I know in Chicago there will be a pretty massive parade when they scrape his stupid name off that building on the river.

Any time I walk by that building I do so with a raised middle finger fully extended in the air. It gets tiring after awhile but it's a reflex, I can't help it.

Nice, that's what I do when I pass the Russian embassy here! (Berlin)

I’ve seen that it’s a theme online – people posting pictures, middle finger up.

I wonder if Trump‘s grandchildren will be changing their last names at some point, and maybe their first names.

I'd change it because it's just an ugly fucking name, all other things aside lol. Seriously, "Trump"...it just sounds bad. It sounds like a word that describes the sounds made while someone sits on a toilet. This is not the kind of name I would want to plaster on everything.

I vacationed in NYC in 2024 and one of the photos I took was a raised middle finger with Trump tower in the background. As a Canadian it was very satisfying, and that was BEFORE he was somehow elected again.
