Looks like that guy on the left is humping Trumps leg.

edit: Turns out its a woman.

[–] CoffeeJunkie@lemmy.cafe 3 points 4 days ago

That's the woman. Who, ironically, couldn't adequately cover Trump's body mass. 😂

The mark of a modern Republican/fascist

So self-involved

So obnoxious of him.

If he continues ruling like that, he's going to need more floor space. :)

If it were another house, I'd recommend a statue of a small crowd of Soviet citizens heroically overwhelming a man who missed Brezhnev with a pistol. The statue should be equipped with audio, so if a visitor approaches, the audio should play and multilingual translations should run on a screen, narrating the approximate dialogue:

<bang>
you missed him
<bang>
really poor shot
<bang>
hey, let me try
<bang>
give me the gun
<bang>
you're wasting ammo, give me the damn gun
<bang>
stop resisting, I will take the gun from you now

(sadly it's based on an anecdote, no such historical event has occurred)

The whole of our reality is a fucking joke.

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 8 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Yes, but not in the way you're hoping. It's not a joke meaning "it didn't happen", but it's a joke in the way everything this chucklefuck does is a joke.

Looks like he's about to get suplexed.
