I urge Trump to go fuck himself.

Of course, Trump is the biggest business idiot in the country. He was largely elected because he is the big, dumb mascot of business idiots.

I keep seeing Ed's site posted everywhere and we need to promote the HELL out of him!!! It seems he is the only person actually making sense today. I send his articles to everyone I know and urge them to read it.

meh, I did the quiet quit thing a long time ago. not working harder without a nice raise. I'm urging Americans to work less. go on! take that day off! you can do it!

[–] drhodl@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Americans should definitely take Voting Day off, to maybe vote.

[–] xeekei@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

They could also have voting day on a fucking sunday like the rest of us. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[–] EverXIII@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

ahaha... good one. Maybe they will go vote if they get a free burger with fries. Or tacos... 😂🤣😂

Look at that 275lb (320?) bag of piss wrapped up in a cheap looking 10k suit shitting his pants. Nubby little fingers. Weird nubby mushroom member (this is from a a legal deposition)

Clearly demented and so insecure he can’t even ask for help.

Dude is in over his head.

The stress is gonna kill him. He knows it that’s why he’s not working.

He is not looking healthy

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 26 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If he's angry, he doesn't look that bad. If he's just listening, he doesn't look great, almost deflated looking.

[–] D_C@lemm.ee 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If he's just pretending* to listen

Ftfy. Everyone knows he never listens.

I hope you're right, but I think like Putin he lives on pure motivated hatred and spite.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Kissinger lived till 99. Hatred seems to impart longevity somehow.

Honestly he should golf more

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago

With the amount he plays golf, you'd think he'd be better at it, but apparently he's a chronic cheat at that as well.

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 38 points 3 days ago (7 children)
[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 3 days ago

he'd enjoy that. I'm not sure you would though.

The other 78% he reneges on nuclear agreements in place since a decade and threatens war on the behalf of a country that starts with I, probably the Ivory Coast, or maybe Iceland, to blow up another country that starts with I, maybe Italy.

Maybe he sees all these Is and thinks "Yeah, I'm awesome."

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

wrong

given he only complains about juneteenth, he is saying that black people should work harder.

I urge him to get bent!

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 47 points 3 days ago (5 children)

Incentivize it, you living malediction. Expand healthcare to allow more hours, increase overtime pay, make it easier to start a business, personally turn a few billionaires into pulp within a massive stadium housing solely seats, cameras, screens, a long spool of rope, and a single woodchipper. Frankly, these aren’t big asks.

Just for that I'm playing games my entire shift.

His base legit acts like a class of peasants for this man. It is the most insane thing to watch in real time.

Every MAGA is going to volunteer to work on Saturdays, and every holiday, right? Dear Leader requires it.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 12 points 2 days ago

"I DID NOT VOTE FOR THIS!!!" - person that voted for the candidate that promised more work without more pay

For anyone keeping count, that's about a day and a half per week.

I thought the amount of time he golfs would be higher. Every time he golfs we pay the taco when he stays at his properties.

Maybe he'll trip and impale himself on a golf club soon

[–] carlossurf@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Also dude looks like he takes 4 hour naps a day, why do we keep electing senior citizens

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well yeah

Pensions are fucked globally

Not a single one of you will see any money from it, so better get working

Even better, you guys will probably need to extend the pension age up to 75 or so

Prepare for fun times

France revolted violently for less... and again after Charlie X started stripping away the Napoleonic rights.

[–] huppakee@feddit.nl 6 points 2 days ago

Damn it's been a while since a political nottheonion was actually a good nottheonion

[–] selfdefense420@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

our president is a hypocrite?? wow. this is news to me. well thanks for bringing this to light! i'm sure the people will have a change of heart now!

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago

Given how worker production increasing over time and pay for said production have not stood in line with each other I think I’d rather not.

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 days ago

This monster feeds on media attention. Let's all stop relating every stupid things he says and focus on basically anything else, it will always be more positive.
