Seeing the conservative reaction to this was my first realization that we were truly fucked.

Initially: Thank god we can finally stop pretending Trump is a real candidate
Moments later: Oh, oh no
Ten years later: What what what oh shit oh fuck

Your initial reaction was the only sane path history could have gone down.

I have repeated this story numerous times.
After that tape came out, a conservative woman went on The View TV show to defend Trump.
One of the panelists kept using the phrase ‘pussy.’
The conservative woman asked her to please stop using that offensive term.

As a PoC we kinda just go with the flow. Got a few scattered family members that support him for his regressive values but its very fee and far between. For white people j can only imagine, entire families must have had a schism put through them.

“i’m… offended by him saying that too…”

What does even “conservative” mean for Americans? For Europeans it means you try to conserve things, or apparently being a moron.

in america, “conservatives” will tell you that they want a return to “traditional values” even though that’s just barely the case in reality.
what maga really wants:
be racist/bigoted with complete impunity
mandatory jesus
own slaves again
failing that, resegregation
tradwifei’m definitely leaving things out, but you get the idea–pretty much the fantasy is to return to the 1950s

Trying to remember the sound of the recording because I’ll never get over how “I moved on her like a bitch” does not read the way he intended

Was this an excerpt from his Nobel Peace Prize award speech?

Did he actually say that? Lol

Yes. It’s outrageous.

Honestly, this should’ve been the end of it. No sane country would elect someone that said this as their president

We are fundamentally broken. It doesn’t matter. It’s been a facade the whole time.
He is america. A racist misogynist bully.
I’m going to blame reconstruction failing. We never corrected the hypocrisy at our core and this is the result.

Amen. Trump is showing the world what America truly is. The rest of the world sees this. Many Americans do not.
And to throw an olive branch, many countries are a Trump away from the same realization.

A significant portion of American voters: “Heh, NICE! I wish I was famous.”

As well as when he made fun of the journalist who was in a wheelchair. I remember seeing that and I thought it was completely over for him, but no.

The Onion, if they were writing this (instead of it being actual) would have made it better reading, less disgusting.
Wilco@lemmy.zip 14 hours ago
It really should have been. The “conservatives” are not religious or conservative, they are disgusting. The “conservative” republican party is way WAY too liberal for my tastes. We should start calling republicans the “libs”, because they are.

You sound like someone who still believes a party what doesn’t blab about it’s cruelties, wrongdoing and stupidity is a party that is innocent and good. Haha, good one. Who has been the opponent of trump the first time around in 2016, Hillary Clinton, right? Personally I always welcomed trumps presidency. Thanks to him the whole world can see what a farce our democracies are (and it’s not only the MAGAs I talk about). And as Europeans it enabled us to distance ourselves more easily from the forced western dependency/decadency. I just don’t know what’s better: being a US colony as before or the recent stupidity, having a straight-from-BlackRock-lobbyist as a chancellor… Darn, and that’s one of the reason why people become more and more aggressive while becoming decreasingly tolerant to differing world views…
