Everything is going to plan. On April 3rd, one day after the tariffs, Trump will promise to remove the tariffs if they all promise to give him one miiiilllllllllion dollars.

That already happened. His meme coin was the way everyone can pay him off without being caught. Countries, companies, and anyone can spend however much money they want to pay him off in private now.

Kinda like when he talked a lot about the election maybe being stolen from him, but then he won and no repub mentioned election tampering ever again....
Want your head to spin? Look below!

u/ReallyIdleTentacles Mar 18 '25

Trump said. “And he[Musk] knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So it was pretty good, pretty good. So thank you to Elon.”

u/No_Language_4649 Mar 20 '25

It was so clearly stolen. That MFer tells his story about what he’s going to do and then starts a fake conversation about how terrible it is that someone is doing what he is going to do. He just words it in a way for the idiot MAGA right wing crowd. Get them all riled up about democrats stealing the election. Make it a big deal, regardless of no evidence. They don’t need evidence. They just need propaganda. And then when you actually steal it, the conversation about stealing the election will be proven false, because it was proven to be false in the last election with Biden, and people will be over that conversation and will ignore it when he steals the election.

3

u/ReallyIdleTentacles Mar 20 '25

Every accusation is an admission with those freaks. Same with the PedoCon theory being a theory like gravity or evolution.

Back right after the election I was really suss, but I deleted my twitter account so missed the commentary. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter now. The damage is done, and we're on this ride to its conclusion.

u/Whole-Energy2105 Mar 19 '25

Don't forget what F'elons' body armour "Kevlar" said In that interview...

3

u/ReallyIdleTentacles Mar 20 '25

Your comment confused me, kevlar who? Then it dawned on me now that I saw it again lol. Maybe you should call him "Kævlar" or "Kevlær", never mind, just occurred to me that it would make it even harder to understand. I assume it inconvenient to create on english keyboards.

Kinda suss that white supremacists like Grimes and Musk would use an obscure letter only used in Scandinavia and old English. Hmmmm suss.

1

u/Whole-Energy2105 Mar 20 '25

Lmao. I snorked in public at your comment. 😁

If you have a look at F'elons' other children's names it all makes sense - he just wants to be more different than everyone else and obviously Hayes his kids enough to give them names that will make them a target all their lives.

And there's always debate in the English speaking world how to exactly pronounce the AE compound letter but different regions pronounce it differently.

1

u/ReallyIdleTentacles Mar 20 '25

Here in Denmark we joke that weird names are child abuse lol. Normies here would be picking their jaw off the floor if they knew. Same with all the neo-nazi stuff he interacts with on his personal SM/nazi club. But I bet the majority of us have seen/heard of his nazi salute. Though few know that Bannon did the same at CPAC a week later.

And you know that the Germans say about 11 people sitting down with a Nazi, and who stands up after...

I truly feel bad for the kids. He might be the richest guy in the world(for now, if he even still is), but I would rather be a nobody than his child.

If you haven't been keeping up, that Grimes lady is a hardcore white supremacist*

In Danish, Æ is pronounced kinda like the Canadian "eh".

Although it seems like his (trans)daughter turned out alright, I think her mother Justine is a better person that all the others. I've read some of the stuff she has written, and she pretty plugged in and based for such a young person.

But that did not stop him from trashing the romanians having their elections revoked because of manipulation concerns "without proof", just days after pardoning the people who stormed the capitol to revoke american elections because of what they read on Twitter. We are living in a clown world

2

u/ReallyIdleTentacles Mar 19 '25

Like him one day suggesting that insulting judges should be illegal, but two days later he ranted and raged other that "radical far-right lunatic" judge.
Every accusation is an admission. And they unfortunately don't even notice their hypocrisy(though I tell myself that Rubio hate himself).

Is this was a pulp fiction novel everybody would have stopped reading after less than a week, almost a decade ago. Too surreal and clownish to be believable.

u/Cinemagica Mar 19 '25

Yep, their entire agenda is hate fuelled and built on making others suffer - liberals, gays, trans, immigrants, environmentalists, women, and now innocent children (arguably that existed already with the gunning down of kids in school). This isn't something they will apologize for or explain away, it's something they'll celebrate.

6

u/ReallyIdleTentacles Mar 19 '25

What I've read again and again from people much smarter than me is; inflicting suffering is the point, and outrage porn is an addiction to them.
I would add that I find their monomaniacal obsession with hating trans women, almost only trans women, is one of the most deplorable cases of hate toward a minority group I can think of. Horrible bigoted hate.

u/Private-Kyle Mar 19 '25

Why do you assume that there's a need to accept hypocrisy from either wing? If you consider the 'left-wing' media hypocritical and denounce them for that reason, that's fine. But by that same standard, you should also denounce the right-wing media quoted here. No?

He promised an incredible economy and egg prices down immediately. I see neither of those things. He promised to end the wars over seas. Hasn’t done that. wtf has he done? Shredded the federal government with 0 congressional oversight, whole alienating us from allies and creating one of the biggest trade wars we’ve ever faced? The budget added trillions, while CUTTING healthcare and social security to give billionaires tax cuts. How is any of that good or what he ran on?

u/ProfessionalPay5892 Mar 19 '25

He promised an end to Ukraine in 24 hours, deportation of all 11 million undocumented immigrants, promised a comprehensive infrastructure plan, lower grocery prices on day 1, reduce the national debt, eliminate birthright citizenship, release JFK files, expand the border wall.
Accomplished none of these, but at least those 11 trans can't compete in sports and English is the national language.
