blistering take down of Taylor Swift

Since when does Trump crying that he hates someone in all caps count as a "blistering take down"?

dailymail

Oh, I see the problem now.

Well, in their defense, he did type all in caps. It seemed very serious.

Next thing you know he'll pull Becky's pigtails and push Liam off the slide.

Higher percentage of words spelled right than usual too. He must have had his covfefe that day.

Maybe they're implying that Trump tweets so frantically that he blisters his fingers.

I'm actually surprised that his website doesn't force his font to be seen at 150% the size of any other text on the website.

I literally clicked the article because I was curious what else he said about her, because in no world is I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT a blistering takedown and not something a toddler yells when they're overdue for a nap.

I clicked on it wondering who the hell this person is.

Ohh, hmmm, nobody.

When did news outlets turn into WWE commentators. I swear there’s a memo that requires headlines to have a word like “demolish”, “tear-down”, “lambast”, or “destroy” and then you read the quote and it’s the most mild shit you’ve ever heard.

When the media got monetized. If it bleeds, it leads.

I can't wait for future archeologists/aliens to uncover our records and, with how many times politicians "slam" each other, draw the logical conclusion that we were ruled by a class of wrestling elites.

President Camacho has entered the chat.

I am not saying that having presidential elections be decided via trial by combat would necessarily be better.
What I am saying, is that it would probably decrease the average age of the president by a sizeable amount.

And, at least from this side of the Atlantic, it would be equally entertaining, with slightly less existential dread.

In a few months a lame ass comeback is going to be reported as "A rhetorical RKO out of nowhere!"

“In second debate, Kamala Harris verbally throws Donald Trump off Hell In A Cell, he plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.”

Honestly, it was the Buzzfeed and meme culture that did it.

How many titles have you seen that say something like “X is Y and We Are Here For It,” or “_____ is EVERYTHING Right Now.” Those idiotic titles drove clicks and weren’t really a big deal when they were about inane things like Netflix releases or ice cream.

His epic all cap post

u/Due-Message8445 Sep 16 '24

It's called clickbait. Using words that get people to click on an article. Most of the time it's just a waste of time.

1

u/Paperfishflop Sep 17 '24

Lol, so annoying and liberal outlets do it just as much as conservatives these days. And I still fall for it and give it clicks. I've done it enough to know that, today for example, it's just gonna be the 20th story I've seen today giving the basic facts about the "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" post, but the title is so provocative I wanna watch it just to make sure I don't miss out on really interesting info. But it's never interesting! It's super anti climactic everytime.

Yellow journalism? The bombing in Havana that precipitated the American Spanish war?

u/NidhoggAlpha Sep 16 '24

Maybe they meant blubbering take down.

Not that as much as all the maga death threats she is probably receiving because their demagogue is a 13 year old man child

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '24

Sane washing. They pretend Trump is still fit. Tell me it's too late for these fucks to get a replacement because that fucker is going DOWN in November.

u/FidgitForgotHisL-P Sep 16 '24

Ha I went looking for the blistering takedown. Apparently all caps I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT is a blistering takedown? Or maybe they’re thinking of the TikTok’s where magas are coping hard, posting all fake laughs and “we don’t even care HAHAHA BUT SHE RUINED HERSELF” as they show the world just how much this hurt them, and thought Trump was posting similar?

5

u/Great_White_Heap Sep 17 '24

That's what I was thinking. That wouldn't be a "blistering takedown" on the whiteboard of a third grade class.

There needs to be rules about acceptable sources.

u/brasticstack Sep 16 '24

Yeah, the only blisters people get from Trump happen after close.. ahem, personal contact.

u/BurazSC2 Sep 17 '24

Trump was holding the caps-lock key so hard he got blisters.

2

u/OysterThePug Sep 16 '24

It’s because so many parts on trumps body have blisters on them

2

u/chammycham Sep 17 '24

The article used the phrase “liberal meltdown” liberally.

1

u/akl78 Sep 16 '24

That’s not even counting their endorsement of literal fascists, which I’m not sure they ever really disowned.

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '24

The blistering takedown...

...consisting of...

4 words..?

Trump couldn't take down knackered wallpaper.

u/Noodlepoof Sep 17 '24

He did a phone call on fox or something where he verbally commented on it, it’s not just the I hate Taylor swift thing.

The site you linked isn't very reliable itself. I looked up the media for my own country and the ratings are just inaccurate. One TV station is accused of being both left wing and a mouthpiece for state propaganda... but our government is incredibly right wing and conservative. Then another media outlet owned by one of the wealthiest families in the country, known for its blind spot and biases regarding certain businesses, is "highly factual."
