His dementia is really hammering home the fucking degenerate state his mind is in. Why would they name the stadium after him?

Because if they don't he'll sue them for being very unfair, and then he'll get the stadium named after him and a $300 million dollar cheque. He owns the judicial branch and unlike every other president before him he is willing to use it as a tool for his petty revenge. Turns out that every other president actually believed in a higher power then themselves, be it God or country. Donald doesn't believe in anything.
You're right. I said all the time that Trump only cares about Trump. I don't know why I forgot in this case. Maybe it is because it felt so fucking random...
Oh fuck off you narcissistic twat just FUCK OFF!
Was at a bar watching NFL with the bros when they kept showing his fucking face.
We tried to ignore it at first but they just kept showing it.
We started loudly booing. At one point I shouted "WHY AM I BEING FORCED TO STARE AT A FELON RAPIST JUST TO WATCH FOOTBALL?"
This bar is in California, but I guarantee some conservatives were there. Too bad. They're filth and are putting felons and rapists on television during football games. I don't give a fuck if it hurts their feeling for me to say this shit in a public space. Decorum goes out the window when you're forcing sports fans to sit and listen to a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and insurrectionist.
The NFL is getting pretty fucking gross. Just in the last few weeks they've put a felon rapist on the air, one of their ex-quarterbacks stabbed an old man, and a new player ran from the cops and then blew his brains out.
The fuck is going on with that organization?
The fuck is going on with that organization?
My two-cents on the matter: The NFL's relationship with problematic decisions and/or optics, have been a thing for a long time now.
- Military flyovers^1^
- Strictly IMO: player "draft" process resembles an auction
- Predominantly black player base with white team ownership
- "Redskins" as a team name for far longer than the public felt it acceptable
- Entire league suffering from concussions^2^, life-altering injuries after retirement
- History of team owners doing all kinds of problematic stuff, but keeping their jobs regardless
- My problem here is that we're talking commercial sports, an institution one could feasibly use as a refuge from politics. But we add rah-rah military back in, opening the door for nationalism, because screw all that.
- There are lawsuits out regarding a possible cover-up (going back a long time) by the league in this area, as highlighted in recent news.
You can destroy my country, subjugate it's people, but don't you dare mess with my football!

I feel like the problems you listed with the NFL have always been there, you may have just glazed over them since it only involved the organization and players\coaches and not a president.
You forgot Pedophile.
One could stop supporting an already problematic organization.
My Dad had season tickets for an NFL team for 25 years, and we went to a LOT of games together. Then the team suddenly moved, and it was heart-breaking. We got another team, but it wasn't the same.
In the late-90s, I started my own company, and since I had to carve a lot of time out of my life, I gave up sports once and for all. I haven't watched an entire game of any sport in over 25 years, and I haven't missed it.
My only major sports indulgence today is the Olympics.
Thanks for the story. I played football in highschool but the adoption and amplification of jingoist bullshit in the 90s removed any interest I had in it.
Curious: Cardinals and Rams?
Hah, gotcha! It was the Cleveland Browns. I don't even care about sports any more but I still hate the Ravens and Bill Bellichek, who turned out to be even more of a massive dickhead than we always thought.
Yeah, a big part of why I was able to stay away was because of the whole commercial circus around pro sports. Now they have to have big parties for the drafts, etc. It's gross.
And frankly, the REAL reason sports is so big these days is because of gambling. The wealthy want to get your money any way they can, so now they have us betting on the Circuses part of the Bread & Circuses.
They market strongest to young men, hoping to turn them into gambling addicts when they are young, so they can waste their lives throwing away any disposable income they encounter.
They're also working on figuring out a way to get us to pay some exorbitant price for the Bread part.
Rich motherfuckers ruin everything.

That's where bankrupting farmers comes in. They bankrupt smaller farms and buy up the land. Billionaires have been buying arable land all over the place for a while now and then there's also the agribusiness conglomerates gobbling up farms and land wherever they can.
They've commodified every aspect of survival so now their only options are to squeeze and concenrrate. Fitting that there's an orange at the helm.
I absolutely love that they included a wider shot in the article that most people probably scrolled past, but I caught this in it:
what a fucking patriot
well he's not kneeling
This should be its own post
"He says I'm number one!"
I get it now. He just wants to be a bad guy, wrestler, just like Andy Kaufmann.
Is there a word for that gesture that he keeps making with his fist there? I feel like he thinks it's a flex but just outs him as a dictator.
Trump is too stupid to even know what the Aryan Fist is. My guess is he thinks he's being iconic by mimicking the gesture he made when he was "shot" during the campaign. Which makes me all the more convinced that the entire thing was an act since everything Conservatives do is completely performative.

Probably not wrong. He might know it as “the white power fist” which is the more common phrase in the US afaik.

I could see that too.
Which makes me all the more convinced that the entire thing was an act since everything Conservatives do is completely performative.
When was there any doubt that it was a false flag? Dude doesn’t even have a scar, let alone a bullet wound lmao
There it is. And it's as bad as I thought.
Yeah I believe it’s sign language for “I’m an incredibly narcissistic asshole”

How much did the shit show cost US taxpayers?
How many people went hungry, for absolutely no win in the end?
I honest to fucking God don't understand why the democrats are so fucking pathetic.
If the Federal Government is shutdown all of the secret service agents should be sent home. I bet Mike Johnson would end the shutdown really quickly if he and trump couldn’t party while everyone else is struggling to feed their kids
[off topic?]
For those who didn't know, Donald previously screwed up an entire football league by trying to overleverage.
He does that to everything.
I remember reading this story back in 2015.
Trump and Harrah's negotiated a 50/50 partnership in Atlantic City back in the 1980s. The lawyers hammered out everything, both sides signed, and before 24 hours had passed, Trump was suing Harrah's.
Eventually, Harrah's decided it wasn't worth trying to deal with Donnie, so they just walked away.
All of Donnie's casinos went bankrupt, and Harrah's is still in business.
He did that after trying to buy an NFL team but getting denied by at every attempt by NFL management.
This is why my dad hated Trump before he was in politics
My old man said the same thing. He also killed the USFL. A Spring (American) football league he pushed to play in the Fall to compete with the NFL, which led to its downfall.
Here's how he pissed off the Manhattan elites he was so desperate to join.

It's sort of amusing that the profound psychological issues that make him the most corrupt POTUS in history, the most self-absorbed POTUS in history, the most dishonest POTUS in history and the most deranged POTUS in history also make him the most tone-deaf POTUS in history.
At least I know he is always fucking miserable that he doesn't have more. (More money, more popularity, more praise)

I can't find a longer video than what's in the article. It's pretty harsh. I had to check since sometimes it's not as bad as they say. What is he reading?
Edit: I had to do the thing, it's in the article:
The jeers came down even harder when Trump, flanked by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, read out the military Oath of Enlistment to swear in new troops.

Oooo I can't wait for that thing to happen. We will all be alive to witness it. It will be a day of celebration and healing.
