yea. no dip

[-] Kraven_the_Hunter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 hours ago

I find it funny how MAGSts spend all this effort creating photos of Trump looking and acting how they envision him in their heads - because he's never going to do or be any of them.

  • Naked with chiseled abs? Nope
  • Interacting with his followers? Nope
  • Wading through the floodwaters? Nope
  • Slender? Nope
  • Cradling or caring for children? Nope. Well, not released yet anyway
  • Leading a charge into battle? Nope

You can tell it's AI because it tried to make his hands normal sized.

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Trump.... just rebuild! I'll help you call my guy who does buildings for me. Problem solved!

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 9 points 3 hours ago

Yeah, no shit.

[-] hperrin@lemmy.world 23 points 4 hours ago

You know what is a real photo? This one.

[-] ohellidk@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 hours ago

Love how all of the sudden, Facebook is now the expert at identifying AI pictures, despite constantly falling for them almost every time.

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 10 points 4 hours ago

I don’t think Trump has ever worn jeans.

[-] smeenz@lemmy.nz 1 points 14 minutes ago

On the other hand, wearing jeans in water is just the sort of stupid thing he might do, like looking at the sun during an eclipse.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 29 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

If it were real, that'd be an incredibly dangerous thing to do--even with a life preserver vest--and a physically taxing one, as well. Neither of which Trump would be doing.

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 25 points 6 hours ago

I mean, drowning is kind of the least of your worries in those situations.

NEVER walk through even suburban flood waters unless it is life or death. Because you know those things called "sewers"? Yeah, they are under there. And if the water has reached the point where it is even a foot off the ground? Then those sewers are entirely(-ish) full and that "water" contains significant amounts of poo, medical waste, chemicals, and so forth. Let alone corpses of animals... and people.

So that is basically liquid hepatitis and Erastil knows what else.

It is also why you NEVER buy a car that has been in a flood area and houses really should be basically demolished at that point (but aren't because Capitalism).

[-] kelseybcool@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Where do you live where people flush corpses?

[-] 24_at_the_withers@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

A sealed casket is buoyant. If a cemetery is flooded, caskets, especially of the recently deceased with disturbed soil, are known to rise through the soil and then dump their contents (bodies) into the floodwaters.

[-] mx_smith@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

It’s not about flushing them but I would imagine that graveyards that are below sea level have the bodies in mausoleums and many of those you can walk into so it would not surprise me that places near the ocean might have a rotted corpse.

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)
  1. You would be amazed what people flush down their toilets
  2. You do realize there are other people in that flooded area too, right? Those "missing" folk? Hopefully all of them show up at a Waffle House two counties over. The reality is... many of them are still there in that horrific soup.
[-] TheDoozer@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

Places that flood bad enough that people and animals die in them?

[-] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 117 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Of course it is. Nothing in his history would make anyone sane believe he'd be anywhere near active flood waters. Or even wear a safety vest on the first place.

[-] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 74 points 8 hours ago

Trump claimed to have sent workers to Ground Zero after the 9/11 attacks.

Not only didn't Trump send workers, he didn't do anything for the volunteers who did show up.

Plenty of places were offering volunteers rooms and / or food during the clean up operations. Trump's properties were locked tight.

He did take money becuase he was a 'small business' owner.

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 69 points 8 hours ago

Don't forget him bragging that he now held the tallest skyscrapers on the NYC skyline.

[-] Atom@lemmy.world 62 points 8 hours ago

He did also claim, on 9/11 mind you, that he now had the tallest building in Manhattan. Which wasn't even true.

This guy has to be exhausted for constantly coming up with the worst fucking takes, lying to boost his own ego and generally being a giant dumbass. I'm exhausted for him.

Gotta downvote this link to a horrible site. So many ads and pop-ups, and I never saw the picture in question

[-] 5oap10116@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

There's nothing wrong with those hands. There's ~15-18 fingers between the two of them and the joints are totally in the right place.

[-] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 3 points 4 hours ago

Oh gosh I looked at the hand and think I lost 2d4 sanity points.

[-] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

And the other hand is giant. Trump is well known for his giant manly hands

[-] AA5B@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

It’s amazing how many glitches people are able to spot. I don’t really have an eye for that level of detail but usually just get a vague unnaturallness

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 hours ago

At this point they're long-standing bugs.

[-] CaptnNMorgan@lemmy.world 11 points 6 hours ago

You don't use ad-blockers?

If a good percentage of Americans can fall for Turnip

... a good percentage of them will fall for this image.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

It wouldn't surprise me if some of them still thought that the mission accomplished press release was a big win for W.

[-] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 32 points 8 hours ago

He's wearing jeans in the photo for once. I can't imagine him ever wearing jeans

[-] zephorah@lemm.ee 21 points 7 hours ago

I doubt that man even owns a pair of jeans.

[-] undercrust@lemmy.ca 10 points 6 hours ago

That dump truck of an ass would never fit into a pair of Levi's

[-] idunnololz@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago
[-] Blackout@fedia.io 45 points 8 hours ago

They had to. It's far too dangerous for him to be near actual water. If his diaper gets too saturated it will drag him under.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 7 points 6 hours ago

I mean what would even be the purpose of intentionally wading through water? Don't they usually do fly overs to view the aftermath?

Even if this was true, it would just be evidence that he did a stupid PR stunt for votes...
