Trump lost the narrative today. We are turning it around.nt

[drray23]

Usually, we democrats always struggle to get our message out given that the media prefers amplifying nonsense coming out of the white house and RW propaganda. This time, however, Trump's attempt to seize the day with his parade completely fizzled.

The headlines are mostly focusing on the Minnesota assassinations and the no king protests. Just a few minutes on Trump's parade which was lackluster.

Interestingly enough, Trump delivered a milquetoast subdued speech instead of politicizing it. I wonder if that was his way to save face after all the pushback he had gotten in the past few days, even from republicans about this parade. Since he could not really back out of it, he ended up going through the motions.

The few shots that I saw of it, Trump looks bored and upset, standing there. There is a shot where he is saluting and Hegseth is smiling broadly with a drunken expression. I would not be surprised if he had hit the bottle a bit.

1. It was a bizarre picture.

Hegseth looks high and drunk laughing hysterically when everyone else looked grim.
Trump standing up saluting looking like he was having a cognitive slippage moment.
Melania looks like she is at a funeral.

Then we see Trump looking depressed, bored, falling asleep.

2. Hogsbreath was happy that the Pisswig stood up

and freed his thumb

3. Given the tragedy in MN by a trumper. he knows it would have been horrible optics to do his usual schtick

I am sure he was briefed on the identity of the killer. One thing he's good at is marketing. Promoting hate after one of your supporters committed mass murder, would not have gone over well.

4. Oh, he happy as can be

I couldn’t BEGIN to caption this gem.

[newdeal2]

5. I just hear the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme song

Maybe for a brief moment he realized the deep shit he was in.

6. falling asleep ? The guy next it him is WTF is he sundowning ? nt.

[usonian]

10. I've seen those eye bags before. Guy lasted a week.

Mind you, I had to enhance this picture a bit. It was really hazy, so details are a bit exaggerated, but others, including some very obvious Secret Service, look OK.

If not a tough shit passing through, this has the "Melania said she has a date, and won't be at the after-party", or "Putin said he's had enough and is releasing the files" look. (Or maybe his dicktater buddies all had a big laugh)

"Putin says he admires your Lego parade" ... who knows?

The guy is made of absolutely nothing and relies on external verification. And when everything and everyone piss on you, including Mother Nature (I don't have the weather reports handy) then .... ???

7. Who the fuck knew we fought so many wars.

Next parade, we skip to the good ones

[Hellbound Hellhound]

11. He looks like I do when I take a particularly troublesome dump. n/t

[mopinko]

15. who's the guy behind him, looking so concerned?

saw about 90 sec of video, and that guy was looking at him like that the whole time.

[usonian]

16. Two guys next to him look like Secret Service.

He might have paramedic training.

Or he's controlling the epinephrine pump.

Very strange stuff.

[mopinko]

17. dude was clearly worried.

[BOSSHOG]

8. I was surprised they didn't show all the Republican Senators and Congressmen

In attendance. I guess they didn’t have a wide angle lens.

[Rebl2]

12. Thought

I read Senators were not attending. Don’t know about house members.

[Initech]

9. We have overcome a lot of shit in 250 years. We will survive the fascist fucks.

And I hope today is the start of the turn around! He won't listen to reason or do the right thing. We have to kick his ass hard and I hope he got the message today.

[CrispyQ]

13. Don't forget, he had to tell ICE to backoff.

Orange, fucking loser.

[ananda]

14. I'm not surprised. No one is going to save us... but us!

We did good today!
