Dems’ “weird” attacks are getting under Trump’s skin. “Of course he’s upset,” a source told Rolling Stone
As Democrats continue their rhetorical strategy of trash-talking Donald Trump, his running mate J.D. Vance, and other “weird” and “creepy” conservative policymakers attempting to thrust the country into the dark ages, the former president has become increasingly furious at the messaging overtaking media outlets and internet memes.
During a Thursday interview with conservative radio host Clay Travis, Trump attempted to reverse the criticism and said that Democrats were “the weird ones.” He insisted, “Nobody’s ever called me weird. I’m a lot of things, but weird I’m not. And I’m upfront. And he’s not either, I will tell you. J.D. is not at all. They are.”
“We’re not weird people,” Trump added. “We’re we’re actually just the opposite.
Not buying that.
This feels like that scene in Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back where they in the Moobies and Jay is dictating the forum post to Silent Bob, “You are the ones who are the ball-lickers.”
How weird that they’re so weird about being called “weird”.
But seriously, it seems like Republicans need to think they’re in the majority. “Silent majority” and all that BS. Calling them “weird” makes them confront how much of an outlier they are. Maybe that’s part of the source of their deep insecurity about being called “weird.” Maybe also just the desire to not feel like the unpopular kids in highschool.
Boomers simply can’t handle criticism, especially when it comes from people they openly disdain like minorities, LGBTQ or young people. They can’t handle it. But yeah, being called weird seems to tap into some deep insecurity they have. Nooo, I’m the norm! I’m supposed to be the default experience. You can’t call us weird!
I think this particular jab hits home for Trump a lot harder than anyone else due to the narcissism. It may also apply to conservatives in general but I don’t think it’s necessarily a widely applicable generalization.
Not weird at all. Totally normal human.
He looks like he just witnessed a nuclear weapon go off at close range. Fucking weirdo.
And here I always considered him having just taken his face out of the loot bag the dye-pak just went off in.
Definitely Looney Toons vibes.
Regular John Q Everyman right there /s
Weird area-man stares at one too many eclipses.
The permanent tint from having spaghetti in tupperware just once.
So jealous with his weird confused boner for Kamala being bi-racial, he tried to give it a go himself with makeup.
Epic fail, what a creepy freak
Tune!
That’s such a weird thing for him to say.
That sounds like something a weirdo would say. If you have to talk about how “not weird” you are, that makes you weird. A real “non-weird” person would accept how weird just being a human being in general is and lean into it. He should just come out and admit how weird he really is, that wouldn’t be weird.
Well. Finally got under his skin.
Good.
His loose, floppy, old man skin…
Wait… JD Vance? The guy who fucked that couch? Jesus Christ… He’s defending the couch fucker. Lol. What a clown.
The makeup was a giveaway, I guess… That weird fucker looks orange he’s got so much on. Anyone else know a orange man? Seriously. Anyone else?
…anyone?
AP news will neither confirm nor deny that JD Vance had sex with a sofa.
The guy who fucked that couch? Shay D Vance is now a legend of the weird.
I saw some orange men in a movie once about a candy factory.
We could say that fucking a couch is weird and that wearing orange makeup on the daily is weird as well!
What an absolute stinky, lil weirdo
“That was some weird shit.”
— George W. Bush after Trump’s inauguration speech
Read the article and you would
Edit (after numerous downvotes): Please read OP’s article to learn that George W Bush said this.
Are you stupid?
Maybe. My point was that the quote you gave was in the article already. Maybe that’s stupid to you.
Edit: the quote was in OP’s article. Please read that article.
It is stupid to me. because I did read the article. Im the one who went and got it from the internet and shared it here.
I was verifying it was a real thing that happened because the Internet is full of bs and that is too fitting for the current trends of Dems calling maga weird to just believe on faith.
How is that not obvious to you through context? Are you new to Internet forums?
I’m imagining in your head where it’s the biggest coincidence in the world that my comment where I was laughing and saying wow I didn’t know that includes an article with a reputable source saying it did happen and for some reason I DIDNT READ IT. And then you are acting fuckin aggro about me not reading my own link?
I have so many questions about what life is like for you day to day. You should be studied.
Hey. Sorry to have pissed you off so bad. Not my intention.
Here’s where I am coming from. OP posted an article. It contains a direct quote from George W Bush stating that Trump’s inauguration speech was weird shit. You went and found another article stating the exact same thing as OPs and said you had no idea that Bush had said that. I was trying to indicate that the direct quote was clearly stated in the original article. You finding another source is redundant is all I was trying to say. It’s a direct quote from a tweet of a former President. We don’t need it to be fact checked. He said it. It’s real.
Have a good one, friend.
So the best version of your thesis is telling a bunch of people on a boat that aren’t wearing swimwear or planning on swimming that the water is good for swimming.
To be clear, you were being a snotty shit head and didn’t have to say anything at all. But then you did anyway, and it was pointless. So pointless that you didn’t even say it clearly enough to be understood.
Like my comment to the bush quote guy with a source is for all the people who clicked on the comments without wanting to read the rolling stone article. Your comment is for no one.
It’s so perfect. Knowing this feels like $6000 of therapy
Republicans wearing an ear patch…I fucked a couch once! Yeah, mee too!
Nobody’s ever called me weird.
That’s what happens if you surround yourself with spineless yes-men. Now you hear real men and women say the truth. And they call you and your mates “weird” and “creepy” just because you are!
I’d like to hear a list of 10 things he thinks are normal.
That would probably the ten weirdest things you and I had ever heard…
“We’re not weird people.”
Sounds like something a weird person would say
That’s weird, normal people don’t have to try to convince others that they’re not weird.
This is it. This is the Dem response. Wrap it up people! We’re done here.
