    GOP in 2016 We need Trump because the rest of the world is laughing at us.

    GOP in 2024 Who cares what the rest of the world thinks about us?

      Tbh I think the world was already laughing in 2016. Even back then Trump was an absolutely ridiculous candidate. The real joke, though, is that even after his disastrous tenure as president and despite all of his criminal dealings, Trump is running again (and will probably even win the election). That would be funny if it were just about what this fact says about the American electorate. But unfortunately, the USA is still the strongest military power in the world. So it’s not too funny for the rest of the world to have to worry about how to deal with an orange psychopath with a gigantic arsenal of weapons and enormous economic power. I therefore assume that at least the democratic rest of the world has stopped laughing by now.

          I knew I was in the Twilight Zone when Trump, [a draft dodging rich boy who compared tomcatting around Manhattan in the 1970s with actually going to Vietnam ] talked about shit John McCain and wasn’t lynched by the GOP

              One of my favorites.

              Conservative woman goes on The View TV show after the ‘pussy grabber’ tape comes out. One of the panelists keeps saying ‘pussy’ over and over.

              Conservative woman asks her to stop using that offensive term.
