Even after everything weve seen from the current occupant of the White House, I just cant believe that I live in a country where the leader of the nation and the free world mocks protests against him by posting a video of himself wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens. I mean as much as Ive ever disagreed with many Republicans I never thought theyd stoop to such childish behavior. And to act like hes the king and shitting on the peasants is quite a message to be sending.

(67,876 posts)I read that paper every day and I am hyper conscious of any pro-trump sentiment at all. In fact, I LOOK for it, I am suspicious. I don't think they are dedicated like we are but most of what I read there is fairly straight. They do have pro-Trumpers but I can weed them out fast every morning and sometimes go on DU and complain about it.

(3,386 posts)They own it, too. No calling him out, no distancing. The stench is on all of the Republicans, too. Im ashamed of that video as an American. No Republican is ashamed of the man they chose to serve as their leader? And we were supposed to feel badly because Secy. Clinton termed some of them deplorable? Puh-leeze.

(9,533 posts)so him and his sick sycophants can invoke the Insurrection Act to remain in power to keep serving putin's interests.
So, in order to "spark" just a start of a violent rebellion (not peaceful protests but a real violent one like J6), that's what he thinks can "spark" one.

(1,392 posts)He flaunts every law, every rule of decorum. diplomacy, sanity and ethics. He is a thirty-four times convicted felon, sexual assailant, and yet he feels he is above the law, and unfortunately, up to this point, has proven that to be the case. I cannot believe we have such a despicable creature as our president. What the pure unconditional hell...?

Every single one of them presents as a decent person but every single one of them would shit on a Democrat if they thought they could get away with it.

(2,904 posts)He is far more dangerous than that. The AI video of him wearing a crown and dumping poop was actually brilliant. It (childishly) ridiculed the protest movement using satire to strike at the heart of its message. For his followers it provides humor and makes the protests less serious. For us, it riles us up and changes the topic.
One of these days our elected leaders will figure this out and how to create a foil for his tactics. Newsome has come closest, but even he misses the mark most days.

(7,520 posts)and that means just like 2 yo's, they feed off each other. Who can be the most asinine and stupidly offensive. Potty jokes are the love of just older than toddlers... we know what the mental age is now of EVERYONE in our government. Is it surprise we're going to end up ranked last... or at least, near last... in a list of countries for where people want to live?! I mean, if I could physically (and had the money) I'd basically give up and move elsewhere right now. This government ended for me back in Nov 2016!
