Donald Trump

Thank fuck that debate was not end of September.

Lots of Trump fuckkery between now and November to come.
What Trump did to Biden on Thursday night is a rhetorical device that has a formal name, though I suspect he comes by it naturally. It's called the "Gish Gallop", first used I believe in the 1990s. It involves throwing out a rapid stream of lies, non-sequiturs and specious arguments that become hard to rebut or fact-check because of the volume of the nonsense being churned out and because each item is unrelated to the others. It's intended to throw the recipient off balance and make them look confused. It's said to be particularly effective on someone with a stutter. Trump previously tried it on Biden in debate in 2020 but on that occasion each candidate had their mics turned on while the other was speaking and Biden was able to say "will you just shut up, man?", which I remember resonated well with the audience. On Thursday the fact that Biden's mic was muted when Trump was carrying on actually worked to Trump's advantage as it allowed him to spew the whole mess out uninterrupted.


(I know the answer to this fucker's fuckery, but sadly it wouldn't get Biden re-elected.)
 
Actually started a thread on this very topic eight years ago:


And the situation has unquestionably got far worse since. Not saying it will definitely happen, but I think it’s likely and becoming increasingly so.

If trump gets in the west will break apart not just the States
 
Looks like we will have to endure this twat for another almost 5 yrs. The rest of the world will abide, just let them cut off themselves from reality for a while
