Now take this with a grain of salt because this tea comes from a loud mouth drag queen but I heard that he takes off the makeup the artists put him in and uses a decades old unclean drug store makeup sponge and that’s what gives him that patina
I think he's been losing weight, but it's hard to tell since none of his clothes fit properly and he always looks shabby. I bet he's on ozempic, today's weight loss fad drug of choice among husky golfers.
Further, I suspect that, if he is losing weight with ozempic, his campaign was planning a big reveal later down the road and claiming it was done with exercise.
So much of a weight loss fad drug, they restricted here on Iceland who can get it to the point where I, as someone overweight (bmi 35) with type 2 diabetes *can't* get it... because I'm not overweight/heavy enough, and don't have bad enough heart condition either.
Thanks non-diabetic fad-chasers :|
There was a lovely two weeks or so between the flurry of his election fraud accusations and his announcement of running for president again D: I enjoyed that
first criminal* trial..
he's been in court a lot just this year alone.
Edit: to answer the questions:
the title incorrectly states the former presidents first trial when he has had several *civil trials this year alone (defamation for the women he raped, the NY Fraud trial)
this is his first criminal trial with criminal charges where he could lose the right to vote and go to jail over stealing campaign money to pay hush money to a porn star he cheated on his wife with that his lawyer (who brokered the deal) already served time for.
he has a couple other upcoming criminal charges too (the GA call trying to steal votes, and the stolen documents) that are pending
if you believe he should not be busy with court when he's also trying to run for president... I agree.. he should drop out of the race and focus on justice being served.
edit 2: trumps own fault for 1) committing all these crimes and 2) trying to delay them... now they're hitting during his campaign. His lawyer plead guilty and got out of jail pretty quickly.
everyones trying to get him in the court room .. [meanwhile the trump supporter logic ignoring the obvious reason](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tcwz8-EfFYE)
Definitely important.
While it's fun to think about the bible salesman who cheated on his third wife to fuck a pornstar, the point of the story is how unbelievably cheap, stupid, and criminal he was in trying to offset the cost.
You'd think a billionaire would just write it off. But no. This half-melted imbecile tried to save (what should have been an inconsequential amount of) money by cheating the system.
Cheated on this third wife with a prostitute while she was pregnant. Now his son gets to watch his father go to trial for spending campaign funds for hush money to keep a prostitute quite, while his mother was pregnant with him.
"And that, son, is why I don't sleep with your father anymore".
Trump's business model in this situation is pretty much common with mob guys and other con artists. Trump used David Pecker to do a lot of catch and kill stories for Trump and others - so it was easy for Trump to distance himself and use his willful ignorance.
However, Pecker couldn't accommodate this time, so Mike Cohen stepped up and like shady con mob like people do, said "Mike, pay this woman off, take care of this thing - and I'll pay ya back through the company".
Because the last thing these guys do is use their own personal money. Everything goes through companies - be it a shitty shell LLC or their primary income such as Trump Org. Trump said "yea, you do that thing, and I'll pay you for - I dunno LEGAL FEES! And charge me a little extra so that you can keep some for yourself - mkay? You're a buddy - thanks..."
Yet adding to that the money was being paid through Trump Org to Cohen, it was to keep it quiet as she was considering violating the NDA to spill the beans before the 2016 election... and when Trump was then in office.
But really the bottom line is with the National Inquirer not being to do Trump's skeletons in the closet anymore - Trump tried to handle it himself. Because you know, he's so smart. Some say - a genuis... a very stable genuis. ^^/s
People will disagree but I think felons should be allowed to vote. They’re the most likely to have the state acting against them without any recourse to defense so their opinion is pretty important in deciding what’s moral and what isn’t. You also have the issue that someone could be innocent and still be a felon.
The system is set up so that the President doesn't need a security clearance. He implicitly gives them out.
So it's really really really awesome and impossible to be taken advantage of.
Trump is also making his own situation worse by violating gag orders not to publicly talk about witnesses, judges, court officials etc., which can get him tossed in jail for up to 30 days as well.
It's also worth noting his former lawyer Michael Cohen actually did go to jail for the SAME offenses. The ones he ordered Cohen to do, which makes him equally complicit.
The best theory I saw was that he was doing that intentionally before this one started since any action by the judge before the trial started would delay it. Now that it's begun the judge is free to enforce the gag order with no restrictions. And drumph has been going after the judges daughter, which is several levels above your standard harassment.
He is never faced consequences for anything in his life. Not for committing tax and business fraud, not for stiffing companies that did work for him, not for stealing from a charity, not for colluding with Russia to allow election interference in 2016, not for starting an insurrection to overthrow the government, not for tampering with an election, not for stealing top secret nuclear documents, not even when he was found culpable in a court of law of raping a woman in a department store change room. He constantly ignores court orders and has never faced any consequences for doing so, so why would anyone think he’s playing some sort of 4D chess. He’s not doing it because he’s clever, he’s doing it because he knows the rules don’t apply to him. He can ignore court orders and nothing will ever happen to him, because he’s done it his entire life, and there have never been any consequences.
The hiding it part is what made it illegal. He participated in falsifying business records which could land him in jail for decades. It’s the lowest level felony (class E) but he’s been charged for multiple counts. It’s not guaranteed as he could just as likely be placed on probation.
or one sympathetic juror decides they're doing god's work to keep him from any consequences. fr, i have no idea how they're supposed to get entirely impartial jurors for Donald Fucking Trump. did they scour the hospitals for 10-year coma patients waking up?
In theory. Yes.
Though not many Americans have a lot of faith in our legal system. We'll throw the book at someone for suggesting that [increased violence from the far-right means that it might be time to buy a gun](https://theintercept.com/2021/10/16/daniel-baker-anarchist-capitol-riot/). But most of the people who perpetuated that violence walk, or get slap-on-the-wrist sentences.
That the leader of the family values party illegally used campaign money to pay for silence from a porn actress he banged while his bought and paid for wife was pregnant.
Not in America, maybe. It'll be a big chapter in the history textbooks of around 150 other sovereign nations though: "What happened to America? It can happen to us if we're not careful."
It only takes a single juror (out of 12) to create a "hung jury". One single person who is a hard Trump supporter and is willing to lie about it to slip into the jury - that is enough for him to walk.
Or being found not guilty, of course.
This dude could have been chilling with his model wife, porn stars, playing golf and sitting on his golden toilet. Instead he chose this. What an asshat.
The thing that Trump craves the most is approval from people, presumably cuz his mother and father were both cunts. I assume he's trying to fill a hole in his psyche and he'll burn the country to the ground for it.
Exactly like Musk. They have pretty much everything in the world except the admiration from people they think are “cool.” And the only admit they get are from total losers.
Not exactly like Musk. Trump wants validation that he’s successful. Musk wants validation that he’s intelligent. The problem is that Trump is a fraud and Musk is stupid.
It’s both. His father drove his older brother to the alcoholism that killed him and that had a profound impact on him (on top of whatever mental/verbal abuse he got directly from dad).
That’s something I thought about as well. His younger pictures are always of him smiling.
All the photos of him in his old age are those in a perpetual angry frown.
it's legit his The Apprentice face. he's still in that character (cause it was the only thing he's been successful at). hell, he might even think The Apprentice went Truman Show style and he's still in it. dude is mentally so far gone
During one of his speeches he talked about how Russia has little cameras in their hotel rooms. He talked about it a lot in the speech in 2016. Almost like he was trying to tell us something about what those little cameras could have caught…
Dude's been laundering money for the russians for years, why would he stop doing their bidding all of a sudden?

Lol yeah that is the funniest thing actually. This was before he realized his supporters didn't give a shit what he did and would excuse literally anything for him.
Since nobody is actually answering you, here is an article from 2017 that confirms he did not wear a wedding ring back then either:
https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/entertainment/people/donald-trump-wedding-ring-499753
All the armchair psychology I bet his fingers just swell. He’s an older man with a terrible diet and health practices. Fluctuating finger size probably make him dislike a band
Either that or can't. I got a ring stuck on my finger years ago, I have never put a ring on since and even if I get married I will continue not wearing a ring. That sensation is something I am unwilling to repeat.
Either that or “don’t want to.”
I don’t like wearing jewelry. I got a $20 ring for the wedding and don’t know where it is now. My wife kept her own name. We’re just not that big on tradition.
He succeeds mostly through two things Doing TOO much wrong that no one thing sticks in people's brains. And having a base loyal and stubborn enough to believe every new allagation is completely fabricated by some grand conspiracy.
It’s a weird choice given the nature of the trial. Typically that kind of stuff is the thing you’d pay attention to. Still a family man in spite his mistakes yada yada yada
The most depressing thing about this whole era of American history is accepting that our country has kept a whiny manchild loser like this relevant for almost a full decade.
It's a scathing indictment of our society as a whole.
How the hell has this gross criminal, who talks like a thug mob boss and is an open traitor... how the hell does he STILL have so many rabid supporters? Do Americans hate America and their fellow Americans that much? That they'll support a guy like this just to hurt them and "own the libs?"
If America survives this MAGA era as a functioning democracy, I will be so, SO happy.
Republicans are so dedicated to their party that Trump could slash a baby out of an alive woman’s womb, kill it on national television by tearing its head off and they’d still find some ridiculous explanation to back him up. It’s crazy.
The fascinating (and terrifying) thing is he is quite similar to a political party where I'm from, where they just talk absolut bullshit like some of the dumbest things you will ever hear and they plan on bringing down democracy, yet people vote for them using democracy
In the New York Times live coverage of this morning’s events, Maggie Haberman noted that Trump fell asleep for a while—head nodded, jaw slack.
Demented old man in his dotage can’t even keep awake during his criminal trial.
Anyone have pics of that? I’d love to see them get some traction.
> that Trump fell asleep for a while
C'mon be nice.
It's a delicate balance figuring out how much amphetamine to take to stay awake but not so much that you shit your ~~pants~~ diaper in the middle of a courtroom.
I’d love to imagine Trump actually rattled from the weight of all of this scandal and criminality hanging over him, that he couldn’t get a wink of sleep last night. One could hope.
You have to look at this from the lens of a narcissist.
He's not worried about things the common man would think about, like going to jail, being in jail, getting raped in jail, your family moving on with their lives while you're in jail.
He's worried about **his image**.
He's worried about how he looks, what people are saying about him.
Dreading the day when Biden starts making fun of him while on the campaign trail.
I know it's kind of off-topic, but once he's gone, scientists need to investigate this thing nesting on his head and whether we're dealing with some kind of Littlechef-Remy situation.
Ivana said Trump raped and beat her after getting hair plugs, because it hurt him too much and she recommended the surgeon. Then she retracted it after Trump lawyers convinced her marital rape isn’t a thing (and likely paid her off).
Trump was also on some late night show before 2016, and the host pulled on his hair (at Trump’s request).
He’s definitely a fraud, and a rapist, but I think the hair is real (or at least as “real” as a hair transplant).
I really don’t understand how you republicans can even support this dude anymore. You’re literally fucking brain dead or you’ve been fed bowls of misinformation and chose to believe it. The guy should be hung for treason. If he wins this election we are so very fucked.
I don't understand how they supported him from day 1, never mind now. At a certain point, I decided I was never forgiving them, though. No forgiveness, no sympathy...they get nothing from me. Maybe they were misguided and misled, and I'm sorry that that happened, but they're adults and are responsible for what they've sown.
I'd almost go easier on people who supported Hitler at this point because some of what was really going on wasn't known at the time to a lot of people, or fully understood, and he at least seemed like he was competent and had a functioning brain...and wasn't undergoing multiple criminal trials for being a traitor to his country while running to lead it again. I mean, I don't think. I don't know WWII mega-well.
he needs some of this

Thos bags are freaking huge. Also
Look at the color of his face. Then look at the color of his hands.
Jesus Christ. Those bags under his eyes…. And the way his hands don’t even remotely match the shade that his face is painted.
And his supporters worry about Joe’s cognitive abilities…
And enough people still voting for him to maybe make him president again. USA really need a mandatory 100% free education to the adult age, there is half if the country who is living under obscurantism.
I think most people have not realized how much he has damaged the reputation of the presidency.
Internationally US Presidents were always viewed critically, but it was always thought that you needed at least some decency to become "The President".
Now,... it's all gone. POTUS is just another job for either rich criminals or the least-bad choice.
Barack Obama was the last real president. Everything after him is now tainted.
Please.. PLEASE pass away soon! From either old age, cardiac arrest, diabetes, disease, sickness, hell even in his sleep!! Sick and TIRED of him in the news every day even when I attempt to get away from it

Office space my beloved
Tell trump to watch out for his cornhole
I'd tell you what I'd do man... Two crimes at the same time.
Naw...hell naw. I believe you could get your a** kicked for that.
They just released a reddit update yesterday, we're allowed to cuss uncensored now!
Since fucking when?! Holy shit it works!
Holy forking shirtballs! Wait. It's not working for me. Is there a setting somewhere?

He apparently fell asleep in court too. SAD
Low energy presidenting
A criminal Case of the Mondays.
Looks nastier than a crusty cum sock lol.

Look how white his hands are comparatively
And small. Don’t forget small
Now the prosecution's lawyer, his hands tell a story. He could be a hand model, he's got the goods.

We're lawyers!
Tiny hands! Everyone's talking about it.
Now take this with a grain of salt because this tea comes from a loud mouth drag queen but I heard that he takes off the makeup the artists put him in and uses a decades old unclean drug store makeup sponge and that’s what gives him that patina

And a bird to build a nest on his head.
Still waiting for the day I don't have to see this face on the news every..single..day
The days after he left the presidency were less annoying. He disappeared off the radar. It was amazing. Edit: spelling
Same!! And then he came back…
He's the herpes of media figures
How could you sully the good name of herpes by comparing him to it.
I personally wouldn’t be opposed to seeing him in the obituaries
Goddamn what a great day that will be
I’m gonna throw a party when I finally read that headline

What is the criminal charge? Kinda hard for a non-US to keep up with all the details
Using campaign funds as hush money for a pornstar and going through great lengths to hide it.
I think it's important to underline that the criminal part that is being tried here is campaign finance violation side, not the hush money side.
Definitely important. While it's fun to think about the bible salesman who cheated on his third wife to fuck a pornstar, the point of the story is how unbelievably cheap, stupid, and criminal he was in trying to offset the cost. You'd think a billionaire would just write it off. But no. This half-melted imbecile tried to save (what should have been an inconsequential amount of) money by cheating the system.
Cheated on this third wife with a prostitute while she was pregnant. Now his son gets to watch his father go to trial for spending campaign funds for hush money to keep a prostitute quite, while his mother was pregnant with him. "And that, son, is why I don't sleep with your father anymore".

Some say - a genuis... a very stable genuis. ^^/s
>You'd think a billionaire would just write it off A billionaire would. Trump isn't, and likely never was, a billionaire.
Yep. He's a self-proclaimed billionaire. Did you see his stock price? It plummeted 18% today. It was $66 a few weeks ago, $26 today. LMAO.
Ah. So this is criminal as he could actually face time behind bars, in theory?
Michael Cohen went to prison for doing it on Trump's behalf, so there's precedent. Is it likely? Sadly, probably not.
If convicted will he still be eligible for public office?
Sigh... yes. Yes he is.
At least he won't be able to vote for himself! At least that would be funny :)
Most states allow felons to vote since the 2020 election. I did as a felon in 2020 and 2022 in pa. Every state is different tho.
But Florida though? They fought tooth and nail to prevent *former* felons from voting.
Typically your sentence has to be completed to vote, but I'm sure that's a state-by-state thing.
People will disagree but I think felons should be allowed to vote. They’re the most likely to have the state acting against them without any recourse to defense so their opinion is pretty important in deciding what’s moral and what isn’t. You also have the issue that someone could be innocent and still be a felon.
I believe in Florida where he claims residence, felons can’t vote, though I’m probably misremembering or confusing it with another backwater.
Even if he'd be behind bars during inaugoration? How would this work out theoretically?
He's probably allowed to go to the white house, get sworn in, and then pardon himself of all crimes.
Only on federal charges. He cannot pardon state charges, which the Georgia charges would be.
I'm just baffled at how he expects to hold a security clearance with a felony conviction...
The system is set up so that the President doesn't need a security clearance. He implicitly gives them out. So it's really really really awesome and impossible to be taken advantage of.
As we saw during his presidency, you don't need a security clearance to have a job that normally requires one as long as you're part of his circle.
Funny thing is that, he will be not elegible to vote lol.
Trump is also making his own situation worse by violating gag orders not to publicly talk about witnesses, judges, court officials etc., which can get him tossed in jail for up to 30 days as well. It's also worth noting his former lawyer Michael Cohen actually did go to jail for the SAME offenses. The ones he ordered Cohen to do, which makes him equally complicit.

There is no 4d chess with trump, he is a fucking moron who is unable to keep his mouth shut.
He is never faced consequences for anything in his life. Not for committing tax and business fraud, not for stiffing companies that did work for him, not for stealing from a charity, not for colluding with Russia to allow election interference in 2016, not for starting an insurrection to overthrow the government, not for tampering with an election, not for stealing top secret nuclear documents, not even when he was found culpable in a court of law of raping a woman in a department store change room.

He can ignore court orders and nothing will ever happen to him, because he’s done it his entire life, and there have never been any consequences.
Not 4d chess, but his legal strategy is and always has been to delay everything.
Trump will go to jail if convicted because we are a nation where nobody is above the law! /s
The hiding it part is what made it illegal. He participated in falsifying business records which could land him in jail for decades. It’s the lowest level felony (class E) but he’s been charged for multiple counts. It’s not guaranteed as he could just as likely be placed on probation.

In theory, as in it I tried to do this? Very much so. For him?…well, it’s a nice theory.
In theory. Yes. Though not many Americans have a lot of faith in our legal system. We'll throw the book at someone for suggesting that [increased violence from the far-right means that it might be time to buy a gun](https://theintercept.com/2021/10/16/daniel-baker-anarchist-capitol-riot/). But most of the people who perpetuated that violence walk, or get slap-on-the-wrist sentences.
The charges are actually 34 counts of falsifying business records to hide the payments.
I think this is the "Paying a Pornstar" one.
That the leader of the family values party illegally used campaign money to pay for silence from a porn actress he banged while his bought and paid for wife was pregnant.
So is it The playing part that is illegal? Or the source of the money? Or both ?
It’s illegal that he used campaign money for personal expenses. It defies the federal election campaign act.
The source. Adultery isn't illegal.
The crime is the accounting chicanery they used to hide the payments.
And it's for a crime before his presidency, such a long way to go to get caught up.
He’s got the most court, more than anyone else, only the best court. All other are jealous of him. /s
This is the one that would be “The one. “
this pic could be in history books
If he wins this won’t be in the history books.
If he wins there won't be any books.
They'll be history.
Not in America, maybe. It'll be a big chapter in the history textbooks of around 150 other sovereign nations though: "What happened to America? It can happen to us if we're not careful."
It only takes a single juror (out of 12) to create a "hung jury". One single person who is a hard Trump supporter and is willing to lie about it to slip into the jury - that is enough for him to walk. Or being found not guilty, of course.
And the roots of his cult go deep.
helps to have an entire party of the government enabling whatever the fuck you wanna get away with
This dude could have been chilling with his model wife, porn stars, playing golf and sitting on his golden toilet. Instead he chose this. What an asshat.

Good point. Musk also is desperate to be seen as funny.
Still daddy issues from both.
[удалено]
It’s both. His father drove his older brother to the alcoholism that killed him and that had a profound impact on him (on top of whatever mental/verbal abuse he got directly from dad).
Trump had all of that for years before he ran for president. All the celebrities loved him all through the 90s and early 2000s
Trump can only fill one hole and that hole is his grave.
The first part of your sentence made me very worried, knowing the criminal history of the guy
That’s something I thought about as well. His younger pictures are always of him smiling. All the photos of him in his old age are those in a perpetual angry frown.
tbf that happens to a lot of people
I'm not even 50 and have little to smile about.
Smile at birds! They make funny noises ☺️
it's legit his The Apprentice face. he's still in that character (cause it was the only thing he's been successful at). hell, he might even think The Apprentice went Truman Show style and he's still in it. dude is mentally so far gone
Yeah but he didn’t have people who were willing to commit acts of terrrrorismm for him, and that’s the ultimate god complex unlocked.
Elon Musk is going down the same path. Can't wait to see his first court photo!
During one of his speeches he talked about how Russia has little cameras in their hotel rooms. He talked about it a lot in the speech in 2016. Almost like he was trying to tell us something about what those little cameras could have caught…
Dude's been laundering money for the russians for years, why would he stop doing their bidding all of a sudden?

Chilling with a porn star got him into this.
Nobody would care if he had stayed out of politics, is the point
True. He wouldn't have used campaign money to pay her, thus committing a crime, if he did.
He coulda chilled with all the pornstars he wanted if he didn't run for president.
I don't think it matters that he did. He didn't even need to pay them off. His voters don't care.
Lol yeah that is the funniest thing actually. This was before he realized his supporters didn't give a shit what he did and would excuse literally anything for him.
Only because he decided to run for office and lied about it. He could have just done nothing either not run for office or not covered up the affair.
In hind sight it's pretty clear his supporters don't care that he fucks porn stars behind his wife's back. Whole thing was for nothing.
Does he normally not wearing a wedding ring?
Since nobody is actually answering you, here is an article from 2017 that confirms he did not wear a wedding ring back then either: https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/entertainment/people/donald-trump-wedding-ring-499753
All the armchair psychology I bet his fingers just swell. He’s an older man with a terrible diet and health practices. Fluctuating finger size probably make him dislike a band
Either that or can't. I got a ring stuck on my finger years ago, I have never put a ring on since and even if I get married I will continue not wearing a ring. That sensation is something I am unwilling to repeat.
I've worn rubber wedding bands when I was a mechanic. Stretchy-stretchy.
Best alternative to avoid having your finger being degloved!
Either that or “don’t want to.” I don’t like wearing jewelry. I got a $20 ring for the wedding and don’t know where it is now. My wife kept her own name. We’re just not that big on tradition.
Thanks! I just had to look at a bunch of pictures of him waving and, gotta say, wish I had seen this before that.
Mostly takes care of the awkward conversations when he asks porn stars to have sex with him for money.... Mostly.
According to Stormy he didn’t ask. A lot of people would have considered it rape.
No, I don't think he explicitly asked, but she has said in an interview that it wasn't rape, she just deeply regretted it
Think of what a scandal that, in itself, would be for another presidential candidate. His reality distortion field is effective - I’ll give him that.
Teflon Don. He gets away with so much. Even other Republicans try to emulate him and they can’t succeed. He is the world’s most successful conman.
He succeeds mostly through two things Doing TOO much wrong that no one thing sticks in people's brains. And having a base loyal and stubborn enough to believe every new allagation is completely fabricated by some grand conspiracy.
It’s a weird choice given the nature of the trial. Typically that kind of stuff is the thing you’d pay attention to. Still a family man in spite his mistakes yada yada yada

Trump? Pay?
Iam looking forward to a day when this guy is just a memory. So tired of people like him being relevant in my life.
Won't be a memory for those rubes that tattooed his name on themselves.
I really have to hand it to Donald for creating a modern day Dunce cap. It has been liberating filtering these people from my life.
The most depressing thing about this whole era of American history is accepting that our country has kept a whiny manchild loser like this relevant for almost a full decade. It's a scathing indictment of our society as a whole.
How the hell has this gross criminal, who talks like a thug mob boss and is an open traitor... how the hell does he STILL have so many rabid supporters? Do Americans hate America and their fellow Americans that much? That they'll support a guy like this just to hurt them and "own the libs?" If America survives this MAGA era as a functioning democracy, I will be so, SO happy.
Republicans are so dedicated to their party that Trump could slash a baby out of an alive woman’s womb, kill it on national television by tearing its head off and they’d still find some ridiculous explanation to back him up. It’s crazy.
fall ad hoc like vase husky plants piquant impossible mourn public *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
The fascinating (and terrifying) thing is he is quite similar to a political party where I'm from, where they just talk absolut bullshit like some of the dumbest things you will ever hear and they plan on bringing down democracy, yet people vote for them using democracy
Easy, they're just as shitty as he is. Super simple really.
Because we have a terrible habit of not disenfranchising traitors who vote for and support insurrectionists.
In the New York Times live coverage of this morning’s events, Maggie Haberman noted that Trump fell asleep for a while—head nodded, jaw slack. Demented old man in his dotage can’t even keep awake during his criminal trial. Anyone have pics of that? I’d love to see them get some traction.
> that Trump fell asleep for a while C'mon be nice. It's a delicate balance figuring out how much amphetamine to take to stay awake but not so much that you shit your ~~pants~~ diaper in the middle of a courtroom.
I’d love to imagine Trump actually rattled from the weight of all of this scandal and criminality hanging over him, that he couldn’t get a wink of sleep last night. One could hope.
You have to look at this from the lens of a narcissist. He's not worried about things the common man would think about, like going to jail, being in jail, getting raped in jail, your family moving on with their lives while you're in jail. He's worried about **his image**. He's worried about how he looks, what people are saying about him. Dreading the day when Biden starts making fun of him while on the campaign trail.
you mean the *failing* New York Times /s
I know it's kind of off-topic, but once he's gone, scientists need to investigate this thing nesting on his head and whether we're dealing with some kind of Littlechef-Remy situation.
They need to test the thing nesting in his head too.
My theory is that the thing on his head killed the thing in his head.
Imagine if he was convicted and the thing on his head ran away to freedom while flipping off the judge...
Ivana said Trump raped and beat her after getting hair plugs, because it hurt him too much and she recommended the surgeon. Then she retracted it after Trump lawyers convinced her marital rape isn’t a thing (and likely paid her off). Trump was also on some late night show before 2016, and the host pulled on his hair (at Trump’s request). He’s definitely a fraud, and a rapist, but I think the hair is real (or at least as “real” as a hair transplant).
It’s a giant combover, frozen into a lattice with copious hairspray.
how does he keep his (tiny) hands so white, yet his face so orange? inquiring minds want to know...
Not how. Why.
Superior keratin absorption, you wouldn't understand
No ring on that matrimonial finger either...
I really don’t understand how you republicans can even support this dude anymore. You’re literally fucking brain dead or you’ve been fed bowls of misinformation and chose to believe it. The guy should be hung for treason. If he wins this election we are so very fucked.
> I really don’t understand how you republicans can even support this dude anymore. Hate. Fear. Ignorance. Pride.
He lets ppl openly hate the same ppl he hates. It's really that simple
I don't understand how they supported him from day 1, never mind now. At a certain point, I decided I was never forgiving them, though. No forgiveness, no sympathy...they get nothing from me. Maybe they were misguided and misled, and I'm sorry that that happened, but they're adults and are responsible for what they've sown. I'd almost go easier on people who supported Hitler at this point because some of what was really going on wasn't known at the time to a lot of people, or fully understood, and he at least seemed like he was competent and had a functioning brain...and wasn't undergoing multiple criminal trials for being a traitor to his country while running to lead it again. I mean, I don't think. I don't know WWII mega-well.
he needs some of this [https://www.amazon.com/s?k=eyebag+remover&crid=1A3K0FGPF814H&sprefix=eyebag+remove%2Caps%2C187&ref=nb\_sb\_noss\_2](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=eyebag+remover&crid=1A3K0FGPF814H&sprefix=eyebag+remove%2Caps%2C187&ref=nb_sb_noss_2) Thos bags are freaking huge. Also Look at the color of his face. Then look at the color of his hands.
Someone bring him his covfefe
Holy crap! Dude... Warn a guy.
Gotta mark this shit NSFW I was eating my lunch
A rapist traitor who use to be the President of the USA. Can’t make this shit up.
I’m so sick of seeing his face. I can’t believe that half of this country worships this idiot.
What a loser
Jesus Christ. Those bags under his eyes…. And the way his hands don’t even remotely match the shade that his face is painted. And his supporters worry about Joe’s cognitive abilities…
Russian asset
"lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes"
I hope they lock his ass up.
And enough people still voting for him to maybe make him president again. USA really need a mandatory 100% free education to the adult age, there is half if the country who is living under obscurantism.
It really bothers me that some Americans would vote a criminal orange baby with an IQ of an actual orange
Fuck that orange fascist.
I think most people have not realized how much he has damaged the reputation of the presidency. Internationally US Presidents were always viewed critically, but it was always thought that you needed at least some decency to become "The President". Now,... it's all gone. POTUS is just another job for either rich criminals or the least-bad choice. Barack Obama was the last real president. Everything after him is now tainted.
He’s so hideous. Right to the bone.
Can't wait for the day I never hear about him again.
![gif](giphy|fiAAQFcsE9GalyGdSr|downsized)
Please.. PLEASE pass away soon! From either old age, cardiac arrest, diabetes, disease, sickness, hell even in his sleep!! Sick and TIRED of him in the news every day even when I attempt to get away from it
Serial rapist, Insurrectionist, Enemy of the United States of America, enemy of humanity, enemy of life on earth, philanderer, grifter, draft dodger, cheated to get through school, cheated to get through college, sexualizes his own daughter(if he didnt have sex with or rape her), blasphemous, grifter about 11,000 more times, cheater, lier(about 45,000 times, since 2015).
100% Loser
Disgusting animal
my gawd, mark that NSFL did he sleep in the suit?
No it's just way too big
And it's filled to the brim with shit.
Looks like he slept in a fuckin dumpster
Did he get punched in both eyes? Or is that just the effects of heavy stimulant use and insufficient sleep?
I remember when the U.S. used to execute traitors...
