Get your own material.
No, actually it was coined in the book "Fight Club" in 1996

Then used in 2015, and discussed in Claire Fox's 2016 book, "I Find That Offensive!"

Trump shortened it, but didn't coin it.

Sorry, another bubble burst.

It s in the speech.

Donald Trump decidedly is NOT in the speech.
Therein lies the love and unity speech made by Spike Lee at the Oscars.

Therein lies Trumps obsession with shredding good. And expressing and spreading EVIL in a clear and succinct manner via twitter. He just can t run the country anywhere but into the ground.

Not getting it at all.

What did Spike Lee say that Trump was offended by? The guy never mentioned Trump's name. Is it because he said "be on the right side of history"? Guess Donny thinks he is maybe on the wrong side?

And honestly, the so-called president is on his way to a nuke meeting with his buddy the dictator to ask him to please not blow up the world, and Donald Trump was tweeting at a film director over a perceived insult?

Wow--this guy really hates working doesn't he? Anything at all to avoid it.

I'm not a Trump voter if you were trying to be clever.

Imagine Rush Limbaugh saying in 2011 that we gotta defeat the communist in the 2012 presidential election and then having one of his nutty supporters claiming it wasn't directed at Obama.

I just found the whole claim to be weird and pointless. *shrug*

I guess Spike Lee might have been referring to Kamala Harris for all we know eh?

So in other words, you just want him to shut up. Which pretty much means exactly what that poster was saying. lol

I can agree with that. He does come across whiney.
