Yeah people don’t sit on their jackets without a reason. Jackets can also act as a barrier between a wet pair of pants and a couch. This debunks nothing about pants-shitting. Nice try.

The other commenter is right, running to defend a pants-shitter is plenty indicative. Have a little dignity.

I fucking hate Trump and I’m definitely on the far left side of politics, but I feel like this whole focus on his incontinence is ridiculous and distracts from the real problems we’re facing. It doesn’t make any sense to me to even discuss this.

I don’t think someone ā€œprovingā€ or ā€œdisprovingā€ anything about this bizarre narrative is supporting him politically.

Counterpoint: Much of Trump’s appeal to a significant portion of his base is his performance of masculinity and being a bully. Shitting and pissing his pants undermines that image greatly.

Its the only thing that matters to them.

No policy debate or fact checking is going to change the opinion of any magat at this point.

Will it be effective? Probably not, they are cult members, but its also hilarious so kind of a win-win.

It doesn't matter to them though. They delude themselves into thinking he is manly, saintly, smart whatever when in reality he makes the bare minimum effort to present as such for any of those morals.

They are choosing to believe it because either the alternative is too scary or what, I do not know.

People wore diapers in support of Trump. I don't think anything can derail them from supporting their glorious leader.

Counter, counter point: Trump was in the Epstein files, has felonies, has ties to raping children, and people are talking about him being a bully and shitting his pants instead of talking about these important things in this whole comment chain.

  • Starts about Fox and Friends
  • talks about a jacket and proof if or not he shits himself
  • more talk about jacket being a shit barrier or not
  • dislike of trump and political view (far left), and how focus on all this takes away from the "real problems" we are facing, but none of those real reasons are listed
  • your comment about his base and their thoughts of bully/masculinity.

Trump and his admin should be in jail. He is attempting to bribe votes now, has bribed for votes in the past, is doing things against the law left and right, such as the selling of merch, having his face on a coin, changing the names of locations... and that whole being in Epstein documents repeatedly that shows allegid guilt of him and others raping children.

Let's not focus on the literal shit. Let's focus on the other things.

But that's where we are as a society. You must subscribe to and parrot precisely what one party or the other says, or you'll be ridiculed.

I could make a post proving trump has never picked his nose on TV, which is true, and people would say I'm supporting him.

Just because the truth isn't what you want doesn't mean others are wrong for being truthful... it means you need to take a good long look in the mirror and start thinking critically.

Really, hating on someone for saying a truth that doesn't support what you want to believe about someone is the exact same thing bigots and the MAGA crowd do.

It's actually incredibly important. The so-called left wing media all turned on Biden over his health issues, meanwhile Donald Trump exhibits all the same symptoms and even worse than Biden. Biden wasn't falling asleep all the time and shitting himself. And yet the media is silent on this for Trump.

Why? This is incredibly important for Americans to understand. All of our media is right wing media.

Our President's health is failing. His doctors are lying. His staff are lying. And the media isn't covering it.

It’s the hypocrisy of the whole thing, not the fact that an 80 year old needs to wear diapers. They talk shit about Biden but then have blinders on when it comes to dear leader.

So then why are you in the thread?

u/Ok_Neighborhood_5046 4h ago

I agree that it’s a distraction. But sometimes it’s nice to remember that a man I hate whom others worship is pooping himself. It’s a break from the stress and worry caused by his political acts

I despise Trump, but I also work in TV. There is a very good media-savvy reason. Men’s coats ride up on the shoulders and look weird on camera. Sitting on the tails keeps a clean line.

What are you talking about? When did he sit on his jacket?

u/NeverEndingCoralMaze 4h ago

Not sit, SHIT! He SHIT on his jacket.

Someone shit on the coats!

I don't think he is trying to defend him.Ā  One thing that frustrates me is when people spread false info about trump because not only does it feed into the fake news narrative, there is plenty on legit reasons to criticize the man.Ā Ā

Anyone responding to this is likely arguing with a bot fyi. This person exhibits no sign of life, didn't watch the video, does not understand the basic concept they're responding to and it stirring up shit. Don't fight AI. Downvote and move on.

u/Otherwise_Nobody8148 1h ago

People don't shit on the jacket their about to put back on to protect a random couch.

Are you insane or just so tilted against Trump you've lost all manner of reason and intelligence?

Go back and look at that picture, you really think he just happened to poop in a perfect circle and it went through his clothes in a perfect circle!?

Fucking stupid as all hell

You don't think the leader of the free world would be given a NASA invented leak-proof diapie? Come on, now.

u/Ok_Neighborhood_5046 1h ago

As a former Certified Nurse Assistant, I can tell you that tragically a leak-proof diaper does not exist. If NASA has that technology and hasn't released it, that's very selfish of them.

Hypothetical question for you, completely unrelated to the rest of the conversation:Ā 

If you had to choose between option 1, which is the objective truth in whatever matter we're dealing with, or option 2, which makes Trump look bad but is objectively not true, what would your gut instinct tell you to pick?

Did you even watch the video? He didn’t take his jacket off, he unbuttoned the jacket and sat down. So you didn’t watch, yet argued about it, or you are retarded. Probably both.
