Baby throws tantrum.

Can we get a conservative to translate?

[–] Sunshine@reddthat.com 3 points 4 hours ago

Aww, they match. ^_^

[–] Lettuceeatlettuce@lemmy.ml 12 points 6 hours ago

He sniffed a baboon's ass, then got mad that he got shit on his nose.

[–] AWistfulNihilist@lemmy.world 14 points 6 hours ago

This article is thinly veiled pro-trump propoganda.

[–] Bwaz@lemmy.world 12 points 6 hours ago

For once, he's not wrong. Though the exact same could be said about him & USA.

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 108 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

And it won't matter as long as Israel receives money and support from the US.

And I doubt the US will ever stop.

[–] Sabin10@lemmy.world 50 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Isreal is the best way to funnel billions of dollars back to American defense companies, of course it's not going to stop.

[–] Taldan@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

It also directly goes to politicians through AIPAC

How about instead of Cuba you invade Israel Mr President? Now that would be something no president world ever have done. You would surely go down in history! I'm sure we can also come up with some kind of biggest penis peace prize for you.

And what, make it the 51st state? ☹️

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Better than having it act as the head of DC.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 hours ago

Now they can get representation in congress without the exorbitant bill they usually have to pay.

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 15 points 9 hours ago

👐the best state👐

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 90 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

He was told that Iran would fold quickly and it would be an easy win for his ego. It’s not happening, and even Fox News can’t sugarcoat the fuel crisis for months and months.

[–] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 39 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Now he's looking at Cuba for his 'win'.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 24 points 9 hours ago

Cuba was being planned well before the Iran War started.

[–] elucubra@sopuli.xyz 11 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

You thought gas prices are bad? Just wait until sugarcane sugar skyrockets!

[–] errer@lemmy.world 13 points 8 hours ago

We don’t use any of that commie sugar in the US, all corn squeezins baybee

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 7 hours ago

Huh? Cuba isn't much of a sugar cane producer. Not even one of the top 10. The US makes more. Brazil makes the most by a lot.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 6 points 7 hours ago

Same thing happened with Iraq.

We were told it would be a quick win, a month at most, and wouldn't cost more than a billion dollars.

L---O---L

Both Democrats and Republicans support this war, if not in word than in deed, and I fully expect it to last for years.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 10 points 8 hours ago

Surely now will be the time the US decides it's bad that they're doing genicide. We're totally not accomplices, it's this guy that's wacko.

One hundred thousand toddlers pointing to a lion, rhino, camel

"Lian...... Whino..... Camal!"

"Oh my god! This is the test Obama and Biden couldn't do. My kid will be President some day!"

Yeah, Benny is crazy. Literally everyone with basic cognitivity knows this. And for quite a long time. Those that support him are smart enough to have a money play from it and with their own disorders allowing for it, mainly psychopathy.

But, instead.. "That is indeed a camel, sir. Einstein would blush... No, sir, you aren't related to him and- .... oh, of course, sir........ Well, now we know who came up with camels as the name. Uncle Einstein's finest work, sir."

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 15 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Huh. I guess even Trump can't be wrong all the time.

Blind squirrel...

[–] einkorn@feddit.org 39 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Wow, a rare moment of clarity for Trump?

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 46 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

It's an unsourced alleged phone call from a British rag. I'm really not holding my breath on this one

[–] Nick@mander.xyz 17 points 8 hours ago

If it makes you feel better, it's not originally from a British rag, it's actually from White House mouthpiece Barak Ravid at Axios! The same "reporter" who's been edging the public for months about an Iran agreement being imminent to help manipulate the market every few days. So I'm sure it's true :)

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 10 points 10 hours ago

When you're so deep in your dementia, your delusions go full circle.

Gee....I wonder why everyone hates Isreal?

It's a goddamn mystery, ain't it?

[–] ProfessorScience@lemmy.world 12 points 10 hours ago

We'll if that's not the pot calling the kettle black...

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Every so often, the man does or says something I wholeheartedly agree with.

This is one of those rare times.

[–] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 15 points 9 hours ago

It's an unsourced anonymous leak that he can deny while giving crumbs of hope to the anti-Israel right that's been starting to turn on him.

[–] palordrolap@fedia.io 4 points 10 hours ago

Stopped clocks and all that.

[–] SaraTonin@lemmy.world 0 points 4 hours ago

Useful Idiot says what?

[–] RottenHeads@lemmy.world 7 points 10 hours ago

Might as well decimate the israelis Mr. Trump

[–] Goodlucksil@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 hours ago

The last time there was peace in the Middle East was with Mandatory Palestine, and it was a weak peace.
