What a genuinely weird thing to do.

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 93 points 2 months ago

It's beyond a meme now. It's just the only way to describe him.

The context was that it was after two medical emergencies at the town hall I guess. It's still weird but there's a reason it was this derailed.

[-] usernamesAreTricky@lemmy.ml 62 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Still doesn't really explain it. Before he just said to stop asking questions, they had changed the format to just have a speaker ask him questions after resuming from the medical emergencies. He just gave up on it after only a few questions for no obvious reason

[-] GottaKnowYourCHKN@lemmy.world 47 points 2 months ago

The obvious reason is that he's not qualified to answer questions so he just avoided them altogether.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

He's tired? He sure looks like it.

The reason is because his brain is mush.

This is worse than..."Please clap," by a mile. Jeb was making a joke, but it killed his chances. This should 100% kill his chances at winning......but it won't. This race makes no sense....

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

That makes no more sense than without context. A regular person would resume the town hall after the emergencies passed, or dismissed everyone. Keeping people there and playing random somes for twenty minutes is the action of a child or an idiot.

[-] bassomitron@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

So... why wouldn't he just continue afterwards, like what happens at any other public event that has isolated medical emergencies? Or even cancel/reschedule? Heh.

[-] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 26 points 2 months ago

Trump is just trying to stay ahead of the game. US politics are very much vibes based. Trump is going to the next level by literally vibing on stage. Who needs a health care plan when you've got vibe. And he is genuinely weird because that's the Republican vibe, his weird vibe is appealing to his base.

He's trying his hand to become a disk jockey because he realized he can just call himself "DJ DJ"

[-] MimicJar@lemmy.world 51 points 2 months ago

Damn, that's a great idea.

New plan, we all still vote for Harris, but DJ DJ gets to play the victory party.

(And then he still goes to court, is found guilty, and locked up. DJ DJ in J.)

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 months ago

Da Jail, so DJ DJ in DJ

how many musicians sending in cease-and-desist letters again?

[-] assembly@lemmy.world 35 points 2 months ago

I’m guessing it’s down to Ted Nugent and kid Rock.

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 months ago

When I occasionally hear kid Rock on the radio, all I can think about is what a loser he is needing his daddy's car dealership money to get him out in the rap scene.

How many Detroit rappers self fund a cd release that was able to sell 14000 copies? That is a lot of money in the 90s.

Fucking implode already.

[-] errer@lemmy.world 54 points 2 months ago

This dumbass is in a statistical tie with his opponent. Blows my mind.

[-] Peruvian_Skies@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 months ago

It would blow my mind even if his opponent had zero qualifications. The fact that she's actually competent and charismatic just adds to the surreality of the situation.

I swear the guy is just limit testing at this point

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

He has none. The test is for the corporate news. So far they’ve been failing with flying colors.

If you're a Republican Voter against Trump, but you're still going to vote Republican, then you're not really against Trump are you?

[-] cranakis@reddthat.com 47 points 2 months ago

And the crowd stood there for hours before, waiting on him to show. Did he take any questions at all or just all his shitty playlist and fainting? This guy is pathetic.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

That's kind of on them for being stupid enough to go to a trump event.

I really want to hear the room chatter that was happening 5 minutes in. Surely after like 15 the sorts of people there would have been like 'ok we're vibing with the supreme leader listening to music, this is cool too' but after 5 minutes there had to be some confused discussion that would be really funny to hear.

[-] Hikermick@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Watch the video on YouTube. Some in the crowd seemed to be trying to get riled up but besides YMCA the music was very mellow, very low energy. Do not trade mix tapes with Donald Trump

[-] GreatAlbatross@feddit.uk 40 points 2 months ago

It's like if you went to church, and the vicar said:
"You know what? I don't fancy delivering this sermon with moral guidance. Lets just sing 10 hymns in a row."

[-] IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

... Y'all never had that happen?

"The Lord has other plans for the service today, so we're going to continue in this state of worship."

Can I just say I'm happy there's a section of Republicans that think he needs to go, and are actively pushing him out?

The entire party isn't a hive mind i.e sharing one mind.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago

Not a big enough section. He won the primaries by so much that there might as well have been no other options.

The real question is are those Republicans still going to vote for him on Election Day.

In all fairness I’d rather listen to music than hear this idiot talk

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 21 points 2 months ago

It was life on twitch as well. I reported the stream for bigotry

[-] Juice@midwest.social 19 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

People are still falling all over themselves to vote for this turd; to buy a huge stars and stripes decal of him and stick it on the back window of their Ford Raptor next to their Three Percenter decal. Buy a huge flag that says Trump 2024 FUCK YOUR FEELINGS and hang it on a flagpole by the front door to their house, on the street with kids riding their bikes outside.

And there's an ever growing uncertainty about whether or not this meatball is going to actually win or not.

Isn’t listening to music something that humans do?

[-] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 21 points 2 months ago

Well, not in this particular way, no. It's like your boss call you for meeting and instead of discussing business, he listen to music 30min straight.
