Can someone shoot the president to detract from the president shitting himself?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, but they'll miss and then that'll be a distraction from stealing the midterms

You're just too scared of getting even more evidence that our glorious god king heals faster than wolverine, like that time his ear and 37% of his head got shot off, and then the next day he played a perfect round of golf and cured cancer!

(Have to add /s, because that actually sounds like something a magat would say with a dead straight face... 😒 )

Best I can do is bomb Venezuela.

[–] DaMummy@hilariouschaos.com 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Or at least shit on the president.

Just like Call of Duty. So cool, huh?

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 5 points 1 week ago

Call of doody?

Yes, dumping a dump truck of shit on him. Great idea. 👌

[–] zbyte64@awful.systems 51 points 1 week ago (2 children)

We also will kidnap the leader of another country as a distraction

[–] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 week ago (1 children)

NGL I completely forgot that happened for the past week. I can't believe he's still in custody and nothing's happened lately.

[–] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh no the distraction works...

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 8 points 1 week ago

Flood the zone with shit. That is what it's called. Steve Bannon is supposed to have come up with it. Seems to be working well I think.

And bait the rest of the world into World War II 2, Electric Boogaloo

[–] pedz@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes , that's how Trump and his administration operates. Whether it's on purpose or just the product of a chaotic idiot, that's how it works. Every day is a shit show to make people forget the previous shit show. It's how they can do anything without consequences.

[–] SalmiakDragon@feddit.nu 15 points 1 week ago

Oh, we know it's intentional. "Flood the zone" on Wikipedia

[–] roserose56@lemmy.zip 20 points 1 week ago

To have a pedophile USA president and you wait the elections or the Epstein files lol. You are cooked.

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I thought trump announcing he wants to rig the elections was a distraction from shitting himself and the new Epstein stuff released

I can't be the only person who looked at the top right corner to see how much brown mana it cost to cast this.

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Then play the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

Shart of the deal

[–] PwnTra1n@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

The Aristocrats!

[–] adubya@feddit.online 3 points 1 week ago

Why is AI trying to make Bobby Kennedy look like a bespectacled Texan & as well as Doug and Dr. Oz younger than they are?

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 3 points 1 week ago

American here: It sounds like the Germans have it spot on.

[–] kennedy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

or they're just that incompetent. Not everything is a conspiracy
