This slaps. The difference between the candidates is pure vibes at this point. They might as well settle it with a dance-off.

Trump is playing the hits I see.

He might’ve lost a step since 2016, but he hasn’t lost it. He’s still the president we Americans deserve rat-salute-2

Not USian but unironically this (though better is needed ofc). I was shocked when he won in 2016 but I must admit it was the most democratic thing that had ever happened in the US' nearing 250 years of ignoble history. He is basically the perfect, truest expression of what America is

yo he was mouthing along to "nothing compares to you" and pointing at his crowd.

fucking amazing.

he has unconditional love for anyone who loves him. hahahahaha.

edit: it turns out he has a "music man" that plays him music he like whenever he gets upset. I think he was giving himself the music man treatment after getting pissed at the fat hogs passing out at his event and disrupting it. lmfao.

This might be his last campaign, let him have a little fun

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 57 points 22 hours ago

That is a long time for someone his age to dance.

Maybe he's born with it. Maybe it's German Sudafed.

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 26 points 20 hours ago

My theory is that he expected to get shot again and wanted to have some fitting music. Make it cinematic trump-who-must-go

[-] Goblin@hexbear.net 16 points 18 hours ago

The best to ever do it

[-] Sasuke@hexbear.net 20 points 19 hours ago

he's practicing his wiggling

This is the electoral genius that the "adults in the room" can't come up with an answer to.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 33 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

A bunch of wine-sipping tryhards that are performatively "adult" can't match the barbarian rizz of an untethered elderly baby.

[-] RiotDoll@hexbear.net 12 points 17 hours ago

I've laughed myself to crying several times reading "barbarian rizz of an untethered elderly baby" thank you

[-] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 4 points 14 hours ago

now this is a tagline folks

[-] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 20 points 19 hours ago

To think Howard Dean sunk his campaign over an excited scream. If Trump wasn't the rizzler and our politics in 2024 wasn't insane this would go down in the record books of "shit that sunk a presidential bid."

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 49 points 22 hours ago

The scream didn't sink the campaign, every single media outlet insisting that the scream sank his campaign, sank his campaign.

He was doing pretty well as the most progressive candidate. MSM had to scramble and come up with a reason to publish a thousand articles about how voters didn't think he was electable. Which made him unelectable.

Great example of tail wagging the dog and crazy how well it worked.

[-] coolusername@lemmy.ml 29 points 21 hours ago

I supported him because he was for universal healthcare. Last time I checked he's a lobbyist specializing in preventing universal healthcare.

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 1 points 1 hour ago

Many such cases.

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 10 points 17 hours ago

That's So Democrat

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 17 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Not to carry water for some liberal ghoul but the entire country abondoning you because the media performed an obvious hatchet job amputation on your campaign would probablly be a pretty strong motivator for anybody to say "fuck these stupid asshole if this is the thanks i get for helping them I just wanna know who's gonna sign the biggest check possible for me"

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 13 points 19 hours ago

How unfortunate. The corporate media socially engineered the end of his presidential run under pretenses of "immaturity" and he wound up being an "adult in the room" status quo warrior anyway.

Isn't Trump kinda the one to bring that about tho? Idk much about howard dean, but I assume he was at least somewhat respected as a politician beforehand. With that scream, in a kind of patriarchical society creating a mythos of education and prestige around politicians, revolving around political etiquette that scream is simply seen as infantile and unserious. Trump entered politics as that kind of infantile and unserious candidate in the first place, being a cartoonish, stereotypical, Saul Goodman-esque figure. In the end, it's all about expectations that people set. Nobody believed agent orange would win, but in the end he did because he represented a kind of tonal shift in american politics, not to mention straight up saying what all these bourgeois politicians already believed anyway. In the same way LGBTQIA+ want to practice their sexuality without the fear of being killed, beaten or prosecuted, that is the same way in the opposite direction in which fascists want to freely express their racist, sexist, homophobic views without any consequences. Trump said these things out loud, and republicans found him 'cool' because he didn't beat around the bush, at least in the public, about their true beliefs.

Ultimately, Trump isn't some anomaly. He's just a natural unmasking of the fascist paradigm of amerikkka.

[-] LigOleTiberal@hexbear.net 9 points 17 hours ago

i'm excited for the next trump. should be even more unhinged and absurd and evil.

[-] 0__0@hexbear.net 9 points 17 hours ago

It's looking like we already have him in vivek

He requested YMCA to dance to… interesting choice.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 40 points 22 hours ago

He requested Ave Maria three times in a row at increasing volumes.

Also he likes ymca because the song calls him a young man.

[-] LigOleTiberal@hexbear.net 8 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

YMCA is his walk off music at every rally!!! the absolute queen. hahaha.

[-] buh@hexbear.net 37 points 23 hours ago

And they are dancing, the board floor slamming under the jackboots and the fiddlers grinning hideously over their canted pieces. Towering over them all is Donald Trump and he is naked dancing, his small feet lively and quick and now in doubletime and bowing to the ladies, huge and pale and hairless, like an enormous infant. He never sleeps, he says. He says he’ll never die. He bows to the fiddlers and sashays backwards and throws back his head and laughs deep in his throat and he is a great favorite, Donald Trump. He wafts his hat and the lunar dome of his skull passes palely under the lamps and he swings about and takes possession of one of the fiddles and he pirouettes and makes a pass, two passes, dancing and fiddling at once. His feet are light and nimble. He never sleeps. He says that he will never die. He dances in light and in shadow and he is a great favorite. He never sleeps, Donald Trump. He is dancing, dancing. He says that he will never die.
