>:(

I hope he doesn't get memed to president again. 4 years was bad enough.

Late night television comedians like Seth Meyers were at their best during the Trump era imo. The content practically writes itself.
- I'm of a different opinion. This fuck face did so much ridiculous shit that it ruined parody.
- And as we all know that's a valid reason to vote
Nothing drives voter turnout on both sides like him - and there are a lot more voters that hate him than not.
Sometimes the Fediverse is awesome!
- Downvotes are disabled.

In fairness, this is a pretty unique situation. How many other times have you seen ex-president mugshots?

That's actually what annoys me the most. That stupid fucking face is going to be a famous image. It'll be in text books for decades.

It'll be in text books for decades.

Not if you're in "Some Blacks benefited from slavery" Florida 😭
- It will be. But framed as heroic.
- Jesus fuck is that actually taught in schools?
It's going to be the next Che Guevera shirt
I doubt a president getting arrested is that big of a history compared to abolishing slavery or a war.

It will be a footnote, or a quiz question for sure. But nothing more.
- Uh huh, just like how people forgot Nixon and his peace signs.

what even is the origin of this 😭

Trump got his mugshot taken today at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia. This is his (fourth?) indictment, but the first one where he had to have a mugshot taken. His bond is $200000 USD.
Fulton County Jail mugshot. Trump and 18 (?) other people have been charged in Georgia for attempting to change the 2020 election results there. Last night he had to turn himself in and post bail.
I'm just as much out of the loop as you, but I think a lot of people around Trump had to have Mugshots taken of them as part of a procedure surrounding ??? and that's where my half knowledge ends ^^
- They're being charged with crimes. That's why they are having mugshots taken and going to court.

I've added the word 'trump' to my sync post filter

But now how will you see my post called "This is my final trump card" that I was going to post tomorrow? 😞
- You'll have to use a euphemism

Am not American and seeing that psychopathic looking face everywhere made browsing lemmy shit. Bro , am here for memes and tech news. Like, it was kinda entertaining watching the American political shitshow but the joke joke of "orange man with red eyes and funny psychopathic look" got old pretty quick.

If you use Sync or Connect you can hide posts containing political keywords
- I don't use them but i'll definitely see if any of the lemmy apps i use have keyword based filter. Can i copy and possibly share your filter list ? (maybe I'd share it in a post ) IMO, it should be add by default to lemmy apps so people who don't care about American politics can block them outright.

"and i wouldve gotten away with it, if it wasnt for you pesky DA's!"

Jury's still out (literally) on whether or not he got away with it.

Yall should use his name so this annoying shit can be properly blocked

Facebook too

Why so serious?...oh wait...never mind
