It was so outlandish that many of these folks opted to believe the media was slandering him over him just being that scummy of a person.
The character-assassination on “The Media” (granted some of that was self-inflicted) was really successful, allowing anyone to follow whatever narrative they desired without shame.
Or a good teacher who knows they’re neither trained nor paid enough to warrant the responsibility will keep it locked up very tightly and in the panic forget the code / lose the key, and then they’ll be the scapegoat after everything ends.
They’re trying to conflate a right-wing judge’s bias with those biG bAd LibErAlS who defend Garland’s meticulous albeit slow investigation and hand-off to Jack Smith I guess.
Donnie was only a “staunch” Democrat because he was playing to the local crowd. Was he ever a true Democrat? Did he ever care about any of the traditional issues? No chance.
Like Bloomberg they’re just Dem to fit in and not be ostracized. All those fucks are conservative Republicans in reality.
He hasn’t released on streaming yet or YouTube only insta and Twitter. Once it’s up on streaming he said all proceeds will go to The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA)....
Someone recently memed a twitter post that said, “The Have-Nots and the Have-Yachts.”
These right-wing assholes bitch and bemoan injustice and the working man and elite, but ignore how fucked it is we have rising childhood homelessness let alone poverty… But hey at least wealthy shitheads own multiple mansions, yachts, and private planes amirite. The King of Jordan owns at least 2 beach front Malibu mansions; Saudi Arabia, Russia, Japan, China own vast swaths of American land… And there’s not a peep over that; just blame the poor mother and child fleeing crime and poverty in South/Central America for geopolitical disasters WE largely caused or ignored in the first place.
Exactly. Imagine if it wasn’t just Trump but Mike Pompeo that piece of utter dog shit instead of Blinken. They’d be cheering on the bombings faster than Dick Cheney could say WMD while they just laughed at the protesters.

I’m about to vomit at the thought but if Trump gets locked up and sinks what are the odds Musk runs for President either this year or in 4 years to capture these same bottom-feeders of society?
What astounds me is it’s clearly a losing battle. Our statistics are terrible. The proliferation of firearms makes us no safer and in fact leads to a plethora of terrible side-effects that yield a net-negative upon society. Even the Wild West was no safer, hence why both Dodge City and Tombstone both implemented gun control laws.
It only makes sense. Easy access to firearms benefits the deranged and criminal since they’re the ones with the willingness to abuse them and we don’t live in Minority Report where the defender can easily shoot first.

Side note just in case it saves you from a gotcha in arguing with a Maga nutjob, but Trump didn’t hold the Bible upside down that day, per NYT, Politifact, and other fact checkers. He’s still a useless piece of shit.
My guy, how do you think peoples’ opinions on national issues shift over the years…?
… The answer: By the aggregation of conversations like this. Connecting dots to parallel events to exemplify what could’ve been — what other time is a viable time to have that conversation, at the dinner table…?
There really is nothing wrong here; there really is nothing rude here. The user is using satire and sarcasm to indicate that UK has more fruitful laws than America. if anything, it’s raising UK up and pointing out our stupid American shit. This is a public forum well within the rules — again, what is wrong with that?
The only thing I can conceive is that there are pro-gun folks on here who’d rather suppress this dialogue. They are quite literally the only ones who would object to not having the uncomfortable conversation about firearms in America and saving lives.
This has nothing to do with parallel events since the UK and the US have vastly different laws & regulations (or lack thereof).
Yes, that is precisely my point — can’t you see? Let me attempt to spell it out:
A parallel event occurs in the UK that is common in the US: a mass casualty homicidal rampage.
We (what we learn in English composition) Compare-and-Contrast in order to learn
We take what we’ve compared-and-contrasted, and we improve.
What you seem to suggest is that comparing and contrasting is off-limits on public forums for some inane reason.
And Americans constantly - and I really mean constantly - trying to interject their own politics into foreign topics that has nothing to do with them, trying to make the topic about them, is nothing but annoying at this point.
For better or worse, Americans have a massive influence on the world stage. We are the Rome of this era. What happens in America often impacts the globe, again for better or worse. Considering this is an open community that has many Americans on here, I fail to see the issue. Like, why are you so hellbent on suppressing a conversation about improving something for Americans? This has zero impact on what happens in the UK; we’re simply contrasting experiments in other countries to see what works, and what doesn’t.
This is all in the name of improvement, and I’ll be damned if anyone tries to suggest there’s something taboo about that.
This is, unfortunately, just proving my point though, since you completely ignore what I’m saying and continue to try to make this about you.
Again, your opening sentence outright proves you are completely ignoring my point.
