This isn't exactly misinformation, but it gets pretty damn close. Not the Trump corruption part, but the Ahmed Sharaa part. He was fighting the American occupation of Iraq even though he wasn't even Iraqi; this moron who can't even stand up to his own fascist government has no right to say "but my terror!".

Back in the day, the word Trump meant to best someone, now it means being the dumbest piece of corrupt shit on this obloid planet.

Where I grew up it also means farts.

Playing the trump card had a whole new meaning now.

Fun fact: that idiom was first used in literature in 1823. How times have changed

200 years later: Trump card? You mean like the loser card?

No sorry. Thats called American. Cause they Accept it... there is still Not a fucking single Riot. FCK america If you American it must be hard being dumber as this piece of stupid Shit.

Huh, must be nice being as smart as you, which county do you riot in?

Why should i? Im not American. I Just watching the shitshow Like the Rest of earth. Meanwhile i lose Sympathie for ALL americans cause Nobody is doing anything just watching the destruction of democracy.
But hey I am German. So look at the history of where this is going if there aren't slow riots... Germany then needed the help of 2 world powers to get away from the shit. Nobody will be able to help you later and the technology for oppression is much more advanced than it was in Hitler's time. Keep chilling and relaxing and don't do anything.

I assure you, there is little "chilling and relaxing" that happens in America. But also wild to call all Americans stupid for not rioting while living in Germany.

Must be nice to not need to do anything other than feel supior for having done nothing other than not be born here.

Of course I feel superior when people still call you a Nazi just because you're German (/s). No, I find it sad. But the behavior of relying on any legal processes to put an end to this or the peaceful protests or social media. 3 points that the Republicans and Trump are absolutely not interested in but laugh about. They watch as people are brought to El Salvador etc. You hardly hear anything about solidarity towards ICE... America is the land of free guns... but you ignore history and bury your head in the sand and hope that things will somehow get better for you.

Edit: I don't mean solidarity for ICE but for the people who are abducted by them.

So i should go to jail? How does that help? Jail in America is a mass of human rights abuse. We still have Muslims in prison for being Muslim in America after 9/11. We are aware tge system is fucked. But if you oppose tge system than the system runs you tge fuck over. If you want to come to America to experience slave labor, go for it.

Weird to blame people with no power for what the billionaires do. But you are free to side with them if you choose.

Let me guess.... you could probably identify with Luigi yourself as well as millions of other Americans right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

So, you won't be coming to America to riot?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 40 minutes ago (1 children)

Nah im happy with europe and they allies. Why should i travel America and get Instant deported.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 minutes ago

You live closer to the capital of America than some Americans.

Your logic is also the same as "I don't sympathize with any black people at this point. Why don't they riot?" Insert any marginalized group here.

Really not dodging the bad connotation of being German to throw 300 million people under the bus as stupid.

I think that was part of his appeal for MAGA: that he was open about corruption while other politicians are not.

https://www.vox.com/2015/8/6/9114565/donald-trump-debate-money

Did they want to see the country crash and burn? Did they think he would break the rules for good? Did they think it doesn't matter who is in power?

I dunno, am not MAGA myself.

I mean, the US and Israel did help put that guy in power. If anything he is just paying them back. Not that its any excuse of course.
