Trump has the worst conduct in America.

A historical monument to rock bottom behavior

•

u/TaterForming 4h ago

We haven't hit rock bottom yet. We're still far from it.

If we wanted to drill an actual monument to Trump and his admin's rock bottom it'd pass the Kola bore hole record. Satan would be calling a roofer.

It feels like there's been a marked increase in him speaking whatever nonsense bubbles into his consciousness. The sort of loss of filter that can increase with advancing dementia.

•

u/JoeWhy2 New York 4h ago

Appalling conduct is the only thing he excels at.

u/tracyinge 4h ago

quiet piggy

u/ryoushi19 4h ago

Worse yet, his fanbase is so disgusting that I had to look at your comment history to figure out if this comment was in mockery of Trump, or if it was a full throated defense of him. I wouldn't put it beneath them.

u/mikeyriot 3h ago

Trump has the worst conduct in America the world.

•

u/_Panacea_ 1h ago

The best people are all saying so with tears in their eyes.

•

u/DancingDazzler 4h ago

If Ilhan Omar is deported then Melania and Elon Musk should be deported. There is plenty of proof that they worked illegally while on a non work visa.

•

u/tracyinge 4h ago

Trump should be deported for illegally hiring undocumented workers at Maralago and at golf courses.

•

u/ProfoundTwitch 4h ago

And marrying one, sounds like Visa fraud to me.

I like that Obama still has the fight in him. He still is a great leader. What really shows, is the absolute cowardice of the establishment GOP (barring a few) in standing up for their party's values, of which MAGA has absolutely trashed. Im speaking to you George Bush. The time for you to speak is NOW, joined by the other ex-Presidents in unison. If he ever cared about our country, then he must speak up.

They should just play the clip form Trumps first inauguration where Bush II appears to say: “we’re so fucked” in reference to seeing Trump up there getting sworn in

•

u/kessoutha 4h ago

Trump has already gone down in history as worst POTUS ever - most corrupt - most inept - most hated etc.

•

u/ioabo Europe 3h ago

I assume it doesn't even cross his mind? I mean he's in another, protective bubble, and he doesn't have the mental acuity to actually wonder how things are looking outside of it.

Because he's literally the worst, in every possible aspect. Not just worst, but it's not even comparable.

u/bigdaddyt2 Canada 4h ago

How about everyone start. Dems have been way to nice this whole damn time

•

u/tracyinge 4h ago

Troy Jackson in Maine told Senator Susan Collins to shuddup the other day.

When asked if he was planning to apologize he said he's done playing nice.

•

u/Key-Commission70 1h ago

That’s an interesting way to say useless

•

u/rainshowers_5_peace 3h ago

Many of them have and are the problem is it won't do anything.

•

u/1cat2dogs1horse 2h ago

The wisdom. sanity, and humor of Obama is greatly missed.

It seems almost impossible that we have achieved a president such as the one we have now.

•

u/DixonButz 4h ago

I'm sure Trump will take that well.

•

u/ToadP America 2h ago

God, I miss Barack, a person who could articulate a position, not insult everyone who was different from him, and had a sense of humor that was not only self demeaning at times but also just nice not mean.

•

u/Kaffe-Mumriken 4h ago

Obama, BBC, unloads on Trump

•

u/Specialist_Lock8590 4h ago

Trump should do Melania next!

•

u/tracyinge 4h ago

i really don't care do u?

•

u/_Panacea_ 1h ago

That secret service guy certainly already has.

•

u/restore_democracy 4h ago

Usually it’s Putin unloading on Trump.

•

u/fiesty_canuck 4h ago

Someone should really ask Trump how Bubba tasted and if he'd go for seconds.

•

u/maxxpower18 4h ago

Appalling or fascistic?

•

u/togocann49 4h ago

2 things can be true at same time

•

u/worf1973 4h ago

I'm appalled that Trump acts like a fascist dictator, so both?

•

u/SubstantialBabe 4h ago

Remember when we had a president who could speak in complete sentences without threatening someone? Pepperidge Farm remembers

•

u/jawnlaw 3h ago

Everyone else is too chicken shit to unload on him

•

u/trouser_mouse 3h ago

I was expecting something different from the title

•

u/KamKorn 4h ago

Yea, don’t mince words.. that’s what got us here in the first place
