How far is this going to go, I wonder? The right-wing media is desperate to keep Donald Trump looking good to as many Republicans as possible, and keeping the hard core MAGAs on the hook. That’s their bread and butter. It’s getting increasingly more difficult to spin Trump as being okay. He may mock the “91 fake charges” but the fact is that there is a real justice system out there and he is in some peril. He knows that. He can laugh about it all he wants, but he’s in bad shape.
And even something mundane like a football game is not a safe space for Trump any longer. The Iowa v. Iowa State game was a show within a show. There was the football game and then there was the show in the stands where Ron DeSantis shuffled in looking downcast while Trump was trolled by a plane dragging a sky banner “Where’s Melania?” Last month a similar banner saying, “Be likeable, Ron” was flown over the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines.

Back to the football hero. Gee, I wonder why he didn’t just run on the field and show them how to do it?
He just passed gas. You can see it!

Is that Trump’s “I feel the testosterone surging” face? Or is that his, “I hope my diapers hold” face? We see a posturing baboon but the MAGAs, who look through a distorted lens, see Trump as a football superhero. I’m sure some version of this will find its way to a digital trading card. Oh wait, here’s an image from the “love fest.” Can’t you just feel the love?

So much love. All you need is love, right Donald? And in your case, a time machine to go back before all this ever happened. Just by the by, is that how you hold a football? Or is that how you hold a roll of paper towels? Asking for a friend.
If that’s the look of love, here’s the sound of love.

And more. Apparently there’s clips going out with cheers instead of boos. I don’t doubt. Truth is under attack in this country, while lies flourish. Was it Mark Twain who said, “A lie can get half way around the world in the time it takes the truth to get its boots on.”
Only an egotistical tool like Donald Trump would think it a good idea to go to an Iowa game filled with students he wants to deny the right to vote until they’re 25.
Don’t be fooled by the MAGAts overlaying crowd cheers. He got booed. Bigly. 😆 pic.twitter.com/RlVn65ScrQ

This is new to me.
Will tRump cry again after being booed at the Iowa State Football game, or is he getting used to it by now ? One of my favorite moments, tRump smiling to crying in 5 seconds. https://t.co/KUxUiMmexY pic.twitter.com/BE5wmBnhTI

Where’s Melania?
His “athletic roots”??? This is the guy who thinks exercise is bad for you and demonstrates it every day at the links.
If everyone but one person in the stadium gave him the finger, his fascist cult would believe the one and claim he’s the phucking savior. That’s what we’re dealing with. Glad to see and hear some people in white bread Iowa are awake to this TRAITOR!!!
You can fool some of the people, some of the time…..but NOT ALL the people, all the time! RW MEDIA needs to STOP fantasizing/Gaslighting & insulting OUR intelligence! Trump’s NOT going to be President of ANYTHING, ever again!
I live in Southeastern Iowa, and I think the area if not the state is not as solid red as some believe. Several prominent displays of Trump 2024 flags and signs have been taken down. Urban areas seem to be trending more towards the Democrat/liberal side of things. There are still a lot of MAGA cult members, but many of those that were on the fence are now to the left side of it.
When did bullying become an Olympic sport? That’s the only one he has ever been good at and he is at best.mediocre. He needs lessons from Lewis Black or the late Don Rickels.
The person in the left-side photo is not a young Trump. The eyebrow ridges are wrong, the nose is wrong, and the jaw/neck is wider. Also, the left-side person has a relaxed semi-smile, while Trump looks like he’s attempting a Jimmy Cagney imitation (“You dirty rat….!).
