Can someone shoot the president to detract from the president shitting himself?

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago

Yeah, but they'll miss and then that'll be a distraction from stealing the midterms

You're just too scared of getting even more evidence that our glorious god king heals faster than wolverine, like that time his ear and 37% of his head got shot off, and then the next day he played a perfect round of golf and cured cancer!

(Have to add /s, because that actually sounds like something a magat would say with a dead straight face... ๐Ÿ˜’ )

Best I can do is bomb Venezuela.

[-] DaMummy@hilariouschaos.com 5 points 1 day ago

Or at least shit on the president.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Just like Call of Duty. So cool, huh?

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago

Call of doody?

Yes, dumping a dump truck of shit on him. Great idea. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

To have a pedophile USA president and you wait the elections or the Epstein files lol. You are cooked.

[-] zbyte64@awful.systems 55 points 1 day ago

We also will kidnap the leader of another country as a distraction

[-] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 27 points 1 day ago

NGL I completely forgot that happened for the past week. I can't believe he's still in custody and nothing's happened lately.

Oh no the distraction works...

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 10 points 1 day ago

Flood the zone with shit. That is what it's called. Steve Bannon is supposed to have come up with it. Seems to be working well I think.

And bait the rest of the world into World War II 2, Electric Boogaloo

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 46 points 1 day ago

nothing of this is a distraction. it's all just fascism.

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 22 points 1 day ago

Yep. Not being able to keep up with all the facism doesn't mean any of it are distractions.

[-] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 day ago

Like with phone call scams, being paralyzingly overwhelming is the point.

[-] pedz@lemmy.ca 25 points 1 day ago

Yes , that's how Trump and his administration operates. Whether it's on purpose or just the product of a chaotic idiot, that's how it works. Every day is a shit show to make people forget the previous shit show. It's how they can do anything without consequences.

[-] SalmiakDragon@feddit.nu 16 points 1 day ago

Oh, we know it's intentional. "Flood the zone" on Wikipedia

[-] Widdershins@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

I can't be the only person who looked at the top right corner to see how much brown mana it cost to cast this.

[-] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Shart of the deal

[-] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Then play the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.

[-] PwnTra1n@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

The Aristocrats!

[-] adubya@feddit.online 3 points 1 day ago

Why is AI trying to make Bobby Kennedy look like a bespectacled Texan & as well as Doug and Dr. Oz younger than they are?

[-] Etterra@discuss.online 3 points 1 day ago

American here: It sounds like the Germans have it spot on.

[-] kennedy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

or they're just that incompetent. Not everything is a conspiracy

[-] mrmisses@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

I thought trump announcing he wants to rig the elections was a distraction from shitting himself and the new Epstein stuff released
