      That’s what makes it even more amusing. I mean, Team Red criticized everything about our candidate from the colour of his suits to his nationality with his politics definitely not off limits. We’re just having a little fun here.

        It should elicit nothing more than an eye roll from anyone with a two-digit age. “He’s stinky!” is being spread in a politics community. It’s literally pathetic grade-school garbage.

        We’re just having a little fun here.

        I have zero doubt you wouldn’t perceive someone saying the same about Biden or Harris the same way, lol.

          “He’s stinky” is a schoolyard taunt if it’s not true, or if it was a one off issue and it never went away. If this adult can’t take care of his own hygiene, that reveals some deeper issue that’s probably worth discussing. Couple that with noone likes working with someone who stinks, so it calls into question his effectiveness as a leader.

          But more importantly, his cult followers view him as some strong alpha male. If they see the reality that everyone who gets close to him is laughing at this man-child behind his back, were less likely to end up with him as president and that’s a good thing.

        “LOL he’s stinky!” is not the burn you think it is. Makes you look like a not-particularly-bright 7 year-old. Grow up.

        EDIT: lmao, tons of immature babies angrily clicking that downvote button, awww.

      No, “tan suit” was a contrived issue. No world leaders would be put off or would judge Obama for wearing a tan suit.

      Bad personal hygiene on the other hand….

      This man can’t take care of his own damn hygiene, I think that’s actually incredibly relevant to someone that wants to take care of an entire goddamn major country.

        Exactly. It’s pathetic how little self-awareness people can have when blinded by political fealty.

        Just like the stupid ‘nicknames’ people think they’re so clever making up and repeating, when all it’s doing is showing that that’s someone who merits zero attention from any mature adult. Durr hurr Obummer, durr hurr DEMONcrats, durr hurr ReTHUGlicans, durr hurr orange, durr hurr SCAMala, etc. etc.

        In a way, I don’t mind because it’s just an easy way to identify people who should not be taken seriously, lol.

        No it’s definitely not the same. A tan suit is just a matter of taste (pretty good taste if you ask me), and a laugh is part of you, it can’t really be changed, not honestly anyway. But nobody is just a “stinky” person, that’s a reflection of a lack of hygiene, a skill and habit that every competent adult and older child should have mastered, let alone a candidate for the highest office. How can he care for his constituents if he apparently doesn’t care for himself?

        Eh, don’t care. Literally everything and anything weird or gross about trump is fair game. Dude is a psychopathic fascist pedophile. There are court cases about it that were only dismissed (correction) dropped because he threatened to murder the families of the girls involved. Don’t be an apologist for that.

            Yes, I have a team. It’s called “not a fascist”.

            The other team is the fascists.

            I know I’m not being civil when I say this, but you’re verging into a category that does not deserve an iota of respect: Do not fucking come in here with that false equivalence. Do not be a fascist apologist.

              What a surprise, you consider your team the good guys and the other the bad guys, lmao.

              If you had values, you’d recognize shitty/stupid behavior no matter who is doing it. By giving your side a pass for behavior you’d absolutely criticize the other side for, you prove that you have no actual values. It’s team loyalty over integrity. Your comment just reinforced that.

              By the way, calling out “he’s stinky!” as childish, which it objectively is, is not fucking FASCISM APOLOGY, lmaoooooooo. Ideologues are so over the top, hahahaha, holy shit! Listen to yourself, for crying out loud.
