I thought for sure it had to be a parody account, but it's actually real.

(1,336 posts)"Isn't WWE fake?" Well, yes indeed it is. Just points out the fact that just about EVERYTHING about Trump is fake (oh, and everything he says, too).

(218 posts)because he just keeps plumbing new depths.
Think about the fact that this wasn't something he dashed off in a moment. It probably wasn't easy for his little brain and little hands to create the extra little visual effects. He was experimenting and testing and cussing and laughing about his own cleverness, while the world dissolves around him.
Or maybe an almost equally mentally-challenged underling produced it and brought it to him, and is now his new best friend.
Also note that for some moronic reason, it's a flipped image.

(129,662 posts)and then he tweeted it.

(218 posts)I just get a kick out of the other scenario.
I do believe the part about him being enamored with it, though, and suddenly thinking the person who brought it to him is a genius who deserves lavish rewards.
BumRushDaShow
(129,662 posts)searching for something else or it bubbled up last week from the media discussions (and denials from the Drumpf camp) about his "stoking violence". But I saw the video out there (and it may have been linked to here on DU too).
Over the past 20+ years, he has been heavily (and personally) involved in the "entertainment" world -via various ventures (casinos, beauty pageants, wrestling, boxing, television). So that aspect has given him the greatest amount of adulation and "power" when his real estate ventures were bankrupting left and right. So it seems natural for him to return to that (and that is why he does "rallies" rather than press conferences).

(4,407 posts)Even in jest, it implies he is in a fight with a news outlet and that he will hurt them if they don't fall in line.

oberliner
(58,724 posts)Saying that the news media is unfair to Trump and has it in for him. And that this was just a joke. And that wrestling is fake so it wasn't a call for violence. Seriously, he said this.

(4,222 posts)I don't know why they have him as a CNN contributor as he adds nothing of any substance to the discussion. Just another Trump lapdog.

(860 posts)it's tRump, the super thang!
he sure knows how to fake anger. let's not see him unleashing the real thing.
although as any sane person knows, keeping the lid on pure anger and violence
takes a lot of energy.
I say take the silver coke spoon he's had since the '70's away from him along
with his phone and any other twitter account and any WMD trigger mechanism

His finishing move is called "the liberal agenda". Someone should make a video using him and send it to Trumpy.

(4,222 posts)This is the President of the United States body slamming someone. I know it's old video but there is nothing presidential about him. And to think he's representing us at the G20 next week. I keep thinking he cannot get lower but he can't work his way to right territory. He's stuck in wrong mode.

(5,447 posts)This is what's wrong with having an electoral college that ignores the popular vote. A minority of the voters think this is acceptable. The man is out of his f--ing mind.
