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

Silver lining and all that.

It’s the small cuts, the little wounds, that I hope he feels the most deeply. Will this amount to anything? I don’t know. But I’m still happy that one of his precious buildings is in trouble.

And Horsey Sauce!

If your roast beef has a silver lining, don’t eat it.

Yep. Biden won Georgia by 11,779 votes.

Getting to flip off Trump’s building was one of the highlights of my trip to Chicago earlier this year.

Attaboy!

I did the same, only six years ago. Both the river and bus tour guides mocked it.

I just went to see if that 338,000 figure had been updated (it has: over 405,000 in the 24 hours after the debate!), and I found this gem from JD Vance, reported by Fox News on Wednesday:

“We admire Taylor Swift’s music, but I don’t think most Americans, whether they like her music or are fans of hers or not, are going to be influenced by a billionaire celebrity who I think is fundamentally disconnected from the interests and the problems of most Americans,” Vance said.

(Emphasis mine.)

Is it possible that he and his campaign can be so totally unself-aware as to describe her like that?

Well of course not. One of those billionaires can’t sing.

Jed Vance, go back to Kentucky.

I did it in New York in 2022 (different building than the two of you, though).

Yes, it’s not only possibly but quite certain that the Unshaven One has considerably less self-awareness than the feline brood of childless cat ladies.

It’s particularly ironic because Taylor Swift exemplifies exactly the hard work, determination, and self-made success that Republicans are always yammering about. The Unshaven One’s complete lack of awareness apparently also extends to ignorance about the background and interests of his orange boss, who is happy not only to screw over ordinary Americans to enrich himself, but is also an ignominious dumbass.

It’s Vance’s 4-D chess strategy to get us to admit that the America-hating fuckstick is an actual billionaire, our snarkiness on the subject notwithstanding.

The tour guide on our river cruise didn’t mock Trump’s building (though I could tell he really wanted to), but he mentioned that the penthouse was on the market for $30 million, and then proceeded to mention throughout the tour how the penthouses on many of the other buildings in the Loop had recently sold for much smaller amounts. I think the most expensive one he mentioned sold for $12 million.

The unspoken implication being that Trump can’t find a buyer for his penthouse because it’s ridiculously overpriced and nobody wants to spend that much money to be associated with him.

Laura Loomer?

Again…Laura Loomer?

The man has gone a step too far.

JD Vance.
Racist, pure idiotic statements about pet eating.

I mean at least Hannibal isn’t a real person.
Injecting bleach? Everyone knew that was bad ju-ju.

I’m feeling ill.

(It’s called epicaricacy, curable)

I can see the river babbling in mocking. What did the bus tour guides say?

p.s. I got y’all beat. I flipped off three melon felon properties on one trip (Seoul, Busan, and Daegu) a few years ago. :smiley:

What - no Trump Tower Pyongyang?

Sadly, nope.

It’s unlikely to pull in any new voters, but remember that the MAGA crowd has a bring-a-fairy-back-to-life belief in Trump’s deep concern for them. Look at all the clapping and cheering at his rallies.

Vance used to be a very vocal anti-trumper. I sometimes wonder if he’s executing an undercover operation to lose trump the election.

No, I don’t really believe that, but you have to admit, if it were true he could hardly be doing a more effective job of it.
