Trump, picking a Fox news host to run the military

"How could this be any worse?"

That motherfucker: takes off shirt

Narrator: "It got worse."

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 81 points 1 year ago

Wait until he opens his mouth and starts talking

[-] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 13 points 1 year ago

Wait until he uses the military to do something even more nefarious than what they usually do around the world

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 75 points 1 year ago

The entire cabinet is something from a comic book. These guys are all cartoonishly evil.

Of course he does. These are all complete garbage human beings. Can't wait to hear the moronic defense of this is somehow not racist.

When does Russia invade to de-nazify the US?

(They already have, comrade. And your citizens voted it in)

Here's another question:

If Russia launched a nuke at the US, would puppet trump use the launch codes?

[-] Jesusaurus@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago

Probably not because he would probably tell Putin to target a major Democratic city center

[-] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 year ago

Dearborn, MI would probably be high on the list.

High Muslim population. Heavy Democratic leaning (except this year. Lol)

One obvious one NYC, but he wouldn't want to hurt his property value.

So, pretty much the entire pacific coast.

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 12 points 1 year ago

The launch codes are 00000 anyway, so...

I had to check if this was a bad freeze frame or what and nope she fires that hand out straight as a goddamn arrow and leaves it like that. She wasn’t caught mid-wave, just straight up doing the ol’ nazi salute.

It’s wild that these people are using the same imagery as the nazis. You’d think that they’d have their own brand as most people aren’t knowingly the bad guys and the ones that are are generally smarter than that but they just can’t fuckin’ help larp as the poster children for worst thing the modern world has dealt with(though more recent times are making it look kinda normal).

If this person gets clearance and is not open about the hate group ties, that can be grounds for prosecution. The big question will be whether or not anyone cares.

[-] billiam0202@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago

The big question will be whether or not anyone cares who has the ability to do anything about it.

[-] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I'm sure AG Gaetz will get right on that

Yeah, the news-media is salivating on all the clicks it's receiving right now.

Almost if it's benefiting them that Trump was elected. Hmm.

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

Couldn't possibly be gaslighting the country about a mentally incapacitated incumbent until 2 months from the election

Trump nominating a Literal Nazi to lead our Military is PROOF that DEMOCRATS were Overreacting!

"Trump Accountability War Room". Because suddenly presidential accountability is VERY important.

.....wait, what?

Also, using the term "war room" for everything. Peak USA.

Reminds me of Putin and his buddy Dmitry Utkin, initial founder of the Wagner mercenary group with multiple tattoos that show the symbol of the Waffen-SS, as well as other Nazi symbols.

I found the documentary "Bad Faith" to be quite enlightening. Highly recommend it:

https://www.badfaithdocumentary.com/

Edit: For understanding more of the context of white christian nationalism, white supremacy, etc

No one should be surprised, this book was written 12 years ago:

"Irregular Army: How the US Military Recruited Neo-Nazis, Gang Members, and Criminals to Fight the War on Terror"
