What a beautiful message of unity from an obviously very sane, intelligent and rational man. Happy Easter

I just want to say because I see Noone else talking about it, that this Easter fell on 4/20. Not that I really care, but last year there was a bunch of people angry about Easter falling on trans day of visibility. Yet this year it falling on 4/20 (stoner day / hitlers bday) not a peep was made about it. Almost like the hate is the point.

“The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.” -- H.L.Mencken, 1920
Yay! Finally did it!!
- Crap

Just realise he's projecting and just read the capitalised words to see how he feels about himself.

He still hung up on his loss in 2020 and biden, huh

So cringe the pope died

"Laces Out! LACES OUT! LACES OUT! LACES OUT!"

Onion?
- Nope. The actual words of dear leader.
  
  I have thought this was a satirical account, so thanks for setting me straight. I don't quite know what to say.

Joke of a country

this is literally the kind of writing you would find scribbled over the walls of a serial killer's basement. the fact that a third of your country looks at that and thinks "yeah that's my guy" is really indicative of your mental health crisis.
that and having 2 mass shootings a day.

Good thing he said it's sincere! I was starting to doubt his well wishes.

This is the thing that most astonishes me about this timeline.
Even setting aside all the other issues - politics, ideology, constitutionality, the rule of law, integrity, whatever - Trump is so obviously a raving lunatic that I sincerely have no idea how anyone can possibly fail to see it. There's nothing at all aubtle or obscure about it - he's bludgeoningly obviously unhinged.
Do people actually not see that? How? Or do they see it and ignore it? Again, how?
- Because most Americans read at about a sixth grade level... And that's about the level, or lower, that he speaks on.
- They're not really paying attention to him, they're paying attention to Fox News or newsmax or whatever propaganda channel they prefer.
  And, at the end of the day they're not voting for a person, they're voting for the big three: abortion, guns, and ~~racism~~ immigration. That and "sticking it to the libs".
- Religion is a helluva drug. These people are in a cult.
- They bought the bamboozle. They're in too deep and they can admit they were wrong. So they just double down.
  
  Such a depressingly common character flaw. I wish people would just be able to admit they were wrong about things...
- It certainly takes a lot of brainworm damage to read this and go "yeah, that's our guy!". But then I've stopped being surprised by the US years ago. The level of lunacy over there is unparalleled.
- "The best defense against an unhinged world is a good party with an unhinged leader."
  Republicans, probably.
  
  Broadly, yeah. I suspect that more or less what it boils down to is that the US, even before Trump, was and is so warped by greed and corruption and built around so many lies that it's effectively insane, and that's reflected in its political leadership.
- Remember being in your early 20s and having a friend who drank a little too much or would start fights with everyone but somehow still got invited to everything?
  Because he's a really cool guy when you can have a one on one chat with them. He's just misunderstood.
  I think Trump is that friend for a portion of America.

Wife beaters? Listen, I'll welcome most anyone with open arms, but I draw the line at police officers.

He insulted Supreme Court judges? Holy shit, doesn't the US have a Contempt of Court law or something? I haven't seen something this deranged in my entire life that wasn't in a history textbook.
- He’s been mocking them almost daily. The White House posted this a couple days ago. The meeting with the El Salvador dictator was also mocking the Supreme Court.
  
  This is the shit the behaviourally challenged adolescent boys in my kids middle school would contrive.
  Aim high, USA.
  
  Well, I've blocked US political stuff, so I didn't see this. Unbelievably petty. In India, while the country is definitely fascist, it would still be very difficult to mock the court so provocatively -- even criticising SC decisions is rare, because the courts are still relatively powerful. Though I think in the US the executive appoints judges. Then it's not surprising at all.

Rants about Biden seem to dominate every comment, or "weave" about answering any question. "If we don't deport all hispanics to death camps, then Biden wins."

The stablestly genius

Trump is mentally ill. The United States is on a very dangerous place because of the Republican Party's spineless membership. They wanted to win and any cost and now threaten every American's health, wealth, and quite likely any moral highground that it had worldwide.
- Yes, he is definitely a psychopath.
  What makes it all the worse, unfortunately, is the fact that turbo-capitalism is all about these character trades: limitless greed and selfishness are the name of the game here, rather than empathy and kindness.
  That's why there are so many obvious psychopaths in high positions. If it's all about profits without consideration for anything else, these people are the perfect match.

...this is real?
- Sadly yes

I have a relative who sometimes experiences paranoid delusions. It reads a lot like this.

So if there's this 'real' shadow president that was using the autopen and running things from behind the scenes, why did this shadow president let Trump win in the first place if they're so nefarious and powerful? And where are they now?
- The problem is this is how they build that cult of personality. "See! Trump is so great even the shadow council behind Biden couldn't keep him from winning." Fascism 101: Your enemy is simultaneously infinitely powerful and horrendously weak, sometimes in the same sentence.
- Trump also uses an autopen.

"I'd just like to say...keep the hate alive. Remember...we can all burn this down together." Fake but realistic quote from Eric Trump's wife's father-in-law.

The man would rather cause human extinction than admit an error or that he is wrong

Coulda just posted the wharrgaarble macro

Dipshit needs his diaper changed.

I'm just surprised he knows the word calamitous.
- I think his autotwit (or whoever is manipulating his autotwit, maybe our real president) came up with that one.

Pathetic

Even though we have to keep in mind Title 42 restrictions due to Covid Biden deported more people than Trump.
- Why? Why do we "have to keep in mind" a relatively unrelated fact about the last president? Must we always find some "what about" to bring up when the tangerine toddler smears feces on the walls?
  
  Because there is continuity
  
  Because Trump's whole claim falls apart if Biden deported more people than him. The "keep in mind" part is just because we have to remember that it also wasn't for lack of trying and they might try to use that as a defense
