"I'm stepping down as Pres! I realised I'm a piece of shit that can't run shit!"

"april fools!"

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 13 points 19 hours ago

Time for a court ruling that states saying "april fools" is not sufficient grounds to reverse a valid statement of resignation.

I would take permanent psychic damage if this actually occurred

[–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 25 points 19 hours ago

Fuck it, why not? Everything else this administration does is a joke.

He’s gonna suck off Netanyahu live on Fox News, with play-by-play calling by Snoop Dogg and Kid Rock

Again?

Ohhhh, live on faux news. Yes, that's a bit different from last time he had ~~Bubba~~Bibi in that disgusting hole on that disgusting orange face.

News like these are the reason why April Fools' Day is meaningless these days.

[–] plz1@lemmy.world 13 points 19 hours ago

This is where he surrenders the US to Russia, right?

[–] Maiq@piefed.social 16 points 20 hours ago

Were all fools now, at the clown show.

It's Thursday before a 3 day weekend. This is when they always release news that tanks the stock market. He's going to announce boots on the ground, I guarantee it.

Oh shit. My days are off because I just got put on third shift lol.

Wouldn't surprise me if he's that stupid, in all honesty. I just hope the rest of the world doesn't go supporting him in fears of becoming the next target. The guy clearly has a desire to ruin USA. It was American voters who elected him. We should just let them get what they wanted. A stupid asshole ruining his own country. Let it happen and avoid getting involved.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

With rampant voter suppression, musk being involved with voting machines, and the fact that Trump straight up admitted the election was rigged multiple times, I really don't think it was the American voters who elected him.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 2 points 5 hours ago

I dont think anything in America is genuine and works for the best of the people.

[–] Napster153@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Bet ya'll he'll give an out of season April Fools Joke

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Fitting for a fool like him.
