Donald Trump huffed and puffed online after Maryland Gov. Wes Moore challenged him to walk the streets of his state.
The 79-year-old president lashed out on Truth Social on Sunday at Moore’s “nasty and provocative” invitation three days earlier to join him for some light cardio in Baltimore, calling the city a “crime disaster” and threatening to deploy National Guard troops.
Trump was so angry about the public safety walk invitation that he suggested he may pull federal support for rebuilding the city’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, which collapsed last year.
President Mr Fucks Kids.
Or he hiding being a paedophile to distract you from sending troops into American cities?
Used to.
He’s too old and broken now.
Kills them too… USAID
Yeah, but now we can stop spending so much money on all those farmers in the Midwest. (Where did they think the food was coming from that went to helping the rest of the world?)
What a gigantic pussy.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
MAGA = Y’all are f✓cking re+ards!
You can say fucking retards we are all adults here very human and totally male.
It’s actually a pretty hurtful slur for people with actual intellectual disabilities, so best to pick a different word entirely.
No, it doesn’t hurt anyone. Think of it this way You’re getting mad about black people rapping the n word because it offends you.
You consider yourself intellectually disabled? I guess that does change things if you’re trying to “own” it.
My reference point is a kid with Downs Syndrome asking me not to say “the R word” back in the 90s. I just haven’t seen the need to reintroduce the word since then.
I admit the chances of hurting someone’s feelings are low, but a touch higher when you’re on the internet. I just don’t like the term being repopularized for some reason.
What was the kids name?
Ahh wish I could tell ya, but this was at a special olympics event at a local prison yard maybe thirty years ago. The kids all moved on after the event.
So your story is you were at the special olympics and you were dropping retard bombs. doubt [x].
I take it back what events were you competing in?
The first man to bankrupt three casinos will soon be the president who bankrupted the military budget with all these useless deployments.
I hope as a side effect of this nonsense that cops everywhere feel emasculated, knowing that Trump holds them in such little regard that he feels the need to send in the national guard to do their jobs for them.
The obese buffoon is on the Epstein list because raped children.
Anyways here’s a list of his many many hugest most tremendous bankruptcies:
Trump Taj Mahal (1991)
Date: July 1991
Details: …By 1991, it couldn’t cover its $3 billion debt…Trump Plaza Hotel (1992)
Date: November 1992
Details: …amassed over $550 million in debt by 1992…Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino (1992)
Date: March 1992
Details: …had $250 million in debt by 1992 after an 80% cash flow drop…Trump Castle Hotel & Casino (1992)
Date: March 1992
Details: …struggled with $338 million in bond debt, worsened by competition from the Taj Mahal, his other casino…Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts (2004)
Date: October 2004
Details: …had $1.8 billion in debt.Trump Entertainment Resorts (2009)
Date: February 2009
Details: …filed for Chapter 11 with $1.74 billion in debtI don’t think cops will think that way. Instead, they’re going to think, “finally, I can do all the fucked up shit that the PC liberal government never let me do. MAGA! Derr!”
I have a few cops in my extended family and I can guarantee you they love what is happening right now and can’t wait for the national guard to be in their backyard.
Fuck, that’s dreary.
What they really want is a massacre. Expect one soon before the elections.
Did he lose money on those bankruptcies or were they a scam?
eg if he borrowed $10m for upgrades but secretly only spent $3m and split the difference with collaborators. Then by declaring bankruptcy the casino doesn’t have to pay back the loans.
I am no finance expert so maybe my scenario is far fetched, I dunno.
His bankruptcies were totally planned from the beginning. Those casinos were Russian money laundering operations, and the entire objective was to suck every drop of profit out of them, run them into the ground, declare bankruptcy, and walk away, sticking everyone else with the bills. And he did it 7 times.
It’s not that he’s a bad businessman - although he is - he is a virtuosic money launderer.

Sopranos S02E10 has a great example of a Bust Out in practice, as they effectively dismantle a department store from the inside.
This isn’t just Trump. It’s a business practice prioneered back in the 1980s and repeated successfully for decades.
And while Trump certainly had a lot of Russian mob connections, I believe there’s just as much of a relationship with the Tony Salerno and the Genovese family by way of Roy Cohn. Incidentally, the Italian mob was instrumental in cowing migrant workers and breaking nascent union movements across NYC for most of the 20th century. The big crack downs on organized crime didn’t happen until the end of the Soviet Union, in the early 90s, when they’d exhausted their usefulness.
Curiously, this is when organized crime in Russia exploded and you began to see a lot of black market organizations working to loot the old Soviet System on behalf of Wall Street.
But up until the late Clinton/Early Bush Era, Trump was more closely associated with the Italian mob.
Guess it depends how you define “bad”. In my eyes a good business does well by everyone: staff get well compensated and have a good work environment, customers get a good product at a fair price, suppliers get their invoices paid, owners (if not a coop) get some ROI and their name on the door. Trump has only ever managed 0.5 out of 4, ergo bad businessman.
bankrupted the military budget
Can’t be done. We might dedicate bigger and bigger chunks of our GDP to Military Kensyanism. But our imperial military exists to extract materials and labor to fuel the total economy. It functionally can’t go bankrupt.
So long as there are nations we can sack and loot, and workers they can press gang and enslave, all we’re doing is driving up domestic retail costs at home to divert surplus to the Big Looting Machine that’s powered our nation since inception.
can we get some fucking submission standards please
OK, you’re right BussyGyatt, you deserve only the the most productive and serious of posts.
“Scream at him Mr. Trump. It’s working! There are only 9 out of 10 people still asking about the Epstein files. Last week it was 10 out of 10. The tide is changing, sir! I honestly think you’ll get away with all of the heinous shit that you do and did!” (One of Trumps handlers, probably).
Love to see it.
Is anyone else tired of all the “Trump Melts Down About…” and “Trump Rages Over…” articles?
I guarantee you he’s not melting down or raging in the slightest. He owns an entire country. He’s sleeping like a baby.
Babies cry when they shit themselves. I don’t think Trump cares when he does.
🎶 TACO-TACO Man! He’s got to be a TACO man! 🎶
Has anyone done a parody of that song sung with those lyrics? It would be so hilarious if someone were to play that for him at one of his events.
C’mon Young man, Its Fun to play, As a N A Z I
Why yes, someone has done a good parody. 🌮🌮🌮 https://youtu.be/icyff11EtBU
Someone remind him that it’s not his money,
Trump was so angry about the public safety walk invitation that he suggested he may pull federal support for rebuilding the city’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, which collapsed last year.
Could always do what that town did during the Cold War, and ask Russia to fund the reconstruction.
For the unaware, Vulcan West Virginia was a tiny coal mining town that had been trying to get a bridge built for a few years, but the state was dragging their feet on funding. The town was only accessible via a private gravel footpath (that was technically off limits to the public, since it was owned by the local railway company,) and a small footbridge that was in shambles. For years, the town had been begging the state to build a proper bridge. But the state was reluctant to build a bridge that wouldn’t see a lot of use.
In 1975, the suspension footbridge collapsed, meaning the only remaining way in or out of town was to trespass on the railway’s gravel road. So that town contacted the USSR, and asked them to fund the new bridge. The USSR never actually responded, but the town also contacted the news… And the Soviet reporters jumped at the chance to make “US town seeking humanitarian aid from USSR” headlines.
Suddenly, the state announced that they had money to build the bridge. The announcement came on the same day that a Russian reporter traveled to Vulcan to interview the residents. The official story from the state was that the bridge had been planned for months, and it simply took time to get the ball rolling… But everyone knew that the state was simply embarrassed into funding the bridge.
“I’M THE KING! I CAN DO WHAT I WANT!”
“Any man who must say ‘I am king’ is no true king.”
Plus, we don’t have kings here. At some point enough people are going to remember that.
It wouldn’t be his first impoundment.

fucking meidastouch with their hyperbolic headlines
like, guys, maybe in sane times this would be a bombshell revelation ending his career. but these are not those times. this is yet another nothingburger that nobody will care about
Heavily funded PR team provides fiery response on Trump-owned social media to keep nation distracted and divided as rights are stripped and Russian plans to cause civil war and demolish nation come to fruition
I’m just tired of Lemmy being full of nothing but the tiniest Trump news. We get it, USA is a shithole with a dictator. Once in a while an owls sneaks into the feed, and then it’s just more Trump.
Absolutely agree.
I am tired of those, and the root cause of that is that I’m tired of Trump.
He is, but that’s his natural state of being, so it doesn’t mean he’s any more disturbed than usual.
I’ve been tired of it since 2016.
The worst part is whenever you see some subjective word use like this, and then you dig into the actual source event or material, 99% of the time, it’s absolutely nothing. Oh, did T “melt down” by tweeting in all caps? Ah yes, so rare, an occurrence. And not just articles about him, but usually articles about his reaction as being something crazy or whatever suffer from this kind of hyperbole.
Also in the same category are articles with “will” or “can” or some other version of “maybe maybe maybe” or “likely to” in the headline. 99% of the time, no it won’t. It’s just a workaround for Betteridge’s law of headlines (any headline with a question mark can be answered “no”) that any article that suggests something might happens can be answered with “nah, probably not.”
Yeah, they’re annoying. More often than not, those titles are invented by the poster.
Its because he would have a heart attack and literally die.
Dude’s circulatory system is very obviously failing.
He believes everyone has a set amount of energy to burn and that working out would bring him closer to death. He’s said so publicly.
I do wonder if even an evemt that was mistaken as an attempt on his life could cause enough stress to end him. He seems so frail. A secret service tackle would probably break a hip.
Well that explains it. He took the invitation as a death threat.
Unironically yes.
He is of course too narcissistic to just literally admit that, but uh, yeah.
lol…feed him up with big macs stuffed with meat from the heart attack grill first, he prolly wouldn’t make it a couple feet before his heart gives out XD
I think we should explain that McD has a drive in for people walking, that might tickle his pickl
He should send NFT Trump, the version of himself that’s fit and young and much less orange.
Like his own version of an Uzi Jesus card.
Starting to look like the safest mode of assassination of that man would be to just yell “BOO!” when he’s not expecting it, and then let his failing physiology do the rest of the work.
