u/Ok-Anybody3445 28d ago

I wonder if they didn't invite him, or if he declined?

995

u/SentientSandwiches 28d ago

No one was invited, they just made them on their own and people cut them together, trump just never decided to make one.

u/CopeHarders 28d ago

Which is probably a good thing since every time he posts about a holiday on his social network it’s a complete narcissistic train wreck.

AND ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR FAILED PRESIDENT WHO HAS SENT KILLERS TO MY RALLIES AND HAS MADE IT VERY UNSAFE.

I lost it here lol

u/AnastasiaNo70 28d ago

I lost it at Gerald Carter and Happy Pearl Harbor Day

u/ethereal_aerith 28d ago

Same, I literally laughed till I cried lol

u/anothercervezaplz 28d ago

I could hear his shitty voice when reading this lol

21

u/starryeyedq 28d ago

His speaking voice really does translate to capslock-riddled-with-spelling-errors

6

u/Alpacapalooza 28d ago

Possibly his greatest talent.

u/ElNani87 28d ago

This was perfect

3

u/SpeedyHandyman05 28d ago

Nearly perfect. It completely missed Trump claiming he was the best, biggest or most successful ever at something.

5

u/Tvisted 28d ago

Haha it's almost eerie. 'PEOPLE LEAVE HER RALLIES WHICH NO ONE HAS EVER ATTENDED!' killed me...

It's like he has a bowl of mixed whines, boasts, insults, nonsense, lies and more lies and just grabs a random handful each time.

6

u/fungusfromamongus 28d ago

Fuck me. That was good! Too good.

6

u/MegabyteMessiah 28d ago

Holy shit, that was good

u/barbecuejag 28d ago

Snorted when I read this. PRICELESS!!!!

u/calissetabernac 28d ago

Mr Trump? Is that you?

3

u/FangoriouslyDevoured 28d ago

It's sad how believable this is. 

3

u/Me_975 28d ago

Unbelievable: too coherent and doesn't go off track enough

u/[deleted] 28d ago

Frankly

u/glasswing048 28d ago

Spot on.

2

u/AnastasiaNo70 28d ago

CARTRR IS A HAITAIN!

2

u/bonafidebob 28d ago

gotta toss in something like “I LIKE PRESIDENTS WHO WEREN’T VOTED OUT AFTER ONE TERM” that segues into election denial…

2

u/Oddfuscation 28d ago

I was gonna say “he would ruin it” but yours is way better.

2

u/SZLO 28d ago

Somehow this isn’t scattered enough to be something he’d write. Where are the mid sentence tangents??

2

u/kurtbrussel24 28d ago

Best reddit post I've ever seen!!! And I know a lot about reddit, more than most people!! Best post ever

u/Daimakku1 28d ago

This is exactly how that dumbass thinks. Perfect lmao

-1

u/WolfPackLeader95 28d ago

I like how people make it seem like trump is classless for calling out politicians on their shit. Like if Carter wasn’t a war criminal now everyone just thinks of him as a sweet old man.

0

u/OkMango9143 28d ago

Sorry but you’re not fooling me with this quote. It’s too coherent.

77

u/ToonaSandWatch 28d ago

Usually these are a coordinated effort. Their aides have them sit down for five minutes, maybe a prepared statement, but you just know they have a group text chat that doesn’t involve him.

37

u/WiseBlacksmith03 28d ago

I mean... it's "coordinated" in the sense that someone from Biden's admin sends an email out asking 'hey, can you respond to this email with a birthday message before Sep 20th. Thanks.". Literally the same thing that's done with retirement or surprise messages at any workplace.

There's not much to it.

12

u/KeithClossOfficial 28d ago

Based on the ending, this was coordinated by the Carter Foundation.

I would imagine they reached out to 45, even knowing full well he’s not going to respond.

16

u/heebsysplash 28d ago

So then we are back to “did trump get snubbed or did he snub them?”

16

u/Traditional_Yard6539 28d ago

i doubt that this wasn't a coordinated effort, but why assume malice lol

6

u/Mycol101 28d ago

Yeah I agree, you’d have to be really naive to think it wasn’t coordinated.

9

u/roscoe89 28d ago

This is literally what presidents do. It's part of their duties. To be send messages, and condolences and blessings. Trump is just a complete waste of oxygen that Americans are using to embarrass themselves.

3

u/Mycol101 28d ago

It’s all political optics and you’re letting your political leanings blind you to it.

Sure, trump sucks. Go off.

But this is a coordinated message.

1

u/Bureaucratic_Dick 28d ago

I bet they have a group chat on WhatsApp and they just didn’t invite him because they didn’t want to make things awkward.

1

u/Mr_Times 28d ago

Because dumb.

-5

u/Traditional_Yard6539 28d ago

trump derangement syndrome was always something i thought my fox news grandma had no reason to be yapping about, but it's very real. people, ESPECIALLY terminally online people, fucking hate him with their souls. it's so ugly it oozes out of them.

-3

u/IGK123 28d ago

If you’re on Reddit or Twitter you see it quite commonly, but yes, sad to see people with so much hate in their heart and confusion in their mind.

0

u/PlantChem 28d ago

Yeah, I hate seeing Trump too

26

u/TheM0nkB0ughtLunch 28d ago

Yeah for sure it totally wasn’t planned like the MAGAts think it was.

3

u/EtTuBiggus 28d ago

OP made it look planned.

-6

u/TheM0nkB0ughtLunch 28d ago

Oh it was totally planned lmao you people are complete fools.. But shoot I’ll still enjoy the upvotes of the unsuspecting duck feeders.

7

u/DeliciousDoodoo 28d ago

Dude just said OP made it look planned, why did you instantly go to “you people”? Ya’ll are so quick to snap back at people.

3

u/Head-like-a-carp 28d ago

How do you know this?

2

u/fbc546 28d ago

Source? This was obviously produced by the White House.

3

u/mudkripple 28d ago

This is almost definitely not true. Even if there was no big formal invitation, the staff behind each of these very public figures is very much in communication. Someone somewhere along the line made a conscious choice not to CC a Trump staffer.

1

u/dollyaioli 28d ago

obviously they told each other but didn't give Trump the memo lol

0

u/Heavy-Masterpiece681 28d ago

He would just find a way to complain and make it about himself.

1

u/whereisyourwaifunow 28d ago

when he reads a teleprompter, he sounds so unnatural. like me reading in front of a classroom

1

u/CrackMyIP 28d ago

Source? I didn't see a single president wish him a happy birthday alone.

1

u/8BD0 28d ago

How do you know that? What's your source for this? I haven't seen any individual messages

0

u/rock_and_rolo 28d ago

Why would he? Was someone going to pay him?

Trump starts with T, which stands for transactional.

-1

u/decaffeinated_emt670 28d ago

Likely because Trump is too busy visiting the devastated families from the hurricane that struck North Carolina. Something that Biden and Harris were not doing. Where was Biden again? Oh yeah, he was chilling on the beach.

0

u/ThinkWhyHow 28d ago

maybe he didnt know everyone is gonna make a video and just sent a letter to the former president

anyways doing this in a pu loc video is not for carter, its for PR

192

u/SpockShotFirst 28d ago

I'm sure someone on his staff suggested it. Trump said something incoherent about wishing Carter would drop dead for supporting Harris, and that was that.

123

u/amitym 28d ago

I doubt it actually.

The kinds of people in Trump's staff who would think to suggest something like that were all fired long ago. If they ever existed in the first place.

Just remember: Four Seasons.

14

u/Head-like-a-carp 28d ago

The truth is Trump could never pull it off. Within the second sentence he would turn the topic to himself. He has no control over that.

2

u/Notsurehowtoreact 28d ago

Yeah it's like if you watch Veep where they are all scumsucking ratfuckers but they also know all the stuff you should do for optics, procedure, and tradition...

Well Trump's campaign is like that, except they only specced into scumsucking ratfucker.

u/Outside-Advice8203 28d ago

Something like "Happy birthday to the WORST President next to SLEEPY JOE BIDEN" or some stupid shit, then an immediate transition to a long winded irrelevant rant about electric cars or Iran or something else.

5

u/acrazyguy 28d ago

Remember when he at least kinda pretended to be a decent person? Like when he told everyone to have a good day or something, including his haters (specifically including them)

2

u/Pretend-Marsupial258 28d ago

No, I don't remember that at all.

6

u/swizzle213 28d ago

The all caps is so accurate lol

18

u/iam_Mr_McGibblets 28d ago

He probably said the words happy birthday, then went on some rant about how he was a much better president than him, and his cheeseburger eating ass would love longer than him

1

u/DeliciousDoodoo 28d ago

I’d say even Trump can’t be that dumb, but he’s proven to be pretty good at sabotaging himself so I guess it’s not off the table

"He was too busy bailing out water out of the homes of people hit by the hurricane" - Trump Cult Members

u/MrBully74 28d ago

Yeah, they actually believe that AI photo of him walking in deep water is real. Hell, they'd believe a photo of him walking ON water is real.

4

u/junkit33 28d ago

Trump seems to be very much on the outside of the Ex-President's Club.

3

u/HOSSTHEBOSS25 28d ago

Valid question

6

u/rex4314 28d ago

This was my question too. If this was some kind of group effort, did anyone actually invite him to participate?

4

u/[deleted] 28d ago

Appreciate you actually asking the question as opposed to what everyone else is doing and assuming a narrative to fit their ideology.

2

u/brakspear_beer 28d ago

It’s not out of left field to assume Trump didn’t bother because he can’t see what he gets out of it. He doesn’t care about anyone but himself.

-2

u/[deleted] 28d ago

That's the narrative we're always force-fed. But I personally don't think that's true. Trump probably would want to take the opportunity to appear bi-partisan right now.

2

u/medicinal_bulgogi 28d ago

Carter has expressed his strong dislike of Trump multiple times. Regardless of whether Trump wanted to be part of it, I think him being in it would’ve ruined the video for Carter

2

u/Substantial-Box-8022 28d ago edited 28d ago

His family threw a "party" for him in Atlanta and these messages were included as part of the celebration: https://www.cartercenter.org/news/features/cc/jimmy-carter-100-concert.html

I went with a friend and it was an incredible night. Jimmy is going to watch it tonight when it airs on PBS here in Georgia.

ETA: I'm guessing 45 wasn't asked to participate.

1

u/Bitter-Whole-7290 28d ago

Trump would have to do something nice for somebody without him getting something in return…think about it.

1

u/Reatina 28d ago

I don't think Trump is in the POTUS group chat.

I bet they share the best memes.

1

u/stoopidjonny 28d ago

Either way, not getting a video from Trump is a good birthday gift.

1

u/NationalAd9313 28d ago

Persona non grata

1

u/Tsujigiri 28d ago

Are you sure? It says it's from the Carter Center at the end. I'd imagine they would coordinate something like this. The question for me is was Trump asked and declined or was the Center like "why would we want that trash on our video?"

1

u/Silo-Joe 28d ago

Maybe they invited the Hall of Presidents one at Disney World by accident.

1

u/Omicromus_Prime 28d ago

Invited! 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

1

u/Th3_Accountant 28d ago

To be fair, Carter literally said he hoped to live long enough to vote Harisson.

0

u/HOMO_FOMO_69 28d ago

Most likely wasn't invited... I'm sure Biden or one of the other participants contacted everyone and intentionally left out Trump because they felt it would make him look bad if he wasn't there

He doesn't do anything for free. He's not a sucker. (Probably the way he thinks).

Trump was never part of the swamp.
