I genuinely wonder how long it will be before he starts to have public statues built of himself with federal funds on federal land
I can't wait to see his shin splint medals.
This man has as much class as a rose gold butt plug.
He doesn't have nearly that much class. He is a gold painted plastic non-body-safe buttplug at best.
Gold spray-painted rigid hard-plastic non-body-safe knockoff buttplug.
With that sharp ridge of plastic at the meeting points, called flash, because they didn't bother to clean it up before moving it down the line.
Nah, solid rubber from recycled tires.
What's wrong with my rose gold butt plug? ☹️
It's tacky. Consider onyx with jade filigree.
It's 2025. We're doing gunmetal or titanium only.
Culture always reverts to brutalism in times of uncertainty.
This is fascism.
How are there still people in denial about it?
Denial? They'll argue with you about it.
No they aren't the Itilian one would go hard as a bit of art for an anti-fascist punk album. The other one belongs in the margins of a middle school history book so you can see this weird shit.
what a fuckin' loser. also. so we're clear, he's trying to make his face inescapable so you can't ignore him
A common practice with dictators
yup. that's how we know why dictators do this. millennia of precedent. they're little losers on their insides so they have to project power outwardly and make themselves inescapable. they start by going after the most vulnerable people in society because their strength is a lie. they fear going after someone strong will reveal their truth
Stalin did this
The Kim dynasty.
Hitler, Mussolini, Salazar, Franco, Stalin, the Kim family, Mao Zedong, Putin, Khadafi, Saddam Hussein, Trump, etc.
Nothing new. What do they have in common?
This is a standard practice for dictators
Still unbelievable what US Americans voted for.
How long before you get run over by the "I didn't vote for this " crowd who sit home and watch desperate housewives while typing furiously.
The refrain of the American coward: “how dare you suggest I’m not doing everything I can? What have YOU done, big shot?”
Haha also true
Well if that isn’t the most Orwellian thing I’ve seen IRL I don’t what is.
It's not orwellian, it's just fascist. Check out what mussolini was doing
The banners remind me of 1984.
They remind me of FUUUUUUCK!
There is no difference between this and Kim Jong Un.
I can see the the kinda yin-yang thing they are going for; Lincoln the president who ended slavery and Trump, the guy who wants to turn us into slaves for the oligarchy.
I see it more as Lincoln, the President who saved the Union and Trump, the asshole who intentionally destroyed it.
There is no wrong answer when it comes to horrifying art.
I'm sure it's made of fire-retardant material. But maybe we should test it just to make sure.
Idk about fire retardant but there sure is a picture of a retard that should be fired.
Fired at. By real assassins, not the ones they planted, including the SS' gun holster/belt that 'shot' his ear
Why did they use his 'I'm currently shitting myself' expression?
It's his official photo. The same thing in an 8x10 frame is hanging in every Federal building.
That just makes me wonder why they used his 'surreptitiously shitting' expression for the official photo.
From what I've read, he wears diapers, and regularly shits himself. I want to believe this is the truth, because it would be funny.
I think it has to be. This has been corroborated as far back as when The Apprentice was filming.
Someone had the nickname wet wipes because it became part of his job to change him from time to time when he shit himself. He also completely ignores it, or might not be aware it's happening.
It leads credence to the story that he smells really bad
Someone needs to draw a big cock and balls directed at that mouth on that face.
Iron Cross or the Reichsadler seems more appropriate
That wouldn't anger anybody. Left or right.
I wonder how flammable something like that is.
I'd give 20-1 odds that it's a Chinese-made print on petroleum-based material, and highly unlikely to be canvas. So it would make beautiful art as it burns and drips.
Edit: picture this- this building with this banner at night. The banner in flames at a rightward angle. At the bottom of the banner where it's burning, the cheaply made plastic based banner melts as fast as it burns. Dripping, black molten plastic stalactites feed tiny black plastic stalagmites below. Freedom and law are seen in burn barrels behind the building.
Like a scene from a dystopian scy fi movie
Burn it
Paint ball target practice.
