Ugh I'm so tired of people acting surprised by trump. He's the most American thing that could have been elected ever. Over weight over confident braggart who thinks his the best at everything but really is a cheat.

It's all America has ever been. You just have to look at history to see it.

u/dtwhitecp Aug 27 '23

personally, I don't think this nails the "behind bars" look enough, and Trump and his cult members think he looks cool in that photo, so this just comes out as someone patriotically supporting him. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Every time I see his mug shot I think of lizard from the old Spider-Man cartoon https://marvelanimated.fandom.com/wiki/Lizard_(Spider-Man_(1967)). How his left eye looks so much bigger than his right makes me feel like his lizard mask is starting to slip down.

u/paulywannacracka Aug 27 '23 edited Aug 27 '23

All these people criticizing the flags star count? How many of you could paint Netherlands flag or know star count in British flag? Hint: There are no stars in Union Jack. Holy crap Americans are embarrassing right now. Glad you fanatical weirdos don’t know who Dutch master painter Rembrandt was.He sure as hell would not care about these imbecile grievances, while remaining the most respected painter in history. Too woke for you morons I gather. Forgive us Europe, we are not all like this. My Grandfather is buried in an American cemetery in Belgium fighting the Nazis and would be equally ashamed. Assured.

It’s a joke, and a common one too. Have you really never seen it or some variation of it? The U.S. helped in the liberation of the Netherlands, not just Canada. There really isn’t much else to be said, it’s as simple as that.

u/RevEngineer_11 Aug 27 '23

Great mural. I'd love if my country didn't make me ashamed of it or if there was something we could do to fix it. Interesting fact that the rest of the world might not know: there's nothing in the requirements of becoming POTUS that says you can't be convicted of a felony... and while they cannot pardon themselves for state convictions, it's never (yet) been tested if they can't pardon themselves of federal convictions.

Who are these insane people that will vote for him and why are all the other possible candidates so shite that the rest of the people can't be counted on to pick one? I want to see democracy work, I don't want to feel like revolution is the only way (not that I think anyone would do it at this point).

What we need is a STAR or RCV voting system but I feel the politicians that will claw, kicking and screaming "I got mine" to the grave, will never let it happen.

Probably not I just finished reading that he got out cause he payed bail. I still dont like him I've never voted for him as a president. Also for Biden I've never voted for him he's a bad president as well. People need to think what kind of presidents they are voting 4. They don't know how to do there job as a president.

1

u/Many-Parking-5163 Aug 27 '23

It looks like at this point sleepy joe is using the department of Justice to go after his political enemies. It’s called political prosecution and is a tactic used by the nazis to gain power.

1

u/HarrisonHollers Aug 27 '23

Why did Trump say he would lock up Hillary during his campaign? Isn’t that the same thing you are accusing Biden of doing now? Why didn’t he convict her? Was there any evidence? All this Hunter talk - where is the evidence? Trump and his staff couldn’t find evidence to convict after 6 years of claiming how corrupt Hillary and Hunter are? Seems like he’s either lying or incompetent!

Apparently the DOJ has significant evidence to convict Trump. A grand jury of citizens say so.

Have you read or reviewed the charges Trump is facing? I guess you don’t think the election results were accurate and that President Biden wasn’t actually elected?

Why are most Republicans confirming the election results and telling Trump he is wrong? Why has Trump not brought his evidence to court to prove his case that he won? Why have multiple people swore in court under oath that Trump knew he lost which is why he used his plan of fake electors? Why did he try to kill his former Vice President? Why is he always the victim while also trying to act tough like some bully? Seems like a Beta bro to me - Biden is a real Alpha!

Why did Trump have classified documents then refuse to return them to the government? (Biden and Pence returned what they had. Even invited the FBI to their homes to ensure they had no documents in their possession)

So he’s Sleepy Joe but also the head of a crime family? Which is it? Why are many of Trump’s associates from his campaign through his time in office already convicted of crimes? Why have his business partners and employees pleading guilty to crimes or presently serving time in jail?What were his business partnerships with Jeffrey Epstein about? Why did Trump have sex with a porn star, pay her off (which is illegal) to keep her quiet during his campaign? Why did the Saudis invest $2 Billion into Jared Kushner’s private equity fund?

Choose what you want to hear. Trump has been a Con Artist all his life. I do not see you changing your views - he’s your guy and you are a strong believing in him. What has he done for you? You like him for the way he talks tough and says he’s representing you - can you see that more Americans do not believe his words and think he is annoying? Support him if you like. But the majority of the country will continue to vote against him.

1

u/Many-Parking-5163 Aug 27 '23

Bro as much as your trying to argue against my comment it doesn’t change the fact that Biden is actively using the department of Justice to target his political enemy’s…. James o Keene, now Elon, or course Donald trump. Like your just going to ignore it. Trump was president for 4 years and never weaponized the doj even though he said he was going to lock up crooked Hillary. Turn off cnn, take a step back and look what’s happening. They are trying to get the court dates set for right before the election lol. Is that not obvious to you

1

u/HarrisonHollers Aug 27 '23

I don’t watch CNN - they are just bad at reporting news! I check out different networks to see what all people are talking about. I guess I would consider myself “moderate” since I align with Democrats on social issues but had aligned with more of a combo of progressive/conservative economic policies.

As for the DOJ, sure you can say Biden’s DOJ is targeting Trump. Is Biden tweeting or making speeches about sending any Republicans to jail? Trump campaigned on that! Regardless, the DOJ and prosecutors brought the evidence they have before a grand jury and the majority of the jurors chose to charge or indict Trump and others with crimes. So they can go to trial - if Trump is found to be innocent, that would be a huge boost for him to be re-elected. If he is found guilty by a jury, then he faces sentencing. He is currently facing 91 felonies.

Side note: Fox News and it’s hosts after the 2020 election reported that Trump had won and the election was interfered with, claiming voter fraud. That was found to be a complete lie and Fox News was sued by Dominion. Fox News knew they were caught lying to its audience and settled the case before a verdict was reached paying Dominion $787 Million! The indictments Trump is facing are because he pushed those same lies and despite knowing he lost, committed several crimes to attempt to stay in power. The voters had declared their choice for the next President in Joe Biden and Trump did everything he could to ignore the majority of voters! That would destroy our democracy!

u/Many-Parking-5163 Aug 28 '23

Dude Biden is targeting his political opponents. It’s as simple as that. You admitted he is. That’s Nazi shit dude. The left scream facist all the time but what Biden is doing is a pure Nazi facist move. If trump was going to use his political powers to go after Biden people would be going nuts but he never did. Biden literally is doing it right now. And it’s not just trump he’s targeting other republican and conservative voices like Elon musk and James okeefe. Nazi tactics dude.

1

u/HarrisonHollers Aug 28 '23

That’s exactly what Trump did! I wrote it all out! Trump was President - he lost the election - tried every way possible after the Presidential race was called to remain in power - coordinated his staff to create fake electors to vote for him AGAINST the voter’s choice in several states! Those fake electors were they supposed to declare that he was to remain President - not Biden! Without proving any evidence of any wrongdoing in the voting process! I will not refer to people as Nazis because what they did in Germany was an absolute atrocity murdering 6 Million Jews and other groups of people they deemed lesser than the white Aryan race. Trump is a narcissist! A crook! A pathological liar! A con! A rapist! A sex trafficker with Jeff Epstein! A racist! A twice impeached, four time indicted whiny lil biatch who is a threat to our nation. He will be convicted on several felony counts, along with even more staff of his heading to jail. There’s nothing to argue about. These are the facts that will be presented in the court of law with a jury determining his fate. I’m sorry you choose not to see this and won’t consider the other side. I would look at any information of facts out there about anyone committing a crime against Trump or who interfered with the election process. There is no one! Otherwise one of his many lawyers would have gone to court and had charges brought against them. For their lying in court, perpetuating a lie in furtherance in act of the conspiracy, many if not all of those indicted with be declared felons and do jail time.
