I guess like the other thing I'm really enjoying about the Trump indictments is like since the mugshot has come out I really liked how I don't know like a certain tranche of the like conservative media has decided that Urban black culture is now not totally pathological and in his in fact cool as hell I just read the I know you've seen these tweets Trump became a hood billionaire overnight He's now got the street cred of Big Beach and Larry Hoover. That mug shot is going to make him have the respect of every gangster and hustler in the hood. Y'all have no idea.

I heard two brothers walking down the street calling him there. But Fanny Willis has no idea what she's done. And I just, I love the way they're just, they're leaning into it. We've always heard that the Trump's gangster, but the mug shot thing now is like, they're really saying they're like, oh, like, this heard that the Trumps gankster, but the mugshot thing now is like, they're really saying they're like, oh, like, this is gonna, I mean, like, in a way, this is not at all condescending a racist. They're like, oh, now that he's indicted felon,

this should up his share of the black vote. I mean, like, if you did this in 1999, I know we always say, like, you know, things move forward, but like, if you did this in 1999, you would have to like resign from everything, every position you held. Like, people would like be like this, that's the most racist thing like anyone's ever said. Like the implication that if like black people see anyone got arrested, they're like, oh, he's right. Like, if they see like Dennis Raiders mug shop, they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's

my dog. It is amazing that the way that conservatives have talked about this stuff has not evolved an Iota since Boreth came out. Once again, it's such a prophetic film. That was about a fucking Democrat. Another, another, another roll call from the, uh, the, the Trump mug shot. This is a Jesse Waters on Fox. He says, I say this with an unblemished record of heterosexuality. He looks good. And he looks hard. He looks hard. Okay. But find unblemished. Uh, what

is it going to make of the actual Trump mug shot though because honestly I thought he was serving. He was serving. He like I I knew is either going to be like um you know he does a thumbs up and smiles or like tries to look like badass. I think you should have gone with the smiling. I agree. I completely yeah. Yeah. He looked like he looked like a manuel. He looked like a really fluffy Dallas cat. Maybe it just like I got those on the brain, but I see within seconds, I found one that looked exactly like him because he's not like only to his base. Does do you see him and think like, oh, he looks badass. Like, the, the Jesse Waters thing reminded me of like,

remember the, when he wore a mask one time and like all those guys are like, this is the most fucking badass a mask has ever looked. He looks awesome in a COVID mask. Yeah, COVID mask. Oh, right. It would be funny if it was awesome in a COVID mask. Yeah, COVID mask. Oh, right. It would be funny if it was just like a Halloween mask. Like a Frank Stein,

that would get shitty, Frank Stein, I would make a great cool. A great Frankenstein for Halloween. Yeah, the thing about the, the smiling thumbs up that I think would come off is even more powerful is like, I don't, I don't take this seriously.

I don't care about this and nothing's gonna happen. So, you know, I'm having it. It's truly like the thumbs up smiling style. That's what I was expecting. But I think clearly like he had people in his ear who were like, yeah, okay, he had like the Kim Kardashian DMV glam squad before that fucking mug shot, too. So he was thinking, he was thinking 10 steps ahead there, too. You know, like that'll look good in the mug shot. But I think he had his like advisors in his ear saying that like you need to communicate what a dire moment this is for our Republic and our Constitution. But like it would have been a lot cooler

if he was just like big smiles thumbs up. Yeah, they're trying to get him on this like, you know, you need to be like Andrew Tate. You need to do dark MAGA. And this is a Ducormon Institute guys are probably throwing in this shit. Yeah, I do, I do think though that like, you know, what the fuck's that, though? You're probably throwing in the shit. Yeah, I do think, though, that like he had, obviously,

everyone in that sheriff's office, like voted for him. Yeah, we know that because they're cops, but like also because they like clearly led him to contouring before. Yeah. And they were like, oh, you're 215 pounds. Yeah, it sounds good. Yeah. Oh, my God. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

They let they booked him with the 215 pounds is, Oh, that makes that makes him more of a flight risk than anything because it's like if you're looking for a 215 pound man and you see him, like, you don't know what he is, but you're like's not two fifteen like I know that like the only way he could be two fifteen is like a we like a hollow bone situation.
