Whaaaaaat? The rapist also approves of rapists? The close to 80 year old man who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy also prefers the company of men who see women as objects to be grabbed? Why are we pretending to be shocked? He’s shit and he’ll be shit until he dies, hopefully McDonalds does its job sooner or later
I read that as “Trump defiles”
Also true
It’s not like he has much choice. Sane, reasonable people aren’t exactly raising their hands at this point and the only people clamoring for roles are batshit quasi-politicians who have similar contempt for any institution that has a basis formed in reality but wildly different agendas
Edit: dunno why you downvoted me. Honestly, who else do you think would take these positions? Pence? Kelly? Barr? Mattis? Haley? Christie? Tillerson? Milley? Bolton? Scaramucci? Cohen? DeVos? Chao? Grisham? … Bueller? Dude’s a fucking joke. Take the wooden spatula and start scraping that barrel out because there’s absolutely nothing but sludge
Oh please “saner” people than dr fuckin oz are a possibility
Saner than Oz and willing to work with Trump?
I find that hard to believe.
And those saner people handed Trump Thune instead of Scott via blind vote. They know what’s up. Like I said, sane people do not want to be in his administration. They want to babysit his administration. Nothing good comes from befriending that guy and everyone on Earth who doesn’t believe in hurricane machines knows that, even GOP.
Practically the only people who are around Trump are riding his coattails for their own reasons and they have no qualms about it
They’re obviously being picked for their deviceveness. Not really sure what the endgame is other than to spread fear, anger, and uncertainty. Some strategists is coming up with these picks for some reason.
deviceveness
Deviousness? It’s what autocorrect suggested the moment I started typing the word.
Based on the context, I think they meant “divisiveness”, but “deviousness” probably also describes the nominations well.
I I misspelled it, it should have been divisiveness, “a tendency to provoke dissension or discord”
deviousness, “The characteristic of being devious; sneakiness; underhandedness.”
It’s a way for him to test people’s loyalty. Anyone who doesn’t vote to confirm his insane picks is going to be ousted by the rest of the party.
Wait wait -
Trump thinks it’s “I was credibly accused of sexual assault! #MeToo”
Remember: a plurality of voters reinstated him, knowing fully that he has been found guilty of sexual assault in a civil case and that he openly wishes to fuck his own daughter. This is the guy who grabs women by the pussy. Why would he give a shit about women?
This abomination is brought to you by your compatriots.
So it took this guy 7 years to figure out that Trump is just as bad as all the other Hollywood rapists, and he has the audacity to present this to us as though that knowledge is breaking news in the year 2024?
And these people wonder why their industry is being replaced by podcasts.
? This is about his cabinet picks.
That venn diagram is quickly becoming a circle.
Oh my god now way…
Everyone should defy the metoo movement, what a hoax.
I think he asked, 'Who do we have with a rape investigation? Let’s go with them!" to demonstrate his misogyny to the cult.
#MeToo is why the Democratic Party lost.
Or at least it makes more sense than a lot of the other reasons I’ve heard that don’t involve the economy and low information voters.
Yes, I’m sure that was what did it and not the whole expecting people to vote for a black woman in an extremely racist patriarchy of a country thing.
Holy shit, how hard is it to tell that was sarcasm.
What is wrong with people?
At least don’t use super giant letters and make it a little more obvious you’re trying to mock the weirdos, not rally them.
Giant letters?
How does saying people who are against the #MeToo movement are all Trump supporters, not calling them weirdos? I don’t think weird goes far enough.
Sexual assault is illegal inspite of Republicans not because of them. In nany states a rape victim is legally obligated to birth their rapists child and they think that’s wonderful; Godly.
It’s not calling them weirdos in their eyes, because they really do just see “#metoo” and (without understanding what it implies) they immediately register it as “godless liberal nonsense”. It may look like unmistakable exaggerated sarcasm to you, but if you visit any of the places where they talk, the way you wrote is exactly what they sound like, except without any sarcasm.
Also, the hash symbol marks text as a header and it looks like this on my app:
So you support rape?
No, the Trump party does.
How anyone would think I agree with the statement is silly.
Well it seems multiple people interpreted it that way so you might want to work on your wording
“other reasons I’ve heard that don’t involve the economy and low information voters.”
Seems pretty obvious, lemmy is just a weird toxic place where everyone jumps at the chance to argue with any comment even though we all agree about 90% of this stuff.
/me looks at downvotes from trying to convince people to talk to Trump voters to see if they can be persuaded to, and everyone thinking I mean talk to the people who’s mind cannot be changed
Yep
Wut
