And no mention of the “non-miracle” shooting of the firefighter, So much empathy there. Apparently he was just a loser and sucker.

I assume it will be understood that if you have a meeting with Trump and want him to listen to what you have to say you had better be staying in the Trump Hotel and be wearing a $100K Trump watch, otherwise he won’t give you the time of day.

So this just happened, because that’s where we are as a democracy right now.

Personally I think Harris should release a categorical denial: “No, I have not been using the dark arts to emasculate Donald Trump. If Donald Trump feels his pathetic male organs getting more feeble and pathetic from day to day, its not due to ancient spells and incantations emanating from the Harris 2024 campaign. I categorically deny that my supernatural powers have anything to do with the creeping sense of dread and physical impotence currently rising in the former president”

That implies that Trump would show gratitude or favortism to people who have already given him money. That’s not the way it works. Trump is nice to people who have something that he wants. Once he has it, there is no further obligation.

I’m not saying that buying the watch will instill any obligation on his part, just that if you don’t buy a watch you don’t have a chance. It’s a $100K entrance fee to show that you aren’t just some schmuck off the street but are actually serious about doing business.

In other words Trump did a vanity search on Google and found that it didn’t match the [printouts](https://futurism.com/the-byte/trump-aide-wireless-printer-good-news) his aide had been giving him.

I love how this doesn’t deny that Harris _has_ supernatural powers – just that she’s not using them to emasculate Trump.

If I’m not mistaken Google adjusts its algorithm to users’ search histories, so if Trump is only seeing bad stories about himself and good ones about Harris, it’s probably because those are the sources he’s clicked most often.

But of course he’s a solipsistic moron, so he thinks the results he’s getting are the ones everyone’s getting.

You better have a lot more money left, or something else Trump wants. Trump doesn’t do gratitude.

I don’t believe that Google is manipulating their results. Even if they were, I don’t know what law they’re breaking. In fact, isn’t that kind of guaranteed by the First Amendment?

The same law that prevents companies from firing people for posting racist social posts. Oh wait …

Still, I don’t doubt Trump will try to have Google prosecuted if he’s re-elected.

If Trump becomes President again, the First Amendment will become “_first I decide to do whatever I want and you know what you can do with your Amendment_.” And Roberts’ SCOTUS will say ‘_yes Sir whatever you say Sir_.’

I was going to ask why you’d need him to give you the time of day if you’ve got a watch, but then I remembered it’s a Trump watch so it’s probably lying about the time.

Since trump and his MAGA supporters don’t seem to live in reality, a Trump watch won’t even be correct twice a day.

In all seriousness I wonder whether the Orange-u-tan’s ear was not hit by a bullet or a fragment thereof but, rather, a piece of the firefighter’s skull.

I don’t think I have the vocabulary necessary that would accurately express how this makes me feel. I saw it earlier and I just want to scream. President Zelensky is willing to stand next to this fucking garbage piece of shit for the sake of his country and his people, to be looked at and spoken to in such a way, just makes me hurt for him so much.

God damn, I ache for justice.
