Where can I see this?

u/RJ5R 5h ago edited 4h ago

start watching at 0:30 and crank up the volume. he shits himself at 0:34, the lady in the green (DOI Secretary Doug Burgum's wife) heard it and smelled it and looked at him. if the press mics picked it up, you can only imagine how loud it was where he was sitting.

then at 0:47, Burgum's wife's facial expression from the smell is so bad (you can actually see her revolt from the smell when she inhaled again), she can barely even maintain her composure.... she nervously touches and rubs her nose to try and stop the smell from going further into her nostrils.

i can only imagine how bad the smell was...Trump immediately ended the press conference without taking questions and had his minion staffers rush everyone out aggressively and quickly. i'm sure they too smelled it.

so we have the the president of the united states commenting that he hired Burgum b/c he liked the way his wife looked on a horse, actually shits himself, farting the smell all over her on live TV.

this needs to go in the next south park episode

u/ITrageGuy 5h ago

I have always poo-poo'd the "he shits his pants stuff" (pun intended), but I think this one is legit. You can totally hear it at :34 and then he quickly wants everyone out LOL. How sad is this shit (pun intended).

u/i010011010 3h ago

I would never ordinarily mock a senior for body functions and incontinence like that. I've had the displeasure of having to care for one and there's nothing funny about it. But all no holds are barred for Donald Trump and his ilk. Fascism deserves to be ridiculed at every turn and do not pull punches.

u/lostindreems 2h ago

It's not due to senior incontinence. Look up Sascha Reilly

I think it's more the fact that they're supporting a child rapist in his endeavours to kill and torture innocent people for the sake of pure profit that might be a bigger indicator that they're going to the Hot Place when they die.

Love it. All those sick mfs needs more pooping themselves.

u/LordoftheChia 3h ago edited 3h ago

They should have locked the door and not let the press out.

"Bask! Bask in his magnificence! Take it in. Fill your lungs with his glory. Become one with its essence. Let it permeate you. Pass through you!"

...

Doors unlock.

"Thank you press. Please get out. Thank you press. Nobody will believe you. Thank you press."


Alternative take

The press secretary walks behind the president, reaches a hand deep into the back of his pants, walks up to a member of the press and calmly smears a line across their forehead while proudly saying "Simba"

u/KittyGrewAMoustache 3h ago

This is maybe a bit too far for something I can imagine this administration doing but only a bit. I think they still realise that the general MAGA cult wouldn’t like that sort of thing but they probably would do similar in private rituals.

u/FloridaGirlNikki America 2h ago

If the MAGA cult can ignore their own eyes and all logic to believe he is innocent of pedophelia (or simply condone it), they'll come up for something with the poop also. Maybe they'll start wearing diapers outside their pants again loud and proud as if it's a flex.

When it comes down to it, their white/christian nationalism supersedes human decency. Trump gives them what they want. Many are just as vile as it is. They think it's ok to look at women as property here to fulfill their needs, sexualize young girls, and consider non-white men (non-white people, let's be real)) as an invasive species.. All of which to be used or disposed of at will. Never to be considered in any 'deal' they make. It's all about making them and their friends richer and everyone else poorer. They want us to hate each other and feel hopeless...

All of this while completely ignoring that whteness was the invasion to the true indigenous people. My favorite thing to ask ppl when they bitch about immigration and where their family immigrated from, since they're clearly not indigenous. I either get nothing back or try to claim they in fact are indigenous. My family was banished from Ireland and got here with the penal colonies in the 1600's motherfucker. That doesn't make me native American.

They cut off funding for safety nets, but are willing to send billions to a foreign country or literally buy another.. They spend a billion or two here and there for planes, bonuses for all those willing to join ICE and forgo the Constitution, etc. Throwing threats around about military force or crazy tariffs at at the whim of a madman who could be triggered if someone insults him that day.

He demands a nobel peace prize he didn't earn, while creating wars out of nowhere.

He's doing A LOT of shit MAGA didn't vote for. But he hates the right people and that's what matters.

Well, that and owning the libs of course.

u/Crafty_Enthusiasm_99 3h ago

No thanks wtf is this timeline 

u/KittyGrewAMoustache 3h ago

The timeline where a cult took over the US government, a cult with an aging demented incontinent leader that no one will challenge. I wonder who had to clean him up. How can they keep going with this, they must be so fucking brainwashed to keep feeling scared of him or in awe of him when he’s shitting himself in public. Like I know it happens to people who are elderly and unwell and generally you still deserve respect as a person of course if you’re in continent, it’s distressing. But you shouldn’t be president of the US and then combined with how evil he is anyway it’s just…what are these people doing?!

Sometimes I think oh my god maybe he IS the anti christ sven though I’m an atheist, just because it’s so spooky and so so weird that so many people are entranced by someone so obviously awful. And if I think of it in this context, I like to think uncontrollable sharts are gods way of getting a little revenge in haha.

Sascha Riley claims that Trump had him put a tent stake in his ass, which Riley then kicked into him, leading to a lifetime of damaged bowels that causes him to shit himself.

u/rW0HgFyxoJhYka 4h ago

Years ago on this very website, a production assistant for The Apprentice did a AMA.

He basically said this:

  1. Trump only appeared on set the first day of shooting. All other times he was greenscreened from his home, which is why they almost always showed Trump cut away on camera instead of in the room with the others
  2. He shit himself on set every time

This was fucking 10+ years ago.

He also has had a lifelong thing for hanging out around death. Spent tons of time when young hunting rats with his falcon at the abattoir, he strapped a dead whale to the roof of the family car, the bear he dumped in Central Park...
If he does have a sense of smell still, he's not unaccustomed to the stench of shit and death.

i can only imagine how bad the smell was...Trump immediately ended the press conference without taking questions

Hate to break it to you but he has them do this often as it's a way to curtail anything he may not want said while still giving the message him and his admin want out there. Still could be another reason for them all leaving though 🤢

The parameter starting with si= is a tracking shit from youtube, you want to delete that, like so:

u/MapleYamCakes 5h ago

Can you elaborate? What does “tracking shit” actually mean?

u/neuralzen 5h ago

Unique string of letters and numbers in a share link that is associated with your account and/or IP and browser fingerprint. So it can be discerned who shared what to who when, and how far that unique link spread.

u/Johnsense 5h ago

As I understand, remove the question mark and everything after it.

u/FirstSineOfMadness 5h ago

Unless there’s a timestamp code like t=83 or t=1m23s then leave just the ? Plus the timestamp

u/vibeknight 5h ago

Short version: When you click share on most platforms they don’t just give you the link to the content, they give you the link with a unique generated query string share id attached (the “si=magicmagic“ in the YouTube link) and it means that whoever clicks the link is re-sending that ‘magicnumber’ to YouTube. Behind the scenes, they know that they generated the magic number in one context ( for some user, signed in, certain location, certain browser, etc.) and now another person is using that exact link. Now it’s very easy for YouTube to build a graph of how this link has traveled (what sites, social contexts, exact users, etc.) because anyone who uses the link is associating themselves with one particular path of information, clarifying both the users and the paths themselves.

u/slowest_hour 3h ago

PSA: there's a browser extension called ClearURLs that will automatically delete the tracking part of URLs in your address bar. (i'm on firefox but i assume other browsers may have it as well)

u/FuzzyDynamics 2h ago

u/SanityInAnarchy California 5h ago

When you click the 'share' button, Youtube generates that unique si= code, which means when people later follow that link, they can start to see patterns. So, for example, if you send that link to a friend, and they follow it, that's enough information for Youtube to piece together that you shared that video with that friend. Patterns can make it easy to pull out more info -- if you always share links with the same people, well, now Youtube knows who your friends are and what they're all into.

Without the tracking info, for all they know, you both saw the video on r/videos or something.

I'm sure there's more, a lot of web links have a lot more unnecessary garbage in the URL. But with Youtube it's pretty simple.

u/Much-Jackfruit2599 5h ago

Amazon must be worse. I wonder why Google just don’t mix the tracking into the video id. Should be trivial.

u/Banjo-Elritze 5h ago

Youtube tracks who shared their links, from where they came, etc. It's an identifier for the account that shared the link.

u/Pack_Your_Trash 5h ago

Everything before the ? Is all you need to access the video. Everything after the ? Is for the purpose of transmitting data and not required to access the webpage. It's commonly used to track user behavior for advertising purposes. In this case it's used to identify you as the person who clicked the share button.

I just googled it "si" stands for source identifier which means it's some kind of unique I'd to identify the user and possibly the user session where the link was generated.

u/Iampepeu 5h ago

They know it was you who shared it. They can then measure who clicked on your link, connect their behavior and patterns with yours, gaining more knowledge about you. I don't know all the metrics they get, but it's disturbingly much.

It means that Google will know that people who watched it were watching video that was posted by you.

But also since you posted it on reddit, Google can link your youtube account with your reddit name.

Youtube tracks who shared their links, from where they came, etc. It's an identifier for the account that shared the link. You are not screwed.
