Yes I agree with you that it is obviously a bit crazy that it is a president who is posting that video, but he is having fun with it at this point

Oh I'm sure he's "having fun" doing a lot of the bullshit he's doing

 

[Machina]

I find it amazing that he can keep outdoing himself to look worse and worse with each tweet. Wonder when he'll start dropping f bombs lol

Ummm.....

 

[BrutishMrFish]

How does a candidate body slam a reporter and then still get elected?

The same way a candidate was caught on tape admitting to being a rapist and then still got your vote.

Which is to say, there are a lot of people without morals out there. You guys are in good company with the president.

Aw well never mind then! He's having fun.

 

[adj_noun]

It's alternative funny.

 

[kess]

C'mon guys. No matter what your politics, that's hilarious.

 

[plagiarize]

Yeah, because Jon Stewart is currently the President...or is attacking news agencies...or is a massive pile of shit.

Look, I think wrestling is as ridiculous and dumb as the next average American, but I can't fault people for finding entertainment in it.

Hold your tongue.

Yes, wrestling has an embarrassing history

Spoiler

because it has Donald Trump as part of it.

But don't attack something a lot of us love just because Trump tweeted a GIF from it

 

[fluffydelusions]

Ummm.....

I meant in tweets as POTUS

 

[Fox Mulder]

I wonder what Vince thinks about this.

His wife is on Trump's cabinet.

 

[Torokil]

West coast is in for a treat when they wake up

 

[RoKKeR]

... what.

 

[kiguel182]

Wrestling did nothing wrong.

The WWE on the other hand...

 

[vikki]

I cannot wait for Camacho to destroy him.

 

[Dirca]

Someone should do a CNN version of Trump taking a stunner.

Ehhhh....he really didn't take a stunner there. He botched the shit out of it

 

[Mahonay]

I wonder what Vince thinks about this.

He's fucking loving it. Puts WWE in people's mind. Also his wife Linda is in Trump's administration, she's in charge of small businesses. You know, her experience with a small billion dollar family wrestling business...that forcefully crushed all of it's competition.

[SoundofSilence]

Still don't think the POTUS meant this in a dark manner. But with a recent event like that in the news this comes across as insensitive to the max.

This would be plausible if you had been living under a rock for the last 18 months. But under the current context, this couldn't be more wrong.

 

[Vicetrailia]

This is such a right-wing/trump thing with all of their whining and complaining. But the recent context does make this particularly pathetic.

 

[The Main Event]

CNN statement:

CNN got triggered.

Maybe they should stop covering 90% of their time with a panel on a single Trump tweet.

But they won't. Because people are watching.

 

[jelly]

He's met Putin before, or at least spoken on the phone with him before he was president.

Face to face though, it will be telling. Will he look submissive, scared, bro-mance, respectful...yeah not that one, friendly. He is the US President, if he isn't anything but strong, dignified I would worry that he really is compromised. Too friendly, coward, submissive would be alarm bells.

 

[jack_package_200]

Stop responding to diablos991's nonsense

Anyway, its unfortunate that a fucking child is our president.

I love watching those CNNs news. Thanks for covering that, CNN!

 

[Nobility]

actually, it's from a 10 year old Wrestlemania stunt. If you look closely, he's not really punching CNN, it's just a shop

You don't think I can't tell it's a shop...

 

[adj_noun]

West coast is in for a treat when they wake up

The topic abbreviation on the main page is "Trump tweeted out a video of..."

It was a fun few seconds trying to imagine what the hell he could have done this time.

 

[fallengorn]

Ehhhh....he really didn't take a stunner there. He botched the shit out of it

"Great" businessman can't even sell a stunner. Sad!

 

[Machina]

What else are they supposed to cover exactly? The press have been ostracized in the WH and his government isn't passing shit

Pretty sure Trump is just gonna wear a collar for his meeting with Putin.

 

[jvm]

C'mon guys. No matter what your politics, that's hilarious.

No. Not now. Not ever.

Wrestling is like Power Rangers. I thought they were dumb even when I was a kid. Bad acting, plotlines, scripts, and crappy fighting.

Looking past those things as a kid is understandable. Doing it as an adult...

 

[UpUpDownDown]

Wait.

A grown man posting a wrestling gif is bad enough, but a President?..oh boy lmao!!

 

[MikeyB]

That is so goddamned pathetic. The worst part about it is that the dialogue is so partisan. You guys have an objectove problem with an immature and uninformed President who is likely compromised by an enemy state and you are still arguing along party lines. It seems that you are at the point of dehumanizing the other side now.

It is so fucked and I don't see a pleasant way out.

 

[ZeoVGM]

Stop responding to diablos991's nonsense

I mean, he's still able to post so why shouldn't people reply? He seems to mean what he says.

Problem is he leaves the thread when presented with facts.

 

[iMax]

I wish Bernie would cash in his MITB already.

 

[KernelPanic]

How has he "beaten up" CNN lately? It's not like he got anyone fired or anything.

Seems like he's doing this for his supporters on 4chan.

 

[Sanjuro]

You just described video games.

At the very least Fox News absolutely dehumanizes.

 

[teruterubozu]

It's real to me damnit!

 

[Machina]

I wish Bernie would cash in his MITB already.

The entire reason he isn't POTUS right now is because he had less MITB than Wall Street

 

[diablos991]

I didn't leave the thread. I actually changed my mind in this scenario.
Started off laughing at the shitposting of our POTUS. After hearing about that recent bodyslam of a reporter I'm left feeling like this was an insensitive retweet that will do him more harm than good.

 

[Bakercat]

Someone should do a CNN version of Trump taking a stunner.

Goddammit, I came here to post the exact gif and favor lol. Please someone do it.

Off topic, I'm surprised this gif isn't used more on gaf when trump takes a L sometimes.

 

[fantomena]

Dammit. That was my new go-to Trump thread gif.

Gonna go with this instead this time.

 

[dallow_bg]

You just described video games.

Great gameplay never changes.

But yeah, stories are shit.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Encouraging violence by this gif feels like a stretch... Come on.
Nobody is going to body slam a corporation.

CNN will just look even more out of touch by responding in a serious tone towards a gif tweeted in jest.

Sure it's wild the POTUS account posted a funny gif in the first place. Maybe focus on how that portrays us internationally would have stronger legs.

Grow up.

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

Reminder that a few weeks ago the Republican party tried to blame Democrats for the degradation of discourse into violent rhetoric.

 

[Joeku]

Ironically, considering what he sold a bunch of the country, Trump cannot sell for shit.

 

[TTOOLL]

Encourage violence

hahahahhaah

Inappropriate because of his position is one thing, saying this encourages any kind of violence...just lol. It's like saying some people kill because violence in videogames.

 

[Future]

Trump is joking and trolling and it's working

Shit isn't funny man. That's the president of our country promoting violence.

hahahahhaah

Tbh, I don't remember that aside from maybe a couple of house members or senators.
