Trump is owned by Russia.

It really is just that simple - Putin and his oligarch cronies have bought and paid for him.

“And this is what he said. He said, ‘Well, we don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.’ I said, ‘Really?’ And he said, ‘Oh, yeah. We’ve got some guys that really, really love golf, and they’re really invested in our programs. We just go there all the time.’”

Eric is denying now that he ever said that.

Golf contains half the banality of all evil

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

wasn't it a story back in the 90s that Trump let Russia put audio bugs in its golf carts and they were able to gather kompromat on many powerful people?

Mind-boggling that so-called "patriots" would vote for this Putin bootlicker

[–] cabron_offsets@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah. They’ve always been dumber than dogshit. They’re just doing what their daddy tells them to do, as ever. Reagan could have told them to be gay and they’d scramble to smoke dicks.

I would pay so much to have been born into that timeline.

I will not be voting for any person who does not support Ukraine, even if it means straying from my normal political views.

One more reason to not elect him but exile his ass to putinland

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Via an EM accelerated sled. No parachute or guidance systems though - just an 80 year old seatbelt. Thoughts and prayers though.

Make it strong enought to circle the Earth, so Putin gets a disgusting orange pulled pork delivered to his front door.

It won't be long until US troops start supporting the Russians.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Fuckin orange turnip, I really wish reagan was alive, as much as he was a piece of shit, he at least didn't trust the russians...and here we are with "his" party now literally sucking russian cock.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Reagan is the reason why there's such a huge wealth gap and practically no more middle class. Fuck him.

If Reagan's teleprompter had told him to trust Russians, he would have trusted Russians. This was a guy who cut a deal with Iran - the country holding a bunch of US citizens hostage - to not release those hostages until after his inauguration.

Next he will promise to invade Ukraine if elected.

He'll think Canada is Ukraine or Greenland.

[–] Grant_M@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

He and his pal Putin already agree on this!

[–] Reptorian@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This is yet another reason to vote for Joe Biden.

On a side note, to the Ukrainians, you might notice we do not mention the war or talk about it (including myself), but I am here to let you know that it warms my heart that you guys are fighting and I will contribute to keep the aid going. It might not be obvious, but we Americans still support you.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Former U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday blasted the scale of U.S. support for Ukraine and said that if he is reelected in November he would immediately "have that settled."

At a campaign rally in Detroit, Trump criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, calling him “the greatest salesman of all time” for Kyiv’s push to secure U.S. support in its effort to defend Ukraine against Russian aggression more than three years after Moscow's all-out invasion.

“I will have that settled prior to taking the White House as president-elect,” said Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee in the U.S. election.

Ukraine’s Western allies have been working to secure long-term assistance for Kyiv amid fears that Trump’s potential reelection could curtail U.S. support.

And NATO countries last week moved forward with a plan for the alliance to take over from the U.S. in coordinating military aid to Ukraine, a shift widely perceived as an effort to "Trump-proof" the Ukraine Defense Contact Group.

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday announced a $1.5 billion aid package for Ukraine, focused primarily on the energy sector and humanitarian assistance.
