As much as I want to believe this is true are there any sources that actually resemble news and not a blog from geocities?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Awww, I miss geocities. I was all over that shit in middle school.

That was a fun read. A small rejoicing in the ceaseless wheel of horrors.

I'm going to actively work "Amateurminding" into my lexicon

I look forward to Fox “news” clutching their pearls and expressing faux outrage about this column.

Time to tighten the belt by putting down the pee-pee tapes and hamberder toast

He can also save $ by making covfefe at home

He could easily pay off his debts if only he could quit avocado toast.

Ah yes, the true root cause of all financial insecurity among Americans: smearing some fruit paste on toast!

That appeals court just rejected that offer and demanded that Trump, for the first time in his life, pay the full tab. This bill comes due after another New York court ordered Trump to pay writer E. Jean Carroll another $83.3 MILLION for defaming her after she accused him of sexually assaulting her in a department store in 1996. In 2019, Trump denied Carroll’s accusation in characteristic Trump fashion, by crowing that she was “totally lying.” Well, the jury in that case found that to be, like, totally defamatory, because Trump knew what he was saying was false (and that what Carroll had said was true).

Trump is also in deep doo-doo with both the Georgia district attorney and the Department of Justice after pressuring state officials to “find” him votes in 2020 and then amateurminding the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol. Oh, and Trump’s Republican Party currently only has $8.7 million on hand.

I can only read this in the kind of voice that doesn't actually use punctuation.

This whole article is so petty. Journalism am I right

[–] [email protected] 33 points 5 months ago

Why shouldn't they be petty? Trump is a grade school level bully who calls his political opponents "losers" and "nasty people". Tit for tat.

Maybe he shouldn't have spent so much money on avocado toast and fancy covfefe.

Lots of truth in that piece.

Reminder: He lost a fucking casino! He's stupid and poor.
