Pffft. Who can't see that that's ai generated? Also how weird is it to see Trump in anything but suit or silly golf clothes? Jeans and a button up is entirely to normal for the orange man to wear.

He's wearing jeans in the photo for once. I can't imagine him ever wearing jeans

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I doubt that man even owns a pair of jeans.

They had to. It's far too dangerous for him to be near actual water. If his diaper gets too saturated it will drag him under.

Of course it is. Nothing in his history would make anyone sane believe he'd be anywhere near active flood waters. Or even wear a safety vest on the first place.

...anyone sane...

Trump claimed to have sent workers to Ground Zero after the 9/11 attacks.

Not only didn't Trump send workers, he didn't do anything for the volunteers who did show up.

Plenty of places were offering volunteers rooms and / or food during the clean up operations. Trump's properties were locked tight.

He did take money becuase he was a 'small business' owner.

He did also claim, on 9/11 mind you, that he now had the tallest building in Manhattan. Which wasn't even true.

Don't forget him bragging that he now held the tallest skyscrapers on the NYC skyline.
