In the closing ceremonies of USAs existence, the man who destroyed it will shine a light on himself as a hero.

Where are the epstein files, kiddy diddler?

Wow this is peak white trash. Is kid rock going to sing the national anthem?

[-] RhondaSandTits@lemmy.sdf.org 31 points 3 weeks ago

Kid Rock will be there to sing Fortunate Son

A true, worthy god-emperor would make it a fight to the death and compete personally.

[-] Thaurin@lemmy.world 31 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Yes, but also cheat by poisoning his gladiator slave opponent before the match.

The nonfiction version of "Idiocracy" brought to you LIVE! Stay tuned for the collapse.

[-] FaceDeer@fedia.io 33 points 3 weeks ago

As always, I must point out that president Camacho actually cared about Americans and when presented with a problem he was too stupid to solve he sought out the advice of smarter people to make use of in solving it.

President Camacho was a way better president than Trump.

[-] knatschus@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 3 weeks ago

Then let me point out that Camacho was the president at the end of the idiocracy period.

When people point to trump and idiocracy they mean he's the start of it.

Mountain Dew Camacho was a better president

[-] Blumpkinhead@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

God, he would be so preferable at this point.

Biff Tannon everybody.

[-] TuffNutzes@lemmy.world 40 points 3 weeks ago

This is what happens when Biff Tannen becomes Dear Leader.

[-] nosuchanon@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Honestly that would be an upgrade at this point.

[-] cronenthal@discuss.tchncs.de 37 points 3 weeks ago

It is so tasteless and yet so fitting. We will have an abundance of great imagery for the history books.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 34 points 3 weeks ago

Did anyone expect a low IQ felon rapist to have class?

This is what America looks like when people let the village idiots out-vote them.

Jesus Christ... We're hitting peak Idiocracy so much faster than the documentary expected.

[-] DexiMachina@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

At least Camacho had a three point plan.

What better celebration is there for Trump's America than locking people in cages?

[-] dhtseany@lemmy.ml 26 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

President Camacho approves.

[-] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

I hope it flops even harder than his stupid military birthday parade.

[-] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 23 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

The president's limo will be there on the front lawn, up on blocks with it's wheels and hood missing. A few barrels will be interspresed with fire for warmpth.

Trump will be seated on a beaten up old lawn chair, the kind that your parents had in the 70s and never got around to replacing. To his right there's a styrofoam cooler; the kind you get at a gas station when your heading out fishing with your pa. It's filled with Pabst Blue Ribbon.

Melania will put her hair up in a Peggy Bundy beehive and squeeze her aging ass into pair of daisy dukes and cowboy boots.

Joe Rogan appears and kneels before Trump before the match begins. But instead of kissing a ring, it's a beer tab.

The festivities begin with Kid Rock catterwalling out what he thinks is the national anthem, but is actually just a bunch of random lyrics he put together during the last time he blacked out.

Dean Cain is the "celebrity" referee for the match and Kevin Sorbo is there to provide some colour commentary alongside Rogan.

Due to the unpopularity of all of them, no one wants to volunteer to be the people in the match, so it eventually Trump sends ICE out to round up some homeless people and it quickly devolves into bumfights_dot_com

It'll be great!

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 11 points 3 weeks ago

I can see this now as a Street Fighter level background.

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I hate that you bring up Dean Cain and Kevin Sorbo in the same sentence.

They're actually working on some weird-ass Christian golf comedy/drama movie together, with Dean producing and Kevin starring. My brother worked on it for about a week or so.

He only agreed to it as it was a way for him to get his foot in the door for the industry, and he was a fan of the Hercules show when he was a kid. Also Lois & Clark was apparently our grandma's favorite show, so it was like this weird amalgamation of feelings when he went to work on it.

This just oozes classiness and decorum.

Hey, americans, you should deffo not be embarrassed about this. No way, not one little bit!!!

[-] klu9@piefed.social 19 points 3 weeks ago

the UFC fight {...} will involve fighter weigh-ins at the Lincoln Memorial

What next? Mandingo fights on MLK's grave?

I am surprised they did not set up a colosseum and have migrants fight to the death. Keep it tacky MAGAts.

[-] abbiistabbii 5 points 3 weeks ago

Oh that was floated as a reality TV show.

[-] Ashenlux 8 points 3 weeks ago

So he is having two people fight in a cage on his front lawn for his amusement... That definitely doesn't sound like dictator behavior.

[-] mere 7 points 3 weeks ago

Saw the title and was like 'haha funny, imagine'. Then 'wait, it's not satire??'

How much is UFC getting for this? Another giant fucking waste of money from the GOP besides being so, so tacky. I don't want to hear one fucking word ever again about how our tax money is being wasted by any Democrat. I guess these fucking assholes would rather watch some dumb apes beat the shit out of each other than feed people, sad.
