In Trump's latest Truth Social post, he shares a disgusting video depicting a golden statue of himself, a sky scraper with his name on it, a superyacht on the Gaza coast, him holding hands with a female entertainer in a night club wearing a see-through gown, him & Netanyahu shirtless together sipping alcohol on the Gaza coast with a sign that says "Trump Gaza," and money raining down with kids jumping up to grab it.

All the signs of what many would call the antichrist, yet the religious-right is convinced he's their savior. He wants to turn Gaza into a Las Vegas style resort with his name plastered everywhere.

This is literally insane. Like "need urgently to go to book a visit with a specialist" insane.

Could you believe it if you saw it just 4 months ago, with everyone screaming "Genocide Joe"

He actually posted it on "truth" https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114068387897265338

I am really curious to see what the followers replied to that, but i don't have an account

It seems to range from mild disapproval to saying it's a sign of the antichrist but they still support him. Absolutely wild that people could watch this from trump and still support him. Some people replied thinking it was a joke. This is crazy the mental back flips some of the replies have.

Yeah, you can tell the Democratic party is a far superior organization if only because they have a few people in it who were willing to call out Biden and Harris's support for genocide, where meanwhile the whole Republican party will support Trump no matter what he says or does

Unfortunately the issue is those voices get mocked & suppressed by the establishment Democrats in the major public positions of the Democratic Party that are beholden to their donors. I personally would love to see a new party emerge after all this that has a more progressive public agenda.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

Best bet is probably progressives just taking over Dems the same way MAGA has it's roots in the Tea Party shit decades ago. Otherwise it's simply not possible without pretty substantial election reform, something neither party has interest in.

These were the top few replies on trending. To be clear I made the account specifically to see what fiasco trump "truths" next.

Thanks for screen grabbing these so I didn’t have to go there

They might have missed that whole Stormy Daniels story...

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, Trump and Biden and Harris all want the same thing for Gaza, but Trump sure is a whole lot less subtle about it

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

This is literally a thing I have been saying would happen for over a year. This is darkly hilarious.

Here's a direct link, as I didn't believe it was real:

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114068387897265338

Can you imagine the outrage if Biden, Obama, or Bush had this posted on an even semi-official account? Or even Trump in his first term?

Now it's just... another Wednesday?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

All the resources of the United States and he posts a badly done AI video with a shitty jingle. And it looks more like an ad for a Trump branded resort than a peace deal...

No way this is going to blow up in anyone's face, no way at all...

I think everyone has accepted at this point that Trump is extremely stupid and might be borderline mentally challenged. I mean even in the 80s people knew he was dumb, Biff Tannen in back to the future was reportedly based on Trump.

It's very close to what I imagined when he first started talking about the Riviera of the middle east - but I have to admit, I didn't have the statue and I had more golf. I obviously didn't have the bearded belly dancers either - I guess I expected them to review it before release.

The link I provided included the video inline, but I don't see it with the link you provided. I tried finding a better source that included the video with it, but they were all right-leaning news organizations.

So he doesn't mind trans anymore?

The Trump regieme officially endorses Palestinian transwomen, as long as they have abundant facial hair.

But "genocide Joe", tho, amirite protest / non-voters???

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 weeks ago (13 children)

LOL... seriously? He sponsored killing approx. 70k Palestinians and his admin continually vetoed UN resolutions calling for a ceasefire, yet you're bitter at voters that didn't want to vote for Kamala "couldn't think of anything I'd do differently" Cheney. You lost the moral high ground my dude.

Lol yeah, fucking seriously, you people are un-fucking-believable, have zero respect or patience with your shot, get fucked.

Yes, Butcher Biden enabled the genocide. This outcome is because Biden sent Israel the bombs that destroyed Gaza. You can and should oppose both.

The Biden administration vetoed multiple ceasefires at the UN. Voted against Palestinian sovereignty. Sent Israel thousands of bombs. Provided the legal, political and media cover for Israel to commit the genocide over a 15 month period.

Dig a deeper hole. You clearly never cared to oppose the genocide when Biden was president. You just want to settle scores.

Edit:

I don’t know those who downvoted this is it because they deny the genocide or deny the Democratic Party’s complicity in it? Either way clearly you are no allies if you oppose Trump’s plans but not Biden’s actions. Good luck in 2028, none of us are ever returning to the Democratic Party.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

Choices were either bad or much, much worse, and you chose the latter, sooooooo........congrats on your moral posturing that fucked Palestinians even worse!

Honestly, sharing an insane AI video to social media is such peak boomer. Perfectly on brand for him and his audience.

Yeah, its like your uncle that just discovered ChatGPT. I guess all this is probably Grok?

Guess a bunch of losers shouldn't have stayed home or protest voted.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Or maybe a bunch of Dems shouldn't have been okay with the admin & future admin at the time funding genocide & vetoing resolutions to stop it. I think Dems that think like this must be in toxic abusive relationships already, cause they sure don't know when to leave.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago (14 children)

Lol.

Allow me to introduce you to reality. First thing's first. You don't get everything you want in reality. It fucking sucks and you have to bust your ass to get things even close to how you want them slowly over long periods of time.

Now, being that we've established reality, allow me to further explain this particular part of reality.

There is no scenario in which America gives up its oldest and most important ally in the Middle East. Not happening. Go ahead and forget that shit. That means America is going to tip-toe around Israel so as not to jeopardize that allegiance.

So now, in reality, you were presented with exactly two options in November. Why only two options? Because no 3rd party is even remotely close to winning a presidential election because no 3rd party has done the work to get ANY members in EITHER chamber of Congress. How do I know a 3rd party can't win, other than having NO members in Congress? Because the 3rd party candidate with the most votes was magician Jill Stein who magically appears right before every election then magically disappears again after each election. And she only got exactly HALF OF A SINGLE PERCENT of the total votes cast. So now we know, definitively, that no 3rd party candidate had a snowball's chance in hell of winning the 2024 presidential election.

So now let's talk about our ONLY two options. One was NOT Donald Trump and the other one was, you guessed it, Donald Trump who, before the election, literally said "Israel should finish the job". He made it abundantly clear, multiple times, that he gave exactly zero fucks about Palestine. And now, surprise surprise, he wants to level the place, round up Palestinians and send them to other countries, and build a fucking vacation resort.

So, rub those brain cells together and let me know which option would have been best for Palestinians. Let me know which option someone who claims to care about Palestinians should have chosen to minimize the suffering. Because you can cry to your mommy all day about neither option being good, but the bottom line is if you gave a fuck, you'd be interested in helping minimize the suffering.

And that's just in relation to Palestine. If you did your homework like any responsible American should, you'd find out that our economy fairs better under Democrats, they have WAY less convicted criminals in their ranks, and they have a voting history proving they regularly vote in favor of the middle and lower classes. And again, I'll repeat, your ONLY two options for the foreseeable future, until a 3rd party gets off their asses and does some real hard work, are either Democrats or Republicans.

Now, if you're admitting you either didn't vote or protest voted, you probably don't have the brain cells to grasp anything I just said, but hopefully others reading this will.
