American Politics XV: Trump and '24 Already....

[Cannot think of a name]

Trump has released trading cards depicting "his greatest successes". You can buy one for the cheap price of 99 USD.

Do note that they are digital, so you do not even get something you can burn.

Yuppers.

Still. Even if there were physical cards. They aren’t worth getting so burning is not an option.

Having said that? There will be many morons who will buy them.

But he donated his salary so...something.

[Bravrudnia]

I feel like not enough people are talking about the fact that former President Donald J. Trump described his own Presidency as better than Lincoln and better than Washington. This is an irrational statement unsupported by his presidential record.

I bet 50 bucks that the motherfucker didn’t know what an NFT was before somebody told him he can make a grift off it

I'm willing to bet he still doesn't.

Search "Collect Trump Cards", go to this website, and watch the video on the front page. May have changed since I last watched it. But yeah, he self-described as better than Lincoln and better than Washington.

Him being his own ridiculous hype man with no sense of scope is hardly man bites dog. Seems like a normal Thursday for him. So...what is there to talk about really? "Trump continues to overestimate himself shocker?"

I feel like this represents a new low, even for him.

Eh. He's compared himself to Lincoln before. Often even. If you want people to talk about it it's gonna have to be you. Dude's not president anymore, he has to reach harder to be newsworthy.

No, really, "Trump foments insurrection in an effort to block the legitimate transfer of power" is way lower than "Trump's a narcissistic blowhard".

A low in rhetoric is different than a low in behavior. To me, the worst thing he ever did was separate children from their parents. Whatever you think about immigration, I can't think of anything eviler than that.

Trying to rank all the bad things Trump has done seems like a pointless exercise.

I mean, leaving aside that the fomenting insurrection was rhetoric — it's not like Trump was going to risk his own lardass smashing cops with fire extinguishers... there's a wide variety of racist, misogynist, and actually damaging rhetoric to choose from before you get to "he compared himself favorably to a couple of his predecessors".

Trump continuously implies he is the Second Coming. He said that he’s the “King of the Jews” while denouncing American Jews as traitors, that he’s the only person comparable to Jesus, that he’s done more for Christianity than anyone else, that Jesus was the only person more influential/beloved than him, that he was sent from heaven/by God, that he is the most honest/perfect person ever, and on innumerable occasions, that he’s the Chosen One. Lincoln was, by all accounts, just a guy with guts and ideals that ended up in office at at a big moment. Claiming to be God though? Granted, Trump is probably not actually religious and it’s just meaningless ego inflation to him, but it is difficult to say something more outrageous in terms of narcissistic boasting.

His utterances are consistently unmoored from facts or logic. Everything the defeated, disgraced former president says is calculated to serve his momentary interest and nothing else. He can, and has, contradicted himself multiple times without drawing breath. Every word out of the man's mouth is a lie, including "and" and "the."

[Umeria]

Every word out of the man's mouth is a lie, including "and" and "the."

Now we just have to get Trump to say "this statement is false"

He probably thinks he's the most humble president, too.

Trump seems like the kind of guy to hear The Lonely Island's I'm So Humble and think "wow, that perfectly describes me!"

I know that we love to bash trump around here, but why do you bring up his body at any moment you can?

Probably, lol.

PR Status Bill passes 233-191 with some GOP support, now goes to Senate

How likely is this to pass the senate?

Probably likely. There’s at least 7 republicans who support it.
