No way did trump say that!
… Donald Trump posted on his social media platform in all caps that “I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE CHARGES ARE IN THIS RIGGED CASE.”
“I AM ENTITLED TO SPECIFICITY JUST LIKE ANYONE ELSE,” he wrote.
Maybe you should have stayed awake instead of farting yourself to sleep every day.
The post comes after Trump watched Judge Merchan spend over an hour instructing the jury on the law and specific charges in the case…
😙🤌
They should ask him what he thinks he’s on trial for—he might confess to something that hasn’t even been uncovered yet.
“Ask your lawyer”
I don’t even have a lawyer that can beat these charges. I am entitled to a lawyer who can beat these charges.
Honest question. How did we get here? How are we discussing the very real world situation where an elderly sex offender who probably won’t see a jail, (but absolutely would if he had been just some nobody) is running for president, again…
Against another elderly man, whom everybody seems to dislike but everybody is going to vote for again because the other guy is even worse.
Both candidates very well could die in the next 4 years, and the stress of the job dramatically increases those odds.
Biden is older at 81, while trump is 77 (according to google), but Biden is much more physically healthy, whereas if Weeble-Wobbles wanted to make a trump liscensed Weeble-Wobble they wouldn’t need to make a new body shape for them. Just use the existing shape.
How did we get here? How did we get to the point where everything sucks, everybody knows it sucks, but we’re just supposed to along with it…and we do!
So now we get to watch as a clearly mentally incomplete elderly man falls asleep, and farts in the court room. I’m unclear if its illegal to do that, but you have to imagine whomever the judge was had to be offended at the very least. With anyone else, I’d say it’s a bad idea to piss off the judge of your case. In this case though, I’m not sure it matters. He doesn’t face responsibility for anything. He doesn’t care. This is all a mockery to him.
HOW DID WE GET HERE???
Heavy oppression of the poor through underfunded education and social systems, coupled with propagandist media preying on their fear of the unfamiliar while blaming their oppression on the Democrats’ desire to help everyone but them. Like it or not, many of them are the victims, not the problem.
If it makes you feel better the UKs only been in election season for a week and we’ve already seen 2 different attempts at election interferance by the current ruling party.
Doesn’t so much make me feel “better” as makes my sadness cover more ground. Like “Oh shit! This bullshit isn’t an Americzn thing? It’s just a human thing???”
I was joking to myself earlier that if Earth were a Lemmy instance, I’d register on a different instsnce.
Mother Teresa was a super fucked up individual, though. I’m not sure she’s really suitable for use as a benchmark.
She rose to fame on the suffering of others. Trump and her have more in common than most would think.
She also took in who-knows-how-much in donations to charity claiming they would be used to help the stick and the poor, but instead just gave that money directly to the Vatican who proceeded to do fuck all to the benefit of anybody with it except themselves.
Oh but that sweet donation gave her a nice shiny sainthood post mortem.
Too bad I don’t believe in hell so I could wish she would roast there. Instead the Church’s PR made her name synonymous with selflessly caring for the poor.
Cruel, but fair.
It’s actually a pretty good analogy.
She was a huge hypocrite for telling suffering patients that pain brought them closer to god, while withholding pain medication and anesthetics that she then eagerly accepted when she took ill.
Trump is going to drain the swamp of criminals in the White House that are oppressing the American people.
He’s trying to set expectations for his followers.
Like how he’s insisting that Biden is some insane genius at debating, so when Trump is scored as losing debates by pundits it won’t sting as much.
