    Was at a bar watching NFL with the bros when they kept showing his fucking face.

    We tried to ignore it at first but they just kept showing it.

    We started loudly booing. At one point I shouted “WHY AM I BEING FORCED TO STARE AT A FELON RAPIST JUST TO WATCH FOOTBALL?”

    This bar is in California, but I guarantee some conservatives were there. Too bad. They’re filth and are putting felons and rapists on television during football games. I don’t give a fuck if it hurts their feeling for me to say this shit in a public space. Decorum goes out the window when you’re forcing sports fans to sit and listen to a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and insurrectionist.

    The NFL is getting pretty fucking gross. Just in the last few weeks they’ve put a felon rapist on the air, one of their ex-quarterbacks stabbed an old man, and a new player ran from the cops and then blew his brains out.

    The fuck is going on with that organization?

      I feel like the problems you listed with the NFL have always been there, you may have just glazed over them since it only involved the organization and players\coaches and not a president.

    Is there a word for that gesture that he keeps making with his fist there? I feel like he thinks it’s a flex but just outs him as a dictator.

        My old man said the same thing. He also killed the USFL. A Spring (American) football league he pushed to play in the Fall to compete with the NFL, which led to its downfall.

    It’s sort of amusing that the profound psychological issues that make him the most corrupt POTUS in history, the most self-absorbed POTUS in history, the most dishonest POTUS in history and the most deranged POTUS in history also make him the most tone-deaf POTUS in history.

        History is only written by the winners when the winners benefit their civilization.

        When, as has consistently happened in the latter days of past civilizations and as will be the case if Trump and the oligarchs and their fascist tools win, the winners solely benefit themselves and thus ultimately destroy their civilization, history is written by third parties.

                The general attitude of the people in China disagrees. I guess we can try to tell them we know better as we strip civil society down and burn the rest.

                  The general attitude is controlled by the CCP, as we know. Any dissent is quickly dealt with to maintain a hive mind that aligns with the CCP.

    I can’t find a longer video than what’s in the article. It’s pretty harsh. I had to check since sometimes it’s not as bad as they say. What is he reading?

    Edit: I had to do the thing, it’s in the article:

    The jeers came down even harder when Trump, flanked by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, read out the military Oath of Enlistment to swear in new troops.

        Just my review of what I saw. However your assessment of him as a person is accurate and something I agree with. Was just mildly surprised he didn’t say anything stupid.
