"Flirty" is an inaccurate way to describe what and how he spoke about her. It was sexual harassment, live on stage.
But of course the Daily Mail would think that's how you flirt with people.

I have no idea how Americans can stand being represented like this. It's one long continuous series of insults heaped upon injury.
Imagine growing up raised by idiots. In a region where you're surrounded by idiots at all times. Then toss in constant propaganda on TVs everywhere you go. Then all the idiots around you telling you to download apps that only idiots use to repost propaganda fed to them by evil people who know they can manipulate you and your friends and family because you're all idiots.
That's basically how we are where we are.
Many of us can't and have been working hard to try and change it. Unfortunately, we didn't spend our money on enough guns and ammo to nuke a country and aren't backed by more wealth than the gdp of some nations.
I dare say France has - once again - recently demonstrated that you don't necessarily need either of those things.
And once again, comparing France to America is a dumb take ignoring major differences in basically everything about the countries.
You know what? I agree. There really is no point in comparing the two.
Right. Compare something more obvious so people can stop making the same dumb comparison.
France vs Texas
| Metric | France | Texas | Comparison |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Area | ~551,500 km² | ~695,662 km² | Texas is 26% larger |
| Population | ~68.5 million | ~31.7 million | France has 2.2× more people |
| Population Density | ~124 people/km² | ~45 people/km² | France is 2.8× denser |
I was looking it up a couple days ago - in France if you lived in the furthest large city from Paris, Nice, it would take you 8.5 hours by car or 6 hours by public transit to get to Paris. You could get off work at 4p on Friday, swing by home and be to Paris by midnight, protest for a day and half, and then be home in time for dinner on Sunday. It'll cost $100-200 USD each way, and you can buy it as a single ticket.
No let's look at Texas - The capital is Austin, which is more central North/South, and similarly offset east/west, aka it's slightly closer to the center of the landmass vs Paris. If you live in the furthest away large city, Amarillo, it is 8 hours by car or 19 hours by public transit. A city bus to the transit station, then 3 different city to city buses to get to Austin. The cost is $200-250 each way. By the time you get to Austin, you need to call your boss and let them know you won't be in on Monday, and that's if you turn around and leave immediately.
America is Fucked.

France is not the US. The US frequently kills protestors, even peaceful ones, and has literally bombed entire city blocks in the past. That's not to mention the vast legal, demographic, and geographic differences.
The US government is depraved. It is not comparable to France.
Half of us are raging, there's a small core of MAGA faithful, a larger core of "at least this is better than Democrats", and the rest are hopelessly ignorant of current affairs. I'd bet there's one dude on my entire block that's aware of this story.
Bread and circuses. They're running out of bread though, so just trying to lean on circuses.

Some of these comments are bordering just as mysoginist as trump, just with different politics. Way to go, Lemmy.
Lemmy does have a serious misogynist problem. It's a male dominated space with a lot of users from other, already misogynistic places, which creates a heavy concentration of it.
A lot of the misogyny isn't acted upon, either, because mods and admins here sometimes share the same views. It's no wonder women don't feel comfortable here. The few that do stay, such as Velma, have to constantly battle misogyny. It's fucking gross.
The world has a serious misogynist problem.
Absolutely. It's just interesting how a lot of people here can call themselves leftists and in the same breath say something misogynistic and get away with it.
They're ignorant. Its hard to wrap your head around without going to college or having an educated person leading. no one grew up with it being an okay thing to talk about, and they've fucked the last decades generation of men's heads hard-core.

She's kissing Trump's ass because she's angling for a pardon for her husband and brother.
For being diddlers right?
When someone posts Daily Mail, it's worth reminding that regardless of the truth of the article, the source is absolute shit. They breathlessly report every little thing like it's the end of the world, and ignore the real issues. It's a distraction.
Enjoy it if you want, but i'm going to protest its posting every time I see it.
Not only that, but this is basically just an article laughing about sexual harassment.
This isn't even the first time conservatives have elected a dumbfuck celebrity to the presidency. And we're 0 for 2 on fucking stopping them from doing it. This shithole needs to get its act together.
'My closing argument is NICE ASS!' -Totally definitely not a creepy rapist.
Well his closing argument in 2024 was Haitian immigrants eating pets and concepts of plans and it worked.
This is noise. Ignore it and focus on bigger things.
Keys are being jangled that have never been jingled before
I find the biggest indicator of this is the "Daily Mail" logo in the top left.

Idiocracy isn't supposed to be an instruction manual, but apparently conservatives are already that fucking dumb and we're stuck in this car with them falling off the cliff.
I like how she threw on the blonde hair and blue eyes for the right wingers
this is what the US president is so horny about on his compaigns
Her thigh isn't even making contact with the chair due to being elevated by those inflatable pillows she's sitting on. 🤮 You think she has any feeling through those things? Looks absolutely revolting to me. Better a flat ass than this monstrosity. (And I'm a phat azz lover.)

Trump talks about asses so much now.
I remember when he was talking about well hung golfers.
Haha, gross.
You forgot non-American. She's not even American.
Surprised he had time considering he spends so much of his appearances glazing the asses of Republican men.
