If they would've grown up in a sane county, no one would know who the broke rapist who sits in jail and the egg farmer's helping hand was.
Is that film-a-dead-guy Paul, or fake-boxer Paul?
Those are different people? /s
Trump should demonstrate his support for by getting his face bashed in by a black boxer.
I'm neither black, nor a boxer but I'm available.
If a group of people states that they don't condone violence and don't accept responsibility for this, but offers to crowdfund legal defense for this, is that criminal?
I'm just asking questions.
What can Jake Paul's credibility among far-right people be after a Black person broke his face? How could Paul protect MAGA women and children from the horde of non-whites if he couldn't even defend himself?
I wouldn’t nominate Jack Paul to be a gong farmer… actually I take that back. That’s exactly what he should be doing.
Im kinda conflicted. I really hate his policies but im kinda impressed he can be so loud and proud at his age and retain his base. I notice a lot of his base are now up for doing those things to. So its no longer being shamed the way it used to.
I really thought Jake Paul would dissapear from public perception after the suicide forest incident but instead its always getting fucking worse with that guy. Gonna piss on his grave.
Jake and Logan Paul are the archetypical rich kids who grew to be narcissistic and functionally sociopathic.
Those two assholes would never shy away from the spotlight. And the dumbfuck iPad kids who grew up idolizing them remain as their loyal incel fanbase to this day.
Also, not that it matters because they're basically the same person, but that was Logan Paul who did the Suicide Forrest video.
Which one got their jaw broken?
Bust the other guy's jaw, so we don't have to ask that question.
At :20 you can see the fear in is eyes as he's about to just eat the right hook. Glorious shot.
The suicide forest one is Logan Paul. Jake Paul is the one who got his jaw smashed
I literally refuse to learn the difference between them
I'm sorry I even know who they are.

Not gay at all.
100% not the gay national anthem.
Reality has become a fucking cartoon.
It always was. But thanks to information technology, everyone now has a front row set to the clown show.
Every time I think America has hit rock bottom, Trump pulls out the jackhammer and tries to dig deeper.
Surly a Trump endorsement means political death nearly everywhere, no?
Sir, I hate to disappoint, but you've actually crossed into the timeline where politicians in the next decade will actually compete at how many babies they can eat at one sitting. The mask is off....
Maybe you haven't checked the polls lately.
The president had an 83% approval among Republicans, a 3% approval among Democrats and a 28% approval among independent voters, as well as a 48% approval among men and 28% approval among women. The survey also found that 53% of voters oppose military action in Iran, 40% support it and 7% are undecided.
83% approval from his base. Crazy. The rich boomers LOVE war.
Another poster made a great point that, however well Trump does and continues to do in polls of his base, that support isn't necessarily transferrable to other candidates. And indeed, often it's counter intuitively counter productive.
That's the trend. An endorsement might help in the Primary, but it's death in the General.
After the Midterm bloodbath, MAGA candidates will understand that Trump is a liability, and will not be seeking Trump's endorsement. We might even see anti-MAGA Republican campaigns.
Buddy I can tell you haven't been to the south recently
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I seem to see more of these types of stories than the opposite.
Too many Trump aligned candidates seem to win, but I seem to see candidates lose when Trump vocally endorses them. To wit, Hershall Walker.

About 1/3rd of the US is still vehemently supporting Trump.
Don't underestimate how massive (nor incredibly fucking stupid) the cult is.

Just when you think things couldnt possibly any dumber.
Oh...we haven't seen Ted Nugent yet.
GWB's "miss me yet?" merch but with the nuge
I was positive this was going to be the onion.
... I really wish this was the onion.
What policies do these two people agree on?
Jake Paul doesn't have any policies.
Keep crypto scams going! Also trump doesn't know policy anyway, he just signs what his handlers ask him to.
If you're rich, you should be immune from consequences of any kind
What makes you think that that's relevant? Neither of them run on policy
