Donald Trump the Megathread part II - Mod Warning updated in OP 12/2/26

The far right have done so much damage in the last 8 months and hit new highs of hiporacy with a leader who is a lying convicted felon and rapist who moans and whines is turning US into a fascist state supports Russia and Israel no sympathy here.

Release the files as was promised

Just when Trump appeared to be on the ropes with the release of the Epstein birthday book and Republicans beginning to show cracks in support a convenient assassination of a prominent MAGA voice but with now direct connections to Trumps cabinet happens.

Within hours all Republican / MAGA voices and news outlets are blaming democrats and declaring war has begun. This, without the gunman being at the time found and identified and is still at large.

This puts the democrats on the back foot defending themselves and will be used to try to shut them down. There will be some bullsxxxt executive order, the Charlie Kirk Order, that will put the National Guard in every blue state.

This is Trump's America. Lacking in integrity and full of insanity.

Before what happened with Charlie Kirk there were 47 school shootings in the US this year.

Straight after the Charlie Kirk incident there was another shooting at a Colorado school / university with 3 to 4 people injured which isn't making the news due to the Charlie Kirk incident.

By the end of the year there will be more than 1 school / university shooting every week of the year in the US and this is being treated as a normal part of that society.

George Floyd was a scumbag. He was a drug-user who broke into a woman's home and held a gun to her stomach, while his accomplices searched for drugs and money. This is what scumbags do.

Serves his wife and kids right due to the fact that they are "pro Trump"? Is that really the depth to which you have sunk

WHAT BENEFIT?!

There is none! You are living in a violent third world country necessitating the need for a gun. That's not a benefit, that's living in some kind of post apocalyptic hellscape.

It's just cosplaying as cowboys or Rambo for idiots. And any mentally deficient idiot can buy a gun at Walmart. A car is a necessity and you don't even have to own one because there are alternatives.

Guns are like pickup trucks for most people. They absolutely do not need to own one. At best it's just dickless posturing at worst, well, we're seeing it right now. You can own a gun in Germany but any application for a gun with the reason "because I want one" gets turned down. Because anyone who wants to own a gun just cause should never be allowed to do so.

Americans are like crack heads when it comes to guns. The US is a giant toddler as a country. It's just pitiful at this stage. Your country is on a very rapid decline and it looks like it's due to a massive mental health and educational crisis. And you guys are absolutely not interested in changing that so this will continue to happen and get worse.

Here's my thoughts and prayers.

Nowhere did I say it serves them right. I'm against any kind of violence. But if you support a stupid policy like widespread gun ownership and then get killed by a nutter with a gun you really don't have any defence. It's not hard to understand. He was killed as a result of the kind of American stupidity he actively promoted, and anyone who married a guy like that almost certainly has the same views.

Having slept on it, my position is the same. I am very sorry for his family, and the fact that his murder was broadcast to the world.

Having said that, I'm just annoyed at how pointless this was, whatever the motivation of the shooter was and is, because we've already seen that this will only embolden the message Kirk and his ilk have spread.

I believe that utter joke Lauren Boebert said something along the lines of silent prayers brings silent action, and it's obvious what message she is sending to the nutjobs on her side.

Well if she had the same views as her husband she can take some solace in the fact he was happy to die by a gun.

Wait a minute.

Did Kirk shoot and kill people?

Missed that.

He had no sympathy for victims of gun violence , calling empathy weakness. Posters on here are merely acting the way Mr Kirk would have wanted. He was happy for there to be deaths from guns. Hopefully he included himself in his rhetoric as then he'd have seen his death as necessary. Im not aware if he shot or killed anyone.

The worst thing about his death is it will further galvanize the morons that make up the Maga Cult.

The day before 9/11…

Hmmm…

Id imagine they are all nervous now tbh.

I think AOC/Sanders should cancel their upcoming tour dates, some nutters are going to be looking for retribution.
The shooter needs to be caught and maybe that might bring some calm to the situation/get some answers.

I’m glad I’m not that entrenched in culture/identity politics that I’m unable to have sympathy for someone being murdered in cold blood.

I don’t agree with his views but that doesn’t make murder ok.
