I swear as a european that grew up watching Southpark it feels like it became real. Everything I read or see coming from the US seems so bizarre that I often question my sanity.

Unprofessional, improper, _unacceptable_. Americans should be ashamed of their president’s office.

I know The Pokemon Company and Nintendo have aggressive lawyers, they should be sending a cease and desist to get it taken down. Just putting out a statement isn’t enough.

They should stop writing stern posts and just start suing. If they already used the material, it hardly makes a difference anymore.

They have no problem suing others. They even took down AOCs use of Animal Crossing. But this is all they’ll do? Why are they so afraid to demand this be taken down? It’s just like when they used Pokémon for ICE.

Well, considering the game is primarily for kids, and the President loves kids – it checks out. Like, really loves them. Loves them on islands, loves them at his home.

Yeah… I can see why they’d be annoyed at that.
Games shouldn’t be used for political messaging
Stupid
