I thought reposting the 'Gaza golden statue' video was the worst it would get, but there was more to come..

Defenders always say he's just being down with online youth culture- sure. But is that what the President should be doing? 🙄

At least this kind of bizarre behaviiue will have to end in 2028.

I was actually feeling more positive about Trump given he appears to have brought a ceasefire. It's beyond me why he can act sensibly in thar kind of situation but then continue this toddler behaviour back home...

He’s the chief troll, and it’s absolutely hilarious watching people get so het up and angry about the things he posts. He knows which buttons to press, and it works! 😄

So lame and pathetic.

What's psychopathic is people's desire to "own the libs* at the expense of their country, their democracy, economy and their children's future.

It's those failures that Putin is exploiting.

He is indeed chief troll.

The problem is he's also one of the most powerful men on the planet. Trump is POTUS, cognitively impaired and Vladimir Putin is pulling his strings/ yanking his chain.

His capacity for national and global damage is huge.🤦‍♀️

I mean, Bill Cinton shoved a cigar up a young woman's vagina and had sex with her in the Oval Office. Scott Morrison made a disgustingly crude joke about Pamela Anderson and how his friends would love to meet her when he was PM of Aus. I dare say most PMs and Presidents do things that some consider vulgar.

I think snatching 500 pounds a year fuel allowance from freezing pensioners is psychopathic and personally, I'd rather have vulgar. Let's not forget Starmer said specifically that 400,000 extra old people would die if the Tories snatched their fuel allowance, and then he waited till he was in power to do it anyway.

Vulgar is just a question of taste, I'd rather vulgar than psychopathic.

And no its not a tit for tat because we'd be here all day listing things Starmer has done wrong, not to mention other PMs and Presidents past present and future.

I just don't care about Trump posting a meme that he thought was funny. He did it to annoy people and here you are in another country being annoyed by it, so I guess he hit the target, as it were.

Edited

What’s psychopathic is the fact that millions of people will lose access to their healthcare in the US because Trump would rather give the ultra rich a tax cut and is funding it at their expense. Let’s not forget the millions of people who died under his watch when he was president in his first term. And he hasn’t released the Epstein files yet.

I believe Kamala worked at McDonald's and AOC used to wait tables and worked in a bar- they're just the ones I know - I don't think they would classed as elite, they probably dove their own cars .

The problem for her is being photographed as a waitress at McDonalds would do the opposite in terms of messaging to that of Trump. Misogyny and racism bring the principal reasons.

He visited a supermarket during his last election campaign, and paid for a woman’s shopping. Of course it was a PR exercise, along with ‘working’ in a fast food restaurant and driving a garbage truck. But it has worked to show him as more in touch with the people than the democratic elites. He is a skilled self-publicist.

I see Kamala Harris is talking about running for President again...

RoostingHens · 25/10/2025 17:51

Doingtheboxerbeat · 23/10/2025 04:49

He is not only despicable in every way, but he probably has never loaded a washing machine or a dishwasher or been to the supermarket in his life and it rankles that the povvo's think he's one of them .

I wouldn't rule out him not being in office after 2028 if he isn't in the underworld afterlife .

It’s crass, didn’t really see the point.

Do I regret voting for him? Absolutely fucking NOT

PrincessSophieFrederike · 24/10/2025 05:13

I'm not denying it's funny. But that's not the only thing it is.

This isn't about a 'Be Kind Mob' 🙄 Obviusly Trump is a complex person, his presidency had some good achievements (prime one may be if he can hold the Gaza ceasefire)

But it's dangerous for woke oversensitivity to be conflated with any criticism of Trump. I won't go into his negative traits now, aside from one.

His extreme closeness with Epstein and subsequent cover up. THAT alone makes him unfit for his role.

It seems that people are essentially saying that they're resigned to politicians being bad, so they'd rather have one who's openly and amusingly bad.

But world leaders shouldn't be spectacles to laugh at. We should not be resigned to them being a source of entertainment at best. Yes, it's funny. It's also a depressing indictment of politics today, that people in general are so jaded that this outlandish behaviour is seen as the best we can hope for.

Trump was not "extremely close" to Epstein.

It's the standard Reform/Maga thing, vaguely threatening language suggesting some enormous uprising of the right and a return to 'Christian Values' etc.

The thing they miss is the UK is not the USA and it won't take off the same, however much hatred they whip up against immigrants. The Welsh byelection gives an indicator of where things are going. Reform have all the support they are going to get, there are no 'undecided voters' heading their way.

This. The one Reform member in the Senedd was not elected as Reform,she is a defector from the Tories.

The American people voted for Putin's Puppet and they're going to have to live with it. Let's hope the Constitution is strong enough to keep him in check.🫣

OonaStubbs · 25/10/2025 14:56

Who decides on what "appropriate behaviour" of the US president should be? The voters? Or someone else?

Maybe it's the other politicians that are out of touch with the public?

Iwanttoliveinagardencentre · 25/10/2025 07:07

Those who think this behaviour is appropriate from a leader are his Maga fans.
They like crass vulgarity. Otherwise he wouldn’t be president.

SugarPlumpFairyCakes · 25/10/2025 07:02

playstupidgameswinstupidprizes · 23/10/2025 03:08

Meh. They had a "No kings" protest, based on the weird notion that he's their king when in fact he is their elected president.

People made memes, not him, and he found them funny and shared them.

Can't bring myself to give a shit, whether dumped from a plane or not.

Really? You really think this is behaviour appropriate for a president of the USA?

Very low standards.

Platypusdiver · 25/10/2025 06:26

You are in fact allowed to think positive things about Trump and even say them. But then other people criticize you because they, believe it or not, also have the right to express their opinions. And then you convince yourself that your freedom of speech is somehow being suppressed. Or at least that is the typical sequence.
What many people seem not to understand is that while you have the right to free speech, you do not have the right to be liked or respected for that speech.

Excellent point. "Not allowed to say..." Basically means that someone doesn't like what I am saying and it annoys me.

And freaking everyone wants to be on reality show and the reason is is bc they pay them big money to be publicly shown as clowns. I find it embarrassing but it’s not just in America. I believe the UK started all the dance and voice and reality shows and then America followed the lead

I know, it's disgusting whether US or UK.

This a perfect example of people saying things about information that they have no proof of of if it’s real or not. Who decided that trump did. I really doubt, I mean, I think a jerk but he’s a freaking smart jerk but just bc someone puts something on the internet and accuses somebody of something doesn’t make it true.

It's been widely reported in the MSM. Trump's minions have spoken about it.

You have to remember that that was an AI post. It’s not reaity

Obviously Trump isn't actually dumping poo from a jet (though who knows nowadays)

My point is that it's completely inappropriate for him to repost. Just like the Gaza golden statue repost was

People need a reality check. Just bc someone says someone did something. Where’s the proof. This is like high school bullying to me. She said, you said, he said, they said. What a bunch of crap. Get real facts before saying anything

Yep. And at least he has a sense of humour.

(As we are not allowed to think anything positive about Trump at all according to the "Be Kind" mob, I will wait to be screamed at and told "Yes, well I don't consider it funny that he...."

Personally I could never bring myself to think anything positive about sex offenders.

But some folk have no bar to raise.
