Deport him.

Yeah but he can identify person, woman, man, camera, TV...

[–] nshibj@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

That was 5 years ago. Make him take the test again

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

With a 50% success rate

So he's a convicted felon rapist who can't pass the citizenship test… probably should deport him

Trump also said in the past that the Continental Army took over the airfields during the American Revolutionary War.

He's not the best at history.

We had the best airfields during the revolutionary war. We dominated the skies. A lot of people don’t know this but the Air Force helped us defeat the British.

Nah, back then it was still the Army Air Corps. Separated under Buchanan

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 2 points 15 hours ago

A fellow history buff I see. I just find it amazing that Washington had the foresight to destroy all of the British air bases throughout the colonies.

Meh. This is up there with him saying "fuck". I don't really care if he knows a date off the top of his head - it's a non-issue.

I'm far more concerned about him shitting on the Constitution, turning the military and federal law enforcement on US citizens, metaphorically raping the economy, literally raping women, and his long list of actual crimes he's committed against the US.

He unleashes an actually-impactful scandal on daily basis: let's not get distracted by petty shit.

Phew! Good thing he was born here. What...?

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 12 points 1 day ago

He probably knows more about Russia than America.

[–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 2 points 1 day ago

He's american, he couldn't pass most tests.

[–] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I want to shit down this guy's throat and make him choke to death on my diarrhea but this is just a stupid fucking knowing the date kind of thing

Disagree. If it's knowledge that's needed to gain citizenship, and he's calling to strip citizenship, he should at least know "the date of a thing," yes?
