Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

If by masterful, you mean childish and pathetic, sure.
Trump calls people names, its childish and the actions of a bully. Shit like this is a sad attempt to mimic it, but is somehow even worse. It's like a 4th grader making a up lame insult to a 2nd grader, and a 2nd grader responding with an even lamer insult.
Like, if you're going to get down and wrestle a pig whose wallowing in shit, you better at least have an idea how and not look like a fucking amateur.
It drew you here, so you must be right LMAO
My g this is Trump you're talking about. This man cares about himself and his ego over anything. Some polite and well-researched rebuke or dissertation isn't going to do anything about that, we've tried that for 8 years plus. He's getting his hour in the courts, with the appropriate process and decorum he deserves, and imo a whole lot more chances than he deserves at that. He's gone through it many times now and continually shows us that he has no shame.
The one thing that gets directly on the nerves of this serial name-calling bully is to call him names. This one is crafted to poke at his specific desire to appear like a rich and successful man, and highlights the fact he chronically cannot keep a story straight between himself and his lawyers.
Hope that clears it up for you, cheers.
Don't change the subject, we are discussing the memes against Mr. Trump, not Mr. Trump himself.
This guy over here thinking highbrow insults would land.
Someone has no idea how memes work
Or how fragile Don's ego is. That's the point. Give him a taste of his own medicine because he can't take it.
