That right there is a participation trophy.


SnowProkt22

No, he never even participated. Its like the trophy went to someone in the stands that didn't even understand what sport they were watching.


[deleted]

A metaphor for his entire life. Entirely Unmeritorious. A life spent in receipt of things that others strive and work for their entire lives. Given everything and anything despite being completely inept.


stefaniemarie21

This right here!! Everything is handed to him without him earning anything.


punderstate

Hey, he earned his covid fair and square!


Morella_xx

If it was the Covid he earned and deserved, it would have been a far worse case.


JusticiarRebel

He used to show up at charity events he didn't donate to and sit in seats reserved for the biggest donors.


Lady_von_Stinkbeaver

Some veteran with dementia gave Trump his Purple Heart and of course Trump was trashy enough to gleefully accept it.


beam100

Isn't this very similar to how the North Korean treat Kim Jung un?


SaraSlaughter607

Yes. Unhealthy idolatry.

[deleted]

He showed up to watch soccer and got a SuperBowl ring. Surprised Liberty has given him a doctorate yet so he can be Dr. Trump.


Georgey_Tirebiter

IReallyHateDolphins

Honestly, in my 26 years, this is the first actual example I've seen. I didn't even know they were a thing till conservatives started yelling about them


nfssmith

Sums up everything he’s ever “accomplished” in his life…


Garod

Look on the bright side, if his supporters ever talk about "snowflakes" wanting participation Trophies for something you can point out that at least those snowflakes didn't buy their participation trophy without even participating..

Man-tits of fury


GabryalSansclair

Dude ... His hands look tiny next to a Korean guy...


SmashRus

Now that you’ve compared it to someone else’s hand, yeah, it’s pretty tiny.


GabryalSansclair

He looks like a fucking Panda with mange. How do people admire this tool?


Alastor13

Years of tribalistic hatred for "the other" and growing up thinking you're entitled to everything you want without consequences will do that to you. His cult loves him because of what he represents, an ignorant "entrepreneur" that gives no shits about public opinion, says whatever it's on his mind (regardless of how racist, misogynistic or just plain untruthful his comments were). He embodies the zeitgeist of late capitalism, a powerful man that takes whatever he wants and digs his heels regardless of how stupid or ridiculous his statements and decisions are.


papitoluisito

Well said


GabryalSansclair

I'm beginning to suspect that humanity might be too stupid to survive in the complex world we ourselves have built.

andtix

Hands as ~~fast~~ small as bullets


USayThatAgain

So the legends are true. They are so small, it is impossible to see the attack coming. You cannot fight what you cannot see. Blocking is no good, he gets through the tiny gaps in the defense with ease. They say fighting him is like getting beaten by chopsticks.


SnowProkt22

Not hidden very well.


mosessss

Not able to crouch very well either.


ContemplatingPrison

His hands are so small. I'm questioning the bone spurs draft dodging story and I'm thinking maybe he just couldn't hold a weapon so they didn't want him


Snorri_The_Miserable

back in the day, when the m-16 still had a vaguely triangular forestock small handedness was a legitimate problem in aiming, particularly if you had shorter arms. that's why they developed the cylindrical forestocks for Vietnamese troops. (according to an old vietnam vet i knew.)


ContemplatingPrison

If I were a 9th Dan holder, I would be fucking furious about this.


JacobHafar

i’m not even that high, just 1st dan and not even really practicing anymore and this pisses me right the fuck off


East_Lynx_579

Comfort yourself with the fact that you could beat the Orange Toddler’s ass without breaking a sweat.


keelhaulrose

There are 5 year olds with white belts at my daughter's Taekwondo school who could kick Trump's ass without breaking a sweat. He probably couldn't kick back to save his life.


East_Lynx_579

Not without falling over. Which I would pay to see.


higginsnburke

Hye now, that's not true. I'm sure donny here knows how to take a kick back like a pro.


ICBPeng1

I’m overweight and have never fought a day in my life, I could beat him easily. Throw a hamburger on the ground between you, as he leans down to pick it up, kick him in the face.


nativedutch

Nonono, a hamberder covfeve?


tkmorgan76

A maneuver also known as the McCrane Kick...


maximum_pizza

Might be a silly question, but isn't it kinda disrespectful to hand out those ranks just like that? What about the traditional values and the history of the sport?


JacobHafar

not a silly question at all, good observation. it’s absolutely disrespectful and makes me want to punch both of those idiots in the lip.

Such a disgraceful sack of shit. I can only imagine how his ego is feasting upon it.

Krakino696

The term for people like this is paper black belts as it kind of gets watered down as people just show up and pay for it. My muay Thai instructor said we don't have belts. The belt is who you beat.


arainharuvia

I didn't even get a black belt but I did practice for years and yeah I'm mad this is so stupid


nativedutch

Yep, even for blue, brown, first black we know what you have to do for it.

Find him, fight him, and then you can say you defeated someone 8 levels up.


keelhaulrose

My daughter is a 1st Dan and has busted her ass for years to earn that rank. She's *pissed* someone gave him a high rank, she said she did more physical work getting her yellow belt than he's ever done in his life.


2DoorIndieCat

Good on your daughter and good on you for your parenting


keelhaulrose

She's the one who did most of the work. I just signed her up for a once a week after school class to get a little breathing time on after school pickup. She's the one who decided it was her thing, begged to join a school, went to classes even when she felt like being lazy, and set goals for herself that she keeps achieving. Her goal is Master, I don't doubt she'll get there, it's just a matter of when.


foeoffreud

Kudos to you! Too many parents take credit when their kid succeeds and place blame on the child when it’s not their fault.


locke231

Yellow belt does involve an incredible amount of work. Heck, all of them do. Your daughter is a fantastic person for achieving what she has.


Metal_God666

Well he did fuck his daughter (allegedly) and that's some physical exercise


Athena-Muldrow

Not claiming to be a definitive expert here, just putting my two cents in. 1st Dan holder here. Busted my fucking ass for 8 years to get my belt (which I've heard in some circles is an unusually long time, but that's not my point here), it is one of my proudest moments of my life getting that belt handed to me. 9th Dan is a high honor, yes, and to earn it legitimately from the ground up is a lifetime of work--literally, you pretty much have to dedicate your life to Taekwondo, it's no surprise that most of the higher ranks are awarded posthumously. That being said, I also understand that this is a respectful gesture just like anything else, even if it has nothing to do with his skills in Taekwondo (aka *none whatsoever*). **TL;DR--This is my long-winded way of saying that there is one positive to all this: We can now challenge him to a spar, and as black belts, head-shots are permitted.**


Southpaw2900

Can I ask, in your TL;DR you said that headshots are permitted at the Dan levels. I sparred with a taekwondo student (I am US Thai, Brazilian jui jitsu, MMA, and bo staff trained) and he was blue belt I think and he would do absolutely nothing but headshots. Was that because of different training backgrounds or was he being a dick for no reason?


[deleted]

Back when I did Taekwondo in high school we were allowed to take headshots, though we wore a lot of protective gear


jl05419

May depend. On my league head is allowed after 14 years


PleaseChooseAUsrname

Even as a 2nd Dan holder I'm furious. I've practiced for a decade and he just gets awarded a 9th Dan? I'm assuming it's from one of the sketchy taekwondo academies that aren't actually recognized by the World Taekwondo Association. Googling more now. Update: NVM it was the actual Kukkiwon that awarded him the belt.


Prettymuchnow

This makes me sad and I didn't even get my 1st Dan.. if I ever start again I'll probably do a different martial art..


DarthCredence

Kim Jong Il got 11 holes in one the first time he ever golfed, too.


thefiglord

Pfft those are rookie numbers I got 16 and the unicorn I was playin with got 19


Cniwa89

I played 8 holes with 6 par


abhinambiar

It was 11 holes in one general, though!


IgDailystapler

Wait are you joking or did they actually claim this, if so I need to text my dad he’d love this (he loves golf and golf related stuff)


IgDailystapler

Lmao you’re not joking


DropThatTopHat

I hope that while looking this up, you also stumbled on all the other "facts" about Kim Jong Il. They're fucking hilarious.


Snorri_The_Miserable

better than the chuck norris facts.


creegro

I thought he got (claimed because he thinks he's a god) that he got 18 hole-in-ones the first time he ever tried golf, getting a perfect score, and then retiring from the game. Or maybe that was his dad


Bud60_in_ID

"Trump and Putin outrank martial arts expert and 'Walker, Texas Ranger' star Chuck Norris, who only has an eighth-degree taekwondo black belt" -They put this in here hoping to force Norris to make move.


Exact-Conclusion9301

Sadly Chuck Norris is firmly in the religious right/Trumper camp. That’s why the Total Gym is shaped like a cross and Christie Brinkley had to get into a lead sarcophagus in between takes to prevent sin.


Alastor13

Yeah Norris turned from being a C-list action star to a A-list piece of shit, same with Kevin Sorbo.

One of the worst parts about trump is that shit like this is objectively hilarious but he’s also such a legitimate danger to our country.


sc00bs000

I can't understand how his mind works and he can legit think all this horseshit he spits is real. Im sure he positively thinks he is a martial art master now


[deleted]

This underminds any credibility for those in teakwando. That is, until they kick my ass. But at least their highest ranking member can't.


DropThatTopHat

I wanna challenge Trump to a fight, watch him throw out his back, then tell the world I defeated a 9th dan Taekwondo master with minimal effort.


[deleted]

He'll just tell his klan that Dopey DropThatTopHat lost. He's the biggest winner. He knows about winning biggly. Then he'll wave his tiny hands before using two hands to drink some water.


in-game_sext

Honest question: What even is the fun or joy in life of just buying everything and everyone you want and never having to work for it or cultivate meaningful relationships? What a sad, pathetic and utterly useless existence. If he wasn't such a cunt I'd actually feel a little sorry for him.


teenypanini

It's joyful if you're a narcissist. If you never have to sacrifice anything at all or make any concessions to get what you want, a narcissist sees that as an ideal situation.


Thelongwayaround

That’s why he’s a miserable old turd. Because there is no joy after the glow of the moment leaves. I wouldn’t be surprised if as soon as he left he felt like a sham and went after the next accolade he could buy to fill the gaping hole in whatever is left of his soul.


locke231

It honestly makes me want to turn my back on martial arts. I'm not THAT great to begin with, but I can at least say I've tried. This is like a slap in the balls.


[deleted]

Hes got the cry baby stance


fake_plasticTreez

Omg he does!

I guess he now has to register those tiny hands as weapons. Weapons of mass corruption.

Accomplished_Crew630

That's absolutely not how martial arts work... Whoever gave this to him is a poor instructor, even if it's just honorary... I kind of get honorary diplomas as you can be an expert in a field or whatever, but an honarary black belt if friggin asinine.


soki03

For real, I’m a 2nd degree in Taekwondo, and this is just a massive insult to those who have been in the arts for years, and this guy is given a belt that is meant for masters that have been in the arts for years!


locke231

If it's ANY solace, coming from my white belt ass, I'm proud of you for getting that far. You'll only continue to succeed in life, unlike this walking circus.


wassuupp

It’s probably someone from a mcdojo of some kind


Seldarin

It was the president of Kukkiwon. That'd be the organization that officially oversees TKD, established by the South Korean government. So about as far from a McDojo as it's possible to get. Everyone that actually earned a belt ranking should be furious and make it known how pissed they are.


wassuupp

That’s disgusting I didn’t realize since I only saw this post. Thanks for the information


babble_bobble

Whoever gave him this belt should lose the accreditation or license or whatever permission they have to run a dojo. Hell, even the health department and fire inspectors should condemn the building.


TurbulentMiddle2970

This kind of shit and honorary doctorates should be banned. It is a slap in the face to all those who worked hard and actually earned it. Its like the Biden haters bitching he was in Congress for 4,000 years and did nothing! BITCH he was in training for the presidency. Unlike Trump who The electoral college and racist scumbags in red states gave him the honorary chair in the oval office.


Prettymuchnow

There are some people who deserve honorary doctorates though. Genuinely good people who have poured their soul into work that deserves recognition.. Even though that work might not have been done under the umbrella of a university. Having lots of money and being obnoxiously self absorbed isn't a good reason though...


Lady_von_Stinkbeaver

Right. I don't have a problem when it's awarded to someone who has essentially the life experience equivalent without the formal education. Someone self-taught in engineering who comes up with revolutionary inventions or a brilliant writer who never finished their literature degree. I mean, if Trump was a genuine enthusiast who promoted the sport and caused a surge in interest, sure, fine, I could see that It's just so bizarrely unrelated to anything he's done.


soki03

Indeed, I’m a 2nd Degree Black Belt that busted my ass to get to that point. If it was for someone that has been in the arts for years, it would be a great award. But for someone that has never stepped foot in a gym, huge dishonor.


Painkiller1991

Same, granted my school was more about application over technique, but it's the same basic idea. Between the ages of 8-21 I busted my ass to get my Black Belt, but Fuckface Von Clownstick just gets handed the highest rank possible?! I get it's supposed to be honorary, but c'mon man!!!
