White people love Wayne Brady because he makes Bryant Gumble look like Malcom X.

All that prayer and the best God can come up with is announcing tariffs, cancelling them, announcing them again, cancelling them again...

  • Pretty bold of the 3 in the front to be protesting police brutality and racial inequality just like Colin Kaepernick, right??¿?

  • Doesn't their book have something about false idols and a golden calf made of $100 bills with their face on it?!

Doesn't he wear adult diapers?

[–] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

obvious fake though; the toilet isn't gold plated. he wouldn't touch it. he'd just shit himself and let someone change it later, rather than touch a non-gold toilet.

The day Trump dies will be a very interesting time for his supporters. I could see it going either two ways. One would be them denying it and treating it like when Elvis died people reported seeing him in public and the other possibility is them going full Jamestown.

[–] Ultraviolet@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I don't think the administration will publicly admit his death. They'll just deepfake him and claim he can't make any appearances outside of video communication for national security reasons.

Elon bets on that Trump dies, I bet, he want to be president, I bet

This is why I think Marc Maron was right: The guy needs to have a massive stroke, so his supporters can see him alive with weakness and disability.

[–] wanderwisley@lemm.ee 3 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

I could definitely see that happening and Trump end up in a wheelchair like Stephen Hawking having to use a robot voice to speak or even better we end up with a weekend at Bernie’s situation.

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 3 points 4 hours ago

There's little chance a person of trump's advanced age would be able to work out how to use a speech synthesiser like that, and given that trump can't read, zero chance that he could do it.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

It would end up like the eternal emperor of warhammer...

No matter his age and cholesterol levels, they'll claim 'the left finally got him'.

Thanks, Obama

This is why I was hoping for an electoral defeat instead of a successful assassination.

It's not the act that concerned me, it was the wild chains of disparate psychopathy that ensued from his followers. No better way to make a martyr than kill whatever they're preaching about.

This shocking outcome has been a lesson and loss for his followers, but they are no longer emboldened by his bullshit.

3/4 of them will starve while awaiting resupply from the King of England?

Not sure how true this is but it looks like a church group from Dec 2019 that visited the White House.

Came here for the same question. Logic says yes, but realism says this fat bitch would never let normies touch him.

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe he billed them for that

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

Maybe? There's no way he would have done that without some economic compensation

[–] VerdantSporeSeasoning@lemmy.ca 4 points 18 hours ago

Yup, BuzzFeed shows it coming from a Riley Gaines account. https://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/donald-trump-praying-picture

It's creepy that they're doing some weird religious gesture, but I think it's a lovely sign of the times that one of the freaks on the left (as we're looking at it) just has to record this emotional and reflective moment for their socials lol

Matthew 6

  • 5 And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
  • 6 But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

One of my favorite verses. Preachers will do all kinds of contortionist shit to wriggle out of this one. Usually they don't have to though, because their followers only read the parts of the book the preacher cherrypicks.

There's an old concept I like- The best cure for christianity is reading the bible.

[–] pinheadednightmare@lemm.ee 31 points 1 day ago (5 children)

I just don’t know how he became their Christian idol when he doesn’t even go to church and he has been open about that in the past.

Literally, this is a suicide cult.

[–] Glitterbomb@lemmy.world 41 points 1 day ago (4 children)

When tf do they start killing themselves please.

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 18 hours ago

Really more of a murder-suicide/doomsday cult. They don't want anybody alive when they're not.

At least Heaven’s Gate kept to themselves. Applewhite was a repressed, self hating gay man who developed that kind of friendship damaged gay men and damaged gay women do. They didn’t proselytize in the later years, they didn’t kill others.

Trump is more a Jim Jones. Pretend to hold an ideology you don’t necessarily believe (Jones was known for being progressive on race - but was a sexual predator and one wonders what the benefit was). Once the jig is up, take everyone down with you.
