US Politics Thread

We are at the stage where someone gets shot and then gets criticised for playing the victim.

The irony of it that he is instinctively a bully and a narcissist, a coward who dodged service in Vietnam, and a liar and rapist to boot. He now gets to play hero and victim when there's been nothing heroic in his life and has harmed many people who've been victims of his greed.

Read his niece Mary's book about him. It gets to the heart of what Trump is.

Read his niece Mary's book about him. It gets to the heart of what Trump is.

It's a very good book.

It's safe to say, she absolutely hates him.

Watching Meidastouch on YouTube highlighting some of the utterly bat shit crazy stuff now coming out from MAGA gun toting scumbags like Joni Earst, Will Brook and MTG and Kemp shooting copies of Obamacare (ACA), straight after an assassination attempt.
It really defies belief

Biden knows he's lost now but still won't stand down.

"I'm touring the country to tell you what my record has been" in a meek voice.

Stand down son and let someone else take over who can't be used by the GOP for batshit conspiracy theories from his mates accusing the current president of ordering the assassination of a former one.

Whether he should or not, whoever is running is going to be accused of orchestrating the assassination attempt -- it could be Jamie Dimon or Nicholas Cage or fucking Shakira running and somehow the looneys would find a way to connect the blue candidate to the "plot" -- have you learned nothing the last several years?

Yeah . . . "now."

It doesn't defy belief in the slightest. Sadly.

Unfortunately this has given him the perfect platform to present himself as the hero/victim which I suspect is more comfortable for him than discussing policy or his personal failings.

How the word "suspect" snuck in there is beyond me. Of course you're right, of course it does. He doesn't care about policy save the populist impacts that accrue to his own self-aggrandization, and he doesn't have any personal failings; just ask him.

What makes this stuff even more horrendous is that there are people out there who don't add any weight or take seriously the absolute notion that these oddball theories don't carry any weight, people believe ANYTHING these days and can find a nut to back their opinion up.

Remember the 2016 election with their "fact check" slogan from news channels, like journalists and news organisations are the arbiters of truth?

Journalists and news outlets staffed by journalists are more responsible, and have to deliver facts by the nature of their job. The ones who find 'ANYTHING' to back stuff up are the unregulated ones that people like to feel validated by, and do this by saying they are engaging in research, away from the very vaccuous term they use, MSM. News is factual events, journalism is source based work around that, the rest is nonsense that spawns the kind of shit we saw around Nicola Bulley and the kid in Tenerife
