Hey look, more of a r*publican using the word "coup" incorrectly in order to muddy it's meaning and get the plebs to think saying "(person) did a coup" is completely normal and not at all the show-stopper and career killer it absolutely should be.

More shit for the firehose!

The weirdo believes these emotions are anger? Strange way to express it.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 66 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Trump has never felt happiness. He has no idea how to interpret it.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago (3 children)

"Happiness is when you look at your adult daughter and realize she's hot enough to bang, if you were allowed to. " - Trump probably

[–] gothic_lemons@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He is projecting and jealous. He wants to be relaxing on the beach like Biden. But he doesn't know how to relax. So his Biden fan fic has Biden being mad at Obama and Harris like Trump is.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

He can't relax. He's been so obsessed with wealth and his image his whole life that he's mixed himself up in endless webs of lies, corruption, and crime.

Honestly, he's become an excellent warning to countless Americans that are obsessed with the same goals.

Not true, I'm sure he felt happiness in all those videos of him hanging out with Epstein, where according to Trump supporters absolutely nothing sketchy happened .

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think the closest he can get to happiness is something like smug satisfaction.

In my experience with family members suffering from Dementia...the ability to read emotions often suffers dramatically in the onset and intermediate stages. Paranoia and anger generally follow (partially due to confusion of being unable to "read the room") as the decline progresses. Stressful events and loss seem to aggravate and accelerate the decline.

[–] GoofSchmoofer@lemmy.world 41 points 2 months ago (1 children)

JFC this man is the a hate filled piece of shit.

I think if he ever felt genuine human happiness he would explode.

He sounds like a bitter teenager who is making up stories after finding out his girlfriend cheated on him. It’s weird and sad really…

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

making up stories after ~~finding out his girlfriend cheated on him~~ cheating on his own girlfriend.

But otherwise I agree.

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 37 points 2 months ago

This is some seriously deranged rambling

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 31 points 2 months ago

you can tell from these deranged posts how rattled and scared Convicted Felon trump is

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 29 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What?! Wtf is he talking about? Biden is on a beach? Did Ole diaper Don forget Biden is still the president?

Delaware, California now that Trump got his sharpie out to prove he's right.

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Remember this one? Got roasted for saying he's building a wall in Colorado.

What the fuck was that, @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world?? I think reading that melted my brain! I'm blind and no language good no more!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I guess you'll just have no choice but to unhappily sunbathe on a beach now.

[–] half_built_pyramids@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

K-mama did a coup, so it's okay for me to do one.

[–] lettruthout@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

This feels less gish gallop and more fan fiction

[–] mostNONheinous@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

“I don’t know why he quit.” Yeah, we know. It’s called integrity and you have never been within ten feet of it.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

He is completely unable to comprehend why a person would ever willingly give up power.

[–] bruhbeans@lemmy.ml 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So is he saying he played into Comrade Kamala's coup by beating Joe at the debate? That's he's a patsy, a pawn, a rube, a sucker that she played like a fiddle?

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I saw that too. Repubs don't even bother with consistency, none of them care about facts or intellectual integrity.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Projecting much? Projecting so hard he's now certified for IMAX.

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think Trump might literally be unable to comprehend someone making a choice for the greater good rather than for their own benefit

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Lol, this shit is so weird. He's saying almost the exact opposite of what reality is in this entire statement.

It's... It's just... Like, he wasn't always this completely wrong and nuts. This dude is 100% senile. He is losing his grip on what normal means and is.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Wrong and nuts is spot on, I love that

[–] rbesfe@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 months ago

The clearest projection I've ever seen

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That guy is too old to be coming up with decent nicknames anymore, hopefully lazyboy wonder JDV can help him with that.

[–] Bassman1805@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

That attempted dig at Clooney just reminds me of the chess meme about "W"esley So

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Hey! Wait a minute! Hating on George Clooney is MY thing!!!

[–] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No one fucking cares what he has to say anymore.

He’s an old washed up pensioner.

Harris and Walz are going to clean the floor with him.

[–] finley@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

Just remember to vote!

[–] WanderingVentra@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago

Let it go, man. We all know you miss Biden but he's not running anymore. You have to come to terms with that, Trump. We're all worried about you.

In related news, he seems to be getting crazier. If I was a Republican I'd be concerned.

[–] ganksy@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

But in all seriousness, pls pls come back Joe🙏

Clooney is a "lightweight" actor?! He's so mad he's crazy!

[–] WoahWoah@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

He's just saying it because Tarantino said it and Clooney got bitchy about it in a recent interview.

Someone needs to take the "He's an angry man" quote and overlay it onto various clips of Trump's weird-ass rants.

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

I feel like Trump has a bad case of Jean Ralphio. Like, stop at "Comrade Kamala," that works as a nickname. Loses all it's steam when you add Harris. Like, there some other Kamala you might be taking about you weird orange bag?

[–] ech@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Wait...does he think that Harris is the acting POTUS just because she is the nominee for the election? That would explain all the "coup" bullshit. I thought they were just trying to delegitimize her campaign, not that they had such a fundamental failure to grasp how the US government functions.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I listen to a number of conservative podcasts. Yes. They think Harris is secretly the president. Unless it's Obama that's secretly the president. They can't keep that straight because they don't know what a consistent narrative is.

[–] wuphysics87@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I am very impressed he typed all that.

[–] Nfamwap@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

With only minimal capitalisation too. It's almost as if one of his minions typed it out.
