It's getting harder and harder to distinguish NTO headlines from the rest. That's how stupid this motherfucker is. Every Trump headline could be posted here unironically.

The only paper I want to see this man's face on is toilet paper.

The next admin is going to have so much shit to clean up that it'll be like seeing your home after you rented it out to a massive drunken party.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

What do you mean "next admin"? This is it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Why stop there? Why not just call the whole country the United States of Trump?

I thought there already was a law stating living persons cannot be placed on currency. Am I not correct?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Hmmm... Suddenly I'm on board with this idea

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

a what? that word....llllaaaaawwwww can't say I'm familiar with it,

must be some kind of old term that applied to presidents before the current godking....

"President Trump could be enjoying his golden years golfing and spending time with his family," Gill told Fox News Digital. "Instead, he took a bullet for this country and is now working overtime to secure our border, fix our uneven trade relationship with the rest of the world, make America energy independent again, and put America first by ending useless foreign aid."

I can’t I give up. I’m Canadian and America is fucked. There are no policies, no plans to make projects or fix problems. It’s all a campaign and political points. This is just pure trash satire at this point. URGH

2016 was the year that satire died

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

It was much earlier.

In 2010, a christian fundamentalist on youtube started to overanalyse Lady Gaga MVs, then moved onto other artists and eventually other media. He was pretty much the forerunner of those wokespotters (except not even SJW was a snarl word at that point), and yes eventually he dabbled into racism too, but he was also openly "not antisemitic" (he loved the sinner and hated the sin). When he first posted his videos, people, including me, thought it was a satire of conspiracy theorists. He was dead serious. I remember him nuking his old videos and making more sane sounding ones once gamergate hit mainstream, even backpedalling on his earlier analysises pointing out Freemasonry symbols and David Stars in media.

I thought he was broke and about to go to jail unless he became president and illegally stopped all investigations against him. So that he could again go to golf orgies where he could be a pedo. But okay.....

I'm sorry ma'am, the cash register is broken!

Oh I'm sorry, I don't have change for a hundred

Oh sir, we only accept 20's or lower currency. It's for our safety!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

It has been since 2017 when he took office. Satire is dead.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I can already hear one of those terrible Trump rappers like Forgiato Blow making a maga themed "it's all about the Donalds baby" parody song. And it would probably gets millions of streams too. Ugh.

I'd rather see George Clooney's asshole on the 100. Put this fuckers ugly face on the ruble.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Make americans vote between the two. I feel like that's gonna be more decisive than the last election.

Imagine living in a country with the face of a felon rapist traitor on our currency.

Brought to you by dipshit conservatives.

Imagine living in a country with the face of a felon rapist traitor on our currency.

From my experience travelling the world, that's not particularly uncommon. The US doesn't have to feel singled out for having such people on their bank notes.

Do you know about Andrew Jackson's behavior?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

For all of his many flaws, I don't think Jackson was an agent of a foreign power.

Even so, there are places in Oklahoma where a 20 isn't considered valid currency.

All about the trumps just doesn't slap like Benjamins. All about the trumps sounds like a nightmare of a reality show

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

As a Benjamin, I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 month ago

All about the Donnies is not bad.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

All about the trumps sounds like a nightmare of a reality show

All About The Trumps sounds like our actual reality.

Because America is too weak to put a felon rapist traitor and his Beverly Hillbilly family behind us.
