She wasn't fake smiling, Donald. She was laughing at you.

[–] hOrni 73 points 2 months ago (3 children)

If I remember correctly, she literally bursted out laughing when he got to the cats thing. I know I did.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting 44 points 2 months ago

Imagine the profound satisfaction of it being your job to look him in the eye and say shit that'll drive him crazy, and if you make him look dumb enough you get to be the president.

I'm not mentally well enough to even contemplate that level of self actualization right now.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can't make out what she mouths later, but her exclamation as she laughed was "Oh come on..."

[–] Lost_My_Mind 17 points 2 months ago

I REALLY wish we could have heard what she was thinking when she held back, and instead said "This.......ffffffformer president."

[–] FlyingSquid 3 points 2 months ago

The look on her face when she realized that baiting him on crowd sizes was enough to set him off was priceless. It was definitely an "I already won this and it's been less than 10 minutes" look.

Refused to say he supports ukraine and “would end the war in 24 hours”

When asked if he had a healthcare plan, he said he had a “concept of a plan”. and “when we think of one itll be the best.”

So no, he doesnt support ukraine.

And no healthcare plan.

The guy is an idiot.

But DOGS! and CATS! and………..PETS!

I SAW IT ON TV

/cruisecontrol

[–] Lost_My_Mind 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Actually, he was probably watching PAW Patrol.

"It was a whole city, run by dogs, and a dog was the mayor, and another dog was a firefighter! That one was a dallmation of coarse! He had spots. So many spots. People say he has the best spots, no, they really do. You can ask anyone. There was a dog waiter, and a dog resteraunt, and they were eating cats and dogs. It's true. It was very sad. I SAW IT ON TV, OK????!!!!"

Cut to a shot of Harris stiffling laughter from turning into a belly laugh

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Hey, Mayor Goodway isn't a dog.

But yes, the firefighter dog is dalmatian lol

[–] jaybone 6 points 2 months ago

Are any republicans expecting him to have a health care plan?

[–] HocEnimVeni 46 points 2 months ago

"Long practiced facial expressions" every accusation is a confession

[–] [email protected] 34 points 2 months ago

He managed to smile just fine at the 9/11 memorial and at Arlington...

[–] Sanctus 30 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Anyone want to make a botnet to flood Truth Social with? Imagine a tsunami of "concept of a plan" comments. He'd get so angry he'd probably have a stroke.

[–] FauxPseudo 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Any additional traffic would cause a boost in the Trump Media ~~Stock~~ Scam.

[–] Sanctus 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That is a sad truth. Does it have downvotes or dislikes? The potential to drive him insane is astronomical through that attack vector. But yeah it would make him richer and thats an estate we would all be better off without.

Maybe Truth Social should start charging for API access.

[–] FauxPseudo 1 points 2 months ago

But then they might make money and get flooded by bots, therefore unaliving the platform because of all the bots talking to bots.

[–] kholby 4 points 2 months ago

On the one hand, I think it would be hilarious and would definitely piss him off. On the other hand, I don't want any presence on Truth Social, even as a bot.

[–] PedroMaldonado 25 points 2 months ago

What a fucking piece of shit

[–] ngwoo 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)

For anyone wondering the mental institutions thing is because he doesn't know what "asylum" means

[–] FlyingSquid 4 points 2 months ago

Ohhhh! You're right! I never thought about that!

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago (2 children)

What's with the random Words being Capitalized? Is there Some kind of secret Message that He's encoding in his truth Social Posts that i'm not Able to understand?

[–] FauxPseudo 29 points 2 months ago

It's how unhinged Boomers type. They don't know how to use markup but want to emphasize certain words.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's a very special Secret called Illiteracy.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

The Great Illiterati have risen!

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago

Clearly, not actually written by Tr×mp

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago

One thing I love is that he still hasn't managed to come up with a nickname for Kamala Harris that sticks. He's tried Kamabla which failed miserably, and this "Comrade Kamala" is bound to fail too. I can guarantee it bugs him.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Her smile is golden and he knows it.

[–] Lost_My_Mind 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Everytime I've ever seen his smile, he always looks like he's forcing it because he has some pin digging into the back of his neck. And the only way to get the pin out is to try to smile convincingly, but it still hurts like hell.

That's his smile. Everytime.

[–] FlyingSquid 3 points 2 months ago

Oh I've seen him smile convincingly:

I mean you'd smile too if you met your rich Hitler bro. Even if he is one of THEM.

Butthole pics get more likes on Twitter

Trump's denial cycle:

  • Grossly overestimate your abilities
  • Don't make any work or effort whatsoever to prepare
  • Do or say something that makes you look like a complete idiot in front of everyone
  • Blame it on someone or something else and/or pretend that it didn't happen and/or that you were misunderstood and/or you were taken out of context and/or you were joking or being sarcastic because how could you make such a mistake if you are so smart? (you are here)
  • pretend that your opponent is the one who did it
  • cling onto that delusion and pile on the conspiracy theories
  • cycle repeats when he inevitably does something else stupid.

No! I won the debate trump, don't you remember?

Nice to meat you (get, it pets?).

[–] WhatYouNeed 2 points 2 months ago

I'm Spartacus, and so is my wife!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

and long practiced facial expressions

Disclaimer: This is not meant to be a dig at any of the Neuro-diverse people out there.

You know that whole "every lie is a confession" thing? I really wouldn't be surprised if Trump or any of his kids have either performed or been recommended working on facial expressions as a therapeutic exercise in empathy.

I've got nothing against people who struggle with emotions and empathy, but I'm also just as upset when they try to attain tyranny as any other person.

[–] hdnsmbt 12 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You all make your little jokes while you forget what it's really all about:

THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS!

[–] pingveno 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Or as one sausage restaurant sign nows says:

IMMIGRANTS EAT OUR DOGS

Someone should ask on if he has a concept of a plan to make America great again.

Trump didn't write that. No way.

[–] pyre 8 points 2 months ago

i saw the debate and thought wow, men are so emotional! we can't let a man lead the country.

[–] thewebroach 7 points 2 months ago

Why does that moron use random capital letters and average 3-5 commas per sentence? He writes like a 10 year old.

[–] SassyRamen 6 points 2 months ago

What's to smile about on Nov 5th? Are we making a human centipede out of Trump and his 3 Supreme Court judges?

[–] Burn_The_Right 5 points 2 months ago

Thank god his base can't read.

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF 2 points 2 months ago

Is Fox full of radical left lunatics, and if not, why not debate there.

Maybe Harris can debate Chase on Fox, and they spend much of the time mocking Trump's fear of debates.
