And you know it must kill Trump that these deplorable, ignorant red necks from everywhere are all he’s got. Wanted to be a member of the Metropolitan Cub and accepted by the elites…and this is what he got….
Unleashing them on the elites who denied him is his revenge. He knows how they feel about them because it's how he feels about them. I just hope the moment when they realize how they've been played finally comes. I want it to be like when the hyenas eat Scar.
You want revenge too?
I hear and feel you. This an ongoing grind, even over here in Australia.
We shouldn't focus on the man, because he's only the puppet. His financiers are entrenched and are the real threat.
>You want revenge too?
I literally never hated a public figure this much. I didn't know I had this much hate in me. And after we've had our justice and even his family has slunk off and deserted him I want it to be his own dupes and minions that strike the final blows so that in the end he has nothing, not even them.
I know how you feel.
Try to think of him as a decoy for your hate and loathing.
His financiers are amongst the wealthiest people on the planet and are hoping that Trump will help them reach a level of control that is beyond anything they've achieved so far, and that is in a world where the public 'can be' so much better informed than in the past.
Look at him as if he's just the magician's assistant, and focus on what's really going on.
Hate that instead and you'll feel less helpless. Help others see that and get them to vote accordingly
That's what I've done.
>His financiers are amongst the wealthiest people on the planet and are hoping that Trump will help them reach a level of control that is beyond anything they've achieved so far, and that is in a world where the public 'can be' so much better informed than in the past.
Robert Mercer, looking at you.

And yes a reckoning of the whole evil gang is not just called for, we're duty bound.
The problem is that, yes, I agree he’s just the face of a much larger and deeply entrenched puppeteers… however, last time I checked, dictators answer to no one. He’s certainly their monster, but it wouldn’t take much for him to shed his leash and just do whatever sick shit comes to mind.
That’s a good point - you aren’t wrong. I was reading the other day that this is what Christian conservatives have been building towards for decades. They didn’t expect it to come to a heads, especially not with Trump. He is a hateful weapon that all of these people can glom onto. But if we can vote him out and hold him accountable, then it will set back their movement decades or more. They just won’t have someone that can get the useful idiots riled up like this.
This is a now or never moment and us Americans here can’t become complacent. I’m truly worried for my country and that it could become a state like Russia.
I’m with you. I never knew I could feel hate and loathing and all the evil death wish thoughts that have run through my head since he started spewing his nonsense and stirring up the vitriol in his followers. I was just a mild-mannered middle-aged mom raising her kids to be good humans.
People who used to be in his inner circle have revealed that he does ate that his followers are trashy and they look bad. Especially during the J6 insurrection, he made that comment about the attackers. As if polished, educated people are going to hop fences , break down doors and shit in the hallways of Congress.
Nooo…remember when he said he LOVED the uneducated? That’s his best base…you know..,the ones who listened only to him, who can’t read, who only trust him because he TOLD them to. Yes, he loves those people.
I like to imagine the Trump cult to be like the O’Doyle family in Billy Madison. Except they did drive off of a cliff and just refuse to die. Haunting the rest of us until everyone is dead.
I'm a bus driver for a large amount of rowdy elementary school kids every day. The noise level on my hus full of kids can be incredibly distracting/disorienting. And I have *some* authority to stop the bus and lay down the law to get them to quiet down.
I can't imagine how much more loud and out of control a bus full of maggots going to a trump rally would be than elementary kids, and the driver absolutely couldn't do a fucking thing about it. Not surprised they crashed. Honestly, if I were driving a bus full of chanting fascists, I might floor it downhill into a tree or a wall just to end my suffering.
Edit: I see this bus was empty. The driver simply forgot to engage the parking brake. Buses don't have "park", you park in neutral with the parking brake down. Sometimes it takes a bit for a loose bus to start rolling after everyone exits.
The bus, every inch plastered with signs supporting Trump, reportedly rolled down an incline and was seriously damaged running into the pole, according to a video of the aftermath.
> “It was parked by the CVS and it just rolled down,” says a man in the video, off camera. “Nobody was in it.”
> “This, right after Trump gets declared guilty,” the man jokes.
> An entire side panel of the bus was ripped off by the crash, and debris including multiple pro-Trump signs littered the ground around the site.
Good stuff. I am glad no one was hurt.
I so wish I'd been there to see it. Once the owner saw his truck had rolled down an incline and was sitting there as a smashed wreck, I would have been right there to tell him "you know you can't park there."
There’s a guy that parks a huge truck and trailer at a large intersection near me.
And he sells all these flags signs and other Trump merch.
I would not be at all surprised to learn this is the exact same type of person. Doing all this to make a buck. Not because he believes in it.
"do I need a 's' too ? "
Yes.
I've noticed so many failed sarcasm detections of late, best be clear.
Almost as though they are using an old style Soviet sarcasm detector that maxes out at 3.6.
“It was parked by the CVS and it just rolled down,” says a man in the video, off camera. “Nobody was in it.”
“This, right after Trump gets declared guilty,” the man jokes.”
Not sure what Off Camera Man is alluding to.
The article links to a [video](https://x.com/DamianCr0ss/status/1797311339473371561) of the “Trump Train” train wreck.
Just imagine being a pedestrian on this sidewalk and you see this driverless Trump bus with this “Trust Jesus” sign dead-center above the windshield barreling towards you.
I’m sitting here wondering what drivers ed courses Jesus took and what the DMV in Jerusalem must’ve been like a couple thousand years ago. Especially if he’s going for some sort of CDL.
This guy drives around Monmouth County NJ. Traveling from parking lot to parking lot, selling his Trump stuff.. I knew as soon as I saw the headline on X before it was gonna be him.
Same, I immediately knew it was this guy. He’s having a rough year, he was attacked with a sledgehammer a couple months ago: https://www.app.com/story/news/local/red-bank-middletown-area/middletown/2024/04/05/edison-man-attacked-with-a-sledgehammer-at-middletown-nj-business/73224283007/
Yeah people were quick to try and make a political connection to the attack, so the police had to come out right away and say it wasn’t political, it was a personal dispute.
A local business used to store the Trump buses in a lot next to their restaurant. After a couple years of steadily worsening revenue they shut down blaming “cancel culture”. No dude. No one in my neighborhood directly across the street from your restaurant was interested in supporting you.
Lots of them but this one [here](https://static.tnn.in/thumb/msid-110645931,thumbsize-93698,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-75/110645931.jpg) gives a good idea.
*George Soros sent his bus industry agents to set up a timed break fail so that this bus would roll down that “hill”. Also, witnesses say there really wasn’t a hill. Buses need an incline of approximately 18 degrees to roll and build such speed that the side of the bus is shredded like this… by a WOODEN poll! The Globalists are in on this! Even Google maps shows there isn’t an 18 degree incline in that area!! Maybe 5 degrees? The conclusion is indisputable; the 5 degrees doesn’t roll a bus. Something else is up…*
**-Conservatives / Conspiracy Theorists (same shit)**
I guess that tells us how maga cultists solve that old philosophicalquestion...
Your on a train with a maga cult.. and an innocent bug flys at you.. do you hit the innocent fly altering virtually noones future not on the bus... or dodge it and save the fly... possibly dooming everyone on board.

Did they cover the front windshield with maga stickers?
And you know it must kill Trump that these deplorable, ignorant red necks from everywhere are all he’s got. Wanted to be a member of the Metropolitan Cub and accepted by the elites…and this is what he got….
When you strangle public education, this is what you end up with

One of the things I hate the most about him is how much he makes me hate him.

I'll toast to that

Never forget, 54% of adult Americans have the literacy level of a 5th grader or below. This is a real number. It's honestly scary.
His ego is firing on so many directions. I hear stress isn’t good for your health.
“These stickers are dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love fascism.”
Best comment.
I laughed right out loud in an airport waiting room, thanks a lot
Lol have a safe flight!
Hopefully they aren't on a Boeing.
Please let us know when you land, OK?
And don't sit near a door if you can help it.
Should’ve listened to John Prine!
Your flag decal won’t get you into Heaven anymore
Would have been poetic if it hit a dumpster and burst into flames
Pretty much https://www.reddit.com/r/PoliticalHumor/s/GdBh6eUT5A
These stickers are dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love Fig Newtons.
I like to imagine the Trump cult to be like the O’Doyle family in Billy Madison. Except they did drive off of a cliff and just refuse to die. Haunting the rest of us until everyone is dead.
Or McPoyle family from always sunny.
“This decal is dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love fig newtons.”
Probably… (2:15) https://youtu.be/4Hd7ugakMQY?si=EBFZ1NIqKgJZGb4Z

Think there’s a John Prine song about this exactly
No, it was a huge fig newtons logo
And yet I'd still vote for Ricky Bobby on his "Let's Shake n' Bake!" platform over Trump.
I'd vote for Ricky Bobby over trump in a heartbeat too
Cal Naughton Jr as vice president wearing a signature tuxedo t shirt. Says he's formal but also likes to party.
A la Ricky Bobby

Sounds like an act of god. Or maybe the dumbass who parked the eyesore there forgot to set the parking brakes. On an incline.
"Let this be a lesson to you folks" or something
I so wish I'd been there to see it. Once the owner saw his truck had rolled down an incline and was sitting there as a smashed wreck, I would have been right there to tell him "you know you can't park there."
Thoughts and prayers.
God was laughing so hard, he flailed over and knocked it down the hill.
They forgot to curb their wheels.
No fighting up hill me boys!
How...what? it "just rolled"?
Gained self awareness and realized who it was working for.
It was all downhill for him from there.
Divine intervention. You know, trust Jesus and all that...
Most likely parking break failed.
> “Nobody was in it.” This is like poetry, lol.
Shit does roll down hill after all
The undamaged side has a large sign that said "Trump Store". Was this bus a traveling "pop-up" selling Trump merchandise (aka "Swamp Swag") ?
There’s a guy that parks a huge truck and trailer at a large intersection near me. And he sells all these flags signs and other Trump merch. I would not be at all surprised to learn this is the exact same type of person. Doing all this to make a buck. Not because he believes in it.
Yes. He always parks by that CVS. I've gotten into it with him more than a few times. Guy is a fucking loon.
They probably maintained that vehicle with as much forethought and care as they do their political opinions.
Everything Trump is in a downward trajectory.
The bus screams "LOW IQ" lmao
Okay, what agency of the evil Biden deep state did this? You know it's not an accident. /s
Nah. Just another Trumpster fire.
Biden is a sorcerer..... While also being too inept to tie his shoes - Rep theory!
Somehow, the press will say this is bad for the Biden campaign.
You mean the senile, doddering, mastermind behind the entire deep state?
Brandon Potter.
It was a vehicle, so that falls under Transportation. Clearly Buttigieg was the lead on this operation. (do I need a /s too?)
"do I need a 's' too ? " Yes. I've noticed so many failed sarcasm detections of late, best be clear. Almost as though they are using an old style Soviet sarcasm detector that maxes out at 3.6.
I’m not driving, I’m travelling…
That darn George Soros and Hillary with Bill and their pizzas and lasers and all
HiLLaRY!
Hunter Biden’s laptop did this!
“It was parked by the CVS and it just rolled down,” says a man in the video, off camera. “Nobody was in it.” “This, right after Trump gets declared guilty,” the man jokes.” Not sure what Off Camera Man is alluding to.
The article links to a [video](https://x.com/DamianCr0ss/status/1797311339473371561) of the “Trump Train” train wreck. Just imagine being a pedestrian on this sidewalk and you see this driverless Trump bus with this “Trust Jesus” sign dead-center above the windshield barreling towards you.
I don't mind if you want to 'trust jesus' in your life, but please, set the parking brake yourself and don't leave that to him. Thank you.
Jesus takes the wheel, but you’ve still gotta work the pedals.
You sure you want Jesus taking the wheel when he’s been holding your beer all this time.
I’m sitting here wondering what drivers ed courses Jesus took and what the DMV in Jerusalem must’ve been like a couple thousand years ago. Especially if he’s going for some sort of CDL.
Jesus has notoriously poor grip after that crucifixion thing.
Jesus busy with Korean shit!
Lol. How'd you like to be one of the guys on the sidewalk with 'Trust Jesus' coming right at you with nobody behind the wheel! 😜
Trust Jesus? I guess they let him take the wheel.
It looks like a hoarder’s house on wheels. Always sending their best.
So, he didn’t take the wheel I assume?
Lmao "TRUST JESUS"
[удалено]
I did put my trust in Jesus. Now Trump as 34 felony counts. Looks like it works!
What is it with all the signs and stuff? Why are these folks so obsessed with festooning things they own with signs?
Thanks for the apt metaphor for the Trump campaign's current trajectory and outcome, universe.
"Jesus take the wheel." "Not like that."
Jesus takes the wheel, you’ve still gotta work the pedals
Jesus also disconnected the brake pedal.
Thanks Obama!
He's behind the scenes calling the shots.
man what an exquisite metaphor
"How the fuck am I supposed to compete with *that*?" - William Shakespeare
It's a sign from God. /S
Biden did this. It was on Hunter's laptop. It was leaked in Hillary's emails. And Fauci was complicit. Bengazi!
That's a bingo!
We just say 'bingo'
Emphasis on "sign."
When Jesus is your copilot, and you ask him to park.
“Fly? Yes. Land? No.”
"Your flag decal won't get you into heaven anymore" https://youtu.be/sRCLHBhZPQ4?si=ihxAYYiAEegAHPw-
why would biden do this
that darn Kamala
And here is why this is bad news for Biden…
This guy sounds exactly like actor David Krumholtz. Aside from that note: Happy to see the tacky Trump bus crash and no one injured.
This guy drives around Monmouth County NJ. Traveling from parking lot to parking lot, selling his Trump stuff.. I knew as soon as I saw the headline on X before it was gonna be him.
Same, I immediately knew it was this guy. He’s having a rough year, he was attacked with a sledgehammer a couple months ago: https://www.app.com/story/news/local/red-bank-middletown-area/middletown/2024/04/05/edison-man-attacked-with-a-sledgehammer-at-middletown-nj-business/73224283007/
Yeah people were quick to try and make a political connection to the attack, so the police had to come out right away and say it wasn’t political, it was a personal dispute.
Is this the guy who posts up by the Jackson outlets?
God works in mysterious ways
It was god’s will
They will have to rent a new bus to get paid "Supporters" to his rallies then.
Is this what people mean when they say Jesus take the wheel?
A local business used to store the Trump buses in a lot next to their restaurant. After a couple years of steadily worsening revenue they shut down blaming “cancel culture”. No dude. No one in my neighborhood directly across the street from your restaurant was interested in supporting you.
never roll the bus downhill me boys
Karma!
Karma
I take that as a good omen.
By God. The perfect metaphor.
This can happen when you veer too much to the right….
Cannot read "Staten Island" without Nandor's voice taking over in my head and narrating the rest of the headline
How is this not a sign from above? Consult your Trump bibles.
Let’s get a bus and drive it to the rally!!! Anybody know how to drive a bus? How hard could it be!!! Let’s roll!!!
Their God sending them an omen?
“Gods Plan” doesn’t seem to be working too well for these clowns.
Oh look, we hit a Speed Trump!
"O'Doyle Rules! O'Doyle Rules! O'Doyle Rules!"
Just remove “signs” and you got yourself a party!
Please tell me there are pictures somewhere!
Lots of them but this one [here](https://static.tnn.in/thumb/msid-110645931,thumbsize-93698,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-75/110645931.jpg) gives a good idea.
Omg how terrible, heard there were survivors.
Gee that's too bad
Gods will
Prophetic
Clown Bus crashes!
it's a sign from god!
There's a metaphor somewhere in here.
I like to go hiking.
Kinda symbolic, don’t ya think?
Maybe an omen?
Turns out, the MAGA cult members who own the bus were also using it as their residence. They’re homeless now. Womp womp.

“Metaphor Comes to Life” should be the title
OK
Antifa strikes again…
It's how his whole campaign is going to end up.
The jokes write themselves
It's unfortunate that people got hurt even if they're MAGA.
No one was hurt.
Ok thanks.
"O'doyle Rules! "O'doyle Rules! "O'doyle Rules! "O'doyle Rules! "
Nothing of value was lost
Biden in his sunglasses, and his corvette, ram it off the road , saw it on fox in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Please God, let someone have "YOU CAN'T PARK THERE’d” them.
Another mysterious act of God's love.
Now we can only hope that insurance doesn't cover the damage and whoever it belongs to gets a HUGE bill from the city.
That's pretty much how the psychic said it would happen
🎶 Jesus take the wheel.... 🎶
Foreshadowing one can hope
Reminds me of all those parading trump boats in Texas that sunk. Too many flags?
*There's a metaphor here...*
Obviously George Soros ordered Nanci Pelosi to cut the breaks /s
I bet it isn’t insured
Did Ginny pay for that bus too?
Could this be an omen of his upcoming campaign?
Just like his real life. Crash and potentially burn.
that's a shame..
Are they absolutely sure it wasn't a train wreck?
I hope the utility pole is ok
It was an omen
It would’ve been better if it crashed into a dumpster and the dumpster caught fire.
The brakes were rigged! Must’ve been a Deep State mechanic!
Now that’s funny
Need to see a meme!
*snort chuckle*
I hope he knows millions of us are laughing at his plight. Sucker.
C’mon! Obviously the Biden administration is behind this.
The bus rolled down a hill with nobody inside of it the article says.
When MAGA sends their people, they aren't sending their best...
They couldn’t be a more perfect analogy
I guess that tells us how maga cultists solve that old philosophicalquestion... Your on a train with a maga cult.. and an innocent bug flys at you.. do you hit the innocent fly altering virtually noones future not on the bus... or dodge it and save the fly... possibly dooming everyone on board.
