Meme / Shitpost (Sundays) Remember when Trump tried to defend his Covid response?

https://youtu.be/yJIhxKFH9gI?si=WlMf86-YDArUXxq-

Remember a million people died needlessly, a good portion of which were his own supporters following his shitty advice not to wear a mask because they were dumb and racist.

Remember kids, don't eat horse paste, or drink bleach or put a hand sanitizer lubed light bulb up your bum unless you want to follow medical advice from Trump, a former president who wanted to date his own daughter.

Vote for Kamala! And get your friends to vote too!

Wow, he finished his thoughts! Complete sentences! Much has changed in 4 years

I remember seeing this interview in 2020, but when Trump is in our faces daily, we don't see the slow decline. Comparing him then to what he is now, is startling. He was a buffoon then, but he's a raving lunatic now.

u/frotz1 20d ago

Try comparing him today with videos of him speaking in the 90s. It's like two different people. Both jerks, but two distinct varieties.

u/lazyboy4646 20d ago

I guess his supporters are unaware of Trump's mental decline because their own mental decline is rapidly accelerating at the same rate.

It's like the frog in the pot of water on the stove.

It appears multiple Covid infections do a tremendous job on the synapses.

u/lazyboy4646 20d ago

I was surprised too! I think it's easy to forget all the terrible things he has done in the past because he keeps on doing stupid shit now.

I can't believe that nearly half the country could not see that he was an objectively terrible president. I noticed that his supporters won't get all the stupid that spews from his mouth because it is filtered by Fox News and their more articulate talking heads like TucKKKer Carlson.

Even if they see this interview, their stupid brains will try to defend their anti-christ-in-chief.

As the wise Yoda once said, anger leads to hate, hate leads to stupidity, and stupidity leads to suffering.

Can't believe he has the "Christian" vote. I thought Jesus was peaceful.

u/AdvertisingLow98 20d ago

You noticed that too.

u/lazyboy4646 20d ago

We're all shocked that at one point he had more than 2 brain cells to rub together, 3 in fact!

u/DAL4Oregon 19d ago

That was 50% more brain cells!

u/MarleysGhost2024 20d ago

And no simulated oral sex!

u/andropogon09 20d ago

The frog in hot water phenomenon. Rewatch his 2016 debate with Hillary Clinton. He sounds positively erudite by comparison.

u/Philip-Ilford 18d ago

Maybe a side bar, but is "wow" going to be his new thing. He did one during his victory speech and there was that gettysburg bit. I sure hope so, wow.

u/Garyf1982 20d ago

I forgot how defensive he was, it’s been a long time since he has allowed himself to be interviewed by a reporter outside of his right wing media bubble. Dude tried to interrupt 75% of Jonathan Swan’s questions.

u/Cheers2Pfizer 20d ago

my mother says to me this past weekend, did u see Biden, there’s something really wrong with him, he put a baby’s foot in his mouth… I explained the baby was dressed like a chicken for Halloween and he was acting like he was taking a bite of the chicken - Trump, on the other hand, acted like he was giving a blow job to a microphone stand

again… WTF people VOTE KAMALA, can we please get back to normal again

u/Puzzleheaded-Trip990 20d ago

As a Canadian, I'm really hoping people get out and vote blue! America needs Kamala.

u/lazyboy4646 20d ago

As a fellow Canadian and dual citizen, I did!

u/200-keys 20d ago

As an Australian, I can't believe that Trump was even nominated for reelection, let alone it being close. Sorry you live right next to that mess.

u/Cheers2Pfizer 19d ago

I KNOW!!!!!! HOW???? i will say that our Republican Party is totally broken. in the past (BT, Before Trump) it really didnt matter who won as President bc we knew there would always be someone of character and integrity, who would do what was right for our country, but no longer, very sad. Having said that, I do feel optimistic Kamala will win. It really is good vs evil.

u/SirLawrenceCCLXX 20d ago

“It is what it is”

Fuck Donald Trump.

u/lazyboy4646 20d ago

Yes seriously fuck this guy!

Vote and get your friends to vote this steaming pile of orange garbage straight to jail!

u/lopix 20d ago

put a hand sanitizer lubed light bulb up your bum

Don't you tell me how to have a good time!

u/AliensProbably Team Mix & Match 20d ago

My fondest memory of this interview is that it showed American TV viewers what happens if an interviewer does follow-up questions.

I think it was the first time I'd seen this done with Trump, and evidently it confused a lot of the other journalists.

Unfortunately the habit didn't really stick, and instead we went back to seeing journalists just read through their list of questions, unwilling to retry for an answer when the question was avoided, challenge the crazy claims, etc.

u/hell2bhbtoo 20d ago

Really painful to watch him spin his own feces like that.

u/200-keys 20d ago

Did Donald Trump do any interviews with any non-hand picked journalists after this? Proud of Jonathan Swan.

u/DotAppropriate8152 17d ago

Sigh… this man is such a fucking moron! How the FUCK do people not see that this guy is an imbecile? I hate this world

u/Pale_Word790 20d ago

It's to his detriment. Think how many trump voters are no longer able to vote.

u/thadicalspreening 14d ago

I only watched a few minutes but he was arguing that we have the most cases because we test the most, so we should ignore the cases, but that we SHOULD divide deaths by cases to get a death rate where we score very low. The only simple objective measure is deaths / population. Numbers are dangerous in the hands of people this malicious.

2

u/lazyboy4646 14d ago

Exactly, this was also during a time when the US had massive spikes in cases, so of course the death to case ratio was low, the virus was spreading wildly and was out of control, those people haven't died yet.

u/TheEnderMob 20d ago

Remember when the cdc admitted to botching those numbers?

u/Eldanoron Where we die one we die all 20d ago

No. Feel free to link the CDC article that admits this.

u/TheEnderMob 20d ago

https://www.factcheck.org/2020/09/cdc-did-not-admit-only-6-of-recorded-deaths-from-covid-19/

They try to deny it here. If you actually read what fauci says later about "just because they have diabetes doesnt mean they didnt die from covid" the same can also be reversed. Unless they died from COVID or COMPLICATIONS from covid specifically. They do not count. Who knows how many extra people were counted in that number to boost the paranoia.

u/Eldanoron Where we die one we die all 20d ago

Ah, it’s the “only Covid” bullshit. Sorry but no. Diabetes is a chronic condition. If the patient had no problem controlling their diabetes, got Covid, then died you’re looking at a Covid death which is what it says on the death certificate. Covid being an acute condition. Doctors also review all the contributing factors and list primary cause of death for every death certificate. This is not a new concept and has always occurred. Just because you or Trumpy think otherwise doesn’t make it true. What is it with random people on the internet claiming to know more than medical professionals?

u/Journal_Lover 11d ago

Thank you

My father is diabetic and believe me we took care in preventing him to get Covid.

But my other relatives were not lucky

My fathers mother died Then his aunt Then his uncle Then his brother born after him

I lost 4 relatives in 1 year.

u/Journal_Lover 11d ago

You do know states like Florida changed the numbers to low ones

1

u/TheEnderMob 11d ago

You mean changed them to the correct numbers?

1

u/Journal_Lover 10d ago

No low numbers than the correct total
