I have never once called my dog “sir”. This is a sensationalized headline to the maximum.

Trump stood up to early and a judge, politely, asked him to sit back down. Trump did so without bitching.

This actually made the news.

Edit AND NOW ITS A TOP STORY HAHAHAHAA

To be fair Trump doing literally fucking anything that someone other than Vladimir Putin asked him to do, without bitching about it, is incredibly newsworthy. In fact I’m not sure it’s ever happened before.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world -3 points 7 months ago

So....thats why we are seeing this as a news story? The title is just a red hearing to lead us to how trump didn't complain during a mundane court activity?

[-] lung@lemmy.world 22 points 7 months ago

Man must be sweet for Trump's pr team who can just take the day off and go suck each other off instead. Another media cycle secured

This is the kind of shit conservatives, rightfully, make fun of us for lol

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 20 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

To be fair, leftists also make fun of you for it too.

If he really was clicking his tongue as he walked out of the court, that’s what my MIL started doing as her Alzheimer’s dementia started getting bad.

TRUMP CLICKED TONGUE! TO TEH FRONT PAGE1! 1

Your dog deserves the title more than Donald does.

I call my cat "madam" kind of a lot. But she's very fancy.

[-] june@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago

I call my cat sir all the time. I also tell him to get a job all the time.

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

When my dog is acting up I tell him he's adopted. Sometimes it backfires though cause he just looks happy at the fact.

[-] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 8 points 7 months ago

Maybe my cat bites me for disrespecting her station. That's a good tip, thank you.

[-] techt@lemmy.world 26 points 7 months ago

Wow do you even respect your dog?

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

You don't have a dog do you?

[-] Kraven_the_Hunter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 7 months ago

You don't? I call mine Mr. Floofers, Señor Flooferson and, around St. Patty's day he wanted to be Shamus O'Floof. None of those are anywhere close to his actual name.

[-] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

After only a few years, my dog has been knighted, has an honorary doctorate, is a king, and occasionally a monsignor. He also has a deep lineage on both the Floofington and Sheddingsworth lines.

[-] livus@mander.xyz 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah from the headline I thought the judge said "sit like a dog" to him.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
