As I saw this happen I thought that this would be the take but in reality, what's he going to do? Just stand there and not help pick them up for him?

My take is he's just helping the elderly as Trump won't have the mobility to bend down and get them.

Yeah, if Kid Starver had even a shred of self respect then he would've just stood there and not picked the up.

Yes. Send an aid to get those, it's not my job to pick up your papers.

[–] NotJohnSmith@feddit.uk 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I get it, and if there was one standing next to them I'm sure he would have but your natural instinct when you haven't been served on your whole life is to help someone in this situation.

I'm not a simp for him or his party but just feel he gets a pass on this one

do you think queer harmer has natural instincts?

yeah, he sees a kid eating a sandwich he'll do like roots manuva and slap the bacon out his mouth

Human nature at its finest.

I wonder if the British of the early 19th century predicted that this is how it would turn out when they decided not to press their advantage after the war of 1812 in favor of detente w the young United States

I think if they could have seen into the future they would have noted that their descendents are all rich, and that the anglo empire has continued into the 21st century, although with its capital in a different place, and said "carry on"

Is he about licking his shoes clean?

Is this real, is this how it happened??

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This is a good pic to teach "context".

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Context being that after all the posturing and theater of calling Trump the second coming of Hitler, the British poodle obediently picks up papers for him?

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

Uh...yes? That is more historical context than situational but the more info the better.
