What a shit! I swear I can't be surprised and generally ignore his antics but there's always another, scummier, act.

Someone should just start putting out fake Trump articles with super-weird headlines and no-one would notice - anything is plausible with this guy.

  1. 'Trump stole Israeli artifacts from White House'
  2. ‘Trump admits that he expects servicemen to be rapists’
  3. 'Trump kicked a child in the face while campaigning in Iowa.'
  4. ‘Donald Trump just literally made the Republican race about his penis’
  5. 'Donald Trump likes rough sex with prostitutes who only have one leg.'
  6. 'Trump visited church before election day and walked out with a wooden pew under his arm and a gold alter crucifix concealed in his jacket.'
  7. 'Trump was spotted Thursday cartwheeling down Santa Monica beach in a mankini.'
  8. 'Trump just called Hillary Clinton Beelzubub, the eater of souls.'
  9. 'Donald Trump stole classified documents, stored them in his bathroom in Mar-a-Lago, then sent copies via bike courier to the Russian and Saudi embassies for a cash exchange of $2 million per page.'
  10. 'Donald Trump seen naked at 3am in Central Park humping a chihuahua.'

Challenge: 50% of these headlines are real, can you spot which ones?

1, 2, 4, 8, and 9.

3, 6, and 7 require too much physical ability to be true. 5 and 10 are both plausible, but I doubt they’d be a headline.

Congratulations, here’s your lemmy lemon! 🍋

Finally, a prize I can use!!

I’m just glad I didn’t win a lemon party.

🍋 🎉 💦 😩 🥵

Never too late!

Winner! Well done. You win a Trump Prize Pack containing a signed MAGA hat, a pack of Trump NFT cards, a genuine Trump tupee with pre-combed slick back and sides, a framed copy of his love letter to Kim Jong Un the North Korean dictator, and a McDonalds voucher for a years supply of cheese burgers. Look for it in the mail.

I assume “trump’s nft cards pack” is just a pack of low-quality printed cards that simply say “nft” somewhere on them? :)

[-] clockwork_octopus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Um, th-thanks, I guess..?

The love letter would be interesting to see, as would the nft cards, but maybe I can auction the rest. Lol
