There is nothing strange about old people forgeting things.

There is something absolutely heinous about people who rape children.

Stay focused.

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 days ago

He's, unfit to lead for two reasons. But the Republicans in my country support him for both reasons.

Pretty fucked up.

Trump, pedophile, forgot a fact a kindergartener would know

[-] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 days ago

He's been too busy to knowledge-sync with the kindergartners lately 😤

[-] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl 2 points 2 days ago

let's be honest.. he can't count to 7

[-] leftthegroup@lemmings.world 1 points 2 days ago

He can't read.

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 53 points 3 days ago

Ironic. The Daily Beast sidebar:

(The ocean he forgot was the Atlantic.)

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago

He was pretty imprecise with his language. He needed to be more Pacific.

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

Could have been either one, I suppose. Did he mean the Atlantic separating us from Europe or the Pacific separating us from Russia. As is always the case with his babbling, it's not entirely clear what he was trying to say.

[-] chaogomu@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

I'd say the Arctic might be more fitting than the Pacific for separating the US from Russia... But then I know the names of the oceans.

[-] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago

he should have just called it the pond.. where he belongs at the bottom of (cause we all know he can't swim without floaties)

It's an older meme, sir, but it checks out.

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

Release the Trump/Epstein files

[-] leftthegroup@lemmings.world 4 points 2 days ago

Please, before he's executed or dies. My soul needs him to experience the opposite of everything he loves. Having that fact finally put to rest so that (the least-deluded cultists anyway- face it we all know that the cult will just say "fake news" to any credible evidence that points to him doing anything bad at all, no matter how concrete and solid any proof is) people will finally start seeing him.

I need him to experience bankruptcy, open mockery by everyone in eyesight (not that he probably has much of that), and get raped. Preferably at the same time. His final moments should be him getting fucked by some object (I wouldn't wish it in as person lol) that says "made in Mexico" or "made in El Salvador" or even "made in Russia" while being pointed at and laughed at by a huge crowd (aka bigger crowd than his biggest rally) while being served some kind of financial woe papers. His kids in attendance as well, with Melania roasting beside him.

Unless some huge conspiracy comes out that she is the ultimate victim of some uber traffic plot. I don't know enough about her to say, but I'm fairly sure so far that she's deserving of this treatment as well.

I knew it started with an 'A'!

[-] troybot@midwest.social 27 points 3 days ago

This leads me to think renaming the Gulf of Mexico was because he couldn't remember the real name and everyone in the room went along with it

[-] El_Scapacabra@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Or someone corrected him, so naturally, he doubled down by writing "GULF OF MEXICO" on the map with a sharpie.

The headline I look for every day.

[-] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Same, I’m not a drinker but the day this happens I’m gonna get shit faced.

[-] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I will get drunk and high while pretending I am Ricky from Trailer Park Boys.

[-] Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

That sounds like a fun time, just don't mess up your brain compartments and departments.

[-] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago

naw.. I keep everything neatly bottled up in my modelo ablongata

[-] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

The Gulf of Dementia?

[-] Redditsux@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago

Ummm Indian ocean? There's no India there. French Ocean? That's not right. Let's call it American Ocean!

[-] griff@lemmings.world 6 points 3 days ago

stable beyond belief

[-] spongebue@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Don't all oceans except maybe Indian touch the US or one of its territories? They're all Ocean of America now.

[-] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

The One Big Beautiful Obituary is coming.

Wandering around. Forgetting things. Now he's talking about getting into heaven.

[-] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 9 points 3 days ago

Waiting for Google to bend over and rename the ocean to appease the diaper dictator.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

is this a joke? what is it based on? there's no way he forgot the name of the ocean.

I'm certain he didn't know it in the first place.

[-] graycube@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

It is a "big beautiful" ocean.

[-] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 2 points 3 days ago

Why do we think it was only the one though?

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

Do you know how many damn fucking oceans there are? Did you know the earth is mostly water? Why would he memorize every oceans name? He's not a fucking cartographer!

[-] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

You can't forget what you never knew in the first place.
