Hooray, more bullshit bills purely for the purposes of signalling!

[–] postcapitalism@lemmy.today 27 points 23 hours ago

I’m actually okay with this because it’s bizarro and devalues the assholes already on the mountain. Good let’s reveal the farce for what it is!

Adding another genocidal colonizer on a colonizer monument beside other genocidal colonizers.

Yawn.

Is this not the onion? Am I hallucinating from smoking weed or some weird shit? What the fuck?

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I will only support putting Donald Trump on Mount Rushmore if you then proceed to push him off.

[–] gnate@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

I initially read it as "Donald Trump to be put under Mount Rushmore"

[–] spiderhamster@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

Okay, but the important question becomes: what does that bastard land in/on? I vote for a pool of sharks because of Shark Tank.

I mean, we’ve got two slave owners up there, why not throw up a sexual predator too?

I feel like Stone Mountain would be more appropriate

Add him to the laser show.

By the popular, via the people, of the person.

with the message: “Let’s get carving.”

Surely she meant "Carve, baby, carve"?

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Definitely what a sane party and not a cult of personality would do.

Fuck this shit hole country. Can’t wait for the inevitable collapse.

Is he also going to let Elon build a secret base inside where he can fly inside with a big ass car plane while JD Vance sucks Elons cock to prove he's loyal? And they're all puppets?

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I don’t think that will work.

I watched a show on the history channel, the aliens live inside the mountains already.

[–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Poor Team America, replaced by illegal aliens.

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 0 points 22 hours ago

No, t's not going to work because Elon's penis is too small.

[–] foggy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Holy fucking shit no way

Serious?

Holy shit.

This is the funniest fucking thing. I hope they put some really tiny hands on the cliffs.

Y'all sure get excited about "introduced" bills. Does no one know how our legislatures work?!

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Well one, the GOP has control of both chambers, so nothing that gets introduced, no matter how dumb, is safe from passing through votes from both. Especially as none of them want to directly piss off Trump.

And two, even if this has zero chance of passing, it's still a beyond absurd performative piece of legislation playing up the already inflated ego of a megalomaniac who is surrounded by sycophants and brown nosing opportunists constantly seeking to further puff up the already inflated orange head of an objectively weird, stupid, selfish, hateful criminal for the chance to earn some bit of his favor and maybe absorb some of his power and influence in the process. If that sort of openly unethical and cultish behavior from a sitting congressperson is not worth getting "excited" about, what is?
