Wait, doesn’t he know the Whitehouse is in Washington DC? He literally tried to overthrow the government in order to stay in that - “filthy, dirty, falling apart, and very unsafe” - town.
Make. It. Make. Sense.
I wanted those grapes, I tried to get those grapes. When I couldn’t reach them and somebody else got them, they’re gross and I didn’t want them anyway. I’ll still take them if I think I can get away with it and then they’ll be good.
Make America Sour Grapes Again?
When you put it like that it really reinforces the question:
If Donald Trump had gotten the love and affection he so desperately craves when he was a child, would we all be living through this bullshit today?
When our progeny look back on this chapter of history I think in part it may be seen as a case study on the kind of moral tragedy that can befall an entire civilization when one man lashes out in an attempt to justify his own lack of self acceptance and belonging.
Imagine living your entire life as a series of lopsided power dynamics where you are always sizing up everyone around you because there is nobody in your life you respect enough or that respects you enough to check your behavior.
It is both fascinating and terrifying to watch this play out, and to consider the micro/macro scale implications of this period in time. Hopefully our collective consciousness is impacted by these events as to reinforce the ideal that the moral arc of society cannot and should not be dictated by the whims or misguided ambitions of one man.
Half of America that didn’t get the love and affection they needed would have voted for some other guy who didn’t get the love and attention he needed.
It’s a systemic issue
For sure. This is all baked in. People don’t love themselves by design, and if you do, your most likely some form of outcast.
Or his mom should have gotten an abortion
Wow well said. It’s really a pitiable state. I wouldn’t wish the DT perspective on anyone, ever. It’s an indictment on us and our whole thing that he got this much pull in the first place. Your last paragraph sums it up.
Some people get caught in their lies year later, I personally had friends who would contradict themselves on a weekly basis, but to do it on this level is truely insane.
These are lies that are more like “I can just lie to these people, regardless, cause they all wish they were me anyway”
Real sad.
It’s like an insecure crazy ex. “I could get back together with them whenever I feel like it. The restraining orders and daily therapy at 244 Main Street are just defense mechanisms that dumb slut and I can get past together!”
I do appreciate that he went out of his way to correctly use oxford commas though.
His rhetoric is that DC when to shit without him.
The rantings of a totally stable winner.
Stable genius*
I just went to Washington DC for a concert and was pleasantly surprised, seemed like a nice town.
A lot nicer knowing that doofus got arrested there.
You know what the kicker is? He got those charges for fighting to stay in that “FILTHY, DIRTY, FALLING APART, & VERY UNSAFE” city.
Nice! Which venue? I was in DC for 7 years and loved it.
I’ve lived and worked in DC for decades. It’s like any other east coast city. Many good parts for tourism, working, colleges, etc. and also a few bad neighborhoods. And even some of those have cleaned up a lot in the past couple decades
That said, perhaps the room where they fingerprint federal criminals could be dirty and falling apart. I wouldn’t know.
Holy capitals and commas Batman
The comma usage is grammatically correct, as far as I can tell, but the caps-lock is, indeed, horrendous.
The comma after DC is superfluous, I think, but the rest of them look ok to me.
It is a rule of English grammar that city/state names are followed by commas. https://style.mla.org/commas-place-names/
Everytime I sit down to actually write, and try to be grammatically correct, it always surprises me how many commas I use, especially when writing in my voice, and I always feel like I go overboard, so I check it over and over. (Did I get em right?)

There’s definitely an element of crazy there, but also, please, don’t discount, there’s an overwhelming dose of stupidity on top of it all.
It’s a self aware stupidity that’s hard to stomach.
I don’t know what’s real anymore … is the confirmed legit?
I pulled it straight from his Truth Social account. He really is that unhinged.
Oh wow, it really is just a reskinned Mastodon instance. That’s my first time actually visiting the site.
Don’t link to the cesspool. That helps it.
Too late for me, but here is another gem from a few hours ago:
Biden and his family steal Millions and Millions of Dollars, including BRIBES from foreign countries, and I’m headed to D.C. to be ARRESTED for protesting a CROOKED ELECTION. UNFAIR VENUE, UNFAIR JUDGE. We are a Nation in Decline. MAGA!!!
Like dude you steal from contractors DIRECTLY among many other things. Lot of apathetic, frustrated, and hateful people with zero sense of self awareness to delude into thinking this guy is actually on their side. It never ceases to be surreal.
The worst part is that there is a tiny kernel of truth in it. The entire system IS corruption itself. It’s just this guy happens to be a few flavors of mentally ill, and overt in his dealings. DT Era will he considered the inflection point for wherever we end up as a country. That’s super pathetic and depressing af.
Funny thing is he didn’t actually have to show up… He had the option to attend via video call lol…
Also he wasn’t arrested by the his political opponent, Biden has absolutely nothing to do with this process… everything that happens here is a result of trumps actions, which broke specific laws, and the DOJ is doing their fucking job enforcing those laws.
Don’t want to be arrested? don’t do crime, simple as. Listen to your lawyers they’re trying to stop you doing crime
CAPS LOCK CRUISE CONTROL
Trump: “TO ALL MY FUTURE WASHINGTON, D.C. JURORS: YOU ARE FILTHY CRIMINALS.”
Just saw national TV news here in Finland. Part of the time of the trump speaking clip, a screenshot of this was on the screen instead of the video. Hilarious.
Does this violate the terms of his release? He is not to talk about the case except through his lawyer.
He didn’t say anything that everyone doesn’t know already as public knowledge. He was in DC, and arraigned. That is all public knowledge
He did say he was “ARRESTED BY HIS POLITICAL OPPONENT JOE BIDEN “ which is pretty close to the same lie that got him here in the first place…
Please, at this point he’s collecting indictments like he collects bankruptcies.
It doesn’t learn well. But in it’s defense, it’s not trying to.
partisan bs aside, it’s always amazed me at how many of his problems were self inflicted, and how little he does to help his own base. he shits on his supporters, leaves them in jail, jerks the GOP around eight ways from sunday, and they all continue to support him, so he probably believes he can navigate a reality where he’s facing 4 sets of ‘oh you’re fucked’ charges.
Im stating the obvious here, but he’s counting on winning, sowing violence, and the grift. With these charges, its inevitable that he will eventually go all in(again and worse) on getting his people riled up, using those people to sway court decisions or worse. It’s a hostage situation more or less at this point. I don’t think he is particularly concerned about getting his story straight, or telling believable lies. Not sure he ever was.
I give him the weekend.
That’s awfully generous of you.
No salt here.
It was a very good very rotten day for America the most very good very rotten day ever nobody has very good very rotten days like donald duck trump
It’s really sad that each one of us read this in a perfect DT voice in our heads.
It was a very good very rotten day for America the most very good very rotten day ever nobody has very good very rotten days like donald duck trump
