    I’m more disappointed by the US hockey team deciding have a celebrity locker room party with Kash Patel.

    If I were that guy that actually scored the goal, I would be super pissed. Putting in all that work, then losing teeth earlier in the game but still playing, then gutting out that last play, only to have the President pretend to be him without putting in all that work.

    Now that I think about it, though, it is a direct allegory for Donald Trump’s life. Always taking credit for the achievements of others, and putting his name on buildings he did not build himself.

      The player that scored the goal laughed along with everyone else. To top if off, his own mother is a former US women’s hockey player.

      Kinda working the opposite way these days. Every wild headline is a glaring reminder that he’s certainly a child rapist and he has no skill at anything except being awkward and gross

    It always amazes me how the people who couldn’t stop crying about Kaepernick taking a knee for the anthem (wahhhh don’t mix politics with sports waahhhh), suddenly don’t have shit to say when the director of the fucking FBI is partying with the US hockey team.

      who couldn’t stop crying about Kaepernick taking a knee for the anthem

      Them: “Don’t protest in a violent, destructive, or even mildly inconvenient manner”

      Kaepernick “Ok…”

      Them: “No, not like that!” (Quiet part): “Just stfu and don’t protest at all.”

      Kaepernick’s method was absolutely genius because it doesn’t even cause any sort of obstruction or mild inconvience. People crying about it were really telling on themselves.

      It’s not amazing at all. They’re hypocrites. The only principle the adhere to is no accountability for themselves and totalitarian repression for everyone else.

      I don’t mind the director of the fucking FBI partying with the US hockey team.

      What I do mind is the director of the fucking FBI partying with the US hockey team on the taxpayers’ dime.

      Yeah he played on a team, and the opposing team let him score 4 goals, and putin was old too, like he should’ve been embarrassed to have people let him win like that.

        I know it’s never gonna happen because Donald knows deep inside how pathetic he is but… Man wouldn’t it be amazing if he tried to do this in real life and fight a Canadian hockey player? He’d probably fall and break a hip long before he has a chance to though.

    He’s barely clever enough to be a puck: he’s the center of attention alright, but he’s dumb as, well, a lump of rubber, and he’s being pushed around by clever players.

    I instinctively downvoted this out of pure disgust. Then undid it because unfortunately this is relevant news, not his post. Yuck.

    “Unhinged” is not really a word with any value anymore as it relates to him. It implies that he’s crazy, but he is not. He’s got a rotten brain and a rotten soul and he works in the service of America’s/Humanity’s enemies. That’s not “unhinged”, that’s just plain hostility and malevolence.
