Someone should make a cartoon of Shredder and Krang endorsing Trump.

The villains were cooler than the heroes anyway.

Shredder and Krang combined had the biggest arsenal of any villains in all of the cartoons.

The Trump campaign / RNC, (same thing at this point) has been hacked following a successful phishing attempt.

Ho ho, I thought, haven't they done the training to spot the red flags for phishing messages?

Then I thought about the red flags.

Sudden messages out of hours possibly from someone unexpectedly senior.
Urgent call to action with potential dire consequences.
Poor spelling / capitalisation / grammar, incorrect or misspelled names of colleagues.

How would you tell, like seriously. You'd have to check every single communication by other routes. Trump would put up with that once or maybe twice then he'd throw a fit and you're fired.

If you're working for a Trump organisation of any kind you're wide open.

Not surprised, many of those running the Trump campaign are out of touch boomers who are the most likely to fall for phising attempts.

Don't know if anyone has been observing, but even many hardcore Right Wingers are unsatisfied with how the poorly the Trump campaign is being run.

Nick Fuentes and his Groyper Movement have declared a meme war on the Trump Campaign and their hashtags have overtaken Truth Social. The aim is to save Trump from the GOP Establishment which is making him lose.

Mark my words, the GOP Establishment are making all the wrong decisions, and only they are terrible enough to make Trump lose even after the assasination attempt gave him a popularity boost. And when he loses, they will immediately throw him under the bus.

I don't overall disagree. He needs to go on the attack on policy, period. Going after Kamala's race and stuff is silly when there is so much better ammunition.

All previous versions of the Turtles were only around for George Bush Sr. and Bill Clinton's presidency from the 80's-90's. I wonder what they would think about those presidencies.

Can't wait for his meltdown after he loses again to a literally who candidate, just because anyone on the fence just wanted someone that wasn't senile.
That's interesting. A lot of those Red Pill guys were big on Trump back in the day. So they're now abandoning him too, huh?

Among Tumblr circles of DBZ or whatever the hell he or it walks through elsewhere. Sure. Probably.

It is weird how age creeps up on people when they're in their 70's. You look at both Trump and Biden from even just 5 years ago and they were both full of more energy than they are now. I guess once you hit your late 70's or early 80's you're basically on your last legs. Age hits you fast when you're on your last years.

Makes me worried for Harrison Ford.

Harris is still building support, none of us expected her to beat Trump's established support right away. But she is making remarkable progress. Trump is furious about it. He's writing fanfiction about Biden wanting his place on the ticket back on Truth Social.

Her numbers are only going to strengthen while Trump's will only go down. He's already gotten all the support he can possibly get, anyone not won over by him alerady is a lost cause. And he's actually shedding support, some going to Kennedy. Kennedy may well by Trump's Ralph Nader. Gonna be so sweet to see.

Honestly, they'd only support Trump if he started some sort of sewer-flushing-out program, or a anti-mutant program or if instead of curbing funds over to other countries like Biden, he was curbing them towards Technodrome repairs.


I'm still angry at when Americans were hurting most from CoVid, we wouldn't have gotten the second stimulus check unless a huge part of it went to some other country first.
