Another one for the golf course.

"He has no principles. None. None,” she said of Trump

Glad she at least was human.

[–] iBaz@lemmy.world 50 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Half-human, at best. She resigned her position as a federal judge after it was revealed she also committed tax fraud after their father passed.

[–] SheDiceToday@eslemmy.es 54 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Having the shame to resign puts her ahead of 99.99% of a certain group of people.

[–] iBaz@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Was it shame, or were there worse things waiting for her if sure didn't resign?

[–] elbarto777@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Worse like what, trying to overthrow the government?

Or accepting lavish vacation packages from billionaires?

[–] ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk 10 points 11 months ago

They meant "worse things" as in consequences for her if she didn't resign.

[–] Creat@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 11 months ago

didn't she resign cause she got caught, and likely was given no actual choice? Like "resign or be disbarred" or whatever the equivalent would be?

Only two left, odds getting better.

The sad part is that it could still be a very long time.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The upside is I will still be alive to pee on his grave.

He needs to live at least until he's convicted of trying to steal the election.

[–] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 54 points 11 months ago (2 children)

when she retired amid a judicial conduct inquiry into her alleged involvement in possible tax fraud for her family.

Is there anyone in that family who isn't like the very worst of the Kennedys?

[–] almar_quigley@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That’s an odd comparison. It’s more like “is there anyone in that family who isn’t like every other Trump?” They are all pieces of shit. No need to go outside their family to find worse examples.

[–] billiam0202@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago

Mary Trump, daughter of Fred Trump Jr., seems to have her head on straight.

[–] interceder270@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

I mean, rich people are assholes.

That goes for their families as well. They cultivate a culture of hoarding as much wealth as possible no matter what.

I can't believe the Clintons would do something like this

[–] rodneylives@lemmy.world 44 points 11 months ago (1 children)

When I saw her name was Maryanne I was worried that she was "the good Trump," Mary, who has been very outspoken about her disdain for Donald. It appears that it wasn't.

Oh shit, should we tell them? Do they know?

Am I going to die?

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Only if you are 30+, which is considered old enough to die, as back pain starts to manifest.

[–] myrrh@ttrpg.network 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

...i slipped down a wet flight of stairs fifteen years ago, in my late thirties, and took the typical six weeks to restore my mobility, six months for full recovery...

...after fifty, though, as i was leaning over one day, my spine decided to just let go and has repeated the exercise four times since: i'm pretty sure that's when my factory warranty expired...

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It depends. Are you ever planning on being old?

Eww and get wrinkly? No thanks

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He has two dead older siblings, and one dead younger sibling. He can drop dead anytime now.

She getting buried at his (totally not a) house for another tax break or some shit too?

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No. He doesn't have any more top secret documents to hide.

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Just give it time

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 22 points 11 months ago (1 children)

These Trumps always have the best hair dews. You can tell it runs in the family.

The wrong sibling died.
