That’s a fact. Now, the clown will say, who?? Never heard of him. Must be fake news.. DJT lost his mind when didn’t get a second term. How could his nemesis Obama get two terms; and not a racist?? I say with every opportunity compare DJT wishing he could be Obama; he will say he never heard of him 🤥

I still remember it clearly when Dan Rather was reporting from the White House during Watergate... Rather asked a rather pointed question, to which Nixon said "Are you running for something Mr. Rather?" Rather answered, "Are you?" End of conversation. 😆 Reporters like that aren't allowed anymore.

I wouldn't even call Trump a clown. Clowns are hard working people who endure a lot of stigma. Trump is a garbage fire.

Clowns entertain people. Even "evil clowns" like the Joker and Pennywise can at least make people crack a smile before they kill them! Trump is just a black hole of narcissism.

Eh, I'd argue that even "evil clowns" unfortunately give off a negative sterotype for ordinary people working the profession of a clown. I know it's just media but at the end of the day clowns are just ordinary people who wake up, eat breakfast, put on their make up, and work hard, then come home.

It's depressing that the right doesn't see, trump has betrayed them. Nothing he said he'd do was for them... it was all for himself. The Constitution was the ideal, and he's shit on it. Those of us with fathers who fought in WW II are so ashamed to see a nazi lover in office.

I don't think I'm blocking anything from FB, but all of the content from FB just leaves a field of blank white page in the story from my perspective. Wondering if FB is suppressing the content for some reason. (This applies to the FB comments on the posting as well.)

My personal favourite quote for trump is this one, which is far more appropriate and doesn't denigrate (creepy) clowns: "Behold the bitten apple, the power of the tools, but all the knowledge in the world is of no use to fools." - The Eagles, Long Road Out of Eden.

Why do posters on bluesky keep posting comic sands articles? I have to close at least 4 ads to even see the article. Then every sentence or paragraph is separated by more ads. Isn't there a better source?
