he says he's not dead yet

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 55 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You're not fooling anyone you know!

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 36 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I can't take him like that, it's against regulations

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 35 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Look, isn't there something you can do?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 4 days ago

I feel happy!

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Why does this have the Lord of the Rings ending filter over it?

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

I don't know, but I liked it anyway

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 124 points 4 days ago

And why should I believe a liar like him?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 60 points 4 days ago (1 children)

we got a paradox at hand, since trump never says the truth

[–] GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org 25 points 4 days ago

It could be a deepfake. A whole new class of conspiracy theory is now actually plausible.

I mean, I fully expect an administration as corrupt and dishonest as this one to spend the minimal time and money required to do such a thing for as long as they can get away with it.

Former President JOE BIDEN “wouldn’t do them for months,” he added. “You wouldn’t see him. And nobody ever said there was ever anything wrong with him.”

Fucking lol. You never fucking shut up about him health

I wonder if there's any republicans who can be swayed with "hey this thing we all agreed was fucked up when dem-aligned media was doing it (pretending the very obviously pudding-brained president is mentally competent after like 2pm) is still fucked up when Fox and Newsmax does it right?"

I had zero luck moving Blue MAGA to question their media, I suspect republicans will simply conclude Fox is leftwing commie propaganda and watch more Infowars or w/e

[–] NewPerspective@lemmy.world 49 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, but he lies all the time... Can we trust him on this?

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

In front of a door stands two presidents. One lies all the time and the other is dead.

[–] anhydrous@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If I had a nickel for every time Drumpf told the truth, I'd now have a nickel, which isn't a lot.

[–] abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 3 days ago

Jokes on you, that's just JD Vance in Drag.

That's exactly what a dead president would say.

[–] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 35 points 4 days ago (3 children)

He is not dead. He is the undead. The wounds, the incoherent speech. The first zombie president.

When there is no more room in hell, the dead will walk the halls of the white house and congress.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

The desperate search for a brain

Why did you link a picture of people during covid who refused to wear masks?

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 12 points 4 days ago

On one hand, biology, but in the other hand, he's never been know to tell the truth before.

[–] SuspiciousCatThing@pawb.social 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

There's a necromancer working overtime somewhere

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 10 points 4 days ago

It's Vance he used life steal on the Pope and is funneling it into Trump.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 20 points 4 days ago

Well, he would say that, wouldn't he?

[–] 60d@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Only someone who is dead would come out so strongly against this.
Trumpstein's dead, confirmed.

[–] BussyGyatt@feddit.org 13 points 4 days ago (2 children)

are we sure he isn't being weekend at bernie's'd?

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, the time he was away could have been for installing the animatronics.

[–] tomkatt@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (5 children)

People should just hold huge protests that simultaneously celebrate his death and call for the release of the Epstein files. Maybe his orange, fat monkey head would explode.
