Smug Trump | LOL | image tagged in smug trump | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
Even Tim Pool gets it. Well, after he tweeted about it.

lol yeah, his video is what gave me the idea for this, though for some reason it took over 6 hours between submission and getting featured...

Did you see Pool at the wh? During the media summit? He brought the beanie and was the only one not in a suit. Then he left early because it was too hot. lol

Nope, didn't actually see the summit, but I'm not surprised about the beanie. Little surprised he didn't wear a suit though, although maybe it was sort of a passive-aggressive form of protest, since he doesn't actually support Trump.
8 ups, 5y
I bet he has that nailed in!

Good point. But I'm starting to wonder if he's not a little more right than he lets on. Sitting on the fence (kinda) gives him both sides of his audience, well, the rational ones.

You find early morning submissions get more views?

Has everyone forgotten that one of these people referred to President Trump as a "motherf**ker?"

This tweet did not occur in a vaccuum. It is part of the ongoing political attacks that both sides are engaging in. And the Democrats keep falling for it! If you want to beat Trump, ignore the ad hominems and opinions, forget ideology. Stick to demonstrable, documented facts and go after him on the issues. Don't be a cast member in his reality shitshow.

I say that openly because I know the Dems won't listen, and that's fine with me. I'm not rich, I'm concerned about having enough to retire, and since Trump has been in office my retirment accounts have soared.

Well a) Its the President. You should be able to insult him. And B) There is a difference between profanity and telling Americans, living and working in America, to go back home

You should be able to insult /anybody/. That's called free speech.

And what difference is there, apart from literal content? Both are insulting. You either allow both, or you make both illegal.

Again. One is just profanity, While the other fundamentally attacks the accused.

Certainly a far more vicious attack than simply telling someone to "go back where you came from".

He never said that. He's never told them to leave. He said they could if they were so unhappy.

Don't fall into the trap. He'll be misquoted on this as usual.
3 ups, 5y
True, though I'm not saying Trump said it, I'm saying that, objectively, "motherf**ker" is a much "meaner" thing to say than the phrase "go back where you came from" that Gylbert is mendaciously getting his panties in a bunch over.

Wtf. Name me another congress member that's called a president that in public?

You know, you can keep pushing your narrative but as we've all told you, he INVITED them to leave if they didn't like America, not TOLD.

I know there's a language difference but you're making me wonder.

Same message

"Wtf. Name me another congress member that's called a president that in public?"

Fair point. Politicians holding public office shouldn't swear as it sets a bad example.

Come to think of it, in point of fact, the concept of trying out a new idea on a smaller scale first is a very corporate business practice; a young employee brings an idea for a product or a new procedure to his higher-ups, and they say "try it out on a small scale first, some small town or subsidiary company. If it works there, come back to us and we'll implement it on a larger scale".

So it's something entirely natural for a businessman like Trump to say, despite the somewhat tone-deaf nature of the way he phrased it.

Telling? This is the typical thing. He never told anyone anything. He INVITED people to leave America if all they do is call America evil and immoral. What's so hard to grasp about that? Everyone in America has ancestral land (s) they came from.

Ah, but he told them to leave if they didn't think America was great and needed Change. This part is added on.

Uhhhh... I gotta tell you. You're 100% wrong about that. These 4 want to make America into an open border welfare state and seriously hates the America of today and yesterday. I've only seen antifa cucks hate America as much. They make Obama look like a staunch patriot.

Fair point but hardly anything out of the norm in the partisan politics of today.

Although he did preface it with loudly and viscously. And these 4, well, at least 3 are all extremely viscous. Did you see AOC get destroyed by Holman?

Everyone seems to miss how he also invited them to come back in the same tweet series.

And it's funny how they go on and on about their original heritage, until Trump made that tweet, then suddenly they're American. And then of course there's the fact that Puerto Rico is part of the US, so AOC had nothing to get upset about anyways.

Quize sure that was an after thought and only came after the backlash

"And it's funny how they go on and on about their original heritage"

Aha go on

"until Trump made that tweet, then suddenly they're American"

Three of them are America born Citizens and all of the are US Citizens. They might have had diffrent and diverse backgrounds, but they are all American. And it is a disgace and bigotted to tell Amdrican Citizens living and born in America to go back home.

"And then of course there's the fact that Puerto Rico is part of the US, so AOC had nothing to get upset about anyways."

Wait a Minute... you don't think three of the four werent born in the US *Narrows eyes Suspiciously*

"Quize sure that was an after thought and only came after the backlash"

No, it was part of the original series of tweets. Basically, "go back to your home countries and apply your policies there, get them to work, and then come back and tell us how it's done". It was not simply "go back where you came from ya dang foreigners" like the left is harping on about.

And don't put false words in my mouth, you specifically quoted me saying they go on about their "/original/ heritage", not their "nation of birth". Of course they're all American now, so perhaps they should talk about how they're American all the time, and not just when Trump riles them up.

yeah no, pretty sure that just means go back to where you came from and apply your policies there. That invite to come back is a lose at best

"Of course they're all American now, so perhaps they should talk about how they're American all the time, and not just when Trump riles them up."

Tgere is nothing wrong with talking about where ones family came from before entering America and becoming American. And I am sure they talk about being American as much as you do. And they shouldn't need to do so, because I think its a given that they are Americans.

I don't think they need to remind us of /that/ fact

Hate to break it to you, but that is textbook "seeing what you WANT to see".

And yeah, there's nothing wrong with talking about your heritage. It's one thing to have your heritage as part of your identity, it's another thing entirely to /use/ your heritage in identity politics, as a means to get ahead, to be "the first something-or-other", and shut down your opponents.

Take Hillary for example. She ran almost entirely on the idea of being "the first female president", and on what a misogynistic male Trump is, even though he hadn't actually said or done anything particularly sexist, let alone misogynistic. One locker-room comment that any man could easily have made does not make him the epitome of "hatred of women". Now if Hillary had just tried to campaign on policy instead of identity politics, she probably would have won.

Then again, maybe not. Her policy plans would have had the US in actual war with Russia by now.

Either way. Still offensive af

Yeah fair fair enough

"Take Hillary for example."

Yes. I agree with you on this one

If that were true, then why the need to twist the narrative?

" "Then again, maybe not. Her policy plans would have had the US in actual war with Russia by now."

Heh"

Well it's true. She wanted to take over (aka invade) Syrian airspace, it was part of her platform, despite the fact that generals had testified in congressional hearings that doing so would unavoidably cause a war with Russia. Not "might", "/would/".

She also said she would go to war with Iran.
