I took it as a pisstake of the crowd going wild over someone flipping a coin.
It’s an odd tweet though.
Now I know the story is to do with his dead brother, who died as a result of the alcoholism that Donald and Fred Sr. had pushed him into by being cnuts, but given how much we know Donald lies, I'm not entirely sure he doesn't drink.
What I am absolutely sure is he's spent many a night coked up out of his mind on a giant bender which probably hasn't helped his brain all that much.
This is a great post that I've read on another forum. Highlighting the great and stark contrast between Mueller and Trump.
Apologies in advance for the overly pedantic post but I feel like these type of low quality meme posts obfuscate more dangerous ideas than their comedic value is worth.
This type of Manichean hyperbole is not only wrong but dangerous. To paint everything in overly simplisitc black and white, good vs evil terms does more harm than it ever does good. The main danger is it incorrectly paints people as Good just because they oppose Trump (Evil). This is more about following the rule of law rather than good vs. evil. Following the rule of law is not an inherently good thing. When Mueller was prosecuting people from the war on the drugs he wasn't doing good work, he was doing ill for society (evil you might say). So just because someone opposes Trump on some issue doesn't make them good and Trump evil. This comment just sounds like ignorant fan boyism - no little buddy this is nothing like The Stand. Please read more books.
This one is just plain stupid at best and a dangerous endorsement of looks based bullying at worst. Let's get something straight. Being attractive =/= being a good person. Human society is demonstrably biased towards attractive people and reinforcing this social convention that attractive people are simply better people is really offensive. Studies from sociology have shown that attractive people on average get paid more than unattractive people doing their same job. We teach our kids in school that insulting people based on their looks is bullying. So let's stick to criticizing facts and principles not making fun of someone because of their looks. Whether the Democrats know it or not, they are subtly endorsing this social norm and subtly enabling the idea that its okay to insult people based on their looks. No one can get outraged about Trump calling Warren "Pocahantas" and then go around and start making fun of Trump as obese, combover, etc. That is being a hypocrite.
Insult Trump for the plethora of bad traits that deserve to be insulted, he certainly doesn't lack insultable traits. But don't reinforce the notion that its okay to make fun of someone's looks just because you don't like their actions.
While not as offensive or dangerous as the above two, who gives a feck if this lad was in a monogamous relationship with his wife since he was 17. That doesn't make him a good person either. A lot of wife beaters stay in monogamous relationships since they were teens. Again this not a virtue, its just a neutral thing. We can criticize Trump's ill behavior without glorifying some stupid outdated 1950s social conservative myth that being monogamous since 17 somehow makes someone a better person.
Calling Mueller a "self-made man" is a bit of an exaggeration. He's not as lucky as Donald but his father was a Dupont executive and former Naval officer with both parents coming from old patrician families. He attended two elitist private schools before college after benefiting from many advantages of the elite patrician east coast families. So while he didn't inherit millions, he also was born with a tonne of advantages and by no means was some "up by the bootstraps" example.
Another bad idea. Beating cancer is, yet again, not indicative of being a good or morally righteous person. A lot of shite people beat cancer and a lot of good people don't beat cancer. The idea that "healthy = morally good" should not be encouraged.

You know, once a few years ago, I got into a silly argument on Facebook with some FB friend of a friend of a friend of friend. I got that cliche insult "you must not be fun at parties" only to have three people pop into the thread and tell the dude that despite his posting [onenil] is indeed great fun at parties unlike insulter guy. So yeah come up with something more original next time and maybe one day I'll buy you a drink

Very good post, agreed on all points. Especially calling Mueller a self made man. Self made my arse, he wasnt exactly raised by wolves in a 3rd world country either.
Oh and dont get me started on beat cancer. You dont beat cancer, you survive cancer. That's like saying I beat a plane crash.
Arsenal supporters kicking off in the Trump thread!
I think One Nil raises a lot of good points. It's easy but dangerous to make fun of Trump's looks in such a context. It sets a worrying precedent.

Trump 'at center of massive fraud against Americans', top Democrat says
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news...ael-cohen-payments-impeachment-jerrold-nadler
He started it, the fat, orange cnut.
I reckon that Trump has achieved so little in his tenure and been mired in so much controversy, the majority of it investigation related, that the two threads could be merged back together at this stage.
2 SCOTUS pick in 2 years, overhaul of the federal courts, pulling out of Paris, a huge tax cuts that add trillions deficit, partial repeal of O-care.
Those are just the big ones. He's achieved a lot, but the impact is, needless to say, negative.
He clearly doesn't want the job under any circumstances. COS of the WH is as big as it gets but he knows that it's a poisoned chalice working for that useless cunny.
Ivanka for COS
Yup... Then VP in 2020
Bring back the Mooch.
It would be a glorious ending with him back in the administration.
I think she is only fit for DP in 2020.

Rawk, man United, supporting, mate.
I hope your pessimism is purely for jinxing purposes
Comedy gold
He's a tea party nutjob who has been leading the house freedom caucus. It would basically guarantee more malfeasance in the oval if the took over (which isn't likely anyway).
Fingers crossed he will be out of the oval right into a parallelogram before he has the chance to make that appointment.
COS would be an amazing gig just for the book potential and daily comedy.
I am desodespe to watch this cnut fall.
“Smocking” not once but twice.
His lawyers must absolutely hate him, he just won't STFU.
It's so dumb. He's admitting to a transaction here which undoubtedly Mueller has all of the receipts on.
The follow up tweet was just posted in the other thread and is quite special.
A smocking gun.
Smocking is an embroidery technique used to gather fabric so that it can stretch. Before elastic, smocking was commonly used in cuffs, bodices, and necklines in garments where buttons were undesirable.
Smock a farmers work shirt.
I had to look up what smocking was.
"No collusion" could be a great name for a song
No collusion
No collusion
No collusion for you
