Love that politics is just two ultranationalist parties sobbing and breathlessly accusing the other party of being insufficiently nationalist.

I could be sitting in a small coastal town in Ireland but noooo I had to be born in America and poor, so my chances of getting outta here are slim to none.

Apparently there's a huge housing crisis in Ireland

To be fair to @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net if you want a dilapidated house in a tiny coastal town in Ireland you can get it for a reasonable sum.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

part of that bargain is your best friend breaks up with you and chokes your donkey to death with his severed fingers, so it's not all sunshine and rainbows in Eire

I feel like this is a reference to something I'm not picking up on

[-] Moss@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Don't worry I grew up in a small coastal town in Ireland and its purely miserable

Imagine if Trump flees to live in exile in the DPRK, if he loses the election sicko-wistful

[-] alcoholicorn@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Flying to Cuba with a plane full of gold bullion the day before the jury deliberates would be the funniest outcome.

[-] GrumpigPoopBalls@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

guaido the DPRK recognizes the American Front for Democratic Liberation led by president-in-exile Donald J Trump as the legitimate government of the United States following widespread irregularities in the 2024 election

Just flee the country my man and go somewhere that gives the USA the finger when it comes to extradition.

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

Him still winning the election while being on the lam would be the funniest shit ever.

[-] silent_water@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

finally, a funnier outcome than him winning from jail

We could have our very own exiled government complete with president in Trump in that ex-pat village in Moscow. Sort of like those dorks who tried to do it with China.

[-] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Trump is going to create his goverment in exile in the DPRK. MAGA Communism will win very-smart

[-] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

The US government in exile, with president Trump running the country from his location, while Democrats and Republicans fight over biden-alert and ron-soy declaring themselves interim president. guaido

jesus, listening to the clip the actual phrasing is:

“I could have been relaxing at Mar-a-Lago or in the south of France ― which I would prefer being in this country, frankly.”

honestly, it sounds more like he's saying he would prefer being in this country [the US] rathern than be in the south of france. it absolutely sounds like a quick shout out to the USA in the middle of bragging about how he could have been living large instead of punishing himself with public service... which seems to be 90% of his messaging lately.

even the author leaves wiggle room about its interpretation before linking a tweet misquoting him and then tons of quote tweets of that tweet. what a nothing burger of an article.

Nice try huffpost but we know his fans don't care.

NotJustBikes is gaining following.

Over half of millennials, and something like 1/3d of all Americans, aspire to move abroad.

Haha nice, simple, effective, true.

It's satire. People that like this shit are the subject matter of the joke.

It's wild how many liberals walk in here, see hexbear users mocking liberals, and then completely miss the point.

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Are they a hapless liberal? Or are they pretending to be to further the bit?

The world may never know

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

If they're not from hexbear or grad I typically assume: No.
