Conservatism is a mental disorder.

[-] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 11 points 7 hours ago

The kakistocracy continues to worsen.

[-] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago

So much for not liking losers. I guess if you're fascist enough pedo Trump will make an exception.

[-] jaemo@sh.itjust.works 2 points 56 minutes ago

Morcheeba dropped a banger about this phenomenon some years ago

[-] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 229 points 20 hours ago

you know, I have got to hand it to trump, he's really impressed me. I think we all owe him a bit of grudging respect. we constantly put him down, day after day, but here he is. not only consistently showing up, despite his decrepit appearance, but proving once again that he absolutely CAN do something even stupider than what he did the day before. this sort of exponential stupidity takes effort, ladies and gents.

[-] Zephorah@discuss.online 40 points 17 hours ago

The guy once stated that he doesn’t really feel his personality has changed since the first grade. This was probably one of his more honest statements.

It’s not effort or work you are seeing. It’s a child’s guile wrapped in an adult’s body.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 68 points 19 hours ago

Plot twist. It doesn't take effort. It just comes natural.

[-] thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 31 points 19 hours ago

when your a star, they just let you do it

[-] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 7 points 16 hours ago

My new brain canon is now that he somehow said the wrong "your" because that seems on brand

[-] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 7 points 18 hours ago

Keep that statement saved. You'll need it again soon.

[-] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 6 points 18 hours ago

yeah, like tomorrow

PAUL BROTHERS TOUCHED

[-] Paranoidfactoid@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

TOTAL RATINGS DISASTER

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 18 points 16 hours ago

What a competent man trump is. He'll rape your daughter and then endorse Paul in the same day. I think trump should enter the ring against Anthony Joshua just like Paul did and every non-abusing father should get a front row seat.

[-] FoolishObserver@lemmy.world 46 points 20 hours ago

There's gonna be a fight during the White House UFC event where the winner gets a cabinet position, isn't there?...

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 19 points 19 hours ago

The new ballroom doubles as a ring.

[-] eddie@feddit.online 32 points 20 hours ago

another classic example of qualified political leadership who came from the disney-channel-child-actor=to-us-political-official pipeline

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 19 points 19 hours ago

The paul brothers came from the disney channel?

Damn. I thought they started as youtube vloggers that pissed on a japanese grave or some shit.

[-] brosaph@lemmy.world 14 points 18 hours ago

Pretty sure Logan uploaded a video showing a dead body in the suicide forest

[-] digitalFatteh@lemmy.ca 25 points 19 hours ago

Odd that the Paul brothers like hanging out with child fuckers, traffickers and molesters amongst other people with the Republican Party.

Guess they just enjoy the like minded company …

[-] xerxes@piefed.social 22 points 19 hours ago

It turns out "idiocracy" is actually a documentary.

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 31 points 18 hours ago

President Camacho

I would vote for this man over Trump in a heartbeat!

[-] Soulphite@reddthat.com 15 points 16 hours ago

Camacho definitely understood there was a problem, sought after someone much smarter to help solve it. Can't say any politician today would be humbled to do something like that.

[-] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago

Camacho actually cared about his people and did his best to help.

[-] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 15 points 18 hours ago

I'd honestly prefer that scenario to our current one. At least they were just stupid and not cartoonishly evil.

[-] NekoKoneko@lemmy.world 20 points 17 hours ago

It's been said many times, but to say it a different way: the government and Camacho in Idiocracy were much much better, since they immediately elevated the smartest person they could find to a cabinet-level post and accepted help rather than just lied about the problem.

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 11 points 17 hours ago

Don't Look Up is more fitting as a documentary of our times. In lots of ways.

[-] MBech@feddit.dk 6 points 12 hours ago

Fucking infuriating movie. Not because it's bad, but because it is so fucking spot on about every single political issue in USA (and to a lesser extend, but still fitting, the rest of the world). I know it's a metaphor for climate change, but every single political issue in USA is dealt with just as moronically as climate change.

[-] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 1 points 13 minutes ago

Yeah, I mean it was most overtly a commentary on climate change, but to a great extent it really was about the problems with current politics.

I'm right there with you, it was infuriating, and absolutely right, and great, so now what do I do?

[-] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 1 points 18 hours ago
[-] gary215@thelemmy.club 25 points 20 hours ago

Of course he would, he only picks the best of the scum of the USA. He's proven that point over and over again.

[-] Ilixtze@lemmy.ml 10 points 20 hours ago

Senator Jake Paul. America would be a hell of a lot more funny if it wasn't taking us all down with it.

[-] rem26_art@fedia.io 8 points 19 hours ago

Jake Paul will be 35 in 2032, which i guess means he could run for president that year. Mr. Beast won't be able to run till 2036.

Both of these are nightmare options

Shit, beast is going to restart USAID just to create the most morbid possible humanitarian effort (televised on CBS, of course).

Malnourished kids are going to fight in a pit over chicken bones.

[-] TwilitSky@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

You're saying we get to watch this free or we have to pay?

Unfortunately it's going to come out of our tax dollars. So a little of both.

[-] Link@rentadrunk.org 2 points 17 hours ago

You need to be a certain age to run for president in America? I understand minors but I’m talking about adults.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago
[-] Link@rentadrunk.org 1 points 17 hours ago

Is there a reason for this? Is it experience?

Because if so surely there should be an max age limit too? You shouldn’t be able to run if you are nearly 80 with dementia…

[-] TwilitSky@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Old people set the ages for office and for some reason they always forget the ceiling.

[-] rem26_art@fedia.io 2 points 14 hours ago

I don't really know the reason why 35 specifically. It's been that way since the Constitution was written. Maybe they felt anyone under 35 couldn't have had enough life experience to properly carry out the duties of office? As for why no max age limit, no clue there either

[-] baronvonj@piefed.social 2 points 15 hours ago

The reason is simply that the Constitution says so since the beginning.

[-] assembly@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago

It’s like we as a county are playing a game of, “locate and find the worst of humanity and put them in public office “

[-] hellfire103@lemmy.ca 6 points 19 hours ago

I need horrible things to happen to these people.

[-] Pratai@piefed.ca 2 points 17 hours ago

Idiots tend to support one another.

[-] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

And that dumbass would be better than the rest of the dipshits in the Trump cabinet.

[-] MBech@feddit.dk 2 points 12 hours ago

I'm really not convinced he would... He's just as much a piece of shit as anyone in the cabinet.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

Trump will make him king of Puerto Rico

[-] AlexLost@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

These honestly just keep getting funnier. Who will he think of next?!
