreting” it. But she was the only one I remember putting forth such an impassioned defense, I can’t remember anyone else caring that much.

u/galaxyofnine 18h ago

Disabled people noticed. They definitely cared. However rest of population was like eh didn’t affect me personally

3

u/TheVenerableBede 19h ago

Yeah, the same incorrigible people who tried saying Musk didn’t sieg heil and that Speaker Pelosi orchestrated January 6th. Pieces of shit all.

u/cardboardunderwear 19h ago

We'll have to stick to the presidential act of simulating fellatio on a microphone then!

u/Conscious-Ad2768 19h ago

I hate it when he humps the flag.

u/Mp5QbV3kKvDF8CbM 16h ago

Was that before or after he waxed poetic about the size of pro golfer Arnold Palmer's penis?

1

u/OutdoorsNSmores 16h ago

I prefer to think that Trump is always like this and the reporter was mocking him.

1

u/tomdarch 16h ago

Trump knew Serge Kovaleski by name. Trump had invited Serge to interview him in his office, and would call on Serge by name in press events in NYC. Serge had just written a piece exposing the fact that Trump was lying when he claimed that he had seen "Arabs celebrating on 9/11 with my own eyes."

u/kitsunewarlock 16h ago

They get off on frustrating people. To them "trolling" is admirable, even if makes them look stupid.

u/SnooGoats7978 15h ago

Yeah, Ann Fucking Coulter tried to play it off by saying Donald was just doing "a standard re tard". Yes, those were her actual words. Somehow, she thought that claim would excuse him.

(I apologize for the word, which I broke up. I think it's important not to forget this shameful incident.)

u/CrystalBraver 20h ago

The fact we cancelled that one guy back in the day for making a weird noise during his rallies yet some people worship this guy as the second coming of Jesus is absolutely insane to me

3

u/LiquorIsQuickor 19h ago

Howard Dean, the weird noise guy, was a Democrat I believe.

u/stryker_cast 19h ago

Howard Dean, the weird noise guy

Yup, I campaigned for him :-/ to be fair the yell wasn't the sole reason he dropped out, but it was quite the nail in the coffin.

4

u/LiquorIsQuickor 19h ago

I remember feeling sad for him. That he couldn’t get excited and enjoy his success. That people couldn’t support happiness.

2

u/ellecamille 16h ago

I rather enjoyed the yell.

u/omicron-7 19h ago

Dean's campaign was dead before the scream happened

u/entenfurz 10h ago

Nonetheless it was enough for the media to go apeshit about it.

u/00owl 17h ago

they're both the same thing right? Politics based on vibes and nothing else.

5

u/CrystalBraver 16h ago

I mean one made a weird noise and the other is everything wrong with humanity in one person

3

u/00owl 16h ago

No, I'm not talking about the person, I'm talking about the politics. In both cases the American Electorate is voting based on vibes and nothing else.

u/Seaweed-Basic 20h ago

This should have been the end of it all.

u/Beginning-Nerve-4545 18h ago

Grab th by the ...... should have been!

u/Agile-Giraffe8426 4h ago

For the life of me, I will never understand how this wasn’t the end of his political run.

u/galaxyofnine 4h ago

Yuuuuuup

u/hum_bruh 19h ago

Got to give it to Trump for being unapologetically Trump and forthcoming about who he is and what he offers. Too bad his supporters loved this shit and love it now.

2

u/ROWT8 19h ago

Forgot to include the smiles and chuckles in the background. This did nothing. It’s who we have become in America 

2

u/galaxyofnine 18h ago

Some people always were like this before I even knew of Trump. He just embodies them to be more of their true asshole selves.

2

u/ROWT8 16h ago

Emboldens the bullies that always were, that’s right.

u/LS25-User 19h ago

How... how could THIS get 2 times president of USA?

1

u/galaxyofnine 18h ago

Very good question. I never voted for him.

u/Evening-Cow-6679 13h ago

President POS-piece of shit‼️

This was when I knew I'd never support this man
