Everything and everyone that Trump touches turns to gold!

Wait, not gold. Oh yeah, I remember now. Shit.

Everything and everyone Trump touches turns to shit.

"Mierdas Touch" instead of the "Midas Touch".

(the spanish word "mierda" translates to "shit".)

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The shite-ass touch.

I love the Mierdas touch

The Midas' touch of Sally shit fingers

Mr Coomer filed federal lawsuits in 2022 against Mr Lindell and two of his companies, My Pillow, Inc and Lindell TV, saying their actions had caused his reputation to be "irreparably tarnished".

He "now endures frequent credible death threats and the burden of being made the face of an imagined criminal conspiracy of unprecedented scope in American history", his lawsuit said.

"In the sense that [Coomer has] been through a lot and he's still going to be looking over his shoulder," added the attorney, Charles Cain.

$2.3M is not nearly enough for that shit.

Good! What an evil idiot

[–] beatnixxx@fedia.io 15 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I suppose he'll lose some sleep over this one.

[–] triptrapper@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Those pillows fucking suck, too. I can't believe he openly marketed them as being made from leftover foam scraps, then sold them for $30 a piece.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

He will lose way more sleep to his crack addiction.

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] errer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Nah, that’s due to his shitty pillows

[–] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Back to crack, then?


To be clear though, I don't wish to denigrate crack users, but individuals who think they're so so so much better than people who are struggling and work to make everyone's lives worse, when they themselves have struggled and been helped by the services they wish to dismantle.

Bruh, you don't need to explain yourself when it comes to mike lindell I know he's still alive, but may he rest in piss.

Edit: to be an addict doesn't make you a shitty person full stop. But your choices going forward 🤷🏼‍♂️

I hope he bit down on one of his pillows while the judge was reaming him

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I mean, he makes pillows right? So it probably wouldn’t be a giant leap for him to start manufacturing couches I’d assume? …all he has to do, is make a few My Couches™ , then just pimp them out to Vance.

Presto! Debt paid.

why does my tax statement have a new "couch tax" line item?

[–] ThanksObama@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Better get some flex tape to patch up that hole in your wallet Mikey.

[–] Zomg@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Different guy, flex tape is Phil Swift, just to clarify

[–] ThanksObama@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

Oh I'm well aware. One makes a quality product, one sells pre-filled garbage bags.

[–] MantisToboggon@lazysoci.al 7 points 1 week ago

Hard to believe....

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

He could have chosen to stop (or not start) at any point.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 week ago

This dumbass fascist needs to be neutralized. I don't advocate violence. More like I'd prefer that he play tag on a highway in the dark.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I wonder how his news network will spin this.

[–] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 5 points 1 week ago

My mind was totally fucking blown when I learned that he had a fucking news network. I had to look it up, it was too "out there" to believe.

Isn’t that the republican cure for covid?

[–] IAmLamp@fedia.io 3 points 1 week ago

I guess it technically could be. Certainly sounds like a viable cure for stupid, at the very least.

[–] D_C@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

I thought that was bleach...

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

he might have to use cinnamon or nutmeg powder.
