Everything else aside, I'm laughing at the thought of Schumer learning that Trump called him "our great Palestinian senator"

The overton window moved a mile to the right this past year.

I read here that Trump is calling someone mentally unfit.

Let's see that slander case. TACO.

Chuck Schumer is Palestinian? Since When? 🤔

Honestly, if I lived in NY, this post on it's own would make me vote for him.

Of course, I'd have to live in the US too, which I don't, thank some deity.

I don't think I've ever read anything so unhinged from a politician before.

Imagine calling someone out for his looks in a professional setting. In most places that would get you fired or sued.

I'll often judge someone's character by who hates them. Zohran seems like a good guy

I feel like getting trump to write an angry tweet about you is as good an endorsement as Weird Al wanting to parody your song.

If that finally gives him a stroke, this guy has done more good than the rest of the Dem party.

Jesus Christ. Put this poor sad dog out of its misery already. Pasture, barn, in the house where it can't do any damage, whatever. Just take it away from all responsibility.

I always enjoy a trump jealousy meltdown.

[–] Neuromorph@lemm.ee 12 points 1 week ago

has trump said anything about RKJ's voice being weird?

[–] solarvector@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 week ago

Excellent, I hope this endorsement helps bring more awareness to Mamdani as a candidate!

His presence on the national stage at this point has been cemented.

[–] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Oh is pissbaby all insecure again seeing an actually competent and well-liked politician in action?

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If it pisses off trump this much, then it's a good thing.

I mean... good? Why would we want a politician that's acceptable to him?

[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

It’s like there was a creative writing exercise with a prompt to pack as much bullshit as possible into 5 sentences.

It’s constantly horrifying that our president communicates like this in public. Completely unreal.

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Very presidential.
