“Such a beautiful handsome man am I right? 👋 I had to do something mind 🧠you and the clasp wasn’t working🚫. Horrible thing🙅‍♂️ how they, the democrats🥸, wanted windmills🌬️and clasps 🗜️it’s a disgrace😩.

So I had that military🪖 piece of hunk in front of me and I tied him down🎖️. Nice and tight around his veiny neck💪. So handsome😻. 👐”

Imagine getting the highest military decoration from pedo the hutt.

Never mind having to find out what it's like having him paw at you where you can't see him.

This is more an idle question but does anyone know if you can refuse to be given an award in the military? Like if someone thought they were undeserving, didn't earn it, or otherwise was contemptuous could they just refuse. Or is this a mandatory fun day type situation where the military just kinda forces it on folks.

Mostly just curious since as a person I would sooner murder and disgrace myself than receive a medal.

Wanted to make a comment that he is not used to clasps as the girls he prefers don't need a bra yet.

[–] redlemace@lemmy.world 38 points 2 days ago

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

What a fucking embarrasment jfc

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 13 points 2 days ago

Gawd, that was painful. What a loser.

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I'm so confused. What's the mechanism like? How difficult can it be when Biden was able to do it? Is Trump too stupid or too frail to do it? Damn it, I need answers!

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 10 points 2 days ago (2 children)

It's 3 snaps, like a baby's onesie.

To be fair, men don't use snaps - ever. I think the last time I used snaps was on my son's onesie, after changing his diaper. He's 27 now, and hardly ever needs a diaper, lbut I could still handle snaps.

So do you think Trump ever changed a diaper, and thus learned how to operate snaps? Of course not. Just one more example of his profound ignorance of perfectly normal human behavior.

Tell me you don't shop at Western clothing stores without telling me you don't shop at Western clothing stores...

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I mean....trump wears a diaper, but perhaps he has a person to change it for him...

Didn't he import a wife from Epstein for that?

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

The answer is yes.

[–] ravelin@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago

Jesus I thought that handshake would never end!

Finally the guy jerks his hand free.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Oh, this was yesterday, there was another video where he also look like he ties it similarly to another soldier.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I have a lot of experience with clasps by undoing and doing up my partners bras over the years.

But let's be fair, that fat cunt wouldn't have had that type of experience with clasps due to 'his' sexual preferences being for very young girls that don't wear bras, or just grabbing them by the pussy.

(Edit: bugger, bra clasps and preteens have already been mentioned. Leaving my comment up though, for posterity.)

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If Biden or Obama did it, it'd be run 24/7 on every right-wing propaganda outlet And the orange kid-diddler would have tweeted about it 5 times

Instead we get this

Expect the next batch of medals to use Velcro

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 10 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I have confidence that Trump has never seen Velcro, and doesn't know how to use it.

BTW, years ago, we saw a little presentation at Epcot, sponsored by Velcro, and it became very apparent that the entire objective was to convince people to stop calling it Velcro, and call it a Hook & Loop Fastener. Yeah, right, like that's going to happen.

If a corporation allows their trademark to be used as the general name of the item, like Kleenex or Band-Aid, they can lose that trademark protection, and then competing companies can call their products by your company name, so your marketing is also helping your competition.

So Velcro has to be able to convince a judge that they have made serious efforts to protect their trademark, and paying for advertising space at Epcot to do several presentations a day should help a lot.

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We had an Australian colleague back in the 2010s who asked for a band aid during a staff meeting, and everyone just looked at her and said, "Plaster."

I'm trying to think what brand names have become synonymous with their product here (UK). It used to confuse me when I'd read American books and the characters wound talk about "Xeroxing" stuff. It's a photocopier! All I can think of is Sellotape, Tip Ex and Blu tack. I think I'm in a minority by saying vacuum instead of hoover though. How can anyone call a Henry a hoover! That's blasphemy!

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 points 11 hours ago

Roomba

Kleenex

CrockPot

Tupperware

[–] Cenzorrll@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I think this is all Velcro has to do to keep they're trademark. If you think about it, there's not much ends they can do besides the occasional PSA, what are they going to do, sue someone who says Velcro? Besides, I think they kind of enjoy trying to make "It's a hook and loop fastener!" their new slogan.

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And be fake metal, made in China by the lowest bidder, and sold to the US for ten times the price, with a 90% kickback to trump

[–] alexc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

And with his face on it. And is renamed to the “I’m almost as brave as Trump” medal

[–] Bieren@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

Not a clasp. It is snaps.

[–] radiofreebc@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Too bad that isn't on the cognitive tests.

[–] pigup@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Is his gut rubbing the soldier's back

[–] garbagehead@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (3 children)

Neither can anyone I know. Even jeweler staff can't get them on.

[–] Bohne93@feddit.org 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yeah who even needs all that fancy schmancy stuff, all my shoes have velcro and i just use a rope as a belt. Like the founding fathers intended. God bless

[–] GiantChickDicks@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 days ago

Which is why you see this happen so frequently.

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 1 day ago

Zzzzzzz....clasp? Zzzzzzzz....
