Yeah, but a war is happening half a world away and my feels is hurt. I think I'll sit it out in protest. Damn the parties for not fielding credible candidates!

Not if we convert all 20 seats held by Republicans in the 2026 midterm elections. Then the orange man has to go away.

You mean the one he has now or the one the government will be paying for?

Don't be ridiculous. The maids here (we call them domestic helpers) are from other asean countries in the region. Plenty of local girls to go around for an expat paedo to grope. Foreigner worship and scoring an expat mate is a thing here.
/s (not really)

Just forge a latter from the prime minister inviting him over for a swim. We can all get over it.

I was gonna comment child sex trafficking, but pretty much the same idea.

Diplomatic immunity. They can't arrest him, the most they can do is kick him out of the country.

Just return to sender his forehead when he arrives and send him back on the plane
u/psx_crab@lemmy.zip · 11 points
Cannot confirm, i want him send back.

Of all the things that make this guy so unpleasant, grey hair is waaay down the list.

jesus fucking christ, how did these people gain control? I know there is plenty of answers but I don't really want to hear them anymore. I want a final solution for the most stupid people who have the most control in this currently shit country
u/MuskyMelon@lemmy.world · 4 points
He calls himself an alpha king so he's gonna sound like a *removed*
u/captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 2 points
That implies he has a good ascot. He has an ok ascot at best

*\*Looking in the mirror after getting abandoned by another blind date who called him "shallow, bland, and aggravating" just before disappearing.\**
"I have a good personality. An ascot is personality, right?"
u/captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 29 points
I was going to make a joke about how that face doesnt look straight, but no, that man is unironically and heterosexually wearing an ascot without the slightest bit of flair, style, or panache. Like good gods man its an ascot, you gotta treat it like it's a purple suit, you either wear the hell out of it or you put it back until you can

u/FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world · 38 points
Is there anything douchier than a guy who calls himself an alpha male?
u/Bonus@lemmy.world · 32 points
The dude's really wearing an ascot with a straight face like that, isn't he?
u/ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one · 22 points

every news from the US in 2025 sounds like an episode of House of Cards. We're not even done with the year yet man

This Australian can only apologise.
For shame.

My prediction is this guy has active involvement in human trafficking and that this position enables that work.
