Trump told a female reporter this. How come this behaviour is accepted but if it was former president Obama, people would have lost their mind. Obama had to practically be ‘perfect’. When Obama wore a tan suit, it was such a huge deal.

Racism is a sick illness.

"Had they put a candidate forward who had the mental capacity and strength of character to lead, then they would have wiped the floor with Trump."

Instead they voted for a man who is now calling for the execution of Democrats

Trump is now seeming to endorse execution for his perceived enemies — retweeting a post that called for the hanging of Democrats who told servicemembers to refuse illegal orders.

He also claims the Dems are engaging in 'seditious behavior'.

Seditious behaviour...
He's one to talk.

I would have voted for a potato rather than a felon. Why couldn't the Republicans find anyone without a criminal record?

I guess for much the same reason the Democrats didn't field a candidate with mental capacity until 2 months before the election when it was too late. It's unbelievable that out of 150milluon population that Biden, Harris and Trump are supposedly the best candidates they had at their disposal.

Whereas the Republicans haven't fielded a candidate with mental capacity since the 2012 election.

Even in Biden's least competent moments, he was surrounded by sensible people who could keep the country running. The people who kept Trump in check last time around have all been purged, he is now surrounded by various alcoholics and media 'personalities' with no clue how to run a government. Meanwhile Peter Thiel and Steve Miller lurk in the shadows.

Why is he never brought to account for anything?

Brought to account by whom? He’s the most powerful man in the world and the supposed “checks and balances” built into the US constitution have been shown to be a paper tiger.

And you know Biden was surrounded by ‘sensible people’ how? It really isn’t sensible to hide from your country that your President is ill and doesn’t have the capacity to make important decisions. The country had voted Biden in, not some faceless people who were more concerned about losing their own places of authority than having concerns for an ill man or a country with no leader. The Democrats manipulated and lied, and that isn’t ‘sensible’.

He's already been bombing Venezuelan fishermen and has planted a flag on Mexican territory so...

I was going to do an explainer about “fish” being at one time a derogatory term for women, but then I googled and it turns out he was talking about how he liked McDonald’s fish and how he would like them to put more tartare sauce on it……

Yes, Trump is undoubtedly misogynist but of the 'women are for sex' variety, not the 'women are good for nothing, including sex' type that that type of drag queens are.

Besides, though Trump is hard to describe as socially conservative, I doubt he'd be using drag queen lingo when that would be extremely unpopular with most of his base.

I saw it as misogyny, not racism.

Also, it was " Quiet, piggy"

Edited

The poster meant that the difference in how Trump is treated compared to how Obama was treated indicates racism. You’re definitely right on the misogyny though.

Although, again, it might just be because he doesn't have a very wide vocabulary. I've never heard him use a word a 9 year old wouldn't know.

Groceries … an old fashioned word …it’s what you call food….costs are way down…eggs are down.. 97-98%.’

It’s like an eight year old talking to a group of his 8 year old classmates. Groceries …it’s an old fashioned word

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com)

Trump to UAE president: "We have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food, it's a pretty accurate term but it's an old fashioned sound but groceries are down."

I see his former best pal, MGT, has resigned.

I am positive she was on his mind when he said piggy.

He was likely thinking of using Miss Piggy as a nickname for her.

And no, I am not commenting of looks etc, but it is the level he works at.

DuncinToffee · 22/11/2025 10:04

MGT has spent years being hated by the Left. 24 hours of being hated by the Right and she needs full security. It must be a bitter pill to swallow.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin says police responded to her home tonight in response to a bomb threat. Slotkin wasn't at home at the time.

This is two days after Trump said Slotkin and other Democrats committed "seditious conspiracy, punishable by death."
