Tired of "Shitbag"? OK OP, I get you. I try to vary up my insults, like, "Fuckface McToupee", "The Casino Bankrupter", and "Slumlord Millionaire"

The more I think about this thread the more physically angry it makes me. Imagine the amount of privilege you need to have infesting your brain to make you think insulting a murderous dictator is some kind of breach of decorum.

idk if the reaction in this thread is because they think the thread titles are super rad or if they're reacting to the idea that people should stop calling Trump names in general.

It's the latter. Is calling him a shitbag something that actually makes anyone laugh? Probably not, but it clearly gives some small catharsis to the people that choose to do it, and well, he is absolutely a shitbag so who the hell cares. The idea that someone would be offended enough to make a thread over it, to dare to tone police others for crudely insulting Trump of all people given all the shit he's pulled, it's utterly baffling. OP frankly needs to get over it.

But seriously, just lmao at trying to shame people over decorum, the privilege one must have

At least Americans should refer to him as "my President" since you guys elected him, as I am not American or live there I will refer to him as racist, douchebag, piece of shit or anythinf I find fitting for him as a person.

I for one can't imagine the person who unironically calls him 'President Trump' in normal conversation and has been paying at least a little bit of attention the last few years. I know i know nobody like that.

Maybe he should stop doing things that would make a lot of people want to call him a shitbag. This is not because of a mere difference of opinion here. His administration is objectively awful. He doesn't deserve any respect because he hasn't done anything to earn it.

Nah, dude interns children in camps, is responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans through his mismanagement of hurricane relief and gun violence, is a racist, a sexist, a homophobe, a transphobe, a criminal, and a manipulator. Shitbag is apt.

That's not true. Showing some decorum (at least) in the thread title is what I'm asking for.
But why? You still haven't adequetly explained why. You think some moderate will see people being mean to Trump and vote Republican? I mean I guess kids and cages, corruption, sucking up to dictators, disregard for the constitution, the law, the free press (1st amendment) and his near daily racial tirades wasn't enough to sway them.

No, it was the liberal being mean to Trump that really decided their vote.

Or is it that people calling Trump what he is, shit, tingles your sensibilities?
Please explain why Trump isn't shit and therefore shouldn't be called what he has shown time and time again that he is?

When it's in the thread title it looks kind of immature.
Like you couldn't even contain your outburst until you got into the body of the post. It's weird.

Just use the title of the article and call him a shit stain under the quotes from said article.

So basically, I don't care about decorum but titles like that is like thread title vomit, it's sloppy

I can understand, OP. I mostly find it cringe inducing seeing people refer to Trump with these silly names. Similar with people who refer to GAF as "the old site/place". But to each their own, just suck it up.

Why would you list all of Trumps strengths and most respectable traits as some kind of negative?

Isn't that all reason for showing more respect, not less?

Trump is a cunt by default.

Adding an insult next to his name just feels natural, although I wish there was a little bit more variety.

Given what myself and many others had to put up with Obama being called during his tenure (and he was never anything but classy)...nah.

Because its upset him reading the word shitbag while browsing the frontpage of etcetera.

That's it.
I thought users had to be at least 13 to use this site? did that change? We got little kids here now that can't handle the swears?

Well I know I swear a shit ton. You just know this dude has to have me blocked.

Calling him anything other than his name sands the edges off of who he is and what he does, relegating him to a joke. It's immature and helps sanitize the actual danger Trump wields. Look him in the face and call him by his true name, like responsible adults who understand the gravity of the situation.

I just wanted to note that in addition to all the heinous crimes he's committed while in office the man is also a serial rapist
