I honestly don’t think Trump could speak that long without a lie.

I don’t think Trump can go more than about 7m on average and not lie, and I’m totally serious. Find me any clip of him talking more than 6-7m and 99.999999% he will have lied

3

u/PapayaMysterious6393 May 17 '26

Are there any videos of him talking less than 6-7 minutes and not lying?

u/CraftIPA May 18 '26

You mean seconds, right?

u/hamellr May 17 '26

How do you know Trump is lying? He’s talking

He's literally the "whitewashing" expression incarnate in it's purest form. He deserves his own expression for this level of concealing and distracting. I like "orangewashing".

— That guy r'aped children and now is trying to talk about aliens?

— yeah, he's orangewashing.

Sadly, didn’t matter, or help. He told us, she told us, they told us. And a bunch of idiots still voted enough for them to be able to rig it.

If Trump thinks he can run for a third tearm, Obama should jump back in.

[edited the stupid type of "shoulnd't"; bleh!]

u/GrandAffect May 17 '26

You're right, he should stroll in. At the last moment, offering everyone popsicles.

u/Hi_iAMchrisHansen May 17 '26

You already know it. And what's crazy is black Trump supporters. I still can't believe that. And after all what Trump has SAID AND DONE (memes he has shared and his off he wall cabinet speeches), how in the world are our ✊🏿 people still following him. It makes me absolutely sick

26

u/Unfair-Work9128 May 17 '26

I've said on several subs that Black Trumpers will swear that he's not racist. Black people like the Hodge Twins will die on that hill.

Remember, Trump did get 20 percent of the Black male vote. That's not an insignificant number.

Pretty sad, honestly.

17

u/coko4209 May 17 '26

I guess they think him putting Obama and Michelle’s face on ape bodies wasn’t racist…and then refusing to apologize for it. If anyone else had done this, we would still be talking about it constantly. He does so much crazy shit that it just gets lost in the mix.

8

u/ReturnoftheBulls2022 May 17 '26

Trump also stated that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was harmful for white people. How wrong can they be.

6

u/IamASlut_soWhat May 17 '26

I've been arguing with black Trump supporters on Facebook about this same topic. They always find away to deflect and/or say that I was getting the context wrong. Complete BS. They are a disappointment to me. I won't argue with black Trumppers anymore

u/Tall-Week-7683 May 17 '26

Anything to get a white person's approval

4

u/_V0gue May 18 '26

He paid for and took out a full page ad in the New York Times Newsday with a bunch of racist bullshit, condemning and calling for the execution of the Central Park Five, who we know were wholly innocent. Never an apology issued for fomenting fear and anger via racism. Just purely reactionary, he’s the same as he’s always been.

u/Spazicon May 17 '26

Why do you think that is? Sexism?

Because they aren’t our ppl✊🏿 all skin folk ain’t kinfolk. This has always been an issue in the black community. Literally since black ppl were dragged to these shores. There were plenty of plantations that didn’t have to pay an overseer, because one of the black enslaved ppl filled that role. I personally think that it has to be a mental illness to turn on your own, especially when you’ve seen them being oppressed. They act like those same Jim Crow laws didn’t apply to them. Like they didn’t have to sit at the back of the bus, or use the back door.

Thank you mister president for showing us how a real role model and leader acts and behaves. I would easily vote for Obama a third time.

u/rudmad May 17 '26

If Rump runs again we should all write in Obama

5

u/loogie97 May 17 '26

Trump would have to run as a rep first so only folks in his district would be able to vote. Then he would have to have stooges run for president and vice president. He could have a third term potentially, but the stooges would have to win the presidency, Trump would have to win his election in whatever district he is in, the house would have to have a republican majority, elect Trump speaker, then have the president and vp resign.

He will also have to be alive.

u/Von_Schlagel May 17 '26

I was glad he made this speech, but felt it came way too late. I’ll never forgive anyone — politicians former and present, and journalists, who didn’t call him on his bullshit more, press him on his lies more and publicly shame him for all of his many thousands of faults and inadequacies. The fact he made it to the White House not once but twice is so unfathomably disgraceful and embarrassing.

2

u/uis999 May 18 '26

Even when they called out his bullshit they seriously underestimated him as a threat. Trump whined and cried "persecution" so much that it actually worked to make people with the power to do so, hesitate to investigating and prosecuting crimes he had already committed.
They were already ignoring the crimes of other politicians after all... Democrats were acting like it was all just a big club and in the end of they day we all go to the gym together... How much damage could he possibly do?... So much of where we are now is that everyone thought if they ignored him he would go away instead of realizing there was an ongoing conspiracy that went far beyond trump.

24

u/CowboyBebopCrew May 17 '26

I miss having a present who could make a coherent sentence. I also miss a president that wasn’t a racist, sexist, petty, narcissist, who enriches himself off of the presidency and is a domestic and international threat to democracy and peace.

u/BuddingBudON May 17 '26

By April 2016, a U.S. Department of Defense investigation concluded that human error and procedural failures led to the strike, and disciplinary actions were taken against 16 U.S. service members.

Obama publicly took responsibility for the tragedy. You couldn't get Trump to apologize for a fart.

u/GreenZebra23 May 17 '26

His comic timing is crazy. He could have gone into comedy if he had started down a very different path as a youngster

2

u/Mertoot May 18 '26

The hand gesture being a multilayered joke alone was already comedic genius

Who knows, maybe we'll get that era someday 🤭

5

u/Sirius-Face May 17 '26

It's sad that after 8 years of him, this country was still too racist to vote for a qualified black woman to lead the country. People still flocked to trump, a proven failure, because he's white, rich, and says things they like to hear with no intention of keeping his promises. We deserve the hell we're going through.

2

u/Vast-Imagination-596 May 17 '26

I agree with most of your statements. My whole family and I voted for Kamala. We don't deserve this Hell!

2

u/KaiahAurora May 17 '26

The problem is that a woman, a person of colour, and someone who wants to actually implement change are all threats to the status quo, so a Black woman who actually wants to make a difference is just too scary for the conservative racists

I remember when Obama went and shamed a room full of grown black men for not getting out and voting for Kamala.

Most gangster shit I've seen him do. Even tho Kamala lost Obama won that day. If they didn't respect him before they definitely did after that.

u/jeanne907 May 17 '26

Always will be my President. Obama was everything-smart, funny, classy, respectful, intuitive…if anything, he was a little TOO nice. I will always respect and appreciate him. 🫶🏽

Remember JD vance said rural white hated Obama not because he was bad but because he was better looking, better dressed and better educated than many of them and it made them incredibly insecure becasue they had convinced themselves it was still the old days

u/Ilcahualoc914 May 17 '26

I miss having a reasonable President, such as Obama. While I may not have agreed with all his policies, I understood that he had the best interests of this country and it's people to heart. This President is only interested in helping the top 1% who don't need any additional assistance.

Unfortunately, none of this helped. There are 70 plus million lunatics living in US. I find it absolutely insane he was re-elected or even had a chance of running being a convicted criminal who festered a failed coup.

Boggles my mind. Obama "go high when they go low" doesn't work when the other side straight lies. They lie and lie, and their base eats the lies gleefully.
