This

Of all the shit that comes with trump, this is the worst thing. For the next 4 years I cannot have a single fucking day without trump. It's going to be trump left, trump right, trump before, trump after, there is no escaping it. 4 years of 90% of the news being trump bullshit. kill me now.

Honestly, I think that's the top reason he went into politics. Narcissists need everyone to pay attention to them

[–] frunch@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

That's a pretty interesting observation, i never considered that.

I think that is partially true

Wether by design (probably) or accident, the cheeto takes all the headlines and there is no space left for the actual crimes they're committing, like making sure the rich get richer by tax cuts, the tarrif thing, etc.

I think a lot of it is just designed to ensure people aren't paying attention to what really matters, a magicians trick if you will

Less of a magicians trick and more like that time you were 2 and dad took your nose. Some fuckers still out there everyday looking for their damn nose.

Right, because only America will be affected by all this, just like how only Germany was affected by the Holocaust.

Which reminds me, the worst thing about that Hitler fellow is how I have to keep hearing about him.

If you genuinely think there is going to be a holocaust you should probably be planning assassination of government officials rather than complaining online.

The worst thing? The audacity.

[–] halykthered@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 weeks ago

Unfortunately, no matter how the rest of the next four years go, I fear we'll be hearing "Trump-era" for the rest of our lives.

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Even after, there's tons to undo and process for the history books.

When he got elected I added filters to my Lemmy app... Trump, Elon, musk, Tesla.

Half my front page was still full of Tusk.

Even in Canada 50% of news is about Trump

[–] LunarLoony@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

And the other 10% is Elon
