"this hat is part of my religion, you cant take it from me" said the person who wants to ban any other religious symbols that are not Christian

[@rohypnotist6263]

First rule of going to a bar has always been that YOU DON'T TALK RELIGION OR POLITICS at the bar .

[@hymedude7378]

Thank you !!!!

[@deborahminter6231]

I didn't know that 😯

[@kaivickers166]

I thought that was family gatherings...until Trump was elected, of course.

[@tajohns1805]

@themetal 30 years in the same place in a suburb predominantly conservative & religious, I still don't discuss politics or religion with any of my neighbors. Same rule goes in a bar or at work.

[@Matty80822]

@themetal you can do whatever you want if you want to ruin people's days. you are also free to flip off everybody you see. good on you if you think practicing your freedom is worth being the person who kills the vibe for no reason other than their hubris

[@robertahubert9155]

Looking at trump's head is just so painful to see. LMAO! I cringed when he said get that baby out of here. Clearly the man has an evil heart

[@mirzamay]

Yes! FINALLY someone comments on kicking the baby out besides me. How evil do you have to be to kick out a little baby? I knew that pos was untrustworthy from that alone.

[@nancymesek]

mirzamay Kind of like calling Mexicans rapists, saying a woman has blood coming out everywhere, mocking disabled, mocking women’s looks, calling nfl players sons of bitches, calling people by childish nicknames, saying the Central Park five should still be in jail even though they were innocent, calling other countries shitholes. The list is endless. I’ll take a few minutes of an actual comedian to what we have to endure every day with this clown called potus.

[@spork8655]

I cannot stand Trump, but if I were giving a speech, I wouldn't want a baby crying either. Maybe I'm not a nice person.

[@MkeKen67]

@@spork8655 - Most people can get through a speech when a baby is crying, but Trump is unable to maintain his focus when anything is not just right. It's like he takes the crying as a personal insult or something. He is an un-well person. Granted, a baby crying is not ideal, but it happens all the time in various gatherings, so I would guess that you, spork8655, would be fine giving a speech in a huge room where a baby was crying in the background. I will go out on a limb and surmise that you are probably a nicer person than Donald Trump, and you would at least not stop in the middle of your speech to request that the baby be removed.

I've said many times "How does a casino go bankrupt?"

[@MkeKen67]

I hear Trump liked to use his casinos as his own personal piggy bank, just like his charity. Of course, he just blamed his management team for his having to declare bankruptcy. The only other explanation I can think of is the overall slump Atlantic City was in for a number of years, i.e., lack of tourist dollars coming in.

The only way he has held on to the 400 mill he got from his dad and the 300 mill he got from the Apprentice is by cheating investors, bond holders, contractors, money laundering, and cheating on his taxes.

[@mprattyh3]

@@tomy5868 One; yes, it was a million dollar loan but don't leave out everything he inherited when daddy passed away. Two; from 84-95 Trump lost over a billion (not all of it his personal wealth; counting business loans and so forth), and it has been reported lost more money than almost every other American during that time. Three; actually, there's really no way to know his net worth since he refuses to show his tax returns. So, if you're going to throw out numbers lets put them into context. Edit: let's not forget that Trump grew to real fame when he got on Forbes 400 list in '84. Only to find out that he lied, claiming he was worth over a billion, which he wasn't nor is he today. Trying to say his dad's assets where his. He, in fact, called Forbes pretending to be someone named John Barron (yes, Barron....what he would later name his son🤦🏻‍♂️), an "official from the Trump Organization", to tell them how rich Donald Trump was.

Sadly, Trump as a religious leader is more true than most of us would care to admit.

[@Mayurbhedru]

Ralph Dratman when reason is against you. You will find solace in faith. People who voted for him are simple people just tired of confused reasoning of thier problem by condescending people. They follow him because he is simple to understand. Even in his lie he is more truthful then other politicians who are lier even when they are telling the truth.
