Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, drew a wave of online ridicule after complaining that Democrats want to make Ohio a state.
Trump Jr. made the remark Monday while actually in the Buckeye State to campaign for Republican candidates.
“They want to, what is it? Save democracy by destroying democracy,” Trump Jr. said of Democrats. “They wanna pack the Supreme Court. They wanna make Ohio a state, make D.C. a state, have permanent one-party rule.”
Eh. Hilarious, but obviously just a “mental typo”. Everyone makes them. I’m all for poking a little fun, but also giving people room to make mistakes like this without it being a huge deal.
edit: Jesus, I didn’t realize I had to explain things. Obama said something about 53 states. Also a mental typo. These things happen. Waste your time on these, sure, but we all have limited energy. I’d rather spend my time usefully fighting fascism rather than wasting it on things like this that don’t actually matter. But y’know, you do you. All it does is distract you from the important things, but it’s your right to waste your time if you want. And sure, have a litle laugh about it. Whatever.
He was making an Insane Clown Posse reference.
“Potatoe”
“Slick willie”
“Enthusiastic scream”
“Swiftboating”
“Thanks Obama”
“Biden gaffe machine”
“But her emails”
“But her laugh”
…But when a nazi scumbag has an awkward moment, suddenly the calls for decency and measured reactions. Fuck that times infinity. Any and every low blow is absolute fair game at this point.
What it’s worth is “current situation”, unfortunately
“Potatoe” was Dan Qualye, Republican, though, right? Who was famously then immortalised as the lowest possible ranking in the Civilization game series.
You’re right, I was just tossing out as many things as I could think of. Pardon my gish gallop, my main point is just that showing respect to nazis is not going to earn it from them so why bother.
