Americans seriously forgot about 2016-2020 when Trump spent most of his time bitching and not doing shit?

Welcome back to the suck Americans.

[–] [email protected] 91 points 3 weeks ago

He spent most of his time destroying the system and taking bribes. He's not going to miss this time imo

[–] [email protected] 45 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

That's not true. He worked real hard to take 1 stroke off his game. You should have seen his short game before the presidency.

Man, I really wish I had a meseeks box right about now.

"Shield Luigi Mangione from the law."

But how many Mr. Meskeeks did it take?

Last time he was president we had arsonists fly in from red states to start fires during Red Flag days to “own the libs”. This isn’t conspiracy shit, the went to jail and everything. Republicans love terrorism.

Nuh, uh… Fox News always reported he only did the greatest things.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

He didn’t do shit because there were still people preventing him from implementing most of his crazy asshattery of an agenda and he distracted himself with TV, McD’s, Tweeting, Golf, and finding ways to make himself richer by ripping off the taxpayer.

Now the talibangelicals control all 3 branches of the government at the top level and some of the people that were able to hit the brakes last time are gone. We can only hope he’s as ineffective.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

They controlled all three last time as well.

This is how Canadians have always behaved - selflessly, neighbourly, and supportive. Like the founding of the UN peacekeepers, like the RCMP teaching emerging democracies how to police, like the democratic observers reporting on the fairness of elections around the developing world.

Until L'il PP takes over. Then we'll just be another belligerent cuntry only looking out for whatever is percived as best for the Canadian guillotine class.

Just like 'Murica under Herr Drumpf.

americans are a disgrace.

dont pretend they are not. twice they voted orange dumbo. that makes them a disgrace just like germans in the 1930s/40s/...

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago

It's been said that the election of facists is driven by the failure and corruption of liberal democratic governments. But in this case it was partly caused by the appointment of the conservative Merrick Garland as AG and the emergence of overt propaganda networks. A felon skated through an Election cycle because of no enforcement of the law and a lack of public awareness of how guilty that felon was.

Uhh it is way worse than that. Private American citizens funded the Nazi party. After the Nazi rose to power and approached the US and other European countries about taking the Jews these same private citizens lobbied against allowing Jews refuge.

American citizens created the problem, refused Jews safe passage and the eventually joined the war killing a shit ton of civilians. That clearly makes us the good guys.

Seriously though, we might as well be called the United States of Genocide.

Thank You, Canada!!

A pair of Quebec water bombers and their crews are in California helping fight the massive wildfires tearing through the Los Angeles area.

Stéphane Caron of Quebec’s forest fire protection agency — SOPFEU — says the two planes are sent to the U.S. each fall as part of an annual contract, the length of which was extended this year because of the emergency.

BC Wildfire Service is ready to jump in and help the fire fight against fierce wildfires raging in the Los Angeles area.

At this time, the service tells Glacier Media it has not been called upon.

You think Trump would care even if he knew that? That shitbird is probably cheering for the fire and hoping it "owns the libs."

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 weeks ago

Da Canadians is droppin chem trails!?¡ Invade!!

At least that's what I'm imagining is going to happen, 5g style....

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

I feel like Trump is pulling this shit because otherwise he'd actually have to govern.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

Well yeah. We've known he's a disgrace for the entirety of his life.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

He's a disgrace.

Trump hasn't been sworn in yet...I mean, unless the point here is "he should be focused on this other thing"...

[–] explodicle 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The point is "don't troll the people who are helping us". It doesn't depend on him being sworn in.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

Ohh OK, that slipped right past me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

And then one of the two planes is currently in repair because of a dumbass who's flying a drone where they shouldn't.
