When Donald Trump got the bill for Vanessa Guillén’s funeral in 2020, he reportedly raged, “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a f---ing Mexican!”

    I’m starting to think Donald Trump is not a very nice person.

    Trump reportedly complained later in the day that these “fucking people” are “trying to rip me off.”

    He thinks it’s his money.

    Just one more thing that should absolutely torpedo any political career, that won’t hurt him at all. His MAGAt cultists probably think that was “speaking the truth” or some stupid shit like that. Anyone who would be bothered by his comments has abandoned him ages ago.

    If I were a betting man, I would wager that Donald will drop the “N” word by the time the election is over.

      He got to occupy the news space so yeah why not. He wants hitler generals and “loves” Kim jong un and putin so there’s no limit IMO.

      To be fair fuckface 45, is a disgusting, con artist, rapist, mushroom-shaped penis’ed, pile of burning excrement in some wonderful orange make-up that’s totally normal for an 80 year old man. He also loves the phantom of the Opera which is perhaps the most offensive thing about home.

      They can be, sadly. It depends where you live, where you have someone buried, and what services and coffin and whatnot you get. But yeah, the funeral business in the US is pretty crazy greedy. $60k is definitely on the higher end. According to a quick Google, my state’s average funeral cost is around $8k, with the total cost (including mortuary services, etc) around $20k.

        The hell. What if your wage is 10k a year. Ie. you’re on disability benefits or social security. Will my family have to bury me in the backyard?

          That is the average, not the median. The median looks a lot different (cheaper):

    “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a f—ing Mexican!” Is this trump admitting to murdering mexicans? Or at least knowing how much it cost to bury them afterwards?
