Such a gigantic ego for such a loser.
There are plans to create a 9-foot-tall version in bronze in the works
Oh good, that'll make a beautiful visual as well pull that piece of shit down!
"What an accurate reproduction of the shit running down his leg."
This man was never shot.
So so close...
So obnoxious of him.
What happened to right wingers? I clearly remember that narcism was universally considered a bad trait especially among conservatives. How are they accepting that?
Only the dictator can be a narcissist
What ever gave you the impression conservatives didn't glorify narcissists?
They were always shitting on teens doing anything even remotely individualistic and constantly talking about being humble. That's how I viewed my parents and grandparents generations between 90s and circa 2010.
That's never actually about humility though, that's about enforcing heirarchy. Dear Leader gets to be as arrogant as he wants, the kids deserve to get slapped into "their place."
The CEOs get their gold toilets, the prosperity gospel preachers their fleets of luxury cars, and the peons are to be humble and obedient.
Are we talking about the Canadian Conservative Party? Or am I missing something?
So self-involved
Looks like that guy on the left is humping Trumps leg.
edit: Turns out its a woman.
That's the woman. Who, ironically, couldn't adequately cover Trump's body mass. 😂
The mark of a modern Republican/fascist
Now this MF is building “statues” of himself. How many red flags can they “slip” past?
There are plans to create a 9-foot-tall version in bronze in the works, according to the project’s website.
Good fucking lord.
We'll just cut the head off that down theroad.
I look forward to seeing the video of you guys pulling the statue down.
Holy fuck that's so cringe. What a fucking narcissist.
There are plans to create a 9-foot-tall version in bronze in the works, according to the project’s website.
The site asks for contributions ranging from $10, which will earn donors a vote on the location of where the statue will be permanently installed, to $25,000 to receive a limited quarter-life-size bronze replica.
Contributors who give $4,500 will receive a 12-inch sculpture. “These sculptures are the same one’s [sic] being offered to big money donors to The Trump Campaign,” the site says.
Jesus fucking Christ...
Another grift. Should have known.
BTW, Trump was never hit by a bullet. He hurt his ear when a SS guard rushed to cover him and hit him with his gun holster.
Interesting. Where'd you hear that?
This makes me more suspicious that the whole fucking thing was staged
I doubt it as many people hate Trump and want him to die. He definitely leaned into the whole victim thing but I'm sure the attempt was real.
Like the fact that SS knew about the shooter way before he even set up his rifle? Or the lack of investigation into the guy? I mean they went on and on and on about hunters laptop but an actual attempt on Trump's life? Never mentioned before this.
"lack of investigation" is fairly normal when the person is dead. Anyways, it's really, really, really obvious the Secret Service decided to let the kid take his shot before they killed him.
Here's the thing...
He's a fat useless cunt.
The end.
The world will be a better place when he's dead.
I disagree in the long term. He'd disappear, but the problem would persist. Someone else would eventually take his place.
That being said, he's clearly harmful and I can't come up with a better solution, so...
Every day, I wake up in hope of seeing that headline.
symbolizes the divine intervention as well as the man and his message of unity and resilience for which America stands
So, Jesus "giving his own life" (for 3 days) is a huge deal, and a huge sacrifice, but then God kinda "volunteers" Corey Comperatore to die for Trump, without asking?
It gets messy when people act like God has an active hand in every single little thing that happens. It's right up there with "everything happens for a reason". You know, rape happens for a reason. You just don't know why yet.
I like to frame it as free will & sometimes things just...happen. Accidents happen. Free will principle. Sometimes bad things happen because of bad people, sometimes bad things happen because you're stupid...it just seems to make more sense than an overly involved god.
If he is gonna spend public money to worship himself, I at least expect the statue to be slightly higher quality than this piece of crap.
It was quite an artistic choice to make the female secret service agent look like she is cowering in fear rather than the reality that she was trying to tackle/take a bullet for the dumbass target who wouldnt stay down.
Then by comparison you have the male agent who looks like hes at the beach and not even concerned about gunfire at all. Its actually impressive how much misogyny is dripping out of this statue
Not to mention we all know Trump was not anywhere close to the tallest of the people on that stage
they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
