I'm pretty certain Taylor Swift probably has enough sway/numbers to take the White House if she wanted to.

At this point, anything is better than orange

I'd vote for anything that doesn't shit it pants hourly.

I'd vote for any adult without brain damage.

I'd vote for Liz Truss's cabbage.

[–] DiaDeLosMuertos@aussie.zone 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

"Liz Truss's cabbage". Is that a euphemism ? Because I'd happily vote for that also.

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

It’s the cabbage that was live-streamed for the duration of her holding office.

It survived longer than her tenure.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

yes, its how long liz truss survived being the pm in the UK, a whole head of cabbage(from fresh to rotten) which lasted longer than her tenure.

the american one is scarramuci.

I mean, she’s managed her image and business this long. I think politics is a good fit for her skillset.

As is the power she’d wield over the Democrat Party. They would worship the ground she walks on (in an attempt for some of that celebrity to rub off).

…But the election would be gruesomely dirty. I can only imagine all the shit that would get thrown at her.

That would be hilarious if this tweet is the equivalent of the obama press party joke

imagine being 80 and throwing a footstomping toddler tantrum over a pop star teen idol not voting for you

[–] DiaDeLosMuertos@aussie.zone 70 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

My dad died at the age of 79. Just sayin'.

Looking forward to opening the most expensive bottle of bubbly that I've ever bought sooner rather than later.

And to add, I'm in Australia, an Australian citizen, although English born. Never hated a person so much. Oh hang on, there was this Maggie Thatcher woman once upon a time.

I was a kid that enjoyed our milk break in my younger years. Such a lovely memory. Oh I grew up on a council estate too. Not exactly the kind of person that Maggie looked after really.

Sadly from his health reports, it's clear they've got him on Ozempic and probably a half dozen drugs we've never heard of to keep things running. His cholesterol is down, his weight is down. They want another 10-15 years out of the old bag. They might get it. Which means we might get it.

Been saying this for a couple of years. It would be child's play to push this man into total narcissistic collapse.

Imagine if pop stars, actors, world leaders, media personalities, tech bro billionaires, all hit him at once, anyone who has the ear of millions. Just today he's had a mini meltdown over Tay Tay (from months ago) and Bruce Springsteen.

World leaders would be especially effective as he considers himself a peer. Those people baiting him up would take him back to his school days where the rich-kid in-crowd bullied him. Gods, just imagine if someone like Macron came out and said, (imagine French accent) "He thinks he is a leader, part of our club. He is only a small child with a cult and will never belong among serious leaders. His wife will not touch him, but we can she see how she make eyes, no? In front of the old cuckold!" And then have a dozen others come out and say the same.

Can you imagine the total hissing, spitting, pissing frenzy that would follow? Trump would be unable to do anything but scream, his mind unable to even attempt to govern. Shut him down hard enough and the Cabinet would be forced to pull the 25th Amendment on him.

I should lead this thing.

[–] DiaDeLosMuertos@aussie.zone 14 points 2 weeks ago

Now that would be wonderful to witness.

( Hey mate, I think you should have a look at that sentence about his wife, I think auto correct got you, cheers. )

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

that was the whole point of keeping the "Trump is Elon's bitch gig" going. wonder why that stopped

[–] iknowitwheniseeit@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Because Elon rage quit the "let's destroy the government and funnel more cash to me" game.

[–] AFaithfulNihilist@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

Elon didn't go anywhere. Him leaving was theater in the hopes that his stocks would stop cratering.

And she’s dating a jock in NFL, unlike Trump’s wife who obviously is after his money, sad.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 9 points 2 weeks ago

Trump don't care, it's not like that gross little orange Toad of his works at his age. As long as he has his trophy wife, fawning sycophants, and that one crazy chick to throw herself at him like a bitch in heat with spongiform brain disease, he's fine to live out the rest of his putrid existence ruining things for everybody else in order to glorify himself. People like him make me wish I could be religious, because he absolutely deserves to burn in hell along with the rest of the monsters working for him.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 25 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

he called the current leader of syria, an attractive man.

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

How is Trump showing up on Bluesky.

Also… is this real?

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I think it's a screenshot my friend

As for if it's real, I'm not gonna visit his cesspool to find out

I’m not a fan of Tay Tay, but I would absolutely love to see her crush Tump Tump. In fact, I would become an instant fan if she does.

[–] UnderFreyja@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Wait till you see his tweet about Bruce Springsteen, he's particularly crazy today

[–] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] OwlHamster@lemm.ee 7 points 2 weeks ago

The fucking parentheses comments. I just don't get it, I'm at a complete loss for words. What the fuck is going on in the US?

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Almost like attention from Trump is a total buzzkill.

That’s the thing about a pig. You wrestle with it, even if you win, you get dirty.

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Doesn't POTUS have more important shit to do like read the daily security briefing?

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

You think he cares?

[–] Onionguy@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago
