We never buried my Dad's ashes ⚱️. That's dumb. Why go establish a debt to keep someone's ashes in a bottle. We keep them in the living room. It's just ashes. I personally agree with Trump on this. He's still going to loose and am still gonna kick his nuts off when I find him in hell after I pass away. And most Mexicans aren't fucking....not right now at this moment. It's daylight. We're working.

Trump said he'd fund it. He didn't

If he's not going to keep his promises, he should f**K off.

Wouldn't it be great if what we do with our loved ones after their passing is not up to you or Trump though?

Somehow, some way, this orange clown makes me angrier everyday, even when I thought I'd seen the worst of him.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (4 children)

To be fair to him that is an exorbitant amount.

“Donald Trump raged when he learned the funeral bill for Vanessa Guillén—the U.S. soldier who was sexually harassed and horrifically murdered by a male soldier at Fort Hood in 2020—cost $60,000, a bombshell report revealed Tuesday.

That outburst came after Trump invited Guillén’s loved ones to the White House and offered to pay for her funeral…”

He offered to pay. No one asked him to do that.

Then maybe he should look at what he did as president and realize why he should fuck right off and not ever be seen again.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

I'm not upset that he's upset at the amount. It's purely the second half of that sentence that shows what a piece of shit he is

Just one more thing that should absolutely torpedo any political career, that won't hurt him at all. His MAGAt cultists probably think that was "speaking the truth" or some stupid shit like that. Anyone who would be bothered by his comments has abandoned him ages ago.

Trump reportedly complained later in the day that these “fucking people” are “trying to rip me off.”

He thinks it's his money.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

He-s mad he's not in the Funeral business.

Oligarchy 101.

Treat public expenses like it's coming out your own pocket.

Treat the public purse like it's your own personal bank account.

Trump cultists: "He isn't racist."

"You see, he meant it as in: "A mexican that fucks", which is a totally normal thing to say."

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Yes a totally normal thing to say about a sexual assault victim who was murdered by her assaulter.
