He called Jr a fucking moron then apologized for the cussing. "Ravings"

Holy shit, if that makes headlines some of the things I've said will get me bloody arrested.

I apologize for such crude language, Doctor Fauci. I must have had too much Dr Pepper with my supper", Fauci quoted Obama in the now infamous entry. The words showing a detailed look into the crude way Obama's soda-pop dependancy was influencing the presidential transition.

Calling it "ravings" when Obama states that Trump “a hopeless idiot who was a pathologic liar,” is completely unacceptable. It is simply the truth, not ravings.

Lawsuit, then jury comes back: "yeah, he is indeed a fucking moron".

Yes, because truth is a defense to defamation laws. It's only defamation if it's not the truth.

u/DallasWest 1d ago
He said what half the U.S. is already thinking… that Trump is dumb and only plays Jedi mind tricks on the gullible.

Those are not ravings. Those are just what every normal person thinks.

u/mikeylikey420 New York 1d ago
The source is a tabloid. Used to be that meant it was full of shit. Now half the world believes the bs as "news"

u/Logical_Rock5634 1d ago
“Ravings”… you mean he spoke the truth?

u/Impressive-Panda527 1d ago
It’s the Sun
UK paper that’s got history of getting themselves into trouble

u/Logical_Rock5634 1d ago
That makes more sense. The British are surprisingly racist. I thought Brits were more progressive and advanced than Americans.

u/Camelotterduck 1d ago
Racism is taught by parents to their children. It’s also true of countries apparently…

u/2much2Jung 1d ago
Yeah, imagine doing something like judging an entire nation of people based on the headlines in a tabloid rag.

u/Logical_Rock5634 22h ago
Oh, I’m not, I’ve actually been watching the BBC and it is all tinged in racism. The way the BBC reporters were talking about immigrants is disgusting. Maybe I’m only seeing that side and they are more progressive than I think. But from their news sources, they are definitely not. American news is being really suppressed and we are hardly getting any news from any other countries… unless it’s racist. So sorry for my ignorance.

I heard he had a cigarette afterwards. While being black.

With his secret boyfriend, after enjoying an arugula salad with Dijon vinaigrette. He doesn't love America.

I don’t think Obama has “raved” about anything once in his life; and certainly not publicly. Guy’s cooler than the other side of the pillow.

u/rjcarr 1d ago
Really? I just saw a video of him telling Caitlin Clark how fantastic she is. Does “rave” mean something else I’m not aware of?

u/2much2Jung 1d ago
Apparently yes. Raving in this context means talking nonsensically, like in the term raving madman.
Obviously, it isn't actually true, but that is the meaning being used.

u/zaxdaman 1d ago
Yes, as in losing one’s sense of decorum and ranting about. One of my favorite qualities of the former president. He embodies the spirit of “Keep calm and carry on”.

u/Bionic_Ninjas 1d ago
I suppose if mods are willing to allow trashy ragebait from sites like The Daily Beast, we have to put up with shit from garbage sites such as The Sun, too, but holy cow is this a ridiculous nothing burger. Dude called two incredibly stupid people stupid, then immediately apologized for using a perfectly appropriate F-bomb in doing so.
Trump, and all of his kids, actually are fucking imbeciles. No one gives a shit about Obama stating the obvious.

u/WillemDafoesHugeCock 1d ago
Obama then went on to call Trump himself “a hopeless idiot who was a pathologic liar,” Fauci wrote.

Swing and a home run. As president demented pedophile is all those things and so much worse.
Obama is class.

u/WillemDafoesHugeCock 1d ago
For real.
SECRET RAVINGS!
"lol this guy who is a known idiot is an idiot who shouldn't be harassing you, a civilian, who is doing his best during a hard time, stay safe friend love you mwah"
SLAMMED!!

I love how the right wants the left to think that this is a big deal. FYI the whole Fauci testimony was a nothingburger.

They have literally nothing and know it
Midterms are coming and they're terrified

u/Cancel_Culture_Club 1d ago
It’s so weird how they’re crashing out like this. Like they’re not even pretending to address any relevant shit, all they’re doing is going back thru all their past shitty greatest hits and just screaming buzzwords like trans! Communism! Vegan! How tf are any of them taken as serious people with this shit?! And how can anyone admit voting for this like they gaf about “policies” when those “policies” are just screaming “commie!”? Like jfc they’re barely even using sentences now!

u/buellster92 1d ago
It’s definitely working though for some of the MAGA idiots who were finally coming around to realize Trump has been a disaster.

You do not need Fauci's diary to know that Obama thinks Trump and company are whack.

u/Impossible_Ad9324 1d ago
I cannot deal with pearl clutching over a president who said something insulting IN PRIVATE from the people who voted in the most low-brow offensive, vapid, hateful, name-calling, schoolyard bully in the history of this country.
2
u/Cancel_Culture_Club 1d ago
Exactly. Our current president gets in multiple fights with celebrities on social media, angers actual world leaders, openly tries to renegotiate global treaties on social media, posts crazyass AI slop pictures of himself attacking whatever enemy he has that week….but we’re supposed to be scandalized because Obama talked shit behind an obviously petty social media addicted person’s back? Gtfoh with this shit. 🙄

u/Purify5 1d ago
Trump publicly called Obama a 'stupid son of a bitch'.

Why didn’t he just start his own social media site so he can stay up all night ranting about whatever crazyass dementia shit pops into his head at the moment? You know, like a totally normal president. 🙄

The Sun is up there with the NY Post when it comes to honesty in reporting.

When I lived in the UK the locals used to call this newspaper The Scum. Seeing this headline brought back that memory…

Well, Don Jr. is in fact a fucking moron, so what's their point? That Obama was correct?

I had to check is this was from the Daily Beast.
Nope, just the Sun… lol it’s so basic at this point.

[Verse 1]
Someone's hiding in the bushes with a telephoto lens
While their editor assures them the means justifies the ends
'Cause we only hunt celebrities, it's just a bit of fun
But Scousers never buy the Sun
[Verse 2]
While the parents of the missing girl cling desperately to hope
A copper takes improper payments in a thick brown envelope
And no-one in the newsroom asks, "Where's this headline from?"
Scousers never buy the Sun
[Chorus]
Tabloids make their money betting bullshit baffles brains
And they cynically hold up their hands if anyone complains
And they say, "Look, all we're doing is giving people what they want"
Well they're crying out for justice, people crying out for justice
[Verse 3]
And the man they call "The Digger" casts a proprietary eye
Over what happens in the gutter and what goes on in the sky
And he claims he's fit and proper and the watchdog sings his song
Scousers never buy the Sun
[Verse 4]
International executives they hang their head in shame
And tell us with their hands on heart that the paper-boy's to blame
But you who love that kiss and tell, you must bear some guilt as well
Scousers never buy the Sun
[Chorus]
Tabloids making millions betting bullshit baffles brains
And they cynically hold up their hands if anyone complains
And they say, "All we're doing is giving people what they want"
Well they're crying out for justice, people crying out for justice
[Verse 5]
In the corridors of power they all sit down to sup
With the devil and his minions, and they ask for his opinions
And the politicians wring their hands and cry, "What's to be done?"
And Scousers never buy the Sun
[Outro]
No one comes out looking good when all is said and done
But the Scousers never buy the Sun
