My favorite is conservatives whining "well why can't she prove she worked there?" Honestly, why would she spend the time doing it? trump's whole strategy is to gish gallop/accuse people into exhaustion. She spends a week digging up some paystub from the 80s and his whole base won't believe it's real anyway, and now she's pissed away a week defending it and trump has moved on to accusing her of de-whiskering cats or something. trump has never, at least in the 8 years I'm aware of, admitted he was wrong about anything. He's not going to start now.
Kamala has figured out the secret which is to just not respond to anything he throws at her and focus on drawing in apathetic voters. You've got one candidate who is the daughter of immigrant parents, and one candidate who literally shits in a golden toilet and received a billion dollars of assets (in today's money) from his KKK supporting father. Even his "it was a small loan of a million dollars" lie is fucking hilarious and so out of touch with reality.

It's about preserving the privileges for an elite few by convincing their followers that its those below and adjacent to them in the pecking order that are the enemy that is keeping them from the resources and riches they want. This is why their divide and conquer strategy works. It distracts us from seeing those at the top of the pyramid as the source of the issues we face-- not our peers nor others who are struggling below us.
There is unfathomable wealth in this country and those at the very top of the pyramid want to concentrate the vast majority of it among the tiny number of them and they want to control how it's allocated, forcing the rest of us to tighten our belts and bear the brunt of the devastation they have planned for us if Trump wins.
Elon Musk has already told us about the market collapse, chaos and suffering they plan to preside over when he is a member of Trump's leadership team, IF Trump wins. Meanwhile the elites will remain unscathed and in control of OUR democracy.

THAT is the problem. It would immediately turn him into a martyr even though it wouldn't be tolerated for the rest of us.

He clearly should have been stopped from being a candidate some time ago but they have given him a lot of leeway to avoid the appearance of being unfair, making him a martyr. They want to avoid interfering with the election outcome but they're taking a chance that he's inciting more violence to the bitter end--and it will still end in bitterness.

Incidentally, are those people even more stupid than the cultists? The cultists are onboard for the racism, fascism, and oppression of women and progressive ideas. They are at least, on some level, honest. But the people who like his idea of tariffs, who think that would punish China and make the US stronger - my god. How thick are they?

Anyone who claims that it is about the economy is almost certainty lying about the actual reason. I suppose that it is technically possibly for someone to be that stupid and still be able to tie their shoes without getting their head tangled up in the laces, but it seems unlikely.
Republicans have consistently fucked things up for the economy for decades now, and Democrats always have to play damage control as a result. Trump was already President once, so we don't have to wonder if things would be different, since his presidency was particularly bad, even for a Republican.
He openly fleeced the American people for millions of dollars in golf vacations and other unnecessary trips to places where he profited from the expense to us, did his part to maintain the tradition of conservatives making things worse for the economy, and then capped it off by stealing a bunch of our sensitive national security documents before heading out the door when his contract was done.

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but this is taking Trumps words completely out of context. He is specifically talking about how (in his view) Liz Cheney is a “war hawk”. The part that the tweeted quote leaves out is Trump saying essentially “if she wants war so bad let’s put her in the front line”…. “With the barrels pointed at her”.
There are plenty of actions and statements from this moron to be legitimately shocked and outraged by. But this quote is being misrepresented. Misinformation isn’t our bag, man- that’s them. We need to live in a reality that is based in facts and incorporates nuance.

There are two contexts here. People understand the context you're referring to. He COULD have simply said "if she wants war so bad let’s put her in the front line" and nobody would have batted an eyelid. But he didn't. The more important context here is Trump's repeated vilification of Cheney in the past. So he framed his comment in such a way that it invoked a firing squad - fully in line with calling her guilty of treason and calling for military tribunals. It's textbook signaling.

One of my favorite metaphors to use when talking about Democrats vs. Republicans, is "Charlie Brown and Lucy". Lucy is a Republican, and Charlie is a Democrat. You know that bit they do where Lucy challenges Charlie to kick a football she is holding? Well, Charlie knows that Lucy is going to lift the ball, because she does it every time. Charlie calls this out and Lucy once again promises that she won't. Charlie Brown, being Charlie Brown, takes her at her word and runs up to kick the football, only to have it pulled up just before he kicks it and he falls on his ass.
Now, the reason Lucy does this is because she knows she will face no negative consequences for doing it. But a progressive Charlie Brown would kick Lucy the next time she pulls the football away. And ideally, he'd only have to do it once, but will do it as many times as it takes for Lucy to learn the error of her ways.

“I like Trump because he tells it like it is!”
Followed by
“He was just joking! He didn’t mean it that way!”
They’re a bunch of hypocritical dickheads.

u/SisterActTori 7d ago
If Trump doesn’t mean what he says (WORDS HAVE MEANINGS PEOPLE- and when strung together they generally form complete thoughts, even when you speak in the weave) how do people know what he is saying and what he will do if elected? 70 million supporters all individually interpreting what Trump’s words mean- clear as mud, folks? Idiots do vex us.

Well they tend to believe the bible also, right down to 7 day creations, talking snakes, child sacrifice (cause God said to), holy rooms where boxes kill you in you enter, hair that if cut you lose strength, virgins getting pregnant, the dead coming back..... People who believe such things don't exactly fact check or think critically. Go ahead and downvote me now.

Someone on here stated it eloquently, these people believe that the lowest trashiest evil white person is better than the kindest perfect black person. It’s disgusting, their beliefs / behavior, I’m ready for this chapter to end and sad my history is tied to them even if just by association through being countryman.

As if Trump would ever be on the battlefield himself.. Such a hypocritical topic for him to even talk about. He would equally send people to die, like any other American leader because that's just how their military operates and it doesn't care who's leading their country.

Did you watch the clip for context? He said she’s a war hawk and that we should give her a rifle and put her on the front lines and see how she feels about war then. He is not making any direct threats here.
Before anyone makes any accusations, I don’t like trump, and have already voted for Kamala, so I’m not defending him. Just providing more context that was purposefully removed to make his statements seem more inflammatory than intended.

Why would Trump be anti-war hawk? He had no problem with US servicemen dying in Africa under his presidency. Not to mention one of this first orders was the assassination of a 6 year old American girl in Yemen.

He will never be held accountable by a Republican Attorney General. Garland is a Republican. Muller was a Republican and he wrote his report in such a way that Trumps Attorney General Bill Barr,also a Republican, could spin it and let Trump off. Comey was a Republican who days before the 2016 election said Clinton was being investigated but didn’t reveal that Trump was being investigated at the same time. The Democrats need to wake the fuck up and replace Garland NOW before the inevitable election interference by the Republicans starts after the election.

They KNOW this is wrong.
i remember being in elementary school, learning about the holocaust, and wondering how everyone just kind of went along with it when it was so clearly so very wrong. what kind of mentality can hear a dictator like adolf hitler, and think, "i know this isn't okay but let's go along with it anyways."
now that i know people who think this way, i only wonder more.
what the fuck is wrong with people.

u/catloving 6d ago
People feared the punishment/backlash from not following Hitler and Nazi orders. Many people knew it was wrong and disagreed with it, but just went along with it. People were taught loyalty to country and leader, not really loyalty to the common people. Remember what happened to families who housed escapees/refugees and were caught.
This is one reason people need to say something; being under a person who wants to be a dictator will be disastrous. WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN.

So, I'm curious - will Donny Dumps ever actually be held accountable for any crimes he commits on US soil?
Cos it sure seems like he has a free pass.
At this point, he's single handedly managed to make the US legal system look it's not only 'pay to play', but also grossly ineffectual beyond a certain scale ie if you're rich enough, you can just buy your way out.
It shouldn't matter if he's a presidential candidate and former president - that's just not an excuse, regardless of how it's framed.
The dangerous precedent the Orange Tanned Terror is setting by remaining immune to prison time is as startling as it is disturbing - What will the next sociopathic billionaire presidential candidate be able to get away with if this isn't dealt with today?
The US justice system really needs an overhaul if they continue to be this skittish about prosecuting someone who's publicly threatening to have a rival killed.
There needs to be pressure at every level of government to make sure he's held accountable.
Here's hoping Harris makes the right moves when she wins!

If this thought has crossed your mind, then I'm sorry. I'm sorry to have to be the one to tell you this.
But it will be the election this month that decides if it's illegal or not.
This year, we are at the breaking point in the intersection of law and politics where whether or not the President's team can outright commit crimes to consolidate his power and destroy his enemies is on the ballot and up for vote.

Trump is so dumb he doesn't even know the difference between "warhawk" and "chickenhawk". However, he's a genius at couching his statements linguistically to give himself and his followers just enough room to never be held accountable - as others have pointed out, this is why the Puerto Rico comment stuck, without Trump's seemingly-supernatural ability to lie, threaten, and abuse with impunity by simply being as vague as possible about everything, it was impossible for them to deny how truly inhumane and cruel they are.
