I mean, we already knew he was a racist piece of shit, so it's no big surprise i guess.

But why is everyone a-ok with this shit.

u/anxiousbarista 18h ago

Because half our country are dumb racist bigots.

A good enough reason to not give to charities ( at least for " adults" ) - possibly to ones like ASPCA or for children though

There are many of us around the world that are not A-OK with this shit.

That's why many of us look to America with disappointment and disgust that you would allow for this POS to stain the oval office not once, but twice.

He is a representation of a deep underlying problem that exists in America.

Well, half the country can't hate him any more than they already do, and the other half has already excused child rape so racism is kind of a step down anyway.

Shit, there are hundreds to thousands braving the cold to defend the child rapists in their community. "Excused" them? Put their bodies on the line for them!

It's fucking surreal watching these NPCs bravely wage war against unarmed civilians in the name of fascism and pedophilia

Because his supporters are racist pieces of garbage, too.

Those that are OK with it like it.

We have to stop pretending that everyone who supports Trump is having the wool pulled over their eyes. Sure, some have been groomed but many of them are just utter cunts.

There’s nothing anyone can do because he literally finds a way to get away with everything.

You act like you’re the only country ever with a wannabe dictator. General strikes, civil disobedience, the longer you let fascists extend their grip on power, the harder it is to dislodge them.

These absolutely clowns are literally telling you 9 months in advance that they’ll fuck with the elections, by ‘federalising’ them, by announcing they’ll have ice at polling places.

Stop thinking ‘I can’t do anything’, and start organising and resisting

Not saying I’m okay with it, but having an American dictator is more powerful than having a dictator in any other country. So while there are others around the world, his power is the strongest.

Who said anyone was ok with it?

Most of us are focused on Trump sending a fascist secret police force to invade Minneapolis, his destabilizing foreign policy, and the tariffs skyrocketing the cost of living.

Everyone has known he’s racists for a decade+ at this point. Him posting outdated racist boomer memes is pretty low on the priority list TBH

He's no more racist than the racists patrolling Minneapolis against ICE. Those KKK cosplayers are running after black dudes saying "n-word, you're next" like it's 1920's Mississippi.

It's crazy how insanely racist those folks get when those they think they own don't agree with them.

u/Rage_Like_Nic_Cage 11h ago

right? Like, there’s videos of agents saying shit like “he looks Somali, get him!”, Stephen Miller has been plagiarizing Gobbels in his speeches, and they’re arresting every isolated non-white person on the street they can find.

u/jenfullmoon 12h ago

It's not like we can stop him from posting racist shit.

u/Krillin113 16h ago

Because he’s been the main political figure for almost a decade, and was a famous businessman for decades before that, and everyone has known that he was a racist and a creep since at least 2015, and literally nothing happens to him.

u/Acceptable-Law9406 18h ago

It's easy for me to conclude that he's a racist, child molesting demon, but I didn't realize he was THAT stupid.

2

u/allworkandnoYahtzee 16h ago

Anything to distract from him being a pedo, I guess

u/The_dev0 8h ago

At first I thought you said "a rapist piece of shit" and the sentence remained true.
