Finger on the pulse again!

[-] TommySoda@lemmy.world 148 points 2 days ago

He's a narcissist and a sociopath. He literally cannot comprehend other people's perspective. If he doesn't see a benefit for himself than it's not important.

[-] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 66 points 2 days ago

You just also described most Republicans.

[-] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 24 points 2 days ago

That's why it's so easy for him to rape and murder. From his perspective it's a good thing he fucked a child.

This is why it's unfair to compare Trump to Hitler: Hitler actual cared about housing (and food) for his people.

[-] Asafum@lemmy.world 131 points 2 days ago

And as usual no MAGA will ever hear about this. :(

[-] Steve@startrek.website 19 points 1 day ago

The most frustrating part.

[-] reddig33@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

If they did hear it, they’d just excuse it.

[-] Redvenom@retrolemmy.com 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Nobody gives a fuck about housing...once they purchase their fifth house

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 60 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Full “I don’t care” mode. Any pretenses of being president of a nation is gone, he’a treating the country like a throwaway business deal. Use it up, bankrupt it, take what he wants. I’d say hooker, but at least they get paid.

[-] Insekticus@aussie.zone 23 points 1 day ago

He's got his new position as Supreme Leader of the Bored of Peace with 10s of thousands of troops, limitless funding, world-wide playground, and an array of henchmen ready to do his bidding.

It'll basically be the Wagner group on steroids. Funded by billionaires, for billionaires.

He isn't loyal to the U.S., it's just a stepping stone, and he has to make sure he collapses it from the inside out so it can't compete with his Bored of Peace army. He's counting on the U.S. military to collapse.

[-] ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.world 91 points 2 days ago

Landlord doesn't give a fuck about housing costs. Shocking!

[-] Maeve@kbin.earth 63 points 2 days ago

When he says the quiet part aloud.

[-] RaoulDook@lemmy.world 46 points 2 days ago

What he really meant was that "We (the rich) don't give a fuck about anybody else's life"

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 40 points 2 days ago

And his wording reveals that he moves so exclusively in those circles that he forgot ordinary Americans exist.

[-] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago

Forgot? He was never not filthy rich.

[-] voidsignal@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

He's been pretending. Which in the stupid US economy, is enough. "Just wish for it very very hard"

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

Absofuckinglutely. When he speaks of the economy or any other topic relating to money, he’s not speaking to the rest of us. He has absolutely no ability to speak to or for us because he is not us.

He speaks for and to the wealthy, not because he doesn’t know we don’t exist but because he doesn’t care and doesn’t need to. So when he claims the economy is booming, when he claims that affordability is only a word that his opponents made up, and when he says shit like this about housing, he’s talking to his shareholders: the wealthy who hold his power and love having him as the face that distracts us from all they continue to take from us.

[-] Soulphite@reddthat.com 54 points 2 days ago

My wife doesn't even look at me the way Mike "I don't recall" Johnson looks at that pedophile... I mean, God damn.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 34 points 1 day ago

The quiet parts are never quiet anymore

[-] manxu@piefed.social 25 points 2 days ago

Someone explain to this man the connection between affordability and housing. He may not know the two are intertwined.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Would it make any difference? He doesn't give a fuck about affordability either, and neither does anyone else he would even notice.

[-] manxu@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

For some strange reason, he seems to care about polling numbers 🙃

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago

This perfectly describes how much he lost touch with reality.

[-] RedGreenBlue@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago

I don't think he has ever touched reality.

[-] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 1 day ago

Pretty sure reality is too old for him

[-] Zier@fedia.io 2 points 1 day ago

And she filed a complaint of sexual abuse with the FBI. Which no one did anything about.

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 11 points 2 days ago

"GOP housing bill" isn't a string of words I expected to read in 2026.

[-] GoofSchmoofer@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

The contents of which will read -

"If you or your shell company owns 50+ single family homes and/or 20+ apartment buildings then you'll be able to buy 500 more of either, or a combination of both fully subsidized by the American tax payer. If you don't have any home then fuck off!"

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Cannot wait to see the Murc's Law take on this about how this is really the fault of the Democratic Party.

[-] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 days ago

Promise: EVERYTHING

Deliver: NOTHING

Blame: ~~DAD OBAMA BIDEN STAFFER CANADA SHUTDOWN SUPREME COURT~~ DEMOCRATS

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 days ago

No conflict of interest here.
