    insanity. How people still are donating to either of them is beyond me. How some people will defend the donations to Biden is doubly concerning.

    The vast majority of the funds are going to the party.

    The donation ad says if people dont donate then Trump might win in court because they won't be able to fight it!

    And people say Trump is a gangster!!

    Are you really arguing how politicians generally operate? Obama raised vast amounts for his campaign as well.

    trump pursuing frivolous lawsuits is denial of reality.

    trump ordered children to be separated from their parents as a means of immigration control, try and defend trump, rather than pretending that other politicians are as awful as him, they are not.

    Trump grifting for money for lawsuits and campaign debt was a big no no recently. Now that Biden is doing the same grifting and using lines like " if you dont donate Trunp might win" while in reality the vast majority of donations go to the party it suddenly doesn't matter.

    You can't call one out and give the other a free pass for the same thing.

    You can change back to talking about Trump and immigration cages if you like but at the same time ignoring that Biden just rehired a staunch cage defender who has called people deported without committing a crime as " collateral damage "

    Its populism. Different rules for different folks. All depends on which side you are on.
    Call them all out on their actions or none at all

    When Biden/Harris get in, we can all call them out on their actions.

    trump can continue to be called out on his ongoing moronic sh*thousery.

    Is the best you have to defend trump with "in some ways other people are just as sh*t as him", because in lots of other ways, he's an as*hole as well.

    Do you think trump is a good or bad person for ordering children to be separated from parents? If Biden does the same, I will think he is an ass as well.

    Is it just mental gymnastics you're trying to pull to justify supporting him?

    I don't support him. The man is a con artist and a bully.

    Children should never have been put alone in cages. Some of the money pissed away on the wall should have been put towards border control administration. If people cant stay in the Us they need to be documented, rounded up and brought back over as quickly as possible.


    "When Biden/Harris get in, we can all call them out on their actions"

    I have my doubts.

    how much influence do you think social media has?

    Usual failure to address issues. Just a thrown out question intended to deflect. Really cannot be considered posting in good faith.

    Social media has a huge influence in elections these days, Trumps campaign spent 44% of its budget on digital in 2019. You know this. Your question was not asked to gain information, it was asked to divert attention from your lack of reasoned argument.

    Have you finally got over that Hillary lost in 2016?

    We have, took a good 3 or 4 days.

    I swear some conservatives think she won the way ye still go on about her.

    I'm 100% convinced those guys went to that march to paint that exact picture of Trump supporters. Getting on to media was probably part of their plan.

    And fair play to them for doing it I say.

    Elections are messy and mistakes are inevitable but judges and the laws they interpret rightly set a high bar to anybody who alleges electoral fraud. Hard evidence of a widespread conspiracy has to be produced or otherwise every loser would be running to the courts to disrupt democracy. In the absence of such evidence, such lawsuits merely provide more fodder for QAnon and Co. which may be why prestigious legal firms are abandoning Trump’s effort.

    Are there no senior White House or GOP advisors that can tell him he’s being a gob****e and to stop tweeting ???

    He's gone full Henry Sellers.

    Just in case anyone is still wondering why this dangerous cretin and his band of fúcktards need to leave immediately.

    That is his covid advisor telling people to rise up against a state trying to handle the pandemic.

    Also, again endangering the life of the same governor this administration endangered previously with their rhetoric. Good for her that she hasn't been intimidated by them.

    His Covid advisor who's qualifications are in Radiology and previously had nothing to do with virology or epidemiology

    He's tweeting


    Just had a quick look over his last few tweets and this really is scary stuff coming from someone who still is POTUS.

    It would actually be funny if he wasn't in that position, but he and people who are enabling him are dragging the democracy of the USA well and truly through the mud.
    When all is said and done and his rants, claims and court battles come to nothing will he just be allowed to get away with all of this?
    Is there actually a chance that he could even try and run for president again?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,925 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    So, can we start a pool on when he issues his Nero Decree?

    "When Biden/Harris get in, we can all call them out on their actions"

    I have my doubts.

    Of course you call them out on their actions ... And when their actions or policy isnt working for you then you can vote for another candidate the next time

    Which what record numbers of people did two weeks ago

    Im always impressed at how the usual response to a post criticising both camps of supporters is to spin the wheel of ‘bad things trump did’ and bring it in randomly to suggest the criticism of biden supporters is unfair.

    “Both are grifters”
    “But...”<spins wheel>“Trump put kids in cages”
    Is not the checkmate you want it to be

    And using a "bUt It WaS tHe EiGhTiEs" argument to explain how Trump isn't a racist isn't the get-out-of-jail-free card you want it to be either.

    Him posting on twitter is like a child getting into the sweet tin and eating everything; it feels good in the moment but he'll pay for it later when he has the ****s.

    Youd want to put some grease on that bearing, the wheel is overheating from spinning that much.

    Biden asking for donations is just as griftery and bad as trump, end of

    Makes me chuckle how grown adults genuinely believe saying “end of” and “FACT” means they’ve won the argument!!

    So would you like to reply to my last comment on the matter, or would you prefer to continue to ignore it and live in your bubble?

    Edit: the latter it seems.

    When the headline is false why would you read the rest of the article?

    Trump's basis for his claim is completely without merit, despite this Biden still needs to mount a defence against such. You're completely missing the nuance between the two

    ah, but there might be a nugget of truth in it somewhere and it is totally worth your time to look for it. Totally.
