Suggesting that Americans inject disinfectants into their veins. Declaring that people believe he’s been treated worse than Abraham Lincoln. Claiming wind turbines are killing whales. Saying environmental regulations are forcing people to flush their toilets “10 times, 15 times as opposed to once.” Over the course of Donald Trump’s 77 years on earth, he’s had a lot of uniquely bizarre comments come out of his mouth. That streak continued over the weekend, as he reportedly suggested to a group of billionaires that Joe Biden had literally shit on a piece of White House furniture.

From the original NY Times article quoted by Vanity Fair:

Mr. Trump blamed his successor, Mr. Biden, for the influx of migrants and mocked him and aides for what Mr. Trump said were bad decisions made around the Resolute Desk, which has been used by two dozen presidents.

“The Resolute Desk is beautiful,” Mr. Trump said. “Ronald Reagan used it, others used it.”

He then denigrated Mr. Biden, sounding disgusted, according to the attendee: “And he’s using it. I might not use it the next time. It’s been soiled. And I mean that literally, which is sad.”

The attendee who witnessed the moment said that dinner guests laughed and that Mr. Trump’s remark was interpreted as the former president saying that Mr. Biden had defecated on the desk.

    For multiple reasons, and not just that he is happy to shit on this country and on democracy itself, I am now 100% convinced Donald Trump took a literal, physical dump on the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office during his own presidential term.

    Since everything he says is projection, one can only assume some poor aide had to change his diaper on that very same desk.

      This is literally projection, now that people know he doesn’t take care of his hygiene (shocking).

      According to a former GOP representative describing the odor:

      “It’s not good. The best way to describe it… take armpits, ketchup, a butt and makeup and put that all in a blender and bottle that as a cologne.”

    That means the he probably took a shit on the desk. It’s standard playbook with all them—you accuse the opposition of doing the freaky shit you’re actually doing.

    But to be fair, it’s very likely both of them wear diapers, so there could have been an accident, eh?

      Yup. Trump definitely pooped on the Oval Office desk. He’s probably shiting on desks right now in Mar a lardo

      Yup. He absolutely shat that desk. No doubt whatsoever.

      That shit didn’t just come out of nowhere (if you’ll pardon the pun); he’s throwing it at Biden because he actually did it himself.

      In addition, the rest of the article goes on to cite various instances through the years of Trump’s overconcern with toilets and personal waste as symbols of domination and power. It’s not just this one statement, it’s many acts along the same lines.

      So even if I could ever doubt Trump did this – and I cannot, lol – the fact remains that most people do not weaponize their own waste at all (!!!) yet here’s Trump acting throughout his life as though he could and would.

      And then there’s the rumored “pee tape” of him enjoying some hookers and golden showers in a Russian hotel room, lol.

      Trump absolutely shat on that desk. He’s just stupid enough to think anyone believes the pointing finger when it’s just himself alone with the constant references to waste.

    As we all know, Trump and his MAGA heads are masters of projection. Go figure what this means for “A president shat on the desk in the Oval Office”.

        Maybe. I think Trump probably did it when he lost and realized all his shitty coup plans weren’t going to work and he was going to have to leave.

        As departing US presidents have the tradition of leaving gracious letters on that same desk for new incoming presidents to find – well, the decent ones, anyway – I think Trump might have literally shat on the desk to act as his own “letter” that last day, but someone got to it and cleaned it up before it could have its desired effect.

    So it’s tradition for presidents to leave a letter to the next president. Do we now have a clue what Trump left for Biden?

    I know it’s been said a bunch of times now, but I’ve never been so convinced of anything in my life as much as I’m convinced this means Trump shat in the Oval.

    Says the incontinent fuckwit lol. What did he have to gain from saying this? He’s just confirming what we already know. Which is the oval office smelled like a toilet and body odor during his pathetic reign on a daily basis.
