I believe trumps current setup is:
Golden Samurai Helmet (Legendary)
Recruit cutlass (Common)
Qatar 747 for his mount (Epic but it was limited time event so might as well be legendary)

I feel like he got some cool gloves too but so far he's going for one of those min max meta sets that look mish mashed but are best in the game.

He was also gifted an "Ottoman Empire rifle" from Bulgaria. (I have to assume it's a boyliya, since journalists suck and no picture or proper description seems to exist.)
That's at least an enchanted Uncommon.

I think it honestly goes beyond that.

There is a fucking dark mindset underpinning a lot of the crazier lefty elements out there. I first started noticing it in the SJW community on Tumblr, and I called it out for what it was back then, but essentially, they've replaced the conventional definition of racism with one where only one race can possibly be guilty of it - where they feel the correct solution to racism that happened ages ago is more racism, but by the right people this time.

If you look past the people who were doing that back then, cursory analysis of them showed you the real reason they were doing it: It wasn't just them being taught shitty lessons - shitty lessons are a problem but they do not, in and of themselves, create shitty people like these. Instead, it was the pathological need to be morally superior to someone. It shows a stunning level of insecurity and immaturity, existing solely to allow the shittiest possible people to be dicks to others with the full support of their conscience

Lucifer mindset. I'm not that religious but this is the exact same mindset behind Lucifer's rebellion.

What I learned from leftists:
A few research grads or associates taking a job offer in France and insisting on being called “refugees” are refugees.
White people escaping a collapsing decaying society where crime is rampant, and enter waving American flags and showing genuine grace, are not refugees.

Aren't we forgetting the Golden Pager?

Single use screen clearing AOE attack against cultist type enemies.

 

[Nefarious Elliot]

That's the joke. Everyone who says addiction would go away with "support programs" can't point to a single example of this working anywhere on the planet. We have cities spanning the gamut of cultures, political orientations, and races, and the number of cities that have found a reliable way to get the local addict population clean is Z E R O.

There is one "support program" that may see some success...

You ever met an adult Young Earth Creationist? There is no amount of physical, visible evidence that will convince them otherwise. Everything you find, down to the genetic similarity between chimps and humans, the massive distance light has to travel to reveal galaxies that went extinct billions of years ago, has an explanation, and even if it doesn't, will be casually dismissed. That's how lefties are with "brown good, white bad."

Fossils as you call them were meticulously placed all over the world by the Vatican in the 17th century.

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

In high school we all had to write essays about how it would have felt to be one of those poor saintly god's chosen being hunted down by the subhuman goyim for the sin of being better than everyone else.

I got this assignment and my story was how I'd join the local armed resistance and fight. My teacher did not like the amount of violence, but allowed it because I wasn't the only person who took an active, armed resistance approach. Almost everyone else wrote about how they'd do their best to protect their families and neighbors, or took more passive resistance approaches. Some of them basically imagined taking an MLK-type stance, which was as darkly funny then as it is now.

Interestingly, the other students who took the same armed resistance approach as me were black and Asian.

Are you just PURPOSEFULLY being obtuse? Because even as a shitpost it makes no sense.

IDK boss I think its a hilarious meme and got some good truth to it, Im like a good bit of what trumps doing and even think the middle east foreign policy is good but strip all your feelings about both sides away for a second

He yells at one guy for showing up to meeting in tshirt, height of disrespect (cause he owes us money)

Goes to another meeting diffrent guy he likes with flip flops and says nothing (got free plane from him)

and dont give me the whole "they cant cause culture or something"


these guys figured out shoes and one even stumbled into a tailor it seems, what luck!

 

[The Ugly One]

its crazy to see its like they personally see him as a fellow Arabian king or some shit.

Trump acts like a man who's in charge, not like some weaselly faggot who answers to so many masters that he's afraid to speak his mind.

The Emir of Qatar is wearing a traditional thobe & bisht, which is ceremonial dress for formal occasions and worn to show respect. It's the Arab cultural equivalent of a dress suit. The President of Ukraine is not wearing formal wear; he's wearing casual outdoor wear, which is worn to show that protocol is beneath him.

 

[COME ON OUT YOU RAPIST]

I'm enjoying Trump's recent arc of "wow these Saudis and Arabic people sure are great!", very obviously signaling to Israel that they need to sweeten their dealings with the US.

And they should.

Whenever Trump is in the country, Israelis should be allowed to eat whatever they want.

Yeah, reading Paradise Lost twice in your life decades apart makes someone knowledgeable about Christian theology. - Incidentally, look at what happens when societies secularize; you get things like "Can dogs be transgender" and similar talking points becoming widespread.

 

[Cromwell]

Watching the recent clips of the Saudis greeting trump and all the ways they've been going all out. With the ceremonial chanting and singing with all the swords out and shit. plus the fucking Saudi cavalry personally escorting trump. its crazy to see its like they personally see him as a fellow Arabian king or some shit.
It makes sense though, Trump so far has been like one of the old school Persian kings ( like Cyrus the great of the Achaemenids before Alexander the great conquered fucking everything.) the Kings of the early Achaemenid empire (who were proto-Persians who then became the Muslims) ruled with a policy of "I do not give a shit what you do or who you worship after i conquer you. Just pay your taxes to the king and don't start any retarded conflicts. And if you break those 2 rules you fucking retard, i will find you and fucking kill you."
That way of ruling, plus Trump's love of gaudy fucking gold everything. Trump is more like an old school king than anything we've ever had. And something about that old school shit that the Saudis seem to respect the fuck out of.

Trump embodies something that Newt Gingrich is quoted as saying in one of my favourite books. Now to be clear, what he was directly referring to is the spotty “hands off” leadership of Reagan, where he’d let anyone who could persuade him to control the policy process do so. But what he also hints at, which is so interesting in the context of Trump, is the fact that the president is basically the head of state (which in the UK is the king) and the head of government at the same time. Trump really seems to lean into the head of state stuff these days

It is as if we had unknowingly slipped into operating like a European parliamentary system, with its revolving coalition governments, while our president reigned above it all, a regal symbol of nationhood.

"What you have right now is a constitutional monarchy," asserted Representative Newt Gingrich, a bright Reaganite Republican from Georgia.

"What we've done is we've reinvented Hanoverian kingship without reinventing the parliamentary prime ministership. We have this tremendously nice, likable King Victoria. Everybody likes him but where the hell's Disraeli? or Gladstone? What I'm saying is that in the age of television, we now have the television-series equivalent of rotating prime ministerships."

I don't understand, why would Trump want them to feast on the blood of Christian babies when he's there?

I've seen shitheads on twitter denying the reality of a mountain of evidence that, yes, they very much are being persecuted, yes, this is exactly what fucking happened in Rhodesia, and yes, it's very likely going to end the exact same way. You can post examples of the ANC's bullshit expropriation and constant scapegoating, the EFF having a rally where their literal only talking point is how whitey needs to die, and they will still sit there and tell you to your face none of it is real, and any evidence beyond this you show (going back a decade or so) is just you being a conspiracy theorist.

That's the point. They can never say "Afrikaners are being persecuted but they need to be persecuted to aton for their racism."

They need to deny it, and make YOU participate in the obvious denial. You play them a video of people chanting "Kill the Boer!" and they will say with a straight face. "No, the Afrikaners are NOT being g persecuted or threatened."

This is an old Soviet tactic. Everyone knew The State was lying. It wasn't enough for normies to ignore the lies. Thet had to repeat them and believe them. The more absurd the lie, the greater The State's control over your mind.

Unless you actually think like this, in which case, my condolences

This would be my solution. Lift all restrictions on fentanyl and make killing junkies for South Park level reasons (“he was coming straight for me”) exist at a place where the cops barely bother to write a ticket over it.

I want the whole junkie industrial complex to collapse. No more narcan on taxpayer dollars, no more sober living facilities, no more emergency rooms clogged with ODs

Junkies steal from anyone but their own family and they get shot. Stealing from their own families serves to teach bleeding hearts that they’re fucking retards
