    Remember when Trump raped a 13 year old girl and then settled out of court, then a few years later he said that people who settle out of court are obviously guilty?

      Interesting. Is there a site that has all of his convictions and settlements listed? This would be great in reasoning why he shouldn’t run for office if you have a link to all that.

        This isn’t exactly that, but helpful…

        He’s demonstrably the actual biggest loser in history, and he just got more loser-y folks… If any of you are starting to have your memories fade, here’s a quick refresher to read this morning and then copy and send to your aunt karen in Missouri.

        • 0 re-elections won
        • 1 term president
        • 2 times impeached
        • 3 marriages
        • 4 inch lifts in his shoes
        • 5 kids, from 3 different mothers

        • 10 years that trump paid $0 in income taxes between 2000 and 2015. ($0 to cops, teachers, roads, prisons, disaster relief, etc)
        • 11 trump associates charged with serious crimes over the past 5 years
        • 12 million votes (the big lie) - trump claims he won the 2020 election by 12 million votes when in reality, he lost by about 7 million votes.
        • 13 of August, 2021 - one of multiple days that trump was supposed to magically become president again according to Qanon and a crack addicted pillow salesman (the two most respected information sources in the gop)
        • 14 year old girl in a youth choir that trump approached in 1992 to say, “Wow! Just think - in a couple years I’ll be dating you.”
        • 15 originally confirmed cases of COVID in the US trump said would soon be, “down to close to zero.” followed by, “like a miracle, it will disappear.” - over 1,000,000 Americans have since died of COVID as it continues to kill years later.
        • 16 years old - age of daughter ivanka when she hosted “miss teen” pageant and, according to long time trump associate Noel Casler, “trump called her over in the middle of a rehearsal and had her give him a lap dance while he leered at the crew.”
        • 17 known trump and russia investigations from local, state and federal prosecutors
        • 18 gop senators that ignored trump threats / warnings and supported Biden admin’s infrastructure bill.

        • 20 the day in January, 2021, when Biden was sworn in despite trump inciting a violent insurrection to stop election verification at the US Capitol.
        • 21 gun salute that trump ordered for himself when he left office after a humiliating defeat, even though he never served in the military, famously called military members “losers” and “suckers” and actively avoided the draft with a cowardly “bone spurs” excuse.
        • 22 date in August, 2021, when Alabama hate rally crowd booed trump for finally saying people should get vaccinated, only after 700,000 Americans have died due mostly to his failure as president
        • 23 as in wrestlemania 23 in 2007 where trump, a cartoon level failure with no other prospects, participated in a fake bet that a proxy wrestler would win a fake fight on his behalf or he would shave his wig and hair plugs off.
        • 24 day in August, 2021, when trump actually filed a lawsuit in Florida court against YouTube, a private company, demanding that they reinstate his YouTube channel like a desperate, irrelevant embarrassment with no platforms left to abuse.
        • 25 plus credible sexual assault allegations against trump, spanning decades and with accusers starting as young as 13 years old at time of assault.

            That list feels like a classic Reddit comment, packed with smugness. No one is going to convince their “aunt Karen in Missouri” that Trump is bad using a Facebook-tier list like that.

            To answer your question, PoppinKREAM on Reddit often posted detailed comments with sources. Sort by “Top” on his Reddit profile and his fifth comment (as of today) has a much better list.

              Yeah, I was hoping this place would be a little more accurate in discussion. But it’s still the same circlejerk. “Orange man bad” gets all the upvotes, regardless if the comment is true or not.

                lemmy.world is a big instance and a lot of the Redditors from the initial migration landed here. But the great thing about Lemmy & the Fediverse is that you don’t have to stick with only one instance. I personally have accounts on lemmy.ml (where I landed after the migration) and beehaw.org (I joined in the early days and fell in love with their community & philosophies). I usually just browse “All” through the Voyager app though, so I can see posts from instances across Lemmy.

                Using Lemmy / the Fediverse requires a different mindset than Reddit and other monolith websites: you’re given a lot more power to choose how to engage with the community at large and the Reddit hive mind isn’t nearly as effective. There’s still going to be circlejerks and brigades and all kinds of shenanigans that come with forums, but don’t take the voting system too seriously and you’ll have a much better time.

              First, I’m not your friend. It would be embarrassing to even be mistakenly associated with you. Second, the things wrong with the list are most of your points are just your opinion or things that have no proof or weight. But it is telling that in order to come up with a sizable list, you eat the need to include superfluous bullshit points. I mean, you really find the number of women he’s had kids with troublesome? Or that he has inserts in his shoes. Nevermind the flat out lies in your list. For instance, can you name the multiple officers that were murdered on Jan 6?

          It would be good to remove silly things like the lifts in his shoes. Removes credibility from the list for anyone not already against Trump.

            With who? The deplorables that live for hate that we’ll never persuade? Or us, who have earned a chuckle and his expense?

            There is nobody on the fence reading this list. If they are, the jabs aren’t going to be the deal breaker.

            But this is moot. There are no actual independents. Just self aware ashamed in denial Republicans.

            The only work is activating Democrat voters and convincing the left of us that Israel’s regime sucks but not having democracy in America doesn’t help any situation.

              I really hate the “us vs them” bullshit, but it’s real. I don’t like many of the Democrat policies and am on the progressive side. They suck. But the other side is literal child raping treason Nazis. The fact that I’m saying that with no hyperbole in 2024 is so fucking wild. I wanted the star Trek future with a merit based economy and green alien babes… Not this bullshit.

                While there are policies I can get behind, I am in no way considered liberal, progressive or whatever other terms are used. So do you think I am a “literal child raping treasonous Nazi”? If your answer is anything other than no, this is exactly why the country is in the shit and there will never be any actual progress.

                    At least you’re honest about completely dismissing those that don’t think like you. It’s interesting that you demonize a group you don’t agree with and then justify it with hyperbole.

      Everything Trump says has a little asterisk above it which is “*except when I do it” - except he probably doesn’t know about asterisks. They’re pretty complicated.

          One time an asterisk came up to Trump, big asterisk, strong asterisk, tears streaming down its typeface and it said “Mr Trump, no president has ever been treated as poorly as you*”.

        Lawsuits were filled against the buffoon and the pedo by the same individual, but ultimately they were dismissed or withdrawn. They were not settled, at least in no way that can be proven.

        Now I’m not saying that the accusations were invented to negatively affect the buffoon’s election chances, though that is a possibility. I find it unlikely as most sane individuals, especially with what was known at that time, would not risk a crime or being counter sued by filing a false claim. Not to mention licensed lawyers putting their own careers and repairs on the line.

        We also know that the buffoon and his enablers and followers are not afraid to break the law or push its limits to make problems go away.

        Anyway they’re is also this

          The OP on this thread said he settled out of Court. Is that true? From everything I’ve read the cases were thrown out?

            I have no evidence one way or the other. It looks like the California case was likely dismissed because what was being sued over occurred in New York. And the cases in New York were withdrawn, but why that occurred is unknown. There may have been a settlement out of court, but I can’t find anything to prove that.

            We have plenty of evidence at this point to speculate on what may have happened. Could there have been a settlement? Yes. Could the complainant have been intimidated into dropping the case? Yes. Could the complainant ultimately decide that her own health, safety, and well-being was more important? Absolutely.

            These were all civil fillings seeking damages because the statute for criminal liability has passed. Pursuing a case like this as an individual is going to put her whole life under a microscope, force her to publicly relive the abuse, and open her up to cross examination by the defense. I think it is incredibly likely she walked away.
