What a peek behind the curtain. He feels alone and unloved. He has the most rabid fans and people flattering him constantly and he feels none of it. I'd pity him if I didn't loathe him so much.

Oh people like him live the saddest lives imaginable. I personally know a narcissist nwith psychopathic tendencies and he actually acts a lot like trump, the midnight rants on how the world has wronged him, the weird "I cannot name a single person without immediately adding some judgement to it" like "Tom who is the greatest architect ever" and "Susan, that bitch"
He loves spending time and money on making others miserable, family included. Everything is a transaction, the guy knows no love, and gets none.
He controls his kids with money, sort of, but since the kids loathe him and can't wait to be independent and away from him, he'll lose them soon anyways. He always claims he is loved by hundreds even though nobody can stand being around him. His friends are bought as in these are people that are around whom because he pays them.
He has a clothes guy that sells him overpriced clothes, and he calls the guy a friend. The guy's literally around him only because he continuesly buys new clothes, multiple times per week
Nobody really knows how much money he has, he always claims everything is too expensive, and he constantly reminds everyone including his children on how much money he's spending on everyone and it's literally also the only one thing he has to give, the only thing he's good for: money. That is also what he'll be reminded for: money.
The life is legit sad and I'd feel bad for him if he wasnt such a giant asshole all the time to everyone. Fuck this asshole
I like the idea of a Trump statue as the Saddam Hussein statue news was very compelling when seeing it being toppled by it's citizens.
And just like Saddam's statue I hope a load of people descend on it to hit it with shoes.
I hope everything gets reversed when he’s gone. The illegal renaming of the Kennedy center, the ballroom, the gold refinishing of everything, the departments, “supreme court”, etc, etc. I just wish they had enough balls to stop them from doing illegal sh before they did it.
Reagan's bullshit wasn't reversed under Clinton. Bush's bullshit wasn't reversed under Obama. Trump's first-term bullshit wasn't reversed under Biden. America just keeps going further and further down the toilet. The only option for the rest of humanity is to keep America's collapse contained.
Nice generalizations. But if you can’t list anything specific that’s as petty as the Trump-Epstein center or the Trump-Epstein ballroom or the gulf of Epstein, or come up with as huge a list as we can for the current administration, your attempt at “both sides same” falls flat.
Like it or not the current administration is historical. The flood of bs is unprecedented. The self-aggrandizement and profiting off the government has never been done by any party at any level approaching what we see today.
That isn’t what they were saying at all. The first person said they hoped that the bad shit would be undone by the next adminstration and the person you responded to mentioned past examples where new administrations did not do a lot, if anything, to undo awful policy. They didn’t say that the Democrats were just as bad but they rightly pointed out that said party doesn’t really put a lot of effort into fixing what was broken.
They don't even have the balls to fix it after he's gone!! You had four fucking years to address the massive failures of rule of law baked right into your country and "y'all" did fucking NOTHING.
Nah they’ll rename it. They won’t fix anything substantial. But a rename, that’s easily within their wheelhouse.
Who needs tax dollars when you can just waste it on vanity projects
at the end of the day that is tax dollars.
How about a monumental guillotine?
How about a functional one
We could bait it with a gold plated bowl of veggies, call it a “peas prize”
I'm picturing something like that big mousetrap at the end of Fivel Goes West.
Instead of being President he is busy building monuments to himself. Garbage administration.
What has he ever done that shows he has any desire (or ability) to lead?
But he was such a good leader on that reality TV show!
LOL. No matter what happens in American politics, one thing is assured: when Trump is gone, and there's no longer any benefit to covering up his many crimes, he will be remembered as one of the worst people in history.
It might take all the assholes that voted for him dying too.
I'm remembering him like that right now.
Didn't work for Ronnie Raygun. I'm still seeing stuff named after that asshole. Up until at least W, he was easily the worst president in living memory anyway.
Nancy Reagan and her psychic were running the country
That's not true at all.
It was an astrologist.

I don't believe in the "great man" theory of history, but an awful lot of bullshit does seem to line up with that one guy
The conservative wrecking ball that led to where we are now really starting swinging under Ronnie Raygun. Of course, it wasn't just due to him, but those around him.
He also had the most criminal administration, going by the number of criminal indictments in his admin. We'll see where Taco lands, I guess.

Well, I'll be damned. He actually got something right.
He's also right about the fact that smart people don't like him and about the fact that he shouldn't be president if he's not as talented as Jimmy Kimmel

I highly doubt it's finished at the end of his term.
It might not be a pile of rubble, but if there's anything there it's going to be flimsy cardboard not up to code and needs to be torn down anyways.

He's not being self aware at all, he's just whining. It's a justification for a decision he's already made.
"We have to do it because nobody else will". That's probably the same logic he used to put his name on the Kennedy Center, or his picture on all of his buildings. Doesn't he want to put his face on a quarter? And Mt Rushmore? Seems to me we're being forced to memorialize him everywhere.
That’s always been his biggest skill - no shame about putting his name and face everywhere.

Destroyed with next admin.
Would need to be completed for that
I'll build him a monument... well, it'd be more of an effigy, but close enough.
I'm pretty sure there are plenty of us who will build a monument to him. A monumental shit on his grave.
If I knew where reagans grave was, I'd load up on fiber and spaghetti. I want it forcefully expelled from my bowels as an almost liquid consistancy. I want to spray it, so you can't really remove it. I want to power wash his grave with my butt juice.
