Trump Calls Emergency Meeting to Come Up With Sexist Nickname for Kamala Harris
Trump Calls Emergency Meeting to Come Up With Sexist Nickname for Kamala Harris
Donald Trump has cut short a Florida golf trip to urgently assemble a short-list of misogynistic and racist slurs for likely Presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
You're viewing a single thread.
He’s not especially bright. It’ll be “Krazy Kamala”.
“Cacklin’ Kamela” already exists and seems to be mean enough to fit the bill
Its only flaw is that some contingent will write “KacKlin’ Kamela” which kind of gives the game away
Which is pretty funny too when you pick it apart and realize the crux of that insult is “she laughs wrong”.
OH NO! Clearly that should disqualify someone from office
Well, given they think wearing tan suits should disqualify (people of certain skin color) from office…
It's not funny because this tactic works. Maybe not in such a short timeline, but it worked on Hillary Clinton. Ask any republican what they think of her and they'll tell you she's a bitch. Ask them how long they've thought of her as such and it'll be over 12 years. Ask them why and the only solid response they'll have is Benghazi and maybe a crack about not satisfying Bill. She has been vilified for mundane things to turn her into a wholly annoying person that actually hurts her public image.
So while I'm with you, it's fun to pick apart this insult to show how boring it is, I can't help but fear it's effectiveness. This is coming from the group that thought Hillary would start a war every month. You know, because all the other wars, all under men, were naturally occurring or something.
Pokemon go to the polls!
I mean Trumpists don't care about facts, they will lap anything up.
But Hillary was hated all over the spectrum.
Yeah, and what was she hated for?
Ignoring several states in her campaign.
Being absolutely unrelatable.
Her policies very conservative.
Generally acting like the world owed her the position.
Politicians always skip states.
No candidates are actually relatable, they're just lying
Conservative policies are par for winning democratic candidates
Every candidate has to act like they're going to win. At what point did she seem like it was owed? Was it after she won the popular vote but lost the electoral?
What do you have from before 2015? Follow up, was Bernie your pick for 2016? Genuine question, not using it as a punchline
Yes, Bernie has been my pick since forever, he's the backbone of progressiveness in the US politics.
And I do believe he is an honest man, if not always absolutely on top of every topic (like the nuclear closure).
Politics may be a popularity contest, but personally I felt like Hillary got more votes because she wasn't Trump. But I believe anyone else would have gotten more votes than her.
I firmly hope Kamala will energize voters even more than Biden, even though her 2020 candidacy wasn't very convincing.
Hillary wasn't acting just like she was going to win, she had that demeanor of 'of course I win, what else could ever happen', and that made her even less likeable.
The whole email thing was absolute BS though, and I can't believe people hopped on that train.
Attacking victims of sexual assault. I'm sure there are a lot of other genuine reasons for not liking her. I was not brain washed into hating her. I still voted for her.
and they share that laughing compilation of her... honestly it made me like her a little bit. misogyny is obviously alive and well, but i don't think this kind of stupid, surface level "women should be more reserved and shut their mouth" misogyny flies as easily as it did even a decade ago. who knows.
Yeah they can’t use “Cackling copilot Kamala” anymore can they
To be honest the guy can come up with some catchy nicknames, there's even a Wikipedia article listing them:

Like, "Little Rocket Man" is fucking savage. 😂
That's the whole problem with him in a nutshell, to be honest. He's an entertainer after all. You can call it what you want but there is a weird sort of charisma mixed in with the narcissism and utter deranged lunacy. That's why he's so dangerously good at appealing to his base and maintaining this cult of personality.
He wasn’t even really an entertainer though. He’s “entertaining” because of how big of a douchbag he is, which is why he got The Apprentice show. I don’t think most people watched that because they thought he was the hero of that story.
Surprised no one downvoted you, on lemmy of all places, but you’re completely right
Meatball Ron is my personal favorite. As a Floridian I've had ample opportunity to whip that one out in conversation
the "convicted felon" is the only nicknane people should use for him, though.
We already have "Crooked Joe", he's just going to recycle that as "Crooked Kamala"
Sleepy Kamala doesn't have the right ring to it I suppose, lol.
