This is just one of thousands of examples of immense disrespect. And his cult follows him along through everything.

I'm all seriousness, if you find this appealing, would you not be happier if you just move there? If you have no allegiance to this country, please be respectful, have some dignity, and don't actively try to ruin it for the rest of us. Stop trying to sabotage this country by actively undermining it.

Idiot bought into the American propaganda “Hollywood movies told me Americans single handedly ended the nazis and saved the world!”. And why is he celebrating the defeat of Nazi Germany when he worships it?

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

Popularist and nationalist.

I wonder where I've seen that before...

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

And that’s the question. If you think the US is so great, why don’t you just move there? Somehow, you’ve decided that the fascists and Nazis your grandfathers fought and died to protect you from, are now your heroes? Maybe get off fox news. Maybe get off FB. Maybe take some college courses. Maybe learn to read and think again.

He just makes it sound like these other countries are not remembering the efforts from all the allies, including the U.S. I can tell you first hand that is not the case. I think any US WWII veteran can confirm.

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

I hear what you’re saying. So WHY are so many of the current people not remembering the efforts from all of the people that fought against the fascists and nazis? Why do we have young people flying nazi flags?

fun fact: there was a romanian guy who was captured in WW2, and he was sent to a psych asylum because everyone thought he was talking in a cryptic language and they thought he was insane. Anyway, 60 years later, a romanian doctor came to the hospital, and they released the guy because they found out he was speaking in romanian.

I'm skeptical that he picked up absolutely none of the local language while being immersed in it.
I'm sure not a ton of people spoke to him, but like... 60 years?

Once you have been labelled with a psychological disorder, medical staff view you through that lens. It defines you to them. They cannot see anything else. The man might have started speaking actual ~~English~~ Russian (as it turns out) but if his chart says, "Cannot communicate," you'd be shocked how often other evidence gets disregarded.

What were the conditions of his stay? Was this 60 years of solitary confinement with no activities to engage with? No art or human interaction?
In which case, never mind the rest, it's a medical miracle the dude isn't a catatonic.

Do we have any source? I can't find it on truthsocial.com

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I'd flatten my nuts with a mallet before I go on truth social, but if you google it you can find other sources talking about it. Such as New York Post, who I assume is proud of his announcement: https://nypost.com/2025/05/02/us-news/trump-declares-may-8-victory-day-for-world-war-ii/

As usual with Trump, when you look into it you realize it's worse than you originally thought:

Trump acknowledged in a Truth Social that “many of our allies and friends” already celebrate on May 8, but said America should join in because “we did more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result.

Man, fuck this guy.

Don't lower yourself to go personally. Send your User Agent on your behalf so you don't have to sully yourself.

Seriously, he's not the Medusa.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Apparently Trump has made it official - he thinks he will be the next Pope.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This can't be a real thing.

I'm not religious, but I feel like this is somehow extra super duper disrespectful. Religious folk are not known for their tolerance of false or satirical iconography.

But I guess he's insulting Catholics so it's probably totally cool with his evangelical base. Oh who am I kidding, he could make AI scat porn with their Lord and Saviour and they'd find a passage in the Bible that supports it.

He has no clue whatsoever about faith and scripture and fits the description of the Antichrist perfectly (I’m too lazy to look up sources right now) - still gets seen as sent by God, etc.

I don’t get it, must be brain worms or something.

No, it's just narcissism. Nothing special about his actions, they are all classic narcissistic behaviors.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I disagree. Even considering that narcissism is a spectrum and Drumpf is one of the most narcissistic people alive does not fully explain his behavior.

E.g. He even lied about stuff where it didn’t score points for him. Sometimes the truth would have even been better for him. He loves lying almost as much as he loves himself.

There’s a couple of disorders on top of his incredibly malignant narcissism.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

Narcissists lie because they have no concept of of factual truth. Whatever they say is the truth, because they say it. They do not need to benefit from the lie.

Stupid is stupid, no matter what country you are from. There will always be people who prefer ignorance to education, in any country. The trick is to deal with them efficiently and effectively. "Just watch me."

[–] [email protected] 37 points 2 days ago (1 children)

America claiming it did more than any otber country to achieve victory in WW2 has to be the most laughable shit. I hope the rest of the world sees it that way

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago

It's laughable, but with extremely sinister undertones

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 days ago

The bone spurs could not even be bothered to go to war when his name was called, yet his brother did.

He has no right to say poop about war.
