How stupid. We all contribute to climate change! Trump is an embarrassment to the land of the free. Also, the comment he made about his daughter was shameful, and I feel bad for her.
Donald Trump is racist, and the proof is right in front of everyone's face.

No, Trump. It wasn't created by China, and global warming is a serious issue that impacts the entire world.

Did he really say that? I knew he was dumb, but this is a new low.

"Women are the primary victims of war" - Hillary Clinton

Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton (born October 26, 1947) is an American politician, diplomat, and former lawyer who served as the 67th United States Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013, as a United States Senator representing New York from 2001 to 2009, and as First Lady of the United States from 1993 to... read more

Are you serious? In war, everyone - man or woman - suffers and dies. You're probably saying this just because you're a woman. I bet Trump thinks the opposite.

Everybody who is killed in a war is a primary victim of war, not just women. Men matter too.

Ah, I see why she lost the 2016 election now...

"I've now been in 57 states - I think one left to go" - Barack Obama

Barack Hussein Obama II (born August 4, 1961) served as the 44th president of the United States from 2009 to 2017, becoming the first African American to hold the office. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously served as a U.S. senator from Illinois from 2005 to 2008 and as an Illinois state... read more

OOF! He must know there are only 50 states in the US. I'm surprised he was president after that quote.

This just shows how disconnected he was from what the average American knows.

For non-Americans who missed the joke, there are only 50 states in America.

"Facts are stupid things" - Ronald Reagan

Ronald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911 - June 5, 2004) was an American politician and actor who served as the 40th President of the United States from 1981 to 1989. Prior to his presidency, he served as the 33rd Governor of California from 1967 to 1975 and maintained a career as a Hollywood actor and... read more

Ben Shapiro just got destroyed by his big daddy Reagan.

Ronnie, I love ya, but please tell me this is satirical.

I don't think he meant this literally.

"White people don't know what it means to be poor" - Bernie Sanders

Bernard "Bernie" Sanders, born in 1941, is an independent U.S. senator from Vermont who was first elected in 2006 and has served since 2007. He mounted campaigns for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016 and 2020, advocating for policies such as Medicare for All and tuition-free public college... read more

To say something like that is like saying "Apples are green." Not all apples are green.
I have talked about how Black and Jewish people are persecuted, but there are also poor white people. In fact, many of them know exactly what it means to be poor. I hate Bernie!

But multiple statistics show that a significant number of people living on the streets are white. If you walk around New York City, you'll see a homeless person every few blocks, and about 90% of them are white men.

Has he never heard of Appalachia? Has he ever been south of the Mason-Dixon Line? Has he ever met anyone who doesn't live in a gated community?
These are purely rhetorical questions, of course.

"They misunderestimated me" - George W. Bush

George Walker Bush is an American politician and businessman born on July 6, 1946. He served as the 43rd President of the United States from 2001 to 2009 and previously as the 46th Governor of Texas from 1995 to 2000. He is the eldest son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara... read more

They definitely underestimated how bad you were. I can't even go to Iraq on vacation anymore because of you.

I could picture Michael Scott saying this.

Don't misunderstand his grammars.

"Atheists are not Americans" - George H. W. Bush

No, but a lot of them are Usonians - the nationality of the United States. "American" could refer to anyone from any country in the Americas. The fact that "American" has become synonymous with people from the US is idiotic when it should be "Usonian."

His death was sad, but this statement makes me angry.
Look, I don't know if I should be Christian or Atheist, but I guess I should chop myself in half, and one half should get deported.

I don't understand how you could say that in a country that supposedly promotes freedom of religion.

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman" - Bill Clinton

That's the easiest lie ever caught from a politician. Imagine using "that" and "did not" to sound more believable.

"I think that gay marriage should be between a man and a woman" - Arnold Schwarzenegger

Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger is an Austrian-American actor, filmmaker, businessman, investor, author, philanthropist, activist, former professional bodybuilder, and former politician.

He is best known for his iconic roles as the T-800 and Terminator in the Terminator series, Douglas Quaid in Total... read more

What he meant is that he doesn't accept homosexuality, but it came out in a comically backward way.

Was he trying to make a joke? If so, that's quite funny.

Does he not understand how gay marriage works?

"America is great because America is good" - Hillary Clinton

Why is America great?
Freedom
Capitalism
Opportunity
Right to bear arms
Freedom of speech
Freedom of religion
Oldest constitution still in use today.

America is great, but that's a very vague reason. There are numerous other actual reasons why America is great.

Not wrong, but a terrible reason why it's "great."

"My father gave me a small loan of a million dollars" - Donald Trump

Trump has his flaws, and greed is one of them. This quote shows greed because a million dollars is a huge amount, yet he sees it as small. He always wants more money, and greed is one of the seven deadly sins.

"A small loan of a million dollars." A million dollars is a lot, and he called it "small." That's why I dislike Trump.

Is this and the groceries quote jokes/satire? They're cartoonishly out of touch.

"Hell, yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47" - Beto O'Rourke

"She does have a very nice figure. I've said if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her" - Donald Trump

Ivanka does look nice, but you do realize that you're supposed to date peers only. Trump is 75 now, and Ivanka is 39. These are very different generations.

I heard this one before, but it still shocks me every time I read it.

For those not following politics, Ivanka is his daughter. That quote is creepy.

"Pokemon Go to the polls" - Hillary Clinton

Pokemon Go is loved by many, and she was just trying to make a reference to make her rallies more fun and engaging.

I love that game, and she was just making a reference.

Trying to be hip and cool, I see, for the kids.

"I would have made a good Pope" - Richard Nixon

Richard Milhous Nixon was the 37th President of the United States, serving from 1969 until his resignation in 1974. He is the only U.S. president to have resigned from office. Nixon had previously served as the 36th Vice President from 1953 to 1961, and prior to that, as a U.S. Representative and Senator... read more

A Presidential Pope is necessary for America's future.

"We had no domestic attacks under Bush. We've had one under Obama" - Rudy Giuliani

*Cough* 9/11 *cough*

"There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again" - George W. Bush

"Republicans understand the importance of bondage between a mother and child" - Dan Quayle

So do Democrats. This has nothing to do with politics.

"Stand up, Chuck, let 'em see ya" - Joe Biden

He was telling this to Senator Chuck Graham, who was in a wheelchair.

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is" - Bill Clinton

William Jefferson Clinton (born August 19, 1946) is an American politician who served as the 42nd President of the United States from 1993 to 2001. Before that, he served as Governor of Arkansas. As a Democrat aligned with the "New Democrat" centrist movement, he enacted policies reflecting a "Third... read more

"Poor kids are just as bright as white kids" - Joe Biden

Ah, a quote from stinky Joe. That statement makes one sound racist because it generalizes white people as the standard for intelligence, which is wrong. Generalizing in this way is harmful and not what anyone should be doing.

Joe Biden only got elected because he was against Ronald McDonald Trump.

He means white supremacists. Kids, no offense to them, are not yet adults.

"Billionaires shouldn't exist" - Bernie Sanders

And this is the problem with the far left. Billionaires, as corrupt as they are, are part of the backbone of America. Inflation has made it so that plenty of movies have earned $1 billion or more.
Also, I'm pretty sure that if Bernie were president, all the riches would move to Saudi Arabia.

No surprise he said this. Socialism wants to "eat the rich." Sanders is a socialist. I am not.

"I love California. I practically grew up in Phoenix" - Dan Quayle

"I am not a crook" - Richard Nixon

"We know there are known knowns. There are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns. That is to say we know there are things we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns - the ones we don't know we don't know" - Donald R

Actually, this is pretty logical. I understand what he's getting at. It's just confusing at first. Read it slowly.

This might seem illogical, but deep down, it has a lot of logic. Don't know why.

This is what happens when you "KNOW" too much.
