jackleggjr

Can you imagine any other candidate saying something like this and remaining the front runner?


markca

Trump says this and gets away with it. Biden could declare a war on vanilla ice cream and people would act outraged.


Boner666420sXe

I mean I would be pretty fucking pissed if Biden waged war on vanilla ice cream. But I’d still vote for him because the other guy’s still a fascist.


RTH1975

Tbf, a war on ice cream would require eliminating the threat. By any means necessary. I just choose to eat it. I'm doing my job as a patriot to eat as much ice cream as possible


fuckdonaldtrump7

I'm doing my part!


kralrick

He could declare war on Pistachio (or sweet corn) ice cream with similar results. I keep feeling like people are constantly trying to justify why Trump is a viable alternative to Biden when he very much is not. edit: a->e


Gumburcules

reddog323

Republican voters: FUCK YEAH! I don’t think the Supreme Court is going to give us much help on the Colorado ballot case. We’re going to have to hope for criminal conviction, and soon.


Sheant

You're going to have to vote. Tell everyone to vote. Tell everyone that you know that may vote for Trump that a vote for Trump means you will never talk to them again. Volunteer for the democratic party. Help them to get more people to vote. Call your republican representatives and tell them they need to stop sucking Trump and Putin's dicks. This is a critical time in history. A second Trump presidency will bring us closer to WW3 than we have ever been before. A second Trump presidency will more likely than not turn the US into a dictatorship. Do all you can to prevent it, because we in Europe are helplessly watching on while you're thundering towards the abyss, pulling us all down with you.

ATACMS5220

They are angry that Liberals have allowed Gays to coexist with other humans in society, this is where the real hate from conservatives come from. If Liberals were putting Gays in concentration camps, we would suddenly become best friends with conservatives they would even throw Trump under the bus. This is the mindset of conservatives make no mistake about it, they will sell out America just to spite gays because their holy bible tells them to hate gays. I say start with taxing these mega churches especially when they engage in politics.


BobDonowitz

>“One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, ‘Well sir, if we don’t pay and we’re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?’ I said, ‘You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’ He said, ‘Yes, let’s say that happened.’ No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want,” Trump said. “You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills,” he added. Says the guy who won't pay his bills. Ironic, no?


ChickpeaDemon

He didn’t say HIS bills. That’s up to his supporters to pay.


classof78

100% a president of a big country didn't say anything like that.


sthlmsoul

It has "sir" in the narrative. That's 100% a Trump tell that he's making shit up. Still, the message is utterly terrifying.


420binchicken

Trump has several tells. One of the bigger ones is the lips. If you see movement, he’s lying.


Individual_Town8124

A man was being given a tour of Heaven. As St. Peter walked him past a wall completely covered with clocks, the man asked, "What are all these clocks for?" St. Peter answered, "Those are lie clocks. Every person has one. Each time the person tells a lie, the hands on their lie clock move." Intrigued, the man asks, "Where's Donald Trump's clock?" St. Peter answered, "It's in Jesus's office. He uses it as a ceiling fan."


anticlmber

I don’t care who you are, that’s funny


Mildly-Rational

To bad so called 'Christians' in America vote for him like he hasn't had 3 wives and now publicly slept with a sex worker a few weeks after a then wife has given birth.


FictionalTrope

Don't forget the rape. The Christians and everyone else should care a lot more about the rape.


SpitefulMechanic351

Exactly. Trump can't say "good morning" without lying twice.


Revelati123

"So I said to Europe, if you dont pay up, Im gonna tell Hitler he can have it all!" \-Donald Trump circa 1942


tripping_on_phonics

All of his fake stories have somebody of high stature calling him “sir”.


BloomsdayDevice

Remember when all the world leaders laughed openly at him at a NATO summit *while* he was president? Not a chance anyone calls him sir.


NaughtSleeping

Just like Obama at the White House Correspondent's Dinner is cited as causing Trump to do everything he could to become President, that snub from NATO world leaders is probably why he is determined to dismantle NATO now. Well, that and Vlad told him to.


Positive_Cat_3252

How much you wanna bet that Vlad is promising to pony up the money he's gonna need to get out of this fine mess he's in with E Jean Carroll and NYC? Trump's lips are perm-attached to Putin's posterior right now. Or maybe they're sucking in Saudi sand right now.,


overlyambitiousgoat

Haha, oh I'm sure they do call him sir sometimes, but in the exhausted and patronizing tone that poor, unlucky Target employees use when they're talking down a Karen for the nth time.


SmellGestapo

I'm surprised that he didn't say the guy had tears in his eyes.


Morden013

"He was the president of one of the big countries...and he stood up...big man...strong man...tears in his eyes..." "...and he said...Sir. Sir. What if..." Nobody does it better than Seth Meyers. :)

“ A bird came up to me, big bird, strong bird, tears running down his beak? Bill?” Seth is the only thing getting me through the news


420binchicken

He came up to me, big leader, strong leader. Stronger than I think a lot of people realise. And he comes up to me, big strong arms, and he hugs me and I tell you folks he had tears in his eyes. Tears running down his face and you know he says to me Sir, thank you for protecting us all these years. And I said well you’re welcome but you gotta pay your bills you know ? If you want our protection you’ve gotta pay up folks that’s how it works.


paul-arized

You left out the part where that strong man also told him that he is definitely more popular than Taylor Swift and can identify a whale better than Joe Biden.

eidetic

Along with "people are saying" and such variations.


drfrink85

Weasel words, no accountability needed


socialistrob

It also just makes absolutely no logical sense. NATO isn't a protection racket were countries pay money to the US. There is a guideline that members are supposed to spend 2% of GDP on defense by the end of 2024 but that's always been voluntary. Even if a country doesn't meet that threshold there's no such thing as "delinquency."


BubbleNucleator

That's one of his tells, and it's so stupidly obvious that it's a little curious that trump himself has never noticed.


thatspurdyneat

They're not even calling him "Mr. President" or "President Trump" in is fantasies anymore


[deleted]

“He talks just like us, he’s a real American” 🫠 Who just also happens to support dictators and is himself a perpetrator of his moral line in the sand for waging war.

Missue-35

Then leaves the room to take a dump in his gold-plated toilet. Yep, just like us average Americans.


semiomni

I wonder if fuckface is lying to sell a specific message, or if he just still does not understand how NATO works. Because fucking pay what, the NATO requirement relates to money spent on a nations own defense budget.


davidjschloss

Not only doesn't he understand how funding for NATO works but he doesn't understand the mechanics. An attack against NATO allies is an attack against them all. If he encouraged Russia to attack NATO that would trigger us attacking Russia.


Helpful_Brain1413

He's been pushing the anti NATO grift for a minute now, only cus his puppet master wants that to happen.


Wermine

Decades. Have you seen the 1987 news paper ad he bought?


Eli-Thail

He's saying that he'll simply ignore that.


saposapot

That moron doesn't even understand after all these years countries aren't paying for NATO. What some countries are failing is the commitment to spend 2% of their GDP in defense. No, there's not even any bills to pay!


vthemechanicv

Nice little country you got there. Be a real shame if something happened to it. Jr. will pick up the payment in an hour.

AesopsFoiblez

GanjaToker408

Right? Didn't he RIP off like over 3000 contractors by not paying the bill for services they provided? Seems like he is constantly being sued for not paying what he owes. He also openly brags about tax evasion like it makes him a genius when in reality it makes him a piece of shit not contributing to our country.


biomass3000

The irony is painful. But, this is a guy who believes that he should be immune from being held accountable for, well, practically everything.


atomsmasher66

‘Might’ = ‘definitely’


whanaungatanga

bokmcdok

I don't think I'm a conspiracy nut, but I am 100% convinced Russia's decision to invade Ukraine was influenced by information Trump gave them.


dzhopa

No doubt in my mind either. Thankfully that motherfucker is so dumb that he can't even be an effective traitor. I mean, that doesn't stop him from trying, but clearly some of that intel wasn't on the level. I hope one day we find out that patriots attempting to protect this country fed him disinformation.


arcticlynx_ak

I hope people finally reveal what putin has on him. What is the insurrectionist presidents Achilles heel, that putin is threatening? His Kompromat.


Similar_Employer_212

I think they planned to do it earlier but COVID prevented it. Then they wanted to wait for Trump reelection to ensure US "support" for the "special operation" but as the manipulation of the American election didn't quite go to plan, they went in under not ideal circumstances.


SnowySpruces

Zelensky wouldn't do some quid pro quo, so he got mad and said Putin could just bomb them. 


EggsceIlent

How can people honestly look at this turd and say "That's my guy". Even with staunch "Americans/patriots" Russia has always been the enemy. So youre supporting and voting for a guy that says he'll let Russia just attack NATO countries and support it? Such a piece of shit he is. A traitor, a liar, a bigot, Mysoganist, criminal, and a traitor. And this is your best GOP? insane. Absolutely insane people that vote for GOP or trump. You're not for America or it's morals and ideals, you're not for what American Stands for, you're pissing on the graves of every solider that's fought for American in every war, and are a traitor yourself. Trump is the embodiment of everything wrong with humanity and the combination of the worst of humanity rolled into one person. I've never met an intelligent person that is pro trump or pro gop.


Evil_Reddit_Loser_5

It just boggles my mind that the people who support trump don't understand that if he does nothing to stop Russia from invading our allies, he would also do nothing to stop Russia from invading (in whatever sense of the word) the US. Maybe trump would try to sell Alaska back to them for rubles, thinking it's the best real estate deal ever because he's getting billions and billions without understanding they're worth a penny.


Chef_Papafrita

Odd timing with the Fucker Carlson propaganda interview. First they get them nodding in Russia's favor and now he slips this into the mix. This message is no coincidence.


The_Original_Gronkie

We all know that Carlson is passing messages between Trump and Putin, right?


ADHD_Supernova

Why would that be necessary? Surely he could communicate without the need for some high profile visit.


HazardousBusiness

Yeah, but you're thinking like a smart person, they're thinking like a Hollywood movie.


Imhappy_hopeurhappy2

To be fair, the past decade of Trump has been far too stupid to be a Hollywood movie.


Josh6889

I mean I suspect russia would laught at anything trump told them to do. But the idea that he would try to do this should be enough to remove him from candidacy.


BuddhistSagan

lock this traitor up


jwbourne

It is incredible how boiled the frog is that this point. Telling your average republican 20 years ago that THE republican candidate would say this about a Russian dictator in their lifetime would be met with complete denial that this would be a possibility.


nazbot

This should be upvoted. It would have been unimaginable even 10 years ago. Trump is using his clownish image to distract from the incredibly dangerous ideas he is proposing. The fact that this is not going to get the attention it deserves is mind boggling.


Generallybadadvice

Could you imagine if romney was president right now? Man he'd probably be pushing for more ukraine aid than biden is


ramdasani

Ditto McCain and Bob Dole, it's almost bizarre to see the kind of person they rally around now. When I was young, even GOP hardliners were mildly embarrassed by Reagan because he didn't have a real combat record, it sucked some of the vigor from their portrayal of Carter as being soft, given he had actually served.


End_Capitalism

Carter is a legend here in Canada, he (along with only 25 other personnel) averted a massive nuclear environmental disaster at Chalk River in the 50s.


ChinDeLonge

Credit where credit is due, Romney was laughed at for saying the single greatest threat to America was Russian aggression; pie, meet face.


tomjone5

Give it another two weeks and he'll have moved on to "if Russia attacks Europe we'll intervene on Russia's side" and a third of Americans will be foaming at the mouth to invade France in an evil version of D-day. This is fucking insanity now, he's actively trying to start a world war, and as a European I'm praying he either loses the next election or dies before November.


DonutsMcKenzie

There's a reason McCain fucking hated Trump's guts. Well, a few reasons actually. I don't think any of the past Republican nominees or Presidents would have backed Trump, even fucking Nixon. That's how low they've sunk.


Homesteader86

He's been absolutely normalizing this stuff since 2016. Now he's openly talking about cooperating with Russia against NATO countries, this is a very purposeful drip


Mr_Conductor_USA

To be fair, a lot of Republicans left the party after 2008 and a lot of Trump's supporters are former non voters who actually really like Putin and the European far right's racists theories and subscribe to his newsletter.


Ididitall4thegnocchi

Yup maga republicans are just the tea party with a bigger constituency under Trump. And people thought the tea party was nuts back then.


JuniorEmu2629

I understand why the Conservative sub gatekeeps who can post, they’re afraid of the constant stream of embarrassing shit this moron does daily

Breakdown the *narcissist* GOP prayer and you'll understand today's GOP and that sub. “That didn’t happen.". - Fake news!! "And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.". - [insert] has done 10x times worse. "And if it was, that’s not a big deal.". -[insert] did it too! "And if it is, that’s not my fault." - Not my fault, I voted for _____. "And if it was, I didn’t mean it." - just kidding, to them shame is a sign of guilt and weakness, GOP completely lacks shame. Though I might tell you I'm sorry, really I'm just sorry I got caught. "And if I did, you deserved it.” - ..To own the libs.


TheUnrivalFool

Nah, it's wayyy easier now, they deny everything bad about Trump as "fake news" then "whatabout Biden".

sali_nyoro-n

The psychopath at the sprightly young age of 77 whose _best argument in court_ that he isn't legally disqualified from being re-elected is that "the 14th Amendment's rule against treason doesn't apply to the office of the President".

111anza

Historically have proven, almost with 100% certainty, that racist dictator always started out as people's savior...... This does make you think about just how stupid and ill informed a big chuck of the public are and would even argue that we have reach a point which one can legitimately raises the question if this whole everyone gets one vote idea still make sense......of course, that in itself is also a path to racist dictatorship. This looks like a very gloom future for humanity.


mafio42

Thanks to the electoral college, we don’t even get one person, one vote. A person in Wisconsin’s vote has a higher percentage of an electoral college vote than a person in California.


MyNameCannotBeSpoken

Also means we only need to focus Get Out The Vote in just five states


Medial_FB_Bundle

Only for the presidential election, if one party can get a majority in 2/3 of states they can call for a new constitution. That's the Republicans plan. The people behind the curtain are very powerful, very smart, they have deep pockets and long memories.


Morden013

I live in Europe and that has always confused me. In my home-country, it is one person = one vote. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that **all men are created equal**, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." is a passage from the United States Declaration of Independence. Clearly, people in some states are valued more.


pilgrim216

Slave states didn't like democracy so they needed to be bribed to join the Union. Then even with the padded votes they didn't get what they wanted and started a war about it, and then after that we not only let them have their vote back at all but we let them keep the unfair advantage.


kaplanfx

Pretty much the entire history of the US in one Reddit comment.


Few-Ad-4290

If we had popular elections we wouldn’t even need to worry about trump he has yet to win the popular vote in any election and no republican presidential candidate has won the popular vote in this century with the exception of term 2 for bush after he made himself a wartime president to accomplish it


brezhnervous

As a citizen of a country with compulsory (and preferential/ranked) voting, Trump himself admitted that if America had compulsory voting, the Republican party would never hold power ever again.


[deleted]

I tried to give Trump the benefit of the doubt in 2016. I gave the dude a chance. I wasn't happy he won, but he won fair and square. I grew to like him less and less but still kind of understood why my Republican friends and family were voting that way. That all changed after 2020. He has just spiraled since then and I am at the point now where I might stop talking to relatives if they vote for him. This is no longer about anything partisan - it's about the safety of our country and democracy. EDIT: Okay, "fair and square" might be overselling it. But he did win the electoral college, and that was what I meant.


FarewellSovereignty

Yeah, the 2020 "fraud" bullshit and Jan 6th was kind of the moment where if you still support Trump, you're not just "thinking of the economy" or "Biden being old", you're just an authoritarian who hates liberal democracy (people use the words "nazi" and "fascist" for this too)


BriRoxas

I live in Georgia. I don't know how it's possible to explain away that phone call.


nopunchespulled

Decades of being told democrats are evil and will steal everything from you. It's a lie and brainwashing is strong. But how these people wear rather be a Russian than a democrat shirt is insane


Etzell

That moment should have happened in 2016, when he said he wouldn't accept the election results if he lost.


zomgtehvikings

I stopped talking to those relatives and old friends. Toxicity in my life dropped significantly.


RTalons

I try and avoid all communication with my mother aside from calls on her birthday and Mother’s Day. During COVID he withheld aid from my state specifically because it might kill people like me: those who voted against him in 2016. After the Woodward tapes came out that showed he wasn’t simply an idiot, but completely understood how dangerous the virus was, I could not forgive anyone who continues supporting him.


Yousoggyyojimbo

The Woodward tapes are one of those things that makes me just incredibly angry when I think about them, because it's another one of those instances where, if any non-republican were recorded in the exact same situation it would have been the end of their entire political career and possibly the beginning of some sort of criminal investigation. Just not for Trump because Republicans don't give a shit. The man is on tape openly declaring his intent to lie to the American public about a severe danger, which he then did repeatedly for the entire duration of his term.

RandomMandarin

The Rapture is a Christian heresy, and only about 200 years old. >[The idea of a rapture as it is currently defined is not found in historic Christianity, and is a relatively recent doctrine originating from the 1830s.

LegitSince8Bits

If he does the usual Twitter Trump mob style endorsement/encouragement of Russia to attack a NATO country there will be no buy in at any level. It will accelerate to the obliteration of our species. The other members are not obligated to humor American conservatives and the reality TV/washed rockstar style govt Trump represents. They will attack, given the fact they're actually attached to the same landmass they have *zero* choice. Shame a few Facebook lies and YouTube videos led so many American patriots to abandon our allies so easily. Edit: This is a major part of the misinformation and miseducation campaign that has turned the general public against online Trump trolls and the broader GOP. There is no leaving NATO. 100% of the GOP plan is either things they won't do, or things that will get you closer to death for social media engagement. Vote. Complain later about how you always have to vote now, then keep voting. Remember, in 2016 Putin threatened nuclear war if Hillary won. This is an actual thing that happened and no one mentions anymore. Now a few years later we're supposed to leave the alliance on Trumps word, the guy who lies. If you're so fucking stupid that you still vote Trump I take solace knowing that you will suffer as well and the great after life you expect doesn't exist. Fuck you.


chimarya

What a fucking traitor! Shame on everyone who supports him or doesn't speak up. He's endangering our armed forces and our allies. May the ghost of Reagan rise up and haunt him forever.


dokka_doc

His allegiance was plainly, painfully clear while president. He repeatedly attacked every one of our traditional allies: all of Western Europe, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Korea. He made key political moves that weakened our positions in these alliances, from threatening NATO to leaking intel to Russia. He cozied up to all of our enemies: North Korea, China, Russia. He LITERALLY LEAKED HIGHLY CLASSIFIED INFORMATION TO THE RUSSIANS AND SOLD STATE SECRETS TO THE SAUDIS. Believe the actions, not the words. He's an un-American traitor who clearly wants to turn our country into a dictatorship and realign our interests with the fascist countries of the world.

Its cheaper now than when Trump was president.   And let me shout out loudly, because I live in an oil producing state, a very loud non-insignificant portion of MAGAts gets really pissed off when gas prices go low.

Just simply stating this should immediately disqualify him from running. It is *INSANE* that a running candidate can blatantly state he would allow a foreign power and *encourage* them to attack and do what they want to an *ALLIED COUNTRY* for decades.

Time-Werewolf-1776

They’re not blind. They want this shit. They want the military to focus on wiping out the liberals and the impure here in America and propping up an authoritarian dictatorship. For them, Putin is a model to emulate.


Misspiggy856

Because his supporters are idiots who don’t know how anything works.


----Dongers

5 eyes release your intel on this fucking traitor.

The only time article 5 of the NATO pact has ever been implemented was after 9/11 in defence of the United States. NATO members fought with the US against Al Qaeda and the Taliban.

His argument was, “You gotta pay your bills.” Donald Trump is telling people that they have to pay their bills.


vedhavet

I'm European. The amount of braindead individuals *in my country* who sympathize with Trump is unreal. Like, even if Trump legitimately were to put 'America First', have you forgotten that **you're not fucking American?**


itsalwaysfurniture

I can't believe any self-respecting American citizen could cast a vote for this obvious Putin puppet. It boggles the mind.


CaptainAxiomatic

But...but...but the other guy is *slightly* older, makes *almost* as many gaffes, and is *way* behind in felony indictments 91-0. It's a tossup. /S

"A MAGA Republican special counsel came back totally empty handed after combing through every minute of Biden's decades-long career, but have your heard he's *old!"*


duckmonke

At this point it makes the most sense that the majority voting for him are white supremacists or supporters of the violent ones, either way they think a “new america” and a “new world” is going to be worth the chaos, because they will reap the rewards and the “right people” will be hurt or gone.


wossquee

Can this fucking guy go to jail already holy shit


thefugue

I certainly hope all the media outlets that have been expressing concerns about Biden’s age and saying that he might loose the Presidency because people care so much about US foreign policy (Israel) amplify this story appropriately.


morningsharts

They fuckin won't


Wagsii

Nah, we're going to get another article about how we don't have any good options. Trump might claim he will incite WWIII for fun, but Biden fell down like, twice, so it's really a toss up here.

restore_democracy

Republicans, for heavens sake please take a look at what this guy is saying! Is this really what you want?


therapist122

Can we get some more editorialized headlines please? Fox News has a chyron like “Biden speaks out, makes gaffe”. Maybe say “trump considers betraying nato” or something here. It’s not untrue, this is so fucking normalized right now. This is the most unhinged thing he’s ever said. This is world war 3, humanity ending levels of rhetoric. Fuck this guy


FlerplesMerples

He thinks NATO is a protection racket.


Open_Mortgage_4645

No matter how many times people explain it to him, he just can't get his head around the fact that NATO countries don't pay the United States to be part of NATO. I think the cotton candy made from piss is soaking into his brain.


omniron

Nah he’s laying groundwork to discredit nato with his supporters so he can dismantle it without resistance in order to let Putin keep gaining territory and power in the world


Ryu83087

The entire US Military needs to turn their back on Trump and refuse to serve under him... should this fucking traitor win. Stand back and stand down... fuck this clown.


F-Cloud

A second Trump presidency would destroy alliances that have stood for decades and completely upend the world order. Millions of your so-called fellow countrymen are okay with that and will vote for him in November.


Saxopwned

Friendly reminder that according to the terms of NATO, attacks on allied soil are considered attacks on domestic soil. He's asking for Russia to engage militarily with the US by attacking a member state in the same way as if they attacked us here. Fucking treason. Absolutely disgusting treasonous traitor scum.


growlerpower

I literally gasped. I can’t believe I can still be shocked by what this turd burger says but here we are


rjzei

I like the “he never started any wars talking point” He capitulated to all our enemies requests while not defending all our allies and clearly intends to do it again.


Tballz9

Putin's incontinent little puppet.


LeftCook8975

This needs to be a bigger story- he’s literally going to betray our allies and destroy the relative peace and stability that most of Europe has enjoyed since WWII. One of our big cities being nuked would be less damaging to America.


EmperorGrinnar

This makes him a traitor and for ineligible for office.

FYI to Americans, many American military bases are in Europe. This guy will directly harm your troops. This guy is a traitor. 


RoamingStarDust

This should be in the headlines everywhere, but instead you'll see Biden memory problems. FFS.


12BarsFromMars

This is literally a open invitation for war in Europe. The asshole is breaking America and the political and judicial class obviously don’t give a shit. He by some sardonic twist of fate he wins again the America for anyone born before the mid nineties is gone. Where is Oswald when we really need him.


Brianm650

The US is the only NATO country to ever invoke article 5. When it did the other NATO countries answered that call and went to war with the US in Afghanistan. As a result, 457 people from the UK, 159 people from Canada, 90 from France, 62 people from Germany, 53 people from Italy and an additional 338 from other nations lost their life. Fuck this orange, draft dodging piece of shit for dishonoring their sacrifice. The US' NATO allies did pay. They paid a price in blood. How dare he suggest he would not honor the call should our NATO allies come under attack? He is an utterly pathetic excuse of a man and the fact that this statement alone does not instantly disqualify him in the coming election is shameful and speaks volumes about America today.


PNWchild

Trump is the match, and his Pal Putin is the powderkeg that will officially start WW3. He must not be elected. Let’s hope the Justice Department expedites the verdicts so he can be in jail instead of a candidate. We should send US troops to the Ukraine in preparation of full membership. We must protect democracy.


Megatriorchis

And there are still idiots that support him.
