I wasn’t sure where to put this, so I hope this thread is OK.
Apparently there’s an ad running that literally says God sent Trump to save the US.
I’m just flabbergasted.
They’ve tried it with Ronnie D, why not with Donnie T?
That was a month ago.
I’m looking at the angelic face of that little baby Donald and picturing myself sent back in time to stop the evil before it spread…
He’s not the Messiah, he’s a very naughty boy.
That video is hilarious! Gets up early and works late? Delivers a grandchild? Waits for Melania to get done before he does something and politely tells her friends to come back real soon? This video was obviously written while smoking crack.
I also thought the part about Melania and her lady friends was weird. I suspect it’s some messaging around traditional gender roles.
It certainly is hilarious. At first I thought for sure that was a parody video-- so ridiculuously over the top, in the voice of the late Paul Harvey, talking about what a tireless, hardworking leader he is…it reeks of irony. But apparently it was created by a pro-trump group. Clearly trumpers are immune to irony and parody.
The Lincoln Project has already broadcast their version…
Thread-winner!
Naughtius Maximus, even.
Does it end with “I’m God, and I approve this message.”
or maybe Biggus Handus ?
I think we’ve heard enough from you, Sillius Sodus.
If the best an omniscient, omnipotent, omni-benevolent god can come up with is Trump, what does that say about the god?
I think I speak for most of the nation when I say…what?
“But the ball does go faaaaaaar…”
He’s just following in Dubya’s footsteps:
I call upon all nations to do everything they can to stop these terrorist killers. Thank you. Now watch this drive.
I used to hear this story about Gene Roddenberry. For the original Star Trek series, Gene hired Alexander Courage to write the theme song we all came to know and love. Courage didn’t write any lyrics for it, so Roddenberry went ahead and wrote some lyrics for it. Roddenberry didn’t intend for anyone to ever sing the lyrics, but doing so meant he got to split the residuals with Courage whenever the song was used. Fans of Roddenberry speak of this in terms of his business acumen, but it always came off as a dick move to me. Roddenberry deliberately screwed over Courage leaving him royally pissed off.
I very much see that attitude among Trump supporters. A Fox broadcaster talked about how saavy Trump was at merchandising referring to his new shoes. To a lot of us, Trump comes off looking cheap and desperate hocking ugly shoes to the public while his followers see it as an example of his brilliance. He’s a viable candidate because he’s got millions of followers for whom he can do no wrong.
I’ve heard of a similar theory with trump and his followers. Back in the 2016 debates with Hillary Clinton, she accused him of avoiding full payment of his taxes, and instead of denying it, he said 'that’s because I’m smart". His followers were not enraged or disappointed that their hero was an admitted tax-dodger while they dutifully had to pay their full share. Rather, their take was that he was a smart businessman, and also, that he was ‘testing the system’ and proving it was broken so he could fix it. “The system is broken, and I should know, because I regularly break it! So I alone can fix it!” 
I’ve heard many such stories about the Great Bird of the Galaxy. He started up Lincoln Enterprises right after the series ended so that he could sell trinkets and mementos to the rubes, er, fans, including that stupid IDIC thing he introduced into the show just that he’d have something else to sell.
They’re called “royalties” for a reason…,
