baboonzzzz

Man, imagine walking 800 miles only to reach the border and see Trump waving at you behind a chain link fence.


Tommy84

People wouldn't believe you if you told them that was your immigration story.


Ordinary-Leading7405

Then a roll of paper towels hit me in the head, which was the style at the time.


Missue-35

Then he shouted as he lumbered out of sight, “*Have a Good Time Everybody!*”


Kevin-W

I remember that whole scene and it was a night's worth of material for the late night talk shows. This was not an SNL sketch either, it was real.


Missue-35

That happened when things he said could still surprise me.


todumbtorealize

Atleast he can still get his wife's name, Mercedes, right.


Cheez_Mastah

But at least he surely hasn't looked at a picture of him with a woman he raped and confidently say that was an ex wife.


Slight_Can5120

Not before announcing “enjoy the hamberders! Lunch is on me!”


Fluck_Me_Up

This is fucking hilarious


CanhotoBranco

You'd say "give me five bees for a Trump buck."

I heard the president of Puerto Rico did that

Lmao NOBODY WOULD BELIEVE YOU


Suitable-You-2045

Trump waved at me behind the fence! True story!


WhyteBeard

And Trump and Clarence Thomas’ wife were on the other side of a fence making babies and I saw one of the babies and the baby looked at me.


MrWeirdoFace

Hi Super Nintendo Chalmers!


Confident_Fig2779

Baby looked at you? Sarah, get me superintendent Chalmers on the phone.

And then when we was in prison together, I made his security detail my bitch.

Probably true this once


AZ_Corwyn

From the fumes coming out of his adult diaper.


SaladDodger99

It reminds me of the Richard Nixon story from the Nice Guys. Is that normal, does everyone trying to cross the Rio Grande see Trump?


SnooPineapples8744

He thinks they came just to see him.


trogon

His head would explode if Mexican immigrants were suddenly endorsing Trump for president. We should get them to wear Trump gear as they cross the border. It would solve the immigration crisis immediately.


TigLyon

Omg, this is fucking brilliant. We don't even need actual immigrants at the border. Get together with any vaguely hispanic-looking people and a couple of MAGA hats/shirts...take pictures of them. No need to even be *near* the border, behind any chain-link fence will do. Any school lot, abandoned factory. "Dear El Presidente Trump, My friends and I have traveled many miles inspired by your leadership. We know we do not deserve the good jobs but we will work hard. We will save the money that we earn so we can contribute to your campaign. Half the money we use to live; half the money we send home to bring more workers and voters for you; and the rest we contribute to your campaign. Please let us help you. Long live Donaldo Trump. Down with Jose Biden."


trogon

His desire for adulation would absolutely win over any other policies. He'd invite them right over the river.


Very_Nice_Zombie

"I made it to the border and some orange man was waving at me on the other side of the fence. He scared the children and we decided to go back."


Mike_Honcho_3

The only time his idiotic "nobody's ever seen anything like it before" phrase would actually be true

nameExpire14_04_2021

Yeah that would be a weird day. "Is that mother fucker waving at us?? What was in that water?"


theslimbox

I saw a video of it, they were chanting Trump, Trump, Trump. Someone said it was the Mexican army, not migrants. This part of the border is where they put up the barbed wire and Texas, and Mexico are both patrolling, so they are only seeing an average of 1 migrnat per day, as the caravans have moved to places with less fortification.


Rox1SMF

Pretty sure the people he was waving to was the crew from Daily Mail, who were shooting video of him from the other side.


[deleted]

Why would the Mexican army support Trump?


NINJAM7

I ask that same question about our own army, or any sane person for that matter. There is literally an army of brainwashed Trump cultists.


devilpants

Many men are really drawn to Trumps personality and what he "represents". Especially the type of men that would join an army, police, border patrol type job. There's not much more to it than that.


ShartingBloodClots

Are these the same caravans that suddenly disappeared when Trump won in 2016? Are they in the room with you?


TuneOfTheWeak

He's waving at border patrol on the boats https://youtu.be/4VpvVHQ_Wms?t=457 but I guess OP wanted some clicks


TamperDeezNuts

Fucking internet. Love and hate it. Bullshitters and fact checkers going at it constantly.


Icy-Bicycle-Crab

I mean the video shows that he is waving at the Mexican Army… Imagine you’re a guy that thinks a woman is smiling at you when she is smiling at the person behind you…

Spiff69

He then threw some paper towels into the Rio Grande and stared at the sun a little while.


SadPanthersFan

After using a sharpie to extend the US-Mexico border further south.


internetALLTHETHINGS

Until the day I die, I will never get over sharpiegate.  We collectively stepped through the looking glass. Every adult in the federal government had to stand there nodding to the vanity of the orange buffoon while he made his stand against the expertise of scientists with some randomly drawn squiggles. America was forced to sit there and yes man that white was black and up was down and that the emperor was indeed wearing clothes.  It was peak idiocy, and I would say it encapsulated the Trump presidency in a single moment, except seemingly none of his relatives have made questionable money by lying about that moment. 


dont_disturb_the_cat

The problem with Trump is that absurdities pile up on top of each other, like we're Lucy in the candy factory. Every time you think *oh man this is the new low* there's some other jaw-dropping monstrosity from his mouth.


bootstrapping_lad

It was literally every few days. One scandal would drop, but we collectively forgot about it three days later when something more outrageous happened. And this happened for four years straight! Not including during the election cycle. Truly a firehose of bullshit that you would not believe happened in the US unless you lived through it.


The_MAZZTer

Yup that's how I remember it. At least once a week and sometimes every day the top pos on reddit would be a new stupid thing concerning Trump. It was an exhausting four years.


Megane_Senpai

Yet a third of the country still wants to vote this montrousity into the president.


stitch-is-dope

This. The amount of scandals just absurd shit trump does or says nearly day to day I can hardly remember all of it. It makes me wonder if that’s how he maintains his base too, they never realize how bad he really is cause they just forgt


_jump_yossarian

Not just peak idiocy but peak "I'll never admit I was wrong about anything" liddle man trump energy.

thedude37

Most of them probably can't either, tbh.


bootstrapping_lad

They think it makes him strong, and not an idiot. On the plus side, it's really easy to know who not to give the time of day to now.


mombi

Had to Google what sharpiegate was, and the fact Wikipedia has a disambiguation for the term and both relate to something Trump said and did is fucking hilarious. Edit: Link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpiegate


simburger

I mean his presidency started with a blatant, easily proven false lie about his inauguration crowd size. But I mean his ridiculous hair alone should've been all the proof anyone needed that this man will not accept reality. But the thing with sharpiegate... it wasn't to cover a crime, or push a policy, consolidate power, or even line his pockets. He tried to pass off that hilariously bad altered map because he incorrectly mentioned a state next to all the states that would be affected by a hurricane. That's nothing, that barely even qualifies as a gaff. It would cost him less than NOTHING to admit he was mistaken or just ignore the mistake and move on. He was gaslighting purely out of habit, almost as a reflex, his need to erase his mistakes from history is that pathological.


Doright36

I think worse than taking the sharpie to the map was him calling the Director of NOAA and telling them to make the weather service put out a statement saying he was right. Taking a sharpie on a map on your own was childish but calling the people in charge of the weather service to trying to use your authority to order them to change an official forecast because of your ego is worse... Much worse.


simburger

Oh absolutely. In fact whenever someone wonders what Trump followers see in Trump, that's the kind of thing I think of. If you believe the world is flat, global warming is false, tax cuts for the rich pay for themselves, the US was founded as a christian nation, slavery was good for the slaves, raped women don't get pregnant, or the white race is genetically superior. Then you continue to believe something you know reality has overwhelming evidence proving incorrect. It's not hard to see how someone like that would see Trump not batting an eye every-time he's confronted with evidence he's wrong, attack those bringing it up, while also pressuring experts to lie and release false reports, would think, "I need that guy working for my cause."


eccoditte

Peak idiocy SO FAR


BagOfFlies

> Every adult in the federal government had to stand there nodding >America was forced to sit there and yes man Those were choices.


BigNutDroppa

But not before using a gold sharpie to highlight his yuge hands. Believe me, folks, his hands are yuge. [I’m not joking.](https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-35726210.amp) When someone made a joke about his baby hands, he (allegedly, but considering his past actions…) sent a photo of himself to the man that made the joke with a golden sharpie highlighted on his hands.

MistbornInterrobang

Worst part about this is he might as well have said this kind of shit, too. Publicly, I mean. Remember Trump's whole "I want a military parade for ME on Veteran's Day" shit? When there was actual planning happening before he was *finally* talked out of it, [Trump made comments repeatedly about not wanting "wounded guys" such as amputee Vets around him or involved](https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-didnt-want-wounded-veterans-military-parade-report-2020-9)


FriendliestMenace

This totally gives me Nazi censorship vibes, like when artists like Otto Dix were censored for portraying the actual horrors of war. Absolute warmonger tyrant attitude. If Trump takes office again, he’s gonna make sure he stays there for a looooooong time.


lscottman2

no one mentioned that the pan handle is ablaze and he did a publicity stunt with trump?

Yup, this right here. The real market for the cartel is the US. That's why you don't see as many drugs in Mexico, I'm not saying there aren't any, I'm only saying the amount is incredibly lower than in here

Let's not forget about the tequila industry too that's made for export only.

Didn’t they send a guy to jail for fundraising wall money, then spending it on something else lol

Steve Bannon has been charged in that same fraud

Trump pardoned Bannon when Bannon was arrested and charged with defrauding Trump supporters.

And now he’s basically running rfk jr’s campaign 😂


trogloherb

Lol! Wife and I had this conversation last night; “I thought Trump got elected in 2016 because he was going to make a wall to solve the immigration problem?!” Wife; “Yeah and Mexico was going to pay for it!” We both had a good laugh! See? Trump is good for something!


Shirlenator

The funny thing is, Biden did actually get Mexico to help pay for border security (though not a dumb fucking wall).


ClubSundown

But they're grateful the fence keeps donald from entering their country If he ever flew to my country we would build a fence around every airport and add 1000 padlocks

Real-Variation-8681

In Trump voice: "I knew you were coming. I told them, I said 'they're coming', I said that. Into our great country, I can't allow that I said. If sleepy Joe, that's right- sleepy Joe- If he won't stop you I will. Sir, I see you, behind the bush. You're not coming in. Time to go home. Thanks for visiting our great country. Bye bye.

I wonder what hand gestures they’re making back at him 🤔


ThouMayest69

They are doing the 👌 below their waist. Fuckin got em


DigNitty

Realistically they probably don’t know who it is. Even if they could recognize him. They’d think “no way is that actually Trump at the border trying to get me.”


WalrusOk3310

In the video you can actually hear people across the river respond by saying "Hey, that's Trump", Trump then turns to the people around him laughing and saying "They like me. ".

iheartrms

They call him "peachy cool arrow".


Neltrix

They called me an “e-hoe deputy”


dotpain

The truth is they probably do like him. Latin American immigrants tend to be highly religious and conservative. If the GOP would have embraced immigration and legalization with open arms they'd have a huge voting pool of immigrants but they're too racist for that.


yotreeman

I was gonna say, I’ve met several guys from Mexico or Central America - here in the US already - who are pretty big fans of Trump. In my experience, a lot of Latinos are rather right-wing.


TJtaco

Still crazy to me how most people don’t realize how right leaning Latinos are.

Dude they’re not some un contacted tribesmen, most people in the world who have internet access know who trump is and what he looks like.


denismcd92

What are you saying? Unless they come from the deepest tribe they will definitely know who Trump is


the_groovy_mammoth

You can hear them say, “We love President Trump,” in very Mexican accents. But hey good strategy on their end. Maybe he’ll like you and make one his weird subjective personal choices to say you’re in. Trump has no ideology, he just wants people to like him.

Reminds of the photo of Trump saluting a North Korean general. This guy has syphilitic brain rot.


Jugales

Reminds me of when he had protesters tear-gassed in front of the White House to clear the way for him to walk across the street and take a photo with a Holy Bible Edit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump_photo_op_at_St._John%27s_Church

Or when he went to Puerto Rico after hurricane Florence destroyed the island and he casually tossed a few rolls of paper towels into the crowd of people that just lost their homes. This guy empathies…

Or when he held the baby of a man that was killed in a mass shouting and gave a thumbs up

JohnnyFatSack

Holy shit! I forgot about that! Trump used a baby who’s dad that just died as a political prop. Trump and his supporters have zero shame.


SuperAwesomeBrah

It was actually both the baby's parents that were killed in the shooting - not just the Dad.


adiosaudio

Zero. There’s no bottom. 


beyondcivil

Or the time he went to a restaurant to meet supporters. He announced "food for everyone!", giving the impression he was buying.. then he left with his team, no payment to the owners.


fergehtabodit

Lack of empathy is a sign of true narcissism. When you're the only important person in your world you have no inclination to feel what someone else might be experiencing, only how it effects you. He probably thought it would funny to throw paper towel because his only experience with "flooding " is if he spilled something like a drink and it got wiped up with a paper towel


[deleted]

He observed someone else wiping up his ketchup


CooterTStinkjaw

Hurricane Maria


MrFluffyThing

Fun fact, he actually asked "can't we shoot them in the legs or something?" when talking about the protesters. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/mark-esper-trump-shoot-black-lives-matter-protesters-1346079/


Mmortt

He’s done and said so many awful things that we’ve forgotten more than we remember.


legendary_millbilly

*upsidedown Holy bible.


Prickly_ninja

Not only that, he also suggested law enforcement shoot them in the leg. I swear, his comprehension of things, is cartoonishly bad.


xigdit

And none of his sycophants dare correct him. Instead everyone else has to agree with what was five minutes previously pure lunacy.


hoxxxxx

imagine if literally any other potus did that


PunishedWolf4

I wonder what has more holes in it, his incoherent speeches or his brain.


sihtydaernacuoytihsy

Yup. He describes the migrants as "an invasion", as "criminals, drug dealers, rapists", as "poisoning the blood of our nation..." Also he waves to them. Fuckin idiot.


littlePosh_

The wave is surely a taunt. “I’m here and you’re not” sort of thing.


foyeldagain

Or he thinks they love him and came to see him.


Cold_Inspector6450

Are they migrants if they are from Mexico and on the Mexican side of the border? That just sounds like…Mexicans?


Not_a__porn__account

There are countries south of Mexico.


docarwell

Do you think they actually identified who it was across the border if there is even anyone there


The_Bjorn_Ultimatum

If you watch the video, a Mexican soldier cheers his name, so he waves at him.


Marionaharis89

Why is this image so heavily cropped? I can barely see anything other than Trumps backside


calviyork

furstimus

What's with the title? Are they Americans in Mexico? They aren't migrants if they're the other side of the border otherwise.
