He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he's not very smart, he's got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin' Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him.
As a Canadian I know almost nothing about Zohran Mamdani, but I do know that he has more class than a man ever will who, while President of the USA, writes this, or the people who see a non-white left-winger win a democratic vote and immediately call for his deportation. The world can see this. Trump and MAGA are bringing shame on your country.
We know. We’re miserable. (Us sane people, anyway).
Yep. It takes way more money than I have right now to leave. I did move less than an hour from the Canadian border though. Best I could manage.
I haven't felt any embarrassment at all. This bullshit has always been a way of life.
Straight up impending doom this time aeound. Perhaps its that I'm older, but I doubt it.
This tweet by Trump is close to calling for an assassination.
Whatever the outcome of this presidential reign of stupid. The American system needs to fundamentally change from the ground up.
Trump is about half way to making America sink lower then North Korea on the world stage.
He's also very hot. Very very good looking guy.
- A US citizen
Can I have the source to that?
If I could upvote that 20 times I would.
Ha, "he looks terrible" is what stood out most to me. It shouldn't matter either way, but that dude is GQ-cover-page handsome. I can only surmise from Trump's comment that he's shitting his pants with envy
Straight proof to anyone with a brain that he projects (read: rejects truth) with every single statement.. so fucking loudly.
"All the (centrist fucks) are extreme leftist Marxists!"
"OMG a (milquetoast moderate) won, the Marxists are taking over!"
"Holy shit a (moderately left leaning person) won an election! It's over for America the Communists won!"
"The crazy Marxist Democrat extreme leftists have gone too far with this (standard progressive)"
...etc etc...
now we have an "actual" socialist, but the boy cried wolf so many times they can't label him anything more extreme because they already threw those words at people like... (Checks notes)... Nancy Pelosi... Lol
RealCommunistThreatv5(final)(finalfinal)(therealone)-1-1.3.docx
What a fucking reveal!
I want an actual communist to win some election, just to see how much they freak out
It's a Mayor these guys are freaking out over.
The president is freaking out over a Mayor.
That's true fear. They know we intend to use the law to put the real criminals in prison.
To be fair, NYC is a huge city and so its mayor is a major figure in the US. The most recent population I could find was 8.8 million people, vs. the total US at 340 million. NYC is, therefore, home to 2.6% of the US population. As a polity, NYC represents more people than the 9 least populous states (Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, N Dakota, S Dakota, Delaware, Rhode Island, Montana, and Maine) combined. In fact, there are only 12 US states that have a bigger population than NYC alone, and one of those is New York state. From a population perspective, the mayor of NYC is equivalent to the governor of Virginia. That's why everyone is freaking out about this so much. Plus he's young and very handily beat the candidate backed by the DNC establishment, showing cracks in what they assumed was a solid neoliberal core.
NYC has more population than like 38 individual states, what you say is true.
fucking wyoming with a smaller population than most cities
Not a mayor, a mayoral candidate who beat his fascist opponent for the opportunity to be represented in the election.
The irony of saying someone’s not that intelligent when it appears you don’t even know how to use punctuation.
I’m pretty terrible with punctuation but I’m not throwing stones from my glass house.
His writing is terrible but his incoherent rambling responses to questions are even worse. Not answers, responses.
Try giving an interview while suffering from severe dementia and lets see how you do.
Person, woman, man, camera, TV.
Very good, Grampa, now let's get you back to bed.
.. where you’ll decide who to separate from their families, an assortment of far reaching societal health and economic policies, and which country you’ll next attack to attempt to start world war 3
Always remember: green button calls the nurse, red button launches the nukes.
ACED it!
Stupid people often attack others intelligence out of insecurity, its no secret he's an absolute moron with an elementary school reading level
Every accusation is an admission
Literally every time

Who do you think would fare better in an FSIQ test? It won't be Dolan.
I think it's even money that Trump tries it.
Considering he is already illegally deporting people and illegally trying to revoke birthright citizenship, you are more optimistic than I.
The only thing that makes me think Turnip won't do anything is that he's a coward and only bullies the weak
Trump and the Republicans are now calling him a communist and the GOP are asking Trump to revoke his citizenship and deport him under the Communist Control Act signed by Eisenhower in 1954. I think it’s even money that Trump tries it.
With the enthusiastic support of every last centrist.
Remember when people didn't get elected because they weren't "presidential" enough?
😢
Weird things can happen when you've spent four decades making people poorer and more desperate.
Democrats fall in love with a candidate, Republicans fall in line.
And the DNC removes the candidate democrats fell in love with.
IDK what you mean, Bernie Sanders is the most popular overall politician in the USA and he made it to the final two in multiple presidential primary elections before losing by large margins of votes.
They literally combined super delegates won by different candidates and then said he lost to that.
Another example, David Hogg getting removed after his win.
-
Idk what year you're talking about but Bernie lost by 3,708,294 votes (Bernie 13,206,428 to Clinton 16,914,722) in 2016 and by 9,400,078 votes (Bernie 9,680,424 to Biden 19,080,502) in 2020.
-
David Hogg was removed from a committee by vote after another member issued a formal complaint that their February ballot did not follow internal gender parity rules by combining candidates in a way that disadvantaged female candidates. David Hogg left his position gracefully but decided on his own to not run for the position again.
The popular vote numbers are convincing on the face until you realize that Sanders conceded before all the primaries were held. This means for a lot of states Biden was the only option.
It would be a better argument if Sanders was a viable candidate in every race.
Regardless he did concede and you can litigate the reasons for that if you guys want.
Lmao, first that guy claims he won the popular vote, then you claim he didn't withdraw many months into both primaries. Whats the next claim going to be? That the DNC chairs held each voter at gunpoint?
Bernie won NH, NV, and won the popular vote in Iowa in the 2020 primaries. Biden took SC, then right before Super Tuesday, every other candidate in the field dropped out IN UNISON and endorsed Biden. This was a direct action from top DNC leadership to smother out Sanders, a truly viable populist, progressive candidate that threatened status quo Dem economic policies. You can throw numbers around, but you can't erase what we saw with our own eyes.
Then! Then, the Democratic Party said "fuck a primary" in 2024, disguised Biden's lack of mental acuity, forced a candidate on its voters, and built an entire platform (which lost) on appealing to moderate Republicans.
Open your eyes; we either need new leadership, or a new party.
Nobody has ever successfully primaried an incumbent. People like you get made that 2024 primary was normal.
Even if you think Biden somehow stole endorsements, the popular vote difference was double. Biden had double the votes that Bernie had.
What we desperately need is to remove every Republican
I don't think Biden stole anything. I think corporate Dem donors and leadership are legitimately afraid of a popular socialist movement.
If you're arguing that Kamala was the best option, guess what: she lost. If you think running the incumbent would have been better, that's just more evidence that the party doesn't listen, or doesn't care. Perhaps you want to blame the voters? Good luck. 🤣
I don't disagree with your fundamental point; but mindlessly rallying around a political party that doesn't listen to its base is not only stupid, it has become dangerous.
Being afraid to lose is possibly the most pathetic excuse I can imagine to not try anything new.
The DNC aligns with the wants of the american people, the people are just being misled so as to not see it.
Jeez. How sad. I'm done with you. Good luck.
The DNC aligns with the wants of the american people
That is just a flat out lie.
YEEEEHAAAAWWWWW
he has been aipac agent for last two decades. just toned it down lately like biden to pretend he is not a rabid zionist.
I read AOC +3 as like a d&d style stat modifier.
She's approaching peak power, send more vibes and she might upgrade to artifact
The leader of Americans everyone.
He may be in charge, but he's not a leader.
Not my leader, I actively don't do anything he says.
Oh he’s not in charge. He just makes the fries for the people who are.
Always undercooked. Many such cases! SAD!
He's definite discharging something
Half of us are very very sorry.
Less than half of you voted to prevent him from winning.
Fine, I rescind my apology from applying to you, specifically.
And less than a quarter of us actually voted for him.
But the ones who didn't vote for the alternative also voted for him, if indirectly.
If you're planning to assign blame to every single person who had even an indirect hand in putting him back into office, you're going to have a very long list of people to talk to.
Biden got 10 Million more votes than Harris. That is what decided the election. Those ten million people choose to let fascism win.
I mean, there were also 15 million Americans who died between 2020 and 2024. Add that to the biggest voter suppression campaign in US history, and you get a substantial enough reason for the electorate to have changed.
For a single individual to have made that choice is one thing. But to paint ten million people with that broad brush is just rage-baiting.
Maybe you should have offered them a non-fascist alternative
So you chose the extra fascist alternative instead? Yeah, figures.
You were the one who decided exterminating Palestinians was more important than beating Trump.
Shhhhhh! They’ll hear you and exact a horrible revenge by “downvoting” this outrageously true statement!
Caring about upvotes and downvotes is such a redditor opinion.
Omgikr?!
Allegedly.
I like how they've gone full mask off and given up on the anti-semite attacks and are just calling anyone not calling for Gaza to be ethnically cleansed a Palestinian like it's an insult. Not even hiding the Islamophobia any more.
It's also double funny that he's calling fucking Schumer a Palestinian, it's like calling Biden a communist, which he also probably said. It just goes to show no matter how much the dems try to moderate to accommodate the conservatives they'll always be the enemy.
It's also double funny that he's calling fucking Schumer a Palestinian, it's like calling Biden a communist, which he also probably said.
Plenty of times. The point of making the absurd claim is because the correction to the error contributes nothing but a deflection from the initial claim.
Trump tweets are pure, unadulterated gish gallup.
Anything unadulterated around this dude needs to watch its six
Calling that disgusting snake Chuck Schumer the Palestinian senator is pretty hilarious, given where he stands on the genocide.
Weird too because Shumer did not endorse Mamdani. Only a "congratulations". But in Trump land anything goes
Looks terrible, his voice is grating, he's not very smart. Who do those words make me think of? DJT and RFKjr win in a landslide.
Trump is a master of projection.
Trump declares Democrats have crossed the line because the outcome of an election didn't end like he wanted it to.
Now I look back at about 8 years of Republicans crossing line after line...
How do I get AOC+3?
Also, how do we protect Mamdani?
If he was sitting on a golden toilet with a spray-painted phone, it would be indistinguishable from the original author.
Cocaine usage actually went up this year, that explains both musk and Trump's energy on being chronically on social media
He looks terrible.
This is a racist pointing out someone's brown skin.
His voice is grating.
RFK JR
He's not very smart.
My dog is smarter than Donald Trump. Literally.
So anyway, the person saying this is a felon rapist traitor who has repeatedly violated the Constitution. But hey, it's a racist dog whistle and conservatives LOVE that shit.
Looks terrible, grating voice, not very smart... Hmm, who does that remind me of?
Republicans always whine about themselves.
Yeah, that was my first thought
especially with zohran being specifically noted as pretty attractive, smart enough to not trip over himself when speaking, and at least to my ear he sounds like he could be a radio host.
AOC+3? Is this supposed to be code?
BRB, looking up wholesome AOC fiction on AO3
I'm pretty sure it's a reference to "The Squad"
Oh FFS. I’m sure there’s nothing they have in common that the orange shitbag could possibly be referring to.
I don't know, but it sounds good
I think he meant AOC^3, because cubes are so much scarier than squares.
How did america elect this guy twice? So pathetic.
40 years of crippled public education and propaganda talk radio
It isn't pathetic, it is an engineered strategy that has been ongoing since before any of us were born and it's working because almost no one bothers to do anything but meme about it
I have my doubts that we did it twice. 2024 looks fishy. I'm glad it's finally starting to get talked about
Do you really think it will matter even if they find obvious election fraud?
I think it might get a lot of people who don't like what's happening but accept it to cross over into not accepting it.
I'm not super hopeful that it would matter legislatively or judicially, but I might be the kick in the pants the population needs to go on a general strike, or take other actions.
Sincerely hope you are right, we've gotten so many kicks in the pants so far
I mean, No Kings day was good but we need to do this EVERY DAY
Yes. Nothing more to say.
I hope you are right and will put what effort I can towards the goal, I just am not as sure about the outcome as you are.
The tighter they squeeze, the more systems slip through their grasp.
Great endorsement
He's prepping up the fascist transition for the midterms, and it couldn't be any more obvious. If it isn't outright theft it's going to be voter suppression and voter manipulation on an entirely different scale. It's so ridiculous to think the US is a democracy anymore, at this point the whole country is a confidence game and a scam that's just mobilizing the capital of the people who they already have scammed against new targets.
They already stole the last one. They are absolutely stealing the next ones til they get caught. Ivankas voting machine patent in China was no coincidence imo
"Ivanka's"
Trump says somebody else is not smart
Make the man afraid some more.
I am genuinely and continuously exasperated with the reality that this man is president of the United States. And that millions of Americans voted for him. I'm genuinely unsure which I respect less.
Everything else aside, I'm laughing at the thought of Schumer learning that Trump called him "our great Palestinian senator"
"Yeah, his voice is just awful" -RFKJr
Actually AOC+3 only applies on a nat20, you know better Donnie.
Lol stay mad loser. Maybe if your weren't an old fuck from the 0.01% pushing a cynical, half assed fascist agenda that no one likes, socialists communists would be getting this much attention.
The overton window moved a mile to the right this past year.
Since Trump marked him for a death camp
More shrieking dictator every day.
I read here that Trump is calling someone mentally unfit.
Let's see that slander case. TACO.
The future is now, old man.
I don't think I've ever read anything so unhinged from a politician before.
Imagine calling someone out for his looks in a professional setting. In most places that would get you fired or sued.
So it should. We're supposed to be more civil than that. But as others have said, this is mask off. Trump unmasking what has been lying under the surface of the capitalistic elite for decades. Utter contempt for the working class who are basically regarded as slaves, and anyone with any influence or power who challenges them is painted as a traitor, criminal, and honorary slave as well.
but also the person you're calling ugly is obviously more handsome than you yourself are, so everyone just stands there staring dumbfounded at you
Then you haven't seen his 20 minute meltdown post over what AOC said a few days ago.
Over her proposing to impeach to him? I didn't but I can imagine. Does he want to "deport" her as well?
Honestly, if I lived in NY, this post on it's own would make me vote for him.
Of course, I'd have to live in the US too, which I don't, thank some deity.
That same deity is responsible for me living there. So.. thanks will not be given here
I feel like getting trump to write an angry tweet about you is as good an endorsement as Weird Al wanting to parody your song.
I'll often judge someone's character by who hates them. Zohran seems like a good guy
Holy run on sentence Batman!
Fear not, boy wonder. I brought my....Bat-punctuation. Here, use my colon.
Here, use my colon.
heh.
If that finally gives him a stroke, this guy has done more good than the rest of the Dem party.
has trump said anything about RKJ's voice being weird?
I always enjoy a trump jealousy meltdown.
Jesus Christ. Put this poor sad dog out of its misery already. Pasture, barn, in the house where it can't do any damage, whatever. Just take it away from all responsibility.
Excellent, I hope this endorsement helps bring more awareness to Mamdani as a candidate!
His presence on the national stage at this point has been cemented.
I mean... good? Why would we want a politician that's acceptable to him?
If it pisses off trump this much, then it's a good thing.
It's amazing his blood pressure isn't off the charts considering how angry he is all the time. Then again, maybe it is. One can only hope.
Oh is pissbaby all insecure again seeing an actually competent and well-liked politician in action?
It’s like there was a creative writing exercise with a prompt to pack as much bullshit as possible into 5 sentences.
It’s constantly horrifying that our president communicates like this in public. Completely unreal.
Very presidential.
Death camps incoming.
Ha ha ha. This guys such a snowflake.
I wish he was a communist. I hope I get to vote for a communist in my lifetime.
The black hole calling the snowman black
Orange snowflake speaks loudly again
The really funny thing about this is that he probably would have been almost as mad if Cuomo won the primary, but it shows that he really doesn't have any faith in his party's candidate in the generals lmao.
laugh, the cow calling the kettle black
Ole felon 47 could be right. Not for the reason he thinks.
The one to rally watch is orange rumps puppet master. Thiel and his band of project 2025 cronies are the ones operating the strings.
He looks TERRIBLE [...]
Hey Don, careful! You got some whistle in your dog! We all know why your biggest complaint is his looks. If he was as white as us and named John Smith, you wouldn't say a word about his strong support for workers or belief in the social safety net.
Communist Trump doing it again
Ringing endorsement, honestly
He needs his eyes checked- Mamdani is Zaddy
I can hear the tears on his gross, unwiped phone screen.
He was lauding pritzker like this a bit back. Its like he is annointing the opposition. whats your qualifications trump hates me and im progressive. your hired!
Americans, your goal is to get those amongst you who will get Trump the most triggered like this, to run for offices across the country.
Pretty disgusted by all of you memeing the collapse of democracy
That's okay, we feel the same way about you. But more to the point, when you're in a situation where the only choice is whether to laugh or cry, it's just a question of how you want to cope.
Before reddit went soft there would be a dozen busy political activism threads encouraging people to join the protests and giving info how.
That's a lot better reaction than laughing or crying
I expected lemmy to be better and it turns out your just a touch more eloquent but that's all
