    Honestly, while the humor and memes might seem amusing, it’s important to recognize that this is precisely what they want. By making the situation seem ridiculous, we risk diverting attention from the serious and substantial allegations against Trump.

    We shouldn’t allow them to manipulate the narrative and trivialize the issues at hand. Their intention is to downplay the gravity through memes and laughter, while the actual impact on global democracy is a significant concern.

    Stay focused on the real issues and their implications.

      No. Memes brought him to power, but they were all deceived. For memes only serve one purpose: The Lulz. You can ride the memes but you cannot predict where it will dump you.

    Welcome to “hate the guy”.

    You are told to hate this guy.

    Then you hate him.

    It’s great.

    Next week on “hate the guy” we’ll hate some other guy.

    That will be great too.

      Riiiight we hate this guy because we’re told to hate him, not because of all the horrible things he’s done and said.
