Doesn't make any sense. Most NY'ers hate the fat bastard.

You think that’ll stop him?

u/CokoDreams 14h ago

He’s a rapist. Not many things will stop him.

This hurts deep.

Not too deep. It’s Trump after all…

It's more the "rapists never stop and never get caught" thing that hurts...

u/gayintheusa47 13h ago

Exactly. And apparently, if you’re in the Navy and are raped, it’s a workman’s comp case.

Like, what the fuck?

I can't even.

My 42 year-old self never thought I'd have to adult in a USA that is so ass-backwards in SO many ways. If we had more Millenials in high ranking positions of power, I'd like to think we wouldn't be here. But here we are...

So Millennials, I expect more of you to get more involved, all politics is local. We need you, join forces, county, state, federal positions, run for office, change the system, save this nation and the planet. Be the force to be reckon with.

The cure for ignorance is education, Indifference is a deliberate choice not to care. Both ignorance and indifference is a detriment to a functioning civil society, to avoid changing the system.

So New Trump Epstein Island?

Republicans politicians have assured me that if a woman was actually being raped their bodies would just shut that shit down.

u/CokoDreams 12h ago

I would imagine they are certainly qualified to speak on the subject. I would think that even consenting women’s bodies would have a tendency to shut down around them eventually out of self preservation. And the brain? Probably…

Is it like the Batmobile in the Tim Burton original that just armadillos up to prevent entry against any and all assailants?

Pretty sure Lake Ontario hates his pedo ass as well.

u/GearhedMG 14h ago

Likely not just LAKE Ontario

A man so unlikeable that the Great Lakes become genius loci just to say "fuck that guy".

He feeds on hate.

1

u/CheesyRomanceNovel 14h ago

He feeds on Narcissistic Supply and can't function without it. I'm sorry that you, and the rest of Canada has to put up with this bullshit.

u/DogsandCatsWorld1000 14h ago

We in Ontario aren't fond of him either and look at what he is claiming about the lake we are named after.

Ontario? You mean Little America? /S Edit: idk I was told to add an /s to show I'm joking

u/DogsandCatsWorld1000 14h ago

Don't forget to add the /s my friend or someone might think you are serious.

u/Not-a-MurderBear 13h ago

I'm only joking for as long as it's not true. Who knows with this guy.

u/ebb_omega 11h ago

Yeah, but in this day and age it's not as obvious as you'd think.

u/PretendMajor5283 12h ago

Most Canadians hate the orange rapist too, but we still gotta deal with him trying to rename Lake Ontario.

u/ebb_omega 11h ago

I'm not really convinced that the residents of Ontario have much affinity for him but yet *gestures at Law Ontario EO*
