Remember folks: if we do our job right, this traitor asshole will die in prison.

Hell, I'm still holding out for his heart to explode during one of his Klan rallies.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago

Po-TAY-to, Po-TAH-to.

Either. Both!

[-] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 months ago

You misspelled firing squad.

[-] PlasticExistence@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

Firing squads have some guns that are loaded as blanks so nobody is really sure who fired the fatal shot, and in the case of Trump I think this is unfair to the people firing the guns.

[-] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 19 points 4 months ago

Even if he lose, he will never see inside of a prison, that's unfortunately not how the "justice" works.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

If Merchan was planning on giving him a slap on the wrist then there would've been no point in delaying the sentencing.

[-] match@pawb.social 5 points 4 months ago

i consider exile in Russia to be a type of prison

[-] jhymesba@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Especially self-imposed exile!

[-] DrSleepless@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

If other people do their jobs right he will.

[-] Nightwingdragon@lemmy.world 102 points 4 months ago

Anyone wanna tell him that the only reason she endorsed anyone in the first place is because Trump couldn't keep his big mouth shut? Had he not made a bunch of posts implying that Swift endorsed him, she probably would have stayed out of it.

[-] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 30 points 4 months ago

She endorsed Biden before. It wasn't really a surprise.

[-] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 26 points 4 months ago

Yeah - his campaign producing deepfaked support from her when she was busy keeping her views to herself couldn't have motivated her to correct the record. This is just the personal stuff - the ways in which his policy positions and rhetoric negatively affect her and her fans is endless.

Trump fucked around with one of the few women he has reason to respect (by his framework) - she's beautiful and wealthier than him. Now he's finding out, and holy shit is he sore about it.

[-] WhyFlip@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

Trump, you're the moron that everyone already knew you were.

[-] vegeta@lemmy.world 68 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

A formal declaration of war, and the battle with the Swifties has been engaged.

edit: another epic rant may be starting:

Unrealized tax on capital gains? That wording would mean the tax on capital gains is unrealized, not a Tax on Unrealized capital gains you stable business genius

Reverse Deportation? So you want to stop deportation and/or import people? JFC

If they are failing, seems like they would becoming less of/not a threat?

[-] eatthecake@lemmy.world 41 points 4 months ago

Hey, he's reversing the deportations!

[-] vegeta@lemmy.world 40 points 4 months ago

Breaking: Trump Encourages Illegal Immigration! As seen on the internet!

[-] eatthecake@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

Trump discourages legal migration! Said on TV!

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 22 points 4 months ago

Someone should show Trump Nextdoor. He’d fucking love that app.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

He is that app

[-] FunkyElectro@pawb.social 16 points 4 months ago

He's telling the rich to fear another great depression as if the rich didn't make fucking bank during the actual great depression.

[-] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 9 points 4 months ago

Also... the rich were the caused the great depression.

[-] IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

"The ~~boy~~ chonky fascist who cried wolf"

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 62 points 4 months ago

Compared to Trump, Taylor Swift has a lot more star power. I think he's realized that she could easily grab him by the pussy.

[-] draneceusrex@lemmy.world 56 points 4 months ago

I still think it's funny that this is being treated as a full-blown endorsement. She said she is voting for Harris, then encouraged people to be politically informed and to vote...

Oh...maybe Republicans don't want people to be politically informed or to vote...

[-] rebelsimile@sh.itjust.works 39 points 4 months ago

bruh, do you want to get a song written about you? Because this is how you get a song written about you. The song will go on looooong after you’re dead. tread lightly.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

My lady sent me a message about it, he apparently tweeted it at 7am. So she sent me her lyrics: "

You are somebody that I don't know

But you're taking shots at me like it's Patrón

And I'm just like, "Damn!

It's 7 AM"

Say it in the street, that's a knock-out

But you say it in a tweet, that's a cop-out

And I'm just like, "Hey!

Are you OK?"

"

The irony is that Trump forced Swift to speak up after the fake AI endorsement. Swift would have remained publicly neutral.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 16 points 4 months ago

Holy crap someone on tumblr legit predicted this

[-] MagicShel@programming.dev 15 points 4 months ago

Wasn't he just posting memes of her two weeks ago? lol. He's jilted.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago

What he really wanted to say was: "I am envious of Taylor Swift!"

[-] Allonzee@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

I mean, she is a real billionaire.

I just realized that there was a Phantom Space Man. It was Red Death!

He just didn't stay on the space station...

[-] giacomo@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

"Big Mad"? are they trying to dumb it down for the trump crowd or just the rolling stone readers in general?

[-] TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social 6 points 4 months ago

I'm guessing here, but sounds like a play on his "bigly" wording. He has the best words, his English professor friends all tell him!

[-] criitz@reddthat.com 10 points 4 months ago
[-] bluewing@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

While I tend to think Taylor Swift could best serve the world by simply sticking to flying her private jet down to the local 7-11 to get a carton of milk and a pint of ice cream while keeping her mouth shut, she has the right to say she will vote for Harris. And I fully support her right to make that choice and statement.

But I also firmly believe that celebrities should not use their notoriety or fame to push agendas. There are far too many easily swayed people out there who will follow the lead of famous people who espouse an idea that is dumber than cow shit simply because hey are famous - See Andrew Tate or a number of disgraced BBC reporters.

[-] myrrh@ttrpg.network 23 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

...taylor swift's public statement was a well-considered cogent refutation of false endorsements posted by the trump campaign, one which pointedly resonates your position and likely merits substantially more respect than you realise...

[-] seejur@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

I agree 100% in most cases, but in THIS particular case it's Trump that started it by sharing the AI post of Swift endorsing him.

So she definitely has the right to correct misconceptions about her public statements
