wjrii , in JD Vance says he was asked in front of his wife if he had 'any secret family' during vice presidential vetting

JD Vance, most likely: “So Usha’s not white, but she probably still wouldn’t like that.”

I sincerely hope Harris never meets to debate Trump at Fox. Fox will just ambush Harris and edit the footage to make Harris look dumb or insincere. The whole exercise will be pointless because Americans will not get a fair representation of both candidates.

Translation: “give me enough money and I’ll promote whatever you want.”

Most presidents at least pretended they couldn’t be bought.

He on the other hand is haggling openly and then brags about it.

And his moron followers are proud of him 🙄

He’s going to “drain the swamp” and replace it with an auction house.

adespoton ,

I thought he was draining the swamp so he could sell swamp water?

Turns out “playing 4D chess” is just MAGA politikese for “broadcasting our corruption loudly and assuming enough people are also either too corrupt, ignorant, or disaffected to do anything about it.”

LilDumpy ,
@LilDumpy@lemmy.world avatar

Nah. Imo, this is him telling oil company that they need to step up and fully fund his requests for money “or else”. Didn’t he recently ask the oil industry for an insane amount of money at the beginning of his campaign or something?

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s not really contradicting what I’m saying.

LilDumpy , (edited )
@LilDumpy@lemmy.world avatar

No, you’re right. But I think this is specifically a message to the oil industry.

Fr wtf, the shamelessness adds insult to injury.

No translation needed, since he is saying it outright.

The best quo. Lots of smart people are saying it’s the best quo. The quid? Not so good. But the quo is good.

Dude’s made a living selling his stupid face every opportunity he can to get attention, why would he let a little thing like presidential integrity get in the way? It certainly didn’t when he was actually president!

Wow, I didn’t realize this actually happened, til now I’d honestly thought it was some sort of shit post. This is the strangest timeline

No fucking way! I also thought it was a joke. But tan suits, that’s the real problem.

Tja ,

No, the real problem is putting mustard in your burger. Those were dark times…

Rentlar ,

Ah yes. Thanks for the reminder of those times, which COVID had distracted me from.

ChickenLadyLovesLife ,

I can’t decide whether this pic or the photo of George W. Bush literally holding hands with the king of Saudi Arabia is worse. I mean, at least Goya doesn’t have people cut up with bone saws and they definitely had nothing to do with 9/11.

frunch ,

I like to substitute Trump’s middle initial with a G instead of a J.

The title is the original title that NYT published. They updated it after backlash (rightfully so). Please don’t report this post again.

Fades ,

Can you not update the title? I can update my title on posts to different communities… Why preserve the old/pre-change title?

JonsJava ,
@JonsJava@lemmy.world avatar

they can, but the title doesn’t violate any rules.

Razzazzika , in Is the Great Resignation 2.0 coming? Nearly 3 in 10 workers plan to quit this year

Considering all the layoff S thus year (including me) I’d say it is NOT a good time to quit.

kent_eh ,

If there’s a chance of a package, that seems like a good enough reason to hang around.

Nothing stops you from searching for something better while that’s happening.

octopus_ink , in Trump says he has 'no choice' but to support electric vehicles because Elon Musk 'endorsed me very strongly'

OK, LGBTQ organizations, Librarians, Pro-Choice organizations, and Satanic Temple - you know what to do now. He’ll have no choice but to support you and then what will his base do? Checkmate magas!! ;)

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Trump endorsed EVs for $180 million, I wonder what his rock-bottom lowest price is?

Twenty bucks?

Fuckfuckmyfuckingass ,
@Fuckfuckmyfuckingass@lemmy.world avatar

There’s an anecdote I’ve seen a few times on the Internet about a newspaper in the 80s sending rich people checks for tiny amounts of money, like $.15, just to see who’d cash 'em. Trump was the only one who did.

ChickenLadyLovesLife ,

Not an anecdote - Spy magazine actually did this. Trump was not the only one to cash the tiny checks, but what Spy did was start with an amount like $1.86 to see who cashed them and then reduced the amount twice, finally ending at 13 cents. Trump was one of only two to cash the 13 cent checks. It was also apparent that Trump endorsed the checks personally.

Musk rescinded the $45 million per month offer.

AmidFuror , in Trump says he has 'no choice' but to support electric vehicles because Elon Musk 'endorsed me very strongly'

What happened to "bigly?" This was a missed opportunity to use his formerly favorite adverb.

sp3tr4l , in Trump says he has 'no choice' but to support electric vehicles because Elon Musk 'endorsed me very strongly'

God damnit, yesterday I explained to someone in another thread what Trump meant when he said he could get Elon to kneel and beg, that Trump as President could revoke EV subsidies and/or heavily influence or defund NASA such that they stop funding SpaceX.

I did not expect this goddamned moron to just actually say as much, directly, out loud, 12 hours later.

ripcord ,
@ripcord@lemmy.world avatar

He actually said the opposite here.

IronKrill ,

What the parent comment is saying is the implication is that without Elon’s money, he wouldn’t consider EVs. So same meaning.

ripcord ,
@ripcord@lemmy.world avatar

Saying that he “has no choice” now doesn’t really sound like he’s the one in control of the decision. That’s definitely not the same thing.

prole ,

No, he said the converse.

“Opposite” would necessarily suggest a different outcome (i.e. Musk not beholden to Trump).

(Haven’t had a logic course in literal decades, so maybe someone can correct me if I’m misremembering. I forget how to draw those logic square thingies…)

ripcord ,
@ripcord@lemmy.world avatar

You’re right, thanks.

nemith , in Trump says he has 'no choice' but to support electric vehicles because Elon Musk 'endorsed me very strongly'

Imagine being so blatant on bribery.

d00phy , in Harris rejects Trump's idea to debate her on FOX with live audience.

I’ve been trying to think of a good response if he starts following Harris around like he did Hillary. Something along the lines of stopping, looking him in the eye and…

“What are you doing?” “I’m just walking.” “Well walk over there. You following me around like this is creepy.” Looks to moderator, “Can we do something about this? This is weird, right?”

On paper, pretty mild. But in the middle of a Presidential debate, I think it would be great.

Riccosuave ,

d00phy ,

Or if she just turns around and pepper sprays him! She could go on with a PSA about women protecting themselves from rapists.

teamevil ,

leadore ,
@leadore@lemmy.world avatar

Better to just say, “You’re so weird” and then ignore him and continue with her debate points, not ask moderator for help. If he keeps doing it work it into a response like “I will work to earn the respect of people, not try to intimidate them like this weirdo here.”
