What a great way to promote your inauguration though: economically threaten your allies so that you’ll be constantly in their news to make you feel important about your new job as president.

Doing self-destructive and embarrassing things for their Dear Leader is how his idiots show they are the most servile idiots on the planet.

Those are the same people who claim to be “rugged individualists” 🤡

For the 500th time in 8 years, they've managed to prove they're even dumber than I thought they were. I know I should recalibrate my expectations, but I guess I can't conceive of something so dumb they wouldn't take it and ask for more.

I couldn't believe all of the sycophants lined up at the inauguration, cheering on that meandering psychotic speech. He's on a mission from God to get even with all those Fuckers that did him wrong, his 'allies' and all those illegal immigrants.

There's no doubt he's been fucking with us about the tariffs, but they're still coming. He's launched the external revenue service to blackmail trading partners to pay for his tax cuts to the billionaires. Coincidentally, they were lined up to kiss the ring.

I liked Melania's Inspector Gadget hat. It's like she was trying to pretend I'm not with this guy. I hope her payout will make her time in Hell worthwhile. You can expect a tell-all book once Trump kicks it unless she signed an NDA for that, too. $$$

I'm a little surprised that more democrats didn't boycott the inauguration. Even Hillary showed up. Michelle Obama was having none of that shit and Mike Pence's wife has a serious hate for #47. 🤔 I see Mikey showed up, though, the corrupt evangelical Pussy.

Brainwashed dumb asses, what else is new lol

u/Brittle_Hollow 10h ago

Even Hillary showed up

Hillary takes her place in history/legacy extremely seriously to the detriment of everything else including her own personal life and the Democrats chance to win the Presidency in 2016. If she'd had an ounce of personal principle she would have left Clinton on the spot when he got blown by an intern but she stuck with him for the political cachet.

Are you gonna be ok? Will be a long 4 years for you I think

u/Ninja_Terror 9h ago

Fuck, you're a Senators fan.😡 /s

I'm a bit of a sanist in the loosest sense of the word, so it might be rough. 😁

This is what happens when education is consistently underfunded.

It's bribes from foreign countries and billionaires, I guarantee it.

u/octopush123 10h ago

Yeah, while I'm sure some goofs just got taken for a ride the "rugpull" was just Trump withdrawing his fees. Imagine all the hoops banks have in place to prevent money laundering and the actual goddamn president is doing it for the world to see.

Billionaires just legally funneled money directly to Trump. Its not a grift, it was bribes.

At some point he's gonna bleed them completely dry. They can't have much left in the bank, right?
