Ask the Brits and the Aussies to help with another chant

Let's create a new song for his death! Also should be a ceremony to honor and remember the people he murdered.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 4 points 7 hours ago

I think something by CeeLo Green.

[–] Firebirdie713@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 11 hours ago

Surprised no one said the obvious one. The first one is from The Wizard of Oz, only fitting that we should sing a song from the the sequel: No One Mourns the Wicked. No One Mourns the Wicked

It will be an epic party in the streets imo

Old man, you've been a lifelong clown,
I said, "Old man, get the hell out of town"
I said, "Old man, be buried under the ground"
There's no need to be unhappy

I read the news and saw that TRUMP PASSED A-WAY
Let me say again we know that TRUMP PASSED A-WAY-ay

#Future us, hopefully not too far off

We're commin' out, around the world

Moving to a brand new beat

People singin' and people playin'

And Danceing the Street

Day of judgement, god is calliiiiiiing...

As the war machine keeps crawliiiiiiing...

Begging mercies for their siiiiiiins...

Satan laughing spreads his wiiiiiiings...

Like a Storm - Wish You Hell

Bobaflex - I'm Glad You're Dead (it's about a shitty mom, but still mostly fits the theme)

[–] tomkatt@lemmy.world 20 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I won't be singing anything. I'll just be fucking relieved. But even when he dies this mess won't be over. There's a lot to dismantle, and we'll still have to deal with VP couch fucker, Thiel, the cabinet, ICE, and much more. Trump's death will be a beginning, not an end.

[–] innermachine@lemmy.world 6 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

Yea, trump is given WAY too much credit for what this administration has done. Not that he isn't an evil child fucker, but remember he's legitimately riddled with dementia and has no idea what's going on. He's somebody's puppet, and when he dies lots of crimes will be pinned on him while the evil shadow cabal continues to walk free and wreak havoc. Remember no president holds as much power as trump is given credit for, he has powerful backers that are running the show. Think about if China or russia wanted to destroy the USA without an invasion, what would it look like? Oh yea were fucking living it, the division, the stripping of human rights, the surveillance state. The GLOBAL movement toward the far right. No doubt in my mind actors foreign and domestic alike are trying to burn this place to the ground and keep us infighting instead of sorting this out.

That’s the truth. The billionaires that funded the reich wing, the troll farms, the takeover of our news and media…they’ll still be out there continuing their destruction.

Same song for the man who cries about Witch hunts.

[–] pingveno@lemmy.world 12 points 21 hours ago (4 children)

I generally do not celebrate people's deaths, on principle. Trump will be an exception. Well, except if it is by assassination, I don't want him to die a martyr.

My worry is even of the diddler had a massive heart attack the right-eingers will spin it that he was martyred and use it as an excuse to nuke Iran or push the extreme end of his agenda.

I still maintain that the people most likely to want Trump dead are the elite not the general populace. Sure he has terrible approval ratings but most people don't know how to hire an assassin. Corporations do.

Think how much money he has cost businesses, all the sanctions, the unnecessary wars, the pointless sabre rattling that has lost them contracts in Europe. The only people who are benefiting from Trump are those in scaffolding supplies who keep having to put up scaffolding all over Washington as he keeps slapping his name on everything

Uh, there are a SHITTON of people benefiting from the orange kid-fucker. MIC, his buddy fElon, cronies on the inside of his stock meddling, basically every rich person who pays less on taxes than you or me, his personal pool guy who fucked up the reflecting pool, UFC and Paramount did pretty well on that white trach birthday that fucked up the grass...

When he goes we'll still have the machine they slapped in place still there or at the very least the mess they left behind. If the next president goes into repair mode it'll probably consume the entire term at the very least.

In the meantime I have a bottle of champagne in the fridge.

That's exactly what I said during the 2020 election. If Biden won, he'd had to spend the first 2-3 trying to repair the US's reputation on the world stage and being the country back from COVID. All the while, vile shit stains like mcconell outright said they'd do everything they could to ensure it makes Biden look bad and not pass anything meaningful. His goal was to fuck over this country for the sole purpose of political points.

When Berlusconi died I offered gelato to all of the office.

We all know what they would be saying and doing if it was the other way around. They don't have beliefs, morals, or honor. Act accordingly.

Orchestras on every corner playing 'ode to joy'.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Many many songs it will be the biggest global celebration in history
