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'

shelter me from the putin and the banker
i bankrupted casinos. who the fuck does that?

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

Proposal: Trump is barred from all politics but gets wheeled out around the country to do strange rallies where everyone laughs at him

Fireside Shats

ftr I had no idea that Seth Meyer did an entire bit around this idea when I posted

he's definitely done for YMCA what Reservoir Dogs did for Stuck in the Middle With You

Except it makes me want to cut my eyes out *and* ears off.

Then you'd have to wear one of those MAGA ear bandages

Ear bandages, orange vests, fellatio on microphones - what's not to like?

all the classics

one-eared mic fluffer Donald Trump. we get the Vincent van Gogh we deserve i guess.

can't believe the Harris campaign hasn't had Mickey Rourke doing interviews for them this whole time

hahaha

lmao

What hahaha

MR looks like he just won a very rough street fight

I'm pretty sure that's the path that led him to his current state

read my mind: Harris/Walz

https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4977481-trump-civil-cases-future/

Justice department is gonna kill most of criminal cases, but civil cases might survive although he’s trying to kill those also as he doesn’t want to pay fines

There's a Supreme Court precedent that you can take a sitting President to civil court, but I'm sure that won't matter.

I mean he faced civil trials during his last administration

I mean he faced civil trials during his last administration

we don't know that Justice is going to kill them. they're figuring it out

I mean, if you really think Trump is gonna face any consequences whatsoever for his criminal actions....

that's a different conversation

or maybe an adjacent one. we'll know more when we hear from DOJ but until then it's speculation

Didn't the DOJ already say they are "winding down" the investigations?

That's what's yet to sink in fully for me, the realization that we've watched this guy commit crime after crime after crime, in broad daylight, and he won't ever see a single consequence for it. Terrific example for kids to see that cheating, lying and criming your way to the top of the pyramid is A-OK in good ol' America.

Another joe Biden failure was appointing that milk toast ass AG

Can't wait for Merrick Garland's memoir "The Best Way Isn't Always the Fast Way."

Didn't the DOJ already say they are "winding down" the investigations?

I would wait until we hear something official from DOJ, not a news article

You'd imagine they know they will be fired before they can bring anything to court. Probably archiving the evidence and filing things so it can't just be dumped in a furnace by the Trump people.

what's the statute of limitations on these things? If he's still alive in 2029 and not Emperor for Life by then...

dud

he's gonna send Jack Smith to Guantanamo

I think we have to put off this decision for another 4 years.

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/16/nyregion/trump-immunity-criminal-case.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

A judge on Monday rejected Donald J. Trump’s argument that a recent Supreme Court ruling had nullified his criminal case in New York, upholding the former and future president’s felony conviction for falsifying records to cover up a sex scandal.

The judge’s ruling preserves, at least for now, the stain of Mr. Trump’s criminal conviction. And if the decision withstands an appeal, Mr. Trump could become the first felon to serve as president.

The ruling, which addressed the Supreme Court’s decision to grant presidents broad immunity for their official actions, thwarted only the first of several legal maneuvers Mr. Trump has concocted to clear his record of 34 felonies before returning to the White House.

Prosecutors had argued that the Supreme Court’s decision had “no bearing on this prosecution,” noting that Mr. Trump was convicted of orchestrating a scheme involving a personal and political crisis that predated his presidency

oh no not a stain on Mr. Trump's legacy

Legacy stains—you just gotta use bleach

ABC paid trump $15M today, to settle a defamation claim against the stephanopolous show, to be paid (supposedly) toward a future trump presidential library.

Feels like the world is finally starting to come around to this rascal. Just let him do it! He's a celebrity!

yeah does feel like a lot of folks are just capitulating, not realizing that every single thing this guy touches turns to shit

and now emboldened, he is suing the Des Moines Register, claiming that the outlier Selzer poll that had Harris up 3 in Iowa was election interference

It interfered with me accepting reality for a day or so.

I'm guessing a nuclear bomb got mislaid somewhere and now they're looking for it with all these fancy drones.

... but then why are they looking all over the place? Hmmm.

so much toxic waste floating above NJ they keep losing the trail

I, for one, welcome our new droneverlords

I've waited for you droneverlong

The $5M judgment against Asshole-Elect for sexual abuse and defamation against E. Jean Carroll is upheld — https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/12/30/trump-appeal-e-jean-carroll-defamation-sexual-abuse/
He can appeal to the full 2nd Circuit or SCOTUS.

The latter will find a way to make it “presidential” and thus above the law

The SCOTUS made that path much harder for Trump to go down when they ruled against Bill Clinton's attempt to block the Paula Jones suit. But you just know that at least 4 current justices would still vote for some bullshit reasoning that completely contradicts that precedent.
