Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

even the guys that kiss his ass also hate him, he has never learned the difference because nobody has ever really loved or trusted him

[–] Theprogressivist@lemmy.world 40 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Guy loves being praised by bots.

But what he really wants is for his dead father to hug him, pat him on the back, and tell him that he did a good job. But he'll never get that. He's always chasing that fatherly affirmation.

Cheaper than hiring a rent-a-crowd.

[–] Wytch@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

He's talking about tech bros, not us. He likes that they purchased him and give him their phony adulation. Useful idiot is easily manipulated

[–] lupusblackfur@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Useful idiot is easily ~~manipulated~~ bribed

@inclementimmigrant Here’s a flash, Donald. They still hate you, they just don’t say it to your face.

[–] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Honestly, he probably only cares about having his ass kissed. As long as that is happening, I'm sure he could give a fuck if he's hated. Might even get off on it.

[–] WatDabney@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago

I don't think it's so much that he doesn't care as that he's so enslaved to his ego and so oblivious to the whole concept of sincerity that the form of ass-kissing is enough all by itself.

The VC guys who radicalized themselves in group chats with Humpty Dumpty, Peter Thiel, and Curtis Yarvin have come to like him.

But it's because over the last decade or so their libertarianism curdled into fascism.

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I'll say it to his face. No wait, that would require being in the same room as his dirty diaper smelling ass. I'll do it with a megaphone from the next room.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Are these internet people in the computer with you now?

[–] Maiq@lemy.lol 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Barrons good with the cyber.

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

He's looks like a guy well versed in those chatrooms.

[–] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 10 points 1 month ago

"I used to hear about how people didn't like me. But now that I've fired anyone with any integrity or enough common sense to know I'll fuck them over eventually, I only hear good things."

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Homie on that White House intranet thinking we all love him

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

He certainly seems to have a robust rimjob fetish

[–] SaltySalamander@fedia.io 4 points 1 month ago

Hey Trump. Internet person here. Go fuck yourself, sans lube.

[–] kmartburrito@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Haha yeah right. The actual count of that population is literally closer to zero. I highly doubt anyone that once hated him has any less hatred, likely orders of magnitude higher.

What a dumb bitch

[–] AdamEatsAss@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Can confirm. I hated him then and still do now. The only difference is where my mouth is.

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

No, Donald, that was kicking, ck, not ss, tho I can see how you would get them confused.
