    During the campaign there was a good series of photos showing the difference between them.

    The Obamas looking happy and loving, engaging eachother. The Bidens looking happy and loving. Those 2 shitbirds looking like miserable fucks.

      Yeah, that’s called cherrypicking

      What the fuck, you literally can’t find any picture of this couple of ghouls not looking awkward together

        Call it cherry picking if you will, but it’s gonna be a hell of a lot easier to find pics of Obamas and Bidens being happy than it is of that orange diddler and his plastic wife not looking miserable

    Trump also campaigns against happiness… The snowflake got upset that Kamala laughed at all

    Everything he does is about money. Even the YMCA dance crap clearly isn’t him having fun, it’s just he tried it once, it got attention, and so he uses it as a tool to get votes. It’s also why he keeps doing it. He has nothing original

    Honestly yeah, that’s so sad. The Obamas looking like goals, whilst the Trumps look like they’re halfway through a divorce trying to look friendly for the kids.

      It waa green card marriage and she probably only stayed for the money. I doubt there was ever any love there to begin with.

              So I did read a bit about narcissism a while after splitting up with my ex (after she claimed she’d read about narcissism and her new boyfriend ticked a bunch of boxes and she told me about them and they were all things she did to me). Apparently there are subtypes of narcissistic personality disorder. Some see themselves as literal gods while others absolutely resent themselves.

              Then there’s this one and I think that’s also the one you were thinking of:

              Compensatory narcissist Seeks to counteract or cancel out deep feelings of inferiority and lack of self-esteem; offsets deficits by creating illusions of being superior, exceptional, admirable, noteworthy; self-worth results from self-enhancement.

              My ex ticks so many goddamn boxes.

              1. Spends more money than she (or realistically, her partner she mooches off of) can afford to. Always shows off new things, but then sells them for cheap so she can buy other new things.

              2. Sometimes wants to help people… Except nobody wants her help because she keeps bringing it up afterwards. For months, if not years.

              3. Has to have multiple sexual partners, but also NEEDS her partner to be committed to monogamy and loyal so she can feel in control.

              4. Constantly talking shit about her friends and what she considers stupid decisions or physical or personality flaws on their part. A lot of the time she accuses her friends of doing things she does (theft, cheating, prostitution, etc). Insults her friends behind their backs for being overweight even if she’s no different. etc.

              Our entire life together was a game of keeping up with the Joneses. Over the course of 2 years we had like 50 baby strollers, nearly half of them were bought new. Which she always had to show to her friends. There was a lot of other shit too, but this bullshit bothered me more than all the lying and cheating. Now that her new boyfriend also left her (or she left him - depends on who she’s talking to), she’s telling me about job opportunities she has (has been unemployed for months, why not take one already?) and what car she’s planning to buy for money that someone’s apparently gonna lend her… While she’s crashing on someone’s couch because she was kicked out for not paying rent for several months.

              There are so many other things, to the point that she’s a danger to people around her, both physically and emotionally. But she’ll never admit it to herself and get help :/ And unfortunately, until my kid’s old enough to decide not to see her, we have to have shared custody because she doesn’t do drugs and physical violence is pretty hard to prove after the fact.

        He wants to eliminate green card marriages and natural birth citizenship.

        His latest wife is a green card marriage and his mother was an immigrant.

      I don’t think she got what she wanted. I think she’s miserable. She just wanted the money, but now she has responsibilities because technically she’s the first lady. I’m sure, she would have divorced him a long time ago if he wasn’t president.

        Wait, is there some American law that forbids the first lady to divorce a president? Also what about the 4 years between his two terms?

        It seems like she has exactly what she wants.

          No law, but she would likely be killed in the streets if she even attempted it by insane fanatics. That’s not even remotely a joke either. Its an extremely real possibility.

          No, no law against it. I think she doesn’t want to risk upsetting his fanatic followers. And in between his terms they were still in the public eye.

            Uhm…So… Why isn’t she divorcing him if she’s not happy?

            Your argument was that she is a first lady, therefore she cannot divorce a president, but turns out that’s not the case.

            So she didn’t get what she wanted. She’s miserable. There are no laws stopping her divorcing him, but according to you she won’t do it because she cares about trump’s followers? Or do you think she’s scared for her life?

              Some people simply can’t see women having any authority/accountability in their life. It’s the same with JD’s wife, or until recently, Erika Kirk. I think it’s a form of misogyny. These are not “poor little women” stuck with their husbands. They know exactly what they wanted, and they got it. They’re also pieces of shit.

              The scared for her life thing. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t empathise with her, I think she deserves to be miserable. But I don’t think she has an option for divorce right now.

        I’m paraphrases something I read a while ago but…

        She was born not ugly and had access to a plastic surgeon. Her goal was to likely to marry some rich old schmuck who can’t get it up, then spend the next 10-15 years sitting by fancy private resort pools popping pills, getting drunk, fucking the pool boys until the inevitable divorce and she ends up with a decent payout, rinse repeat. Now, she has to travel for diplomatic shit, stand by the side of someone she loathes for events and photo ops, and has to do the usual “first lady” campaigns…doing more work in the first 6 months than she’s done in her entire life up to that point. To give you an idea of how much effort she puts into it, Michelle Obama’s campaign was Be Better. Hers was Be Best.

        But if he wasn’t president, she wouldn’t have to spend as much time with him, so there would be no reason for divorce…

            The Wikipedia page says they killed about 1000-2000 civilians during 16 years of drone strikes. Is that what you mean then? And the real numbers are likely much higher.

              It’s commonly used as a criticism of Obama to point out that his approval of drone strikes was significantly higher than any president before or since. This data point is a bit shaky however, because drone strikes weren’t nearly as prevalent during his predecessor’s terms as drones weren’t as technologically advanced as they were during his terms, and due to the fact that the Trump admin changed drone strike approval processes to no longer need presidential approval.

          I never said that. He doesn’t have to be as bad as Trump to be sentenced at a hypothetical nurnberg like trial for his crimes against humanity. Biden, Trump and Obama all make the cut. It’s not about comparing these blood soaked monsters amongst each other. It’s about pointing out how weird it is to obsess about how wholesome his marriage supposedly is. Yes, the thousands of dead civilians from drone strikes are enough to condem him. Lybia alone would be enough too.
