Trump, 79, Stuns With Inability to Flip a Coin: ‘Worst in History’
The president’s bizarre attempt at a coin toss has people talking.
It's so hilarious to watch I had to post this.
Give him a break, it's the first time he actually let go of money.
To be fair, he's probably near even touched a coin before
At least not one that didn't have his face on it
His "business career" is almost entirely made out of failures and bankruptcies, he's very much used to losing shitloads of money. He was a fucking moron long before he became senile.
My favorite factoid, he charged his own "failing" casinos 90K for each floor walkthrough. One way.
Is that a failed business, or was it in fact designed to "fail" so Trump could make a fortune?
I think he's dumb now, but Roy Cohn taught him well (he was also infamous for skipping bills, screwing contractors, and so on)
The most truthful thing I've ever heard him say, even if second-hand, was something Ivanka was relaying in that Born Rich movie....that he pointed out a homeless man and said the homeless man was richer than he was, since Cheeto McPedo was EIGHT BILLION in debt.
That's why he tossed it the way he did, that's how you toss money into a fire. Proper coin flip lands to close, you don't wanna be that close to the money fire.
He was born rich. It's the first time he's handled coins.
Not rich enough, apparently.
lol this will be the official MAGA coin flip style from now on. I really hope they show that on their Trump commemorative coin commercials.
Imagine being a 270lb block of muscle pumped full of testosterone standing this close to a fascist murderer and child rapist and not ripping even one of his limbs off? Talk about a setup for regret.
Remember these are military football players. So 50/50 they are also rapists or fascists.
Are we sure he wasn't just rigging the coin-toss in the most obvious way possible?
I had thought about that, especially since Army won the toss, and the Army shares a "birthday" with Trump. He would be a petty enough removed to fix a coin toss because of that.
But I chased down video of the toss, and I don't think he looked at the coin long enough to acknowledge which side was up. Rather, I think he tossed the coin as if he was tossing it into a fountain. Which is probably how he regards any coin which doesn't have his picture on it.
(You would think he has seen enough football games to know how the coin toss goes. But keep in mind he is originally from Queens, NY, which is Jets territory. One could forgive him for not bothering to really follow the NFL over the years if the Jets were all he got to watch.)
Taking the coin with a pinched left hand, and placing it into the open palm of his right, the president heaved the coin forward, sending it in a feeble, plunging arc. Helpfully, he pointed out where the coin had landed after it hit the ground.
God, that last part made me literally LOL.
If this were Biden, the Faux Cinematic Universe would be calling for impeachment/Amendment 25 over just this alone...
Is it possible he has never flipped a coin, nor ever seen someone flip a coin, that he really doesn't understand the basic intuitive physics behind "flipping" a coin? smh
Yes, it's very possible. It's like how he thinks you're supposed to pat children on the head with Hershey bars at Halloween.
I am once again begging people to not post headlines that start with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.
Honestly, I think it's hilarious that they keep emphasizing his age after years of the bIdEnSoOld BS, even from alleged allies...
Same problem as in 2016. Everyone assumed they’d beat Trump. Their main opposition would be in the primaries, because nobody would really vote for him, right?
Wrong, twice. And as bad as the first term felt, this one has been so much more catastrophic.
MAGA: he makes his own luck 😍
Refs have managed to do this same thing before, but when that happens they re-do the toss.
They knew it was a lost cause and just let it go.
This man truly represents the country he leads
Doesn't represent me
TIL you are a country
What a doofus. He's more doofy than GWB
I used to think GWB would be the worst President of my lifetime.
Now, I fondly remember GWBs fumbling in comparison.
"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me... you can't get fooled again"
I used to think GWB would be the worst President of my lifetime.
Well, Ronnie Raygun was still in living memory for me, so....while W/Cheney had that Iraq thing, Ronnie Raygun did a lot more damage to this country. And while most people like to add "-gate" to words for scandals, due to Watergate, Iran/Contra was arguably worse.
That might have been media training. Imagine the clips of “shame on me”? The Daily Show would have had a field day.
I genuinly do not give af. Trump is incompetent, and we can all gloat as leftists at his incompetence, but it's his evil which matters. And frankly, he's a very good propagandist.
This clown can't do a LOT of normal things. The only thing he's good at is appealing to morons and grifting.
I thought that ref was about to get on his knees right there on the 50 yard line.
Stuns? I don't think "stuns" is the correct for geriatric Bruisey-hand McShit-his-pants's inability to flip a coin. He often falls asleep in important meetings and goes off on senile rants. So, him not being able to flip a coin seems pretty on point.
Must be the flat feet
This fucking idiot. That had to be on purpose or trolling. You can't possibly be that stupid. Most people learn to flip a coin at what, 5? What else can't this guy do normally? I guarantee when he isn't shitting his diaper, that he wipes back to front.
Bet he picked up that coin right after and pocketed it.
Does he have a job?
bros he tossed that coin like it offended him
It was brown and of a lower denomination?
I'm surprised he didn't insist his face be on one of the sides
Trump does "worst coin flip ever", asked to leave football stadium.
Quite funny for sure.
Eh, it's goofy looking but he had gloves on. I'm all for shitting on this dude but this is kind of nothing.
No, you can flip a coin with gloves on, especially if you are flipping it onto to the ground. Just give it a bit of spin as it leaves.
A more competent human might have even practiced, but practicing is just an acknowledgement that you might not know everything already.
He had gloves on to hide the track marks from his dementia medicine injections.
Yup
Here's a thought, take glove off? Just a thought.
