Don't worry, if I ever become president, I'll have any pictures of Trump edited to show his true colours by replacing him with a Russian flag since he's Putin's lap dog.

This has to be one of the most petty and insignificant acts of trumps this year...

I wonder what they were gonna put under Donnie's picture in 2028.

Not quite the same, but in the UK the last time the UK Labour Party was in government in 2010, Liam Byrne, the chief secretary to the Treasury under Gordon Brown, left a note for his successor, which simply said: ‘Dear chief secretary, I’m afraid to tell you there’s no money left.’ 🙄 we're still broker. Well, you've got to laugh otherwise you'll crack-up.

It's cute that you think that Trump won't still be president in 2028

like, sure, he'll be dead from being in such incredibly poor health, but don't worry he'll still rule as an AI chatbot

And then the conservatives wouldn't shut up about it for about 12 years. I got so sick of hearing them go on about that note.

Or Hillary's email. Or Hunter's laptop. Or how the 2020 election was corrupt. A bunch of people who peaked midway through high school and haven't matured a day since.

On the one hand, this is absokutely juvenile. On the other hand, why are Americans so obsessed with displaying and counting past presidents?

[–] halferect@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Most countries have a record or a area of photos of past leaders and this is a purely Trump thing, Trump made the walk of fame, it never existed before Trump.

The fact he can just shows how far gone the us is, yet each insane thing that happens gets only a mild bitching online as the loss involved in righting the ship grows exponentially.
