Donald Trump has warned the ‘crazy b******s’ in Iran to open up the Strait of Hormuz in a foul-mouthed social media post on Easter Sunday.

I'm ok with the fascism, reduction of our rights, human trafficking, pedophilia, rape, forced deportations, economic wars against our allies, bombing of civilians, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and bigotry against anyone that is not a cis het white man, but I draw a line at an American President cursing on Easter Sunday.

Jesus didn't rise from the dead for a dumb pedophile to curse for the entire world to observe. Ridiculous!

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 30 points 2 weeks ago

That's right, Jesus did it to find those DEI eggs.

Remember when everyone turned on Howard Dean because he yelled weird?

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 37 points 2 weeks ago

Yes and that was a moment of genuine excitement, however unbecoming of a candidate. It torpedoed his character, and career. Absolute farce tbh.

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 22 points 2 weeks ago

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Yyyeeeee-aaaahhh!!!

Trump really killed political comedy in the US. Comedians don't even have to change anything. The guy just says the things that used to made fun of. I remember how that journalist said he was working on an exposé for months, and Trump just tweets it out.

[–] toiletobserver@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

I'm enjoying the Jon Stewart approach. Describing totally normal things you'd expect from a president, followed by j/k roll the tape of insanity.

[–] Zirconium@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

Remember all conservatives have against democratic presidents is gas prices

I really liked that dude. Wonder if he's still yelling weird things these days.

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

He's also credited with somewhat pioneering modern day grassroots fundraising, where seeking a million $10 donations from average dudes is prioritized over courting a million dollar check from a single entity.

Also they didn't clap for Jeb Bush 🤣

Here we are, in a strange world where I have to count fucking a*******s to find out, if the P***S said "bitches" or "bastards" in his latest social media post. Or wait, maybe he said "butchers", or perhaps "bollards"...

It's a god-damned direct quote and the distinction what the asshole in the W***e H***e exactly said is kinda important.
So why is something like this censored on a news site?

[–] Noja@sopuli.xyz 21 points 2 weeks ago

This is due to the power google news has over almost all news websites.

Found one in one of my pix that I didn't even see!

That's one interpretation... ;-)

The Lord sometimes uses imperfect tools to do His Will. The ends occasionally justify the means.

Who hasn’t fucked a few kids anyway?

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Religion and that goes hand in hand

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The end times justify the meanness?

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

Jesus is a bit of a fluid concept to these people. We just had a weekend where the zombie wizard (also known as a lich) reanimates himself and goes around spooking people for a couple of days before skedaddling on up to heaven or something. He'll be back though. They've got a book written by a dude that obviously was schizophrenic that describes the future and the conditions required for it to happen as if they can tickle it into existence and Jesus will come back. I think they can find a way to make it justified

Pre-frontal dementia has, as one symptom, a loss of inhibition. Depending on which side of the brain the rot is worse in, it can also lead to increasingly incoherent speech as it progresses, as well as worsening ability to recall words.

The USA allowed this [paedo, rapist] knob head to take it to war. Amazing.

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 26 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But they were so concerned about Gaza, don't you get it? Both parties are equally bad or something.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

The left kept telling you that you would lose if you kept supporting genocide. People who voted for Harris told you this. Centrists wanted genocide so badly that they were willing to get trump rather than tell netanyahu no.

I'm so proud of our president. A great diplomat and a great public speaker. The world is such a better place without him being fucking dead like he should be

Art of the Deal, folks!

Plot twist. It was Pete Hegseth posting it

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It was someone. Theres something not right about the " fuckin' "

Anyone ever seen him use an apostrophe like that before? Maybe he has idk i dont follow him religiously just see screenshots.

[–] barnacul@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

He's not writing his tweets anymore. Em dashes started to appear earlier this year

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 26 points 2 weeks ago

Ehem: Donald "Hussein" Trump

Every accusation a confession.

[–] Eddbopkins@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It's the art of the deal to make threats, drop bombs, and kill children?

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 21 points 2 weeks ago

Keep his blood pressure high. Any day now.

Maybe he meant Allan. Praise be to Allan.

No, I'm pretty sure it's Steve.
