I like to shit on Trump as much as the next guy, but this actually seems like an honest mistake. It’s part of a background headline from this vintage newspaper video template: …envato.com/newspaper-vintage-history-headlines-p…

Though I have no doubt if Biden’s campaign did the same, Republicans would be up in arms about it.

Edit: I guess it’s easier to click the downvote button than it is to watch the video.

ynazuma,

I feel like the entire world has forgotten the lessons of WW2. Even the most affected groups are following policies that history shows us carry enormous consequences.

The fact that a barely articulate strong man is able to get so far just by ranting incoherencies at the camera is appalling. More appalling is the fact that the “other side” can only muster an old decrepit man to face this danger

Sadly, I suspect it's because the people who lived through fascism in the 1930s and '40s are now passing away. I sincerely hope this is not a lesson we have to learn over and over again.

Being old is not necessarily a negative. In this race, there is a big population bubble that tends to elect people their age who further their interests.

Tinidril,

The other side invested heavily in promoting that decrepit old man to represent their interests. The amount of backroom maneuvering it took to hand Biden the nomination was remarkable.

NPR listeners are recipients of establishment partisan propaganda every bit as much as Fox News watchers, and are approximately as oblivious to the fact.

I don’t have to listen to it any more because my liberal friends will all repeat it to me just like conservatives repeat their propaganda.

I, a sophisticate, get my brain washed by fellow antisocial queerdos on the Fediverse.

I’ll never forget Angela Merkel’s face when Trump said “fake news” at the press conference. Hitler famously referred to the BBC as lügenpresse (lying press). She knew of the danger of the Trump that day.

ScruffyDucky,

Transition to a reich-wing party is almost complete
