I swear these guys sit down every morning and make a list of all the messed up shit they've done, then issue a press release saying the dems did all that stuff.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 46 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The dems really need to stop wearing so much orange makeup and shitting in their diapers.

And giving Trump gonorrhea. Allegedly.

Standard red defense. Protecting your lies/crimes to blue....

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 89 points 2 days ago (2 children)

He and Trump spread "lies" not "rumors". The word " rumors " implies that there was some truth to it, and there was none.

[–] RestrictedAccount@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

… at least somebody believes there was truth to it.

This is where we have to remind everybody that Vance admitted lying about this.

How’s this for inflammatory rhetoric, JD? Fuck you. Sincerely, an Ohioan.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I hope your state shows Republicans just how much you love it when Republicans throw the state under the bus to fuel their political ambitions.

[–] CatsGoMOW@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Oh I have next to zero hope that it will.

Honestly, that's relatively tame.

You can do better.

How did we end up in the Onion Timeline?

[–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 39 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I’m worried about The Onion. Trump and Vance are going to put them out of business since the headlines write themselves with these two knuckleheads

[–] Today@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

At least once a day i scroll up to see if I'm reading an onion post.

[–] Z3k3@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

This was that post today

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

They just need to get ahead of the curve.

Take random ass rumors from social and claim they are spreading it.

Not like the pet eating but really crazy conspiracy shit.

Or make them apologize for thier lies and project them JUST as they start spouting lies.

Edit:

Perfect!! Just make Trump solve the drought in cali by turning the faucet!. Either AI or Photoshop that shit like wheel of fortune!

[–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 4 points 2 days ago

You’re hired!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

We said that during the Bush years too. Turns out they can still find something funny.

[–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 8 points 2 days ago

Those were great Onion years

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 32 points 2 days ago

and trump voters lap it up like hogs at the trough

[–] psvrh@lemmy.ca 23 points 2 days ago

What a craven, gaslighting piece of shit.

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Let me help:

"Republicans are murdering immigrants in their sleep and firebombing their churches. Get them before they get you!"

"I'm just joking, bro." <- Apparently sufficient to avoid prosecution.

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

The only thing he hasn't lied about is fucking those thick beautiful couches to completion.

[–] Letme@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Elon muck is wondering (out loud to millions of brain dead followers) why nobody is trying to assinate Vance

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

"... tell the American people that one candidate (Trump) is a fascist and if he’s elected it will be the end of American democracy." -quote from JD Vance

[–] b161@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago

And Trump is out here doing a fascist coup with fascist thugs, saying he’s going to be a dictator on day one, saying after this election “you won’t need to vote anymore”. Then there’s that whole Project 2025 thing. Uhhhh….

Holy shit, a talking hamster :O
