Trump has COVID!

Great fleas have little fleas
Upon their backs to bite 'em.
And little fleas have lesser fleas,
And so ad infinitum!

And my sound track for him and all the rest of the scum in the White House with Covid is from
Chicago - Cell Block Tango or He Had it Coming.

I thought for sure that was going to link to this video.

Nice. Brings be back to being eight years old, watching the Dick Cavett Show with my mom.

This puts it in perspective: more Trump associates are positive than in all of Taiwan this week.

Maybe. I think Mitch’s approach has been a ‘wait and see’ strategy from the start. He’s very careful not to get cross with Trump’s base - because it’s his base, too.

I go back to the psychology of authoritarians who want to dismantle democratic systems. They govern by both explicit and implied consent, which is why they almost always tell you what they’re going to do in advance. Trump is telling us now what he intends to do: he intends to reject the will of the majority. He does not intend to cooperate with the incoming government if he loses power, which itself is something he will resist until being forced from the White House.

We’re in for a shit storm these next few months, and only these next few months if we’re fortunate.

And I thought for sure it was going to link to this one

It’s dated, but still funny

If this were a football game, Trump would blow up the plan of the other team owners, spend wildly on a few big-name free agents, reschedule all games in autumn, then sue the NFL and win $3.

I see what you did there.

I think this is worth sharing:

It’s a classic.

That was brutal. And hilarious. In an Armageddon- Götterdämmerung kind of way.

What movie is that from? I guess German speakers find it odd to watch with the English captions. I wanted the room to blow up at the end, but that’s just me, I guess.

It’s from Downfall. It’s a common meme to subtitle that scene. There are online tools that allow you to do it without any video editing knowledge.

I have so much to learn… :kissing_heart:

One of my favorites is when the tell Hitler about changes to the game for Dragon’s Age 2.

Downfall is definitely worth watching if you’ve never seen it. It’s about Hitler’s last days in the bunker at the end of World War 2.

The meme is so popular that many people have never seen the scene with the true subtitles. So, here it is in case you’re wondering what was actually being said.

Thanks. I’m generally reticent to compare Trump to Hitler, but there’s certainly something recognizable in his obsession with loyalty and blaming everyone else for his failures.

I’m reticent to compare people to Hitler as a general rule, but trump’s middle name should be “Godwin”.

The scary thing is, it’s not hard to imagine the actual subtitles being very close to things trump has probably ranted and raved about in meetings with his inner circle.
