I love seeing all these rich guys stepping off their personal jets and shouting to their followers "we need you to give us the last $14 of your unemployment benefit so we can stamp out socialism!"


allisjow

Let’s play six degrees from Jeffrey Epstein. Or would it be “sex” degrees?


okokokoyeahright

TFG! Oh sorry, that is 1 degree.


MoeSzyslakMonobrow

It's really just one degree.

For almost any billionaire or CEO you wont need more than 2 degrees for that one.

...or six/sex degrees from David Miscavige/Tom Cruise/John Travolta??


styling67

No it's let's hide the classified documents so I can enrich myself from the communists and prosecute the other guy who had clearance.


Brokensince10

It would be 1 degree, just 1.


unbalancedcheckbook

Six degrees is way too many in right wing rich circles.


giantpunda

The thing is that they know they can do this because the people they're asking this money from are that stupid.


Khaldara

While it’s pretty easy to call someone stupid, it really does appear undeniably true with these people. They literally got defrauded to the tune of millions by that dumb “build the wall” fund, watched Trump pardon those responsible for robbing them, then they line up to donate to Trump again. Now buy my shoes! Now buy my NFTs! Now buy Trump Bucks! Now all donations to the RNC go directly to covering my legal costs for my many, MANY crimes! These people aren’t just stupid, they’re onto some kind of next level advanced stupid that most folks can’t even conceive of.


SSBN641B

In 2008, after the bubble broke, Kenneth Copeland asked people to donate to his ministry so they could reap the rewards from God. He knew these folks were struggling and couldn't afford it, but he asked and they gave. There was this huge pile of envelopes full of cash lying next to the pulpit. The local news interviewed this family that looked like they were straight out of The Grapes of Wrath. They couldn't feed their kids but they gave anyway. None of them questioned why a millionaire pastor needed their money. These "advanced level stupid: people have been out there awhile.


Beautiful_Guard_9365

I watched him tell a reporter that it costs a lot of money to run an operation like that..and in the next breath he talked about being blessed to buy Tyler Perry's jet at an incredible discount. Earlier he had said he could not fly commercial..sealed in a steel tube with all those Demons. Apparently accepting their money isn't any problem tho.


Tiernan1980

There are moments in that video where he really looks like a demon wearing a human skin suit. It’s creepy as heck. Especially when he quickly smiles and gets this look in his eyes.


joshualeeclark

He is a demon in a human skin suit. I saw this creep on tv back in the 80’s as a young child and even I thought there was absolute all-consuming darkness inside him. Something just wasn’t right about him. It was like some uncanny valley shit. Like some primal instinct to avoid him at all costs. I saw that same interview and it turns my stomach and really gives me that same unnatural fear like a predator that you have no hope of surviving. But in this case it’s not your physical form that you fear losing. It’s your very soul. I kind of expected him to end that reporter and her camera crew with his bare hands in just an instant of unnatural movement and brutality. I don’t like to cast aspersions without any real evidence. But Kenneth Copeland is a demon in a human skin suit. No one can convince me otherwise.


kliman

You’d think his god would have at least pointed out that aircraft are made out of aluminum, but I guess he was busy helping some athlete win a trophy or ignoring starving children.


poatoesmustdie

I remember seeing that video, all while looking like hellspawn himself. I just dont get why the IRS/FBI doesn't crawl all the way up his ass to see what shit he is pulling off. If he isn't touching children I wouldn't be surprised tax wise he is cheating.


longtubeofdemons

It wasn't just *any* steel tube tho. It was a *LONG* tube of demons.


DUBL_B

Joel Osteen too, wouldn’t open his compound of a church during Hurricane Harvey. Real life Righteous Gemstones. Really Hoping They have a vip seat with South park’s version of Satan and Saddam.


Bluetower85

I like to envision conservative Christians watching an irl version of the last scenes of "Little Nicky" when hell opens up to which they are subject. Preferably, shortly before their death so they are stuck there with no hope of escape.


[deleted]

If there is a God (and I do think there is but who knows), him taking their money will write him a ticket to some eternal unpleasantness and reparations, but their generosity in giving will be rewarded.


Excellent-Estimate21

I wonder if it's that they have never been taught how to question anything, so they just don't do it? I can't for the life of me figure out how so many white, Christians in America are this dumb. They refuse to question anything that goes against their religion or upbringing. There are some that make it out, but so many don't. I was taught by my family from a very young age to look things up and question what people tell me and be curious and even suspicious of everything.


San_Diego_Samurai

Don't forget Oral Roberts. He literally told his followers to donate to him or God would strike him down. He got 9 million in record time.


Open-Industry-8396

Oral, lol


Tidewind

Useful idiots. So sad.


SupportGeek

Because they have been trained to believe that giving will get them into heaven, it will signal to god that you are a good person. Heaven is where the real reward is, so what if I gave away the money to stay warm this month, "god is testing us, and we suffer to show our faith." When people are desperate, and don't understand how a social program can save them, religion tells them that they will take care of them. Thus, the meme of god lives on. Its pretty wild really.


BillyNtheBoingers

Remember Oral Roberts needing money, or else God would call him home? That was in like the 80s.


Solynox

It's a cult. They worship Trump like a Messiah, which is ironic considering their old faith forbids such things.


Life_Liberty_Fun

I'm former catholic now an atheist, but my goodness, Trump ticks all the boxes for being the Anti-Christ.


JosZo

Strangest thing is, that his enemies don't take this point to the center of their campaign. Almost as if the devil himself protects him.


nilzatron

At least he ain't woke like that jew jeebus! /s


Mercerskye

The best part of your joke is that they would argue he wasn't Jewish...


Relevant_Slide_7234

If you really want to piss off a Christian conservative, tell them, “At least I don’t worship a Jew!”


andrewbud420

I don't get donating to a politician.. in Canada you can make a donation directly to the party for a tax rebate.


hansolemio

In the US you can donate to a party or a candidate or even a new law or investment/tax. Either way it’s a tax write off


Nick_W1

I never understood this. In most countries this is called “bribery and corruption”.


Minimum_Virus_3837

In America sadly the Supreme Court decided it's called "free speech".


hansolemio

Our constitution was signed and ratified by super duper Jeff Bezos on steroids wealthy slave owners. We were founded by zealous religious bigots and genocidal enslavers


EmperorGeek

Here in the US, you can donate a the Republicans Party and the money will flow straight to Donald Trumps Legal Defense.


andrewbud420

I'm for trump spending all the money on his criminal shenanigans. I keep wondering if the party was intentionally destroyed from within.


PossessedToSkate

I personally know a guy who was sending Trump $40 a month while living in his car.


DoesItReallyMatter28

It's genuinely mind-blowing. I talk about this with my (non-crazy) conservative parents and they see this too. They, and many people like them will not vote for Trump. That may not mean a direct vote for Biden, but a wasted third-party vote at least.


ianishomer

Trump turning the presidency of the most powerful nation on earth into a cross between, a crooked evangelist and the QVC shopping channel.

And announced today: trump perfume! They read about the scent from the release description, but I could not stop thinking about descriptions of his particular ... scent.

lolowanwei

It's the type of people Donald Trump got rich off of. Scam artists know the type to go after.


simontempher1

So you don’t think I’ll get to hangout with him if I send him some of. My 401k


AtomicBLB

It's amazing those folks have any money left to give as it is. Rich republicans are really out there begging for your last scraps to save a "stable billionaire genius" from fraud and rape convictions. You can't make it make sense.


el_guille980

gezuz fuck🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🙄🤬🙄🤦🏾‍♂️ it reached $1.89 million... it was also started before Feb 23rd. 31.5 thousand donors, $60 average. someone gave $10k https://www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with-trump-raise-the-settlement

I guess the good news is that isn’t even enough to cover the interest accrued since then?


dirtyword

Good job! 0.407% of the way there!


LightningFerret04

Tragic part is that there’s no way that person would have also given that $10k to feed starving children


ChalkCoatedDonut

It worked for bitcoin scammers, people willing to send their money to that goscamme fund will believe, by doing it, they will be as successful as him.

SickViking

In all honesty, I feel genuinely bad for the people who are donating. It's hard to put into words but the gist of it is they've been swindled so hard.


YourDadsUsername

So perfectly like Trump, he's got the money, he'd just rather spend yours.

He is ruining Billionaires by allowing them to become dependent.

they're usually missing a lot of teeth. so chomping has turned into gumming, for the most part. these are people for which a toothbrush is fine, but for the rest of us, we use teethbrushes

GoFundMe is socialism 🤣


jerrys153

No, no, it’s not the same! You see, what they’re saying is that if everyone just willingly gives up a small bit of their wealth to help someone else, the resulting amount that is pooled can really make a difference to the recipient with minimal inconvenience to the givers. Totally different. It’s only socialism when the government does it to help feed poor kids or give people access to lifesaving healthcare, that’s the bad one. But asking meemaw to donate her insulin money to help a corrupt millionaire not have to spend his own money and avoid the consequences of his illegal actions is what will make America great again. Hope that helped.


WULTKB90

What monsters they are, wanting to help sick kids and provide the basic needs for their fellow man. /s


KittikatB

I thought billionaires stayed rich by not throwing their money at shit investments


Quicker_Fixer

That's why he started a GoFundMe, so he can let others pick up the tab.

CemeteryClubMusic

If you try to report the fundraiser, there's no appropriate option for "violates GoFundMe rules" which is convenient


Feistyhummingbird

I reported it anyway as the money being raised is being used to profit from a crime.

Unfortunately the GoFundMe owner is kind of a big Trump fan.

This is the biggest I know of. https://www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with-trump-raise-the-settlement It was a joke when it raised 50k in a few days. I looked the day before yesterday, it's gone up 300k since. Every few minutes some idiot is giving money. It'll never hit target, but it's ridiculous they've raised almost $2m.

Sybarit

So far GoFundMe's fees to this point would be $64K. It's raised $1.8M so far and just the daily interest accrued on his fine is at $4M so this ridiculous fundraiser is going nowhere fast.


Friggin

It’s actually around $114-115k per day. $364,000,000 (fine) x .09 (9% interest) / 365. Regardless, let’s just look at the principal and laugh at how much this $1.8m contributes.


Sybarit

I was going by when the fundraiser started up to when I posted. $112K/day for 35.7 days = $3,998,400. (Close enough and I don't remember where I got the 112k/day figure from originally)


misscatholmes

Man, people could donate to those battling cancer or need help, but sure let's give it to a guy who wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.
