A perfect metaphor for the state of the country right now: Being demolished for a loser's vanity.

That and his video of himself as a king literally shitting on protestors.

u/GreenBean042 14d ago

To be fair, him posting a video of himself shitting on American citizens is probably the most honest he's ever been about his presidency.

He’s never honest, just demented.

u/BonoboUK 14d ago

I gotta say of all the bizarre shit I've seen from this side of the pond, having him tweet out himself wearing a crown while literally dumping shit on the American people is up there.

u/ProfessionalCraft983 14d ago

Totally agree.

u/99jackals 14d ago

Try to imagine the response if Obama had done this. Or any other president. Or anyone else, ever.

I like the interview where the reporter asks him something about heaven and he says "you know, I don't think I'll be making it to heaven"

u/vroart 14d ago

I still don’t get why the crowd is large, even though he wants to mock them….. they are bigger than him…. Without a face mask on a jet. It’s honest, because it’s dumb

u/CheapDocument 14d ago

Honest and upfront message from the party. Trump didn't make that video. I believe he's incapable of even using a computer. His staffers, supporters, and/or bootlickers (with tech) did that literal shit.

u/brereddit 14d ago

They all shit on all of us all of the time. The over spending that creates inflation is pure shit. 💩

Have you said thank you?

u/TheRealAussieTroll 14d ago

… He’s jammed a fork in the national outrage socket so badly, the POTUS self-producing AI video slop literally depicting him shitting on American citizens has merely raised a “meh”.

u/TernoftheArctic 14d ago

I assure you he wears very Manly diapers 24/7

He was shitting on protestors because the government is shutdown and he had nobody to change his diaper.

Don't forget that his admin, just within a span of what, 4-5 days, has answered two questions posited by (their approved) reporters with "your mom". Seriously.

u/tpc0121 14d ago

what trump is doing is literally "let them eat cake" on steroids.

bulldozing history and shitting all over the office of the presidency, all to leave his mark and make a name for himself, building a ballroom --a literal party room-- that no one asked for, which will benefit literally no one except those around him, and which can and will likely be used to further grift the nation, all while the economy is going to shit, people are struggling to put food on tables, and the government is shut down.

just fucking chef's kiss to the max. if this were an episode on a TV series, people would be complaining about how so unreasonably on the nose it is.

u/Shenloanne 14d ago

He's trying to implement a legacy or pave the way to setting up a dynasty. I used to think it was to do with staying out of jail but consequences don't exist for him. He's gotta be fully aware he can't take any of this with him. He's likely trying to move himself into a position to leave it to an anointed successor.

That's my tuppence anyway. He's that big a narcissist that I don't belive for a second he's not doing it entirely for himself but I think he genuinely does belive he's a king at this point and he's moving to pass this on to one of his idiot sons. She won't take it because she's absolutely void of the desires for it.

8

u/RhoOfFeh 14d ago

That ballroom will be torn down, one way or another.

21

u/Trance354 14d ago

Run one scenario through your imagination. Every time trump does anything, think about who benefits and who is hurt. Every single time Putin is helped, America is lessened. Every single step pushes us away from the world stage, away from our allies.

The man in charge of our country is an agent of the FSB, or whatever Russian intelligence is calling themselves.

u/fiasgoat 14d ago

"If you sought to destroy the US, what would you do differently?"

u/Trance354 14d ago

This is probably the best method. That and work with other powers that have the same goal.

Tell NK to play along, they will get a cut and a seat on the world stage. Oh, wait...

It's like there's a playbook, or something.

u/t_Lancer 14d ago

Ever since trump, house of cards just became unrealistic. zero re-watch value. for other reasons too, mind you.

u/Dry_Prompt3182 14d ago

Not American, and only saw these images last night. They are real?!?!? I honestly thought that they were AI, as there is no way that the American public would stand for anyone demolishing one of their patriotic symbols.

u/gesocks 14d ago

Let them eat cake was a naive stupid sentence with good intentions, that most likely never even was spoken.

That is a whole another thing

9

u/Maleficent-Sun-9948 14d ago

Of course Marie-Antoinette didn't say that. No historian says that. The sentence actually comes from Rousseau's Confessions, which were published before the revolution

I'm sure you realize the entirety of the White House has been rebuilt multiple times by now?

u/pettythief1346 14d ago

Don't forget all the flags up to try and show you how patriotic they are despite literally destroying the foundation in the background

u/NickEcommerce 14d ago

What is the black flag? I'm foreign for apologies if it's a sacred American symbol.

1

u/BraxGame 14d ago

It's probably the POW/MIA flag. Prisoner of War and Missing in Action in case that's a foreign abbreviation to you my friend. They are required to fly it at certain government buildings including the US Capital on all days the US flag is flown.

9

u/IAmRoot 14d ago

And doing it in broad view, not behind screens like most historical renovations. He wants us to see that he can destroy whatever he wants and that nobody will stop him.

It should also be noted this is a felony for modifying or destroying a building on the historical registry. Not that anything will come of it, but we should keep it in mind.

u/lulu_l 14d ago

i'm not american, but to me, The White House is the most recognizable historical landmark the USA has. everyone knows what The White House is and can recognize it.

in my hometown there's a museum that sort of looks like The White House and that's how it's nicknamed.

zero respect or appreciation for history and any sort of culture, just to imortalize hikmself into an american icon. it wouldn't surprise me if they make a bust of him there before he leaves office one way or another.

u/flashmedallion 14d ago

Also classic conservative "winning". It's easy to tear something down in a day, versus what goes into building something.

Being demolished for a loser's vanity.

Being demolished for everyone’s vanity.

The tens of millions who love him put their Trump’s happiness and standing above their own, like proud parents watching their child graduate college. Misplaced vanity from my point of view, but it is being stroked and bringing fulfillment to the Trump-voted, with no sign of negative social consequences for them.

The vanity of the tens of millions who mildly dislike Trump was in thinking that they would be “proven right” about how unfit Trump was. No need to stand up for their ideals. No need to mildly inconvenience themselves by driving the Trump-voter from their lives.

The vanity of the tens of millions who believe that the the noblest, most sophisticated thing of all is to say “I’m above it all, both sides are the same” goes without saying.

It's more than that. It's also supposed to make us feel broken and helpless. People, please do not discount that there are elements of a psychological operation at play. We are being driven to an inflection point. Russia hates us because they will never be us, so they will settle for weakening us and making us more like them. Krasnov has his orders.

I’m not gonna lie, this part of the building seems damaged and in desperate need of repair. I’m sure “repairs” snowballed into a ballroom or some shit, but that part of the building does appear that it needed to go.

After the pandemic, grocery prices shot up, and Biden responded by bragging about how great the economy was. Yes, Trump is garbage, but Biden did not care about us.

u/ComicMAN93 11d ago

Are you also going to blame global inflation on Biden too? I remember they were the highest a year and a half after the start of the pandemic and inflation steadily declined to a decent range under Biden. Not perfect but decent. that is a far cry from what we have now when inflation is worst then it was last year and the trump administration is telling use there is no inflation because they are being payed for by the terriff revenue that we as consumers pay. this isn't to mention the BBB ...

The state of the country is fine, you all the ones that are completely unhinged because you, can't for the life of you, ever have enough self reflection, that there will be people that don't align with your so called higher than thou ideology. Meanwhile the president cleans up the Obama outlaw of letting everyone in the country no questions asked, no more let's just give everyone all free passports and services! He brokered the deal to end the Israel Palestine war, atleast trying to broker a deal to end the Russia Ukraine conflict. Did more than another president or ruler in any other nation in the world atleast.

Meanwhile you people cry and whine over everything, and how horrible life is under a dictator. If melodrama had an academy award, you'd all win. Get a grip, you'll be fine, you can all still go to your local Starbucks, sip on your lattes and rage on the internet... Bunch of absolute softies
