The craziest thing is that this fat New York billionaire has somehow convinced rural uneducated retards that he cares about them and to vote for him.
Thats the brilliance of it; he ran an inpopular platform intended to help the rich get richer and simultaneously fought a culture war that gained him the support of the massive, white, rural, uneducated class.
A side anecdote: I have an acquatance of a friend who is both Brown, and a Trump Supporter - I was baffled and couldn’t understand why they would support an openly racist candidate.
Well, turned out they were from a family of Old money out of Dubai and Trumps tax and business policies put in place GREATLY assisted their family real estate company. I think they tripled their revenue in 4 years, but i’m not entirely certain - I’ve just picked it up through context.
At the end of the day money talks. You could be completely against Trump’s rhetoric but I know people who held their nose and voted for him due to the breaks
Bingo. They didn’t give a flying fuck about his racist policies because they were raking it in
has somehow convinced rural uneducated retards
What a terrible way to refer to other people. I’m sure using language like this surely convinces them otherwise.
It is also much more complex than that. Some educated and otherwise intelligent people also voted for Trump.
Because he hates who they hate. Hate is a powerful motivator.
Ultimately, they’re useful idiots for each other.
Trump pandered to get the votes. The voters knew they were being pandered to, and went with it willingly. There were several interesting times where Trump tried to not be batshit crazy, and they full ass ignored him.
He’s only their messiah as long as he functions as a mirror for them to see themselves in power.
You know who else loves to use that slur with no shame? People who voted for Trump.
923 days, from doing a crime on live TV, to the police showing up.
…They haven’t even shown up yet.
See, the conservatives are absolutely right, Trump is being treated unfairly! If you or I had done that we would have been laying bloody on a cell floor after “tripping” and “falling” several times the very same day it happened. The fact that he gets to live in a mansion in palm beach until proven guilty proves without a doubt that he isn’t being treated the same way as the rest of us, which would be fair.
Well thats how privilege woks in the US, if you got the money and the right color skin you can avoid charges for literally any crime for an indefinite period. Even these upcoming trials, Im pretty sure trump will be able to push them back and avoid them till 5 or more years go by, then he’ll be way to old to put into jail or some insane right wing president will pardon him for all of it, or some insane fake judge that he appointed will drop all the charges… etc, etc, etc
I still doubt he will ever do any real jail time for all these crimes. If he does it will be a miracle.

Sadly, I agree 100%.
The best thing that could happen to Trump is for his self-entitled, piece of shit ass, to get hit by a meteor.
MOOOOOOOREEEEE!!!.gif
While I appreciate the updates, can we get accurate titles? There’s a zero percent chance Trump said “I expect an indictment in election probe.” Not nearly enough capitalization and exclamation points, and far too much correct grammar. I want to know what he actually said, then maybe add a translation in parentheses afterward.
I wonder if he threw a cheeseburger after writing it?
From what ive seen so far indictment is what rich people get instead of what regular people get when criminally charged. No arrest or jail time involved.
