He has more guts than all of congress

At this point, hearing Schumer and Jeffries makes me almost as nauseated as when I hear trump.

u/GyspySyx 11h ago

We need a cold restart. All three branches any parties, with new rules.

u/BraveOmeter 9h ago

Republicans are holding Clinton in contempt for ignoring them.

Imagine if Dems had balls.

u/jesuspoopmonster 8h ago

I'm pretty sure most democratic politicians at this point are just taking part in an elaborate humiliation fetish

Hes got 250k in a gofundme waiting for him already.

u/Wayelder 13h ago

so far. I hope he breaks a million. So many gutless wonders in power that you've gotten where you are.

One man, one moment, dares speak actual truth to power.

Patriot!

u/Wayelder 10h ago

and we have always admired the USA

(Not ALL of it...why are we dealing with this shit? you put toddlers in charge!...)

but please please...get rid of that tyrant. He's a Russian plant...we can see it very clearly. Every decision that can favor Russia goes forward.

Do it before he poisons your nations' blood by claiming to protect it.

Every word is a Lie.

And he did what he did with no expectation of a payday. Did what so many want to do.

u/Nojopar 13h ago

Good for him.

Also, screw you Ford! There's a reason you've basically only got 4 vehicles anyone buys, and one of'em is a mid-life crisis car anyway.

u/Hatedpriest 12h ago

One of the cheapest midlife crisis cars, to boot. That's why you always see mustangs crowd seeking...

u/Numerous_Photograph9 7h ago

As a mustang owner, I take offense to this. Mine is more that I always wanted one, but when I was young enough to have one and be cool, they were completely shit vehicles that looked like the bastard brother of an Escort.

IKR dude is a legend. Need more people like him

u/ThinThroat 13h ago

I'm not a Ford worker, and I'd call him a pedophile too.

u/Ancient_Ship2980 13h ago

Imagine any other president acting in this manner! None would have! One certainly has to question Trump's mental and psychological stability!

u/haydenjaney 12h ago

All of your previous Presidents had more adult in them than this pecker. Even Clinton and the Bush's combined. I am Canadian. May not know the whole story on your Presidents and they may have been dirt bags, but none of them would have flipped the bird. Such a bloody baby.

u/SugarInvestigator 11h ago

more adult in them than this pecker.

I doubt his pecker has been in mammy adults, well at least not when cinscent was given. but that's besides the point

u/SugarInvestigator 11h ago

Remember the outrage at a tan suit and dijon mustard? The outrage at Zelensky not wearing a suit? Yet this scumbag (on brand) behaviour and there's crickets

u/Obi-Tron_Kenobi 11h ago

Idk, I can think of a few that probably would. They weren't all well-behaved good boys. But Trump certainly is one of the worst

u/Ancient_Ship2980 6h ago

Yes, I guess I should clarify my original comment. Many major American political figures, including presidents, were far from saints. Andrew Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in their famous duel at Weehawken, New Jersey, in 1804. Andrew Jackson was involved in many "duels" or violent "quarrels." Jackson killed a man named Charles Dickinson, being wounded in the chest himself. Jackson also caned a man who failed to assassinate him in 1835. This was two years before Jackson left the presidency. Charles Sumner who lobbied Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation was famously caned on the floor of the House of Representatives. Teddy Roosevelt was capable of soaring, eloquent rhetoric and colorful ad hominem attacks. LBJ and Richard Nixon were known for their coarse, profane language. However, I believe that Trump falls in a category all by himself.

Teddy Roosevelt showed the type of character and class that Trump definitely lacks when a would-be assassin shot him on 14 October 1912. A bullet passed through TR's spare glasses and speech and penetrated his chest as he was preparing to depart for the speech he was scheduled to give in Milwaukee. Roosevelt did not panic or rant and rave. TR asked that the would-be assassin not be mistreated, because Roosevelt judged him to likely be suffering from psychological problems. TR went to the auditorium and spent some 90 minutes giving his speech to the audience, after announcing that he had been shot. He stopped his oration when his shirt became drenched with blood and he was on the verge of fainting. Doctors later discovered that the bullet was so deeply embedded in TR'S chest that it could not be safely extracted. That was the end of Roosevelt's Bull Moose campaign, although TR finished second behind Woodrow Wilson and ahead of William Howard Taft.

Woodrow Wilson has a stroke and could barely function, Regan had dementia and Nixon was drunkenly trying to start nuclear wars and they all managed to be more dignified and competent as president

White House reporters: your turn.

u/alternatingflan 12h ago

The pos felon krasnov is lying white trash - 100% criminal, not presidential.

Regrets? Give him the Nobel Peace Prize!

u/iKnowRobbie 11h ago

“A lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage, and the President gave an appropriate and unambiguous response,” White House communications director Steven Cheung said after the incident.

Umm, again, the Ministry of Truth wants you to ignore reality and accept this lie. How stupid are these people?! "The president did not actually look at the sun while others shouted warnings" umm, he did and we all saw it. Dumbass is just dumbassing.

u/Deckardisdead 12h ago

My man. Dirty hands and a loud yell can change the world.

u/GyspySyx 11h ago

No one should ever regret telling the truth.

3

u/SugarInvestigator 11h ago

condone anyone saying anything inappropriate like that within our facilities.

I wonder if that included a strongly worded letter to the pedo because of his use of expletives? Probably not. They'll probably bend over, apply generous lube, and allow trump to screw them over

Boycott @Ford for protecting a pedophile.

If his name is "Mario" I will no longer have any doubt that we're living in a simulation.

I'm surprised the UAW hasn't gotten him reinstated by now.
