Ten-year-old nabisco offTM:

Here's something funny: when I was ten years old I had a vague admiration for Donald Trump and Lee Iacocca (both very feted at the time) and a downright intense love of Alex P. Keaton from Family Ties, who I didn't understand to be something of a joke. As such, despite having really liked Mondale -- having a woman as a running mate impressed me, probably because of the mother/father dynamic of it -- I was convinced that I wanted to be a Republican and a businessman or lawyer of some sort. In fact, I started a "company" with my friends Brian and Jeff -- we made board games, and hired Tony, the best breakdancer I have ever known, to do the art -- and I was constantly attempting to read the law and economics books in my father's library. Everyone seemed to think this was "cute," though I sort of wish someone had just explained politics to me. In either case, I got over it quickly and went back to wanting to be a writer.

i suppose 'classic' in that he's all a lot of people can think about or talk about and his brain dmamage is so powerful it's infected the world

p bad president and person tho

takes balls to rock that combover day in and out

I can see the blood from the man-flesh on his teeth!

What you lookin' at?
You all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be?
You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say,
"That's the bad guy.
" So... what that make you? Good? You're not good.
You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.
So say good night to the bad guy!
Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you.
Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way!

You certainly don't, pal, 'cause the good news is - you're fired. The bad news is - you've got, all of you've got just one week to regain your jobs starting with tonight. Starting with tonight's sit. Oh? Have I got your attention now? Good. 'Cause we're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anyone wanna see second prize? Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired. Get the picture? You laughing now? You got leads. Mitch and Murray paid good money, get their names to sell them; you can't close the leads you're given, you can't close shit. You ARE shit! Hit the bricks, pal, and beat it 'cause you are going OUT!

Search: "move on her like a bitch"

Destroy: everything else

"Trump never said he had tapes, he just inferred that he did. And it is not intimidating a witness since Comey is telling the truth and knew that any tapes would prove his version of events."

everyone is classic but not everyone should be president

President Don once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a savior machine

Trump lingered last in line for brains
And the one he got was sorta rotten and insane
Small hands (so sad!), a rust-hued clown
Is Trump fast asleep or rockin' out with Three Doors Down?

Murricuns electing Donald Trump: Classic or dud?

haven't thought about this guy for a while. i think he was popular in the 80s?

Overrated

I think he'd make really great hog slurry. You can really tell a lot about a man by the way his pureed corpus fills a trough.

red means 'run, son. numbers add up to nothin'

wasting his finite reserves of energy there

Cronenbergian

Like a hastily-assembled meat collage.

hard to tell who is more obsessed with him the right or the left.

also the media love/hate thing is so cute. get a room you two.

“I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me.”

He is only as wicked and hellspawned as the hatred and resentment simmering in the heartland of the most violent nation ever

I think you might need to look into a thing called history if you think this is the most violent nation ever.

you suggest Panama?

the 1997 NYer profile of Trump is start-to-finish amazing but if I had to pick a favorite part it's this https://t.co/reqFZ79eZd pic.twitter.com/Qnwnuiyxqh

libs/"centrists" for sure

it's sobering to realize that Trump is probably the most famous person in human history now

*not adjusted for population inflation

indicative of a deep flaw in our universe

truly he is king of the narcissist personality disorder sufferers

i think jesus still beats him out unless we're only counting contemporaneous fame

Michael Jackson sold a hundred million records

contemporaneous fame. MJ is up there but there are twice as many people on Earth now than there were in 1984.

Donlad Turmp sold a hundred million and one. Sad!

Part of my problem is that I have to do a lot of things myself. It takes so much time. Julio Iglesias is coming to Mar-a-Lago, but I have to call Julio, I have to have lunch with Julio. I have Pavarotti coming. Pavarotti doesn’t perform for anybody. He’s the highest-paid performer in the world. A million dollars a performance. The hardest guy to get. If I call him, he’ll do it—for a huge amount less. Why? Because they like me, they respect me, I don’t know.

I think you might need to look into a thing called history if you think this is the most violent nation ever.

idk Native American genocide plus slavery plus nuclear bomb-dropping... surely we're in the running

probably a million people killed by u.s. in vietnam/laos/cambodia. nobody will ever know how many. not pol pot numbers, but still...

mao would be the world champ though.

it's sobering to realize that Trump is probably the most famous person in human history now

this is a ridiculous statement

Man, if only Trump would tweet that he's bigger than Jesus...

well he's certainly fatter

goebbels precedent is truly beautiful

interesting

Hamsun wrote several newspaper articles in the course of the Second World War, including his notorious 1940 assertion that "the Germans are fighting for us, and now are crushing England's tyranny over us and all neutrals".[26] In 1943, he sent Germany's minister of propaganda Joseph Goebbels his Nobel Prize medal as a gift.[36] Hamsun's biographer Thorkild Hansen interpreted this as part of the strategy to get an audience with Hitler.[40] Hamsun was eventually invited to meet with Hitler; during the meeting, Hamsun complained about the German civilian administrator in Norway, Josef Terboven and asked that imprisoned Norwegian citizens be released, enraging Hitler.[41] Otto Dietrich describes the meeting in his memoirs as the only time that another person was able to get a word in edgeways with Hitler. He attributes this to Hamsun's deafness. Regardless, Dietrich notes that it took Hitler three days to get over his anger.

Knu Hamsun would've been a poster

classic case of a hitler lover figuring that hitler doing hitler stuff to his people must be some sort of mistake

Hamsun won the prize for literature, not peace. like i get why it's funny but it's not like Hamsun was giving the prize to Goebbels because he thought Goebbels "deserved" it

like, he gave him the medal, not the "prize"

It’s so absurd that he accepted this award and posed with it like he achieved something.

Hamsun's ferocious hatred of the British was one of his better qualities.

I mean he's still not the award winner. he's just the dude in possession of the physical trophy of the award, but in terms of historical record, he doesn't and will never have it

there are some motherfuckers who own Super Bowl rings who have never played a down of football in their life

my aunt has a superbowl ring

its not the one they give the players tho its the one they give the staff

still pretty nice

I used to have a platinum record for Disturbed's debut album, which I had absolutely nothing to do with. But I wrote favorably about them when they were starting out, so they sent me one.

Goebbels' writing is totally underrated. Puts other propagandists to shame.

I have a platinum record for Anthrax's Among the Living with my name on it because I paid $500 for a special boxed set

totally enjoyed my time in Anthrax

No, but Goebbels did study literature and wrote a three volume novel, so handing him that is pretty akin to giving Trump yer peace prize.

within his genre (nazi propaganda) he was an important writer

I think it's less about his actual importance and more about Hamsun clocking that Goebbels probably thought he deserved the Nobel prize for literature.

A bit like giving Elon Musk a comedy award.

how's Goebbels' novel

it's like Twilight

But with fewer Nazis.

true, and it's a shame these days that some people feel the need to inject politics into everything, rather than taking the writing on its own merits

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_(novel)

User LocalGarda will be pleased to hear he basically wrote autofiction.

T/S: Michael (Nora Ephron) vs. Michael (Joseph Goebbels)

wow, there's a movie coming out this year based on Michael, I think.

Remember when that asshole Trump accepted the purple heart from that poor old man and later said "I always wanted one of those, and this is a lot easier way of getting one."
Who the says they always wanted a purple heart. Nobody, ever, except this clinically insane jerk face.

waiting for his EGOT

Good thin all the MAGA musicians and actors are absolutely terrible, so we don't have to worry about them handing over a statue to him.

Although, shit. I guess Jon Voight has one.

He could get a Grammy from Cassandra Wilson.

he's just the dude in possession of the physical trophy of the award

Fun Fact! He also aparently has the Club World Cup trophy.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cp3e20kk0l2o

that pic of trump getting the secondhand nobel prize for being a gigantic pathetic baby who doesn't deserve a goddamn thing in the entire world is iconic

His sense of shame is literally sub-toddler

how's Goebbels' novel

50 Shades of White

There is a growing sense of embarrassment among mid-level and senior officials within Fifa over the awarding of its peace prize to Donald Trump.

the embarrassment, it is growing.

https://i.imgur.com/lmGce1X.gif

the embarrassment has grown from complete to total

I mean FIFA strikes me as an inherently unembarrassable bunch of corrupt bastards tbh

certain orgs like fifa ioc and millions more others than we like to think are so inherently corrupt it’s like part of their charter to be so. i cannot believe they have the trait of embarrassment anywhere in them
