A Perfectly Reasonable Amount of Schadenfreude about Things Happening to Trump & His Enablers (Part 2)

or a small pile of santorum.

Does Boebert’s kid have a gold tooth?

Ya, know. I keep seeing this ‘Perfectly Reasonable Amount of Schadenfreude’ title, and always think -“It’s not nearly enough”.

But the shit is starting to hit the fan.

At Mar-a-Lago, I guess you can substitue ketchup hits the fan.

Ooooh, I want you to write the pilot episode!

So this just came up on my newsfeed and gave me a small bit of comfort in these dark times:

The co-founders of former president Donald Trump’s media company filed a lawsuit Wednesday, claiming that Trump and other leaders had schemed to deprive them of a stake in the company that could be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

The scumbags who started Truth Social with the Cheeto Mussolini are upset cue smallest violin in the world. You may have to sit down for this one. Incredible as its seems, former president Trump got into a business relationship with someone, and them proceeded to rip them off. Unheard of, right? Who could have possibly predicted such a thing might happen? Except maybe every single person who Trump has ever had any kind of obligation to in his entire life.

Seriously, how the fuck did you think this was going to go dumbasses? The MAGAts who believe deepstate lizard people are eating babies, seem entirely rational next to these fucking idiots. You seriously didn’t see this coming? Ha fucking ha

Also I have to add, this would actually be a fucking huge deal for any other presidential candidate eight months before a general election. You are being sued by your cofounders for ripping them off in a major business deal. For anyone else this would be campaign-defining front page news. For Trump it barely makes the “in other news” of the week.

Trump supporters contend that that’s the shit that makes Trump a super smart badass.

This makes me happy: https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/01/investing/trump-money-judgments/index.html

Every time I hear a story about this family of fuck-ups, I wonder if they are related to the Palin’s of Alaska.

But, speaking to @BlankSlate and @Ann_Hedonia’s points, this is what makes them so successful with a certain class of MAGA voters. They’re REAL™ in a way they don’t consider the polished, well spoken and well behaved “traditional” politicians. So no matter how bad it is, no matter how hypocritical they may be revealed to be, it doesn’t shake their voting base. If anything, it strengthens it (making them nearly but not entirely immune to being primaried) while gutting moderate, or independant support.

I think Boebert’s problem (politically to be clear) is that she depended Too much on this factor, but didn’t actually bother to even try to support her constituents, while others play at least lip-service towards working towards something that makes it appear they’re doing work. And a certain degree of double-standardism working against her as a woman as well.

Obstruct the working of Congress on “principle”? No problems! Do it while having a sex scandal with a woman (if you’re male) such as Gaetz? No problems!

Do the same but be implicated in a scandal with another male if male, or having a scandal with a man as a woman, and it seems MAGA is less forgiving.

I like this last line:
“it comes down to it being a business decision on who you’re doing business with.”

I wonder if Trump will end up having to deal with someone that he’s stiffed or cheated in the past. He stepped on a lot of people on the way up. How many of them will he meet on the way down?

I dont’ understand this. I do know about the “black gold” Jed found on his land, but I don’t get the bit about lube.

A trail of lube? He has to have someway to find Lauren, right?

“Well, let’s turn on the black light and see. < click > Oh my… the Colors…!
Say, was that shed door always a Jackson Pollock*…?”.

*Jackson Pollack was an abstract painter

Chaya Raichik, the person who runs Libs of TikTok, sat down for an interview with a journalist named journalist named Taylor Lorenz. Apparently it didn’t go well for Raichik.

Verbally, she was beaten like pancake batter.

I couldn’t hang in there for more than ten minutes or so. I wanted the interviewer to slap her.

Maybe it is reference to the western Colarado Uinta basin ( which I think is in Boeberts district) crude oil is very waxy, to the point it’s almost solid if it stays in a tank truck/ rail car too long.
Wax and heavy lube oil ?

Apparently, so did Ms Raichik.

Or at least to lose her cool on camera.

Why do they call themselves ‘Libs’ ???

They don’t. The premise of the name is “(Let’s Make Fun of) the Libs of TikTok.”

So, that’s just another epic fail for them?
