I hope everyone involved in this dies screaming. In minecraft.

Two Sweaty men GRABBING each other? That's ILLEGAL according to Mike Lee's Pornography bill!

[–] Plurrbear@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

That’s what I am saying…

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Do you think women in attendance will have to wear burqas or is that not coming down the pipe until next year?

The man had had money, high class peers, and has traveled the world his whole life. How is he more white trash than the Trailer Park Boys?

[–] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Are we finally getting the Musk v. Zuckerberg fight we were promised so long ago?

[–] Plurrbear@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Wouldn’t this be considered “illegal” under new bills?!

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 111 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Very nice.

How about those Epstein files?

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

This should be something to help take his mind off those for awhile.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 83 points 1 week ago (1 children)

10 years back this would've been a sketch on SNL.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

you mean just before the trump run for presidency?

[–] KarlHungus42@lemmy.world 61 points 1 week ago

It took a lot less time for Idiocracy to come to fruition than I expected. What a fucking clown show.

Try living here. It's like being trapped in a trashy micro-budget reality TV show about a demented pedophile turning the entire country into the most embarrassing laughingstock on the planet and the smoothed-brained dipshits who love him for it.

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

It is the Century of American Humiliation. At least I hope it only lasts a century.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Yup.

A nation of dimwits and losers.

And we're going to find out what happens to stupid countries over the next few years.

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Actual idiocracy with a mental illness epidemic.

[–] huppakee@feddit.nl 17 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Don't forget all the fascism.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

And the fox news. Hey rest of the english-speaking world, notice your right wing media getting bigger?

what a coincidence

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

The fascism is a symptom of the mental illness; narcissism and empathetic deficiency coupled with stupidity.

[–] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 48 points 1 week ago

Can we buy advertising space on the canvas?

How much would it cost to have Release the Epstein Files all over the octagon?

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The White Trash House. I bet they'll pull out couches on the lawn to watch it.

[–] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 23 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I don't think Vance pulls out.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Ah, yes, I forgot. Probably the only reason they haven't put their couches on the lawn yet, is that they don't want the public to see JD fucking them.

[–] catchy_name@feddit.it 17 points 1 week ago

Already done in the movie “Idiocracy” which seems to have done a solid job of predicting the future.

[–] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Arrest this orange prick, how much more will Americans lay down and take as this traitor rapes our children, women, and country?! Fuck this ruZZian piece of garbage named trump!

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Trump needs to stand before the judges at Nuremberg, and that's honestly being kind to him

[–] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Is it going to be a death match between Trump and Biden? I'd pay to watch that.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 14 points 1 week ago

We should normalize bullying politicians again. https://mymodernmet.com/la-tonca-trento/

[–] Jackusflackus@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

I’d rather see Trump vs Putin. Make it a fight to the death. Would be nice to get rid of atleast 1 of them.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 week ago

That fight would end up with trump's face permanently stuck around putin's crotch.

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 7 points 1 week ago

Only if the winner also dies.

[–] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Putin was a Judo champion 30 years ago. I betting on him to win that one.

[–] QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Kind of? It’s like Tate’s”World Championship” title in kickboxing in that “the world” was not actually the world

[–] huppakee@feddit.nl 5 points 1 week ago

Even someone who won a local championship 40 years ago would likely win against Trump though, especially if they are forced to play by the rules.

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Can’t wait for the Gathering of the Juggalos in the rose garden.

[–] Tujio@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Nah, Violent J endorsed Harris.

They'll do a knockoff Gathering, but with KISS fans, because Gene Simmons is a POS.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

He is, but I think after trump dissed him he isn’t as big of a trumper as before.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Rose garden was paved over, remember?

[–] kikutwo@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Way to keep it classy Orangetard

Don’t engage in ableism while calling out Trump’s classlessness please.

[–] rustyfish@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Time for James Cameron to raise the bar.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Who cares about a stupid publicity stunt pfff

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 3 points 1 week ago

Two men enter, one man leaves!
