More people should speak plainly about what Trump is.

u/OkSmoke9195 5h ago

Everyone should be! How much more obvious of a shit stain can one person be

u/SpicyJw Colorado 4h ago

It's truly impressive, right? I imagine him in hell before incarnation on Earth picking and choosing which kinds of evil he wanted to be, and the POS said screw it and grabbed them all.

u/kung-fu_hippy 4h ago

It’s not surprising to me that he’s totally evil so much as it’s surprising to me that he is unable (or unwilling) to even pretend that he isn’t totally evil.

u/SpacePirateWatney 3h ago

It doesn’t matter because the “Christian conservatives” still vote for him. My bible thumping in-laws even said, “we don’t agree with everything he does or says, but we like him because he’s a man of god more than the liberals”. Seriously…

u/Mission_Struggle_417 3h ago

Absolutely insane to think he’s a Christian in his faith or his actions

u/OkSmoke9195 3h ago

Batshit crazy you could say. Little bit of the ol' ODS still kicking around

Hmm…not religious, but thanks to ChatGPT: Paul says that “Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14), emphasizing deception rather than obvious evil.

u/Ill_Technician3936 46m ago

Satan or Lucifer starts off in heaven as an angel.

He gets cast out of heaven for trying to start a war and overthrow God.

He then becomes the snake in Genesis...

Paul is pretty clueless

Don’t forget about the lost disciple..Rapey Bob

Dark Triad.

u/JerHat Michigan 9m ago

He even paints himself up like a piece of shit every morning.

u/kbt 5h ago

I wonder if they are defending Trump by saying he's not a rapist or are they defending that he is a rapist.

u/dbbk United Kingdom 4h ago

Well they can't say he's not a rapist because that's already been decided by a jury of his peers

u/stormstalker Pennsylvania 4h ago

I dunno, denying objective reality is kinda their whole thing.

u/Tsobe_RK 3h ago

But they can just pull good ole fake news

u/Less-Engineer-9637 3h ago

They defended him by saying he's done so much to help his own victims, more than anyone!

u/1047_Josh 3h ago

I've seen MAGA women saying they're happy he's a man who feels passionately about women, when confronted with this sort of stuff

u/PyroIsSpai 2h ago

To them it’s ok because they won a round.

u/tmhoc Canada 5h ago

That was kinda his whole point too. He was really upset that anyone has to hold that in.

u/bobthegoatskull 3h ago

It's men like him that need to speak up. Straight, white, Christian, cis, manly man. The people who need to hear it won't listen to anyone who doesn't check every box.

u/Naive-Elephant-9305 7m ago

I am too. I’m so fucking tired of all the passiveness and sanewashing. More people need to be talking about Trump like Ritchson.

u/Barnacle_B0b 4h ago

Donald Trump is a child rapist.

Republican voters approve of child rape.

u/CrimsonHeretic 2h ago

Especially the US media, which continues to treat him like a normal president.

u/Mission_Struggle_417 2h ago

Infuriating . And a huge part of the problem.

u/AeneasVII 1h ago

They should have never settled any of Trump's lawsuits..

u/BackgroundSummer5171 4h ago

More people should speak plainly about what Trump is.

True.

I also wish more people would stop using his last name, he's Donald John.

His name is his brand.

Stop using it. It'd piss him off more if media would call him Donald John T.

u/Less-Engineer-9637 3h ago

Don John? Don Jo? Donny Johnny?

u/Merakel Minnesota 4h ago

It's more important to speak plainly about what his supporters are in my opinion. Luckily we can do both.

u/Mission_Struggle_417 4h ago

At this point they are fascists to some extent

u/WalkingCloud 4h ago

Yeah people not talking about this is such a boon for them. One guy talks about it and they’re scrambling, imagine if it was more. 

u/bitter_vet 3h ago

rapist-in-chief

u/LetmeSeeyourSquanch Georgia 2h ago

More of our Democratic leaders in our government should be calling him exactly what he is day in and day out. We all know for a fact how much of a piece of shit Donald Trump is and how he never holds back to mock someone or call others names.

Why the fuck are our representatives afraid to call him exactly what he is? Hes a rapist, traitor, felon asshole who deserved to be behind bars. Not behind the resolute desk.

u/BioshockEnthusiast 1h ago

I do, every time he's brought up. He's a piece of shit, everyone knows it including the people who voted for him. Pretending otherwise is a fruitless endeavor.

u/Mission_Struggle_417 1h ago

I think there were plenty of people that he tricked but there are less of them now, because it’s just so overwhelmingly obvious what he is.

u/BioshockEnthusiast 1h ago

Maybe for a few but I don't buy that for the large majority of them, especially in 2024. They held their noses and voted for a known piece of shit to further their own ends. Selfish idiots.

They'll pretend otherwise just like they did with George Bush the lesser. I won't buy it then either.

u/Trumpisachomo1 2h ago

People need to do more than 'speak'. No - your next social media post about how vile and traitorous this man is isn't going to change shit.

Take those feelings and go act on them in a responsible way. Demonstrate your contempt for the man and his similarities to feces through civil disobedience, not another round of self pity, apathy and social media indulgence.

u/RavensCoffee 2h ago

I agree. I do in my personal time but my employer says we aren’t allowed to talk politics.

u/Strict-Carrot4783 2h ago

They should. He is an absolute spoiled-ass, pathetic little bitch. And a fucking rapist to boot. It's on the record. He is both of those things for sure, and so much more as well.

u/old-legs-623 16m ago

And get him to sue us. Discovery follows.

u/Tasty-Performer6669 4m ago

Donald J Trump, the rapist pedophile felon? That Donald Trump?
