Good for you Liz, don't back down EVER!!!! (Okay, not a fan of Liz' either, but she would be far more acceptable in polite company than the orange turd.)
Lindsey Graham said "Don't listen to her" and "she's not a conservative." So... if you're a conservative man, we should care about death threats directed toward you, but if you're not, fuck you.
Trump is a shit stain but this is not accurate. He was saying that, if she supports the war, then she should see what it's like to be on the front lines with guns pointed at her. Trump has said more than enough vile things to lose this election. We don't need to take things out of context like this.
I find it sad, nobody here has said they like trump, but all the posts explaining how this particular quote is out of context and providing sources are all being down voted and all the posts that are simply insults and slurs are all up voted.
Just want to point out - the term banana republic comes from countries that the US destabilized politically in order to protect corporate economic interests, and companies' ability to exploit their workers. See the United Fruit Company, now known as Chiquita Brands International; or the Standard Fruit Company, now known as Dole Food Company.
He said she's a "war hawk" who wants to go to war. He basically said "what if we give her a gun and then there's 9 guns pointed back at her head" It's ain't great, but it's not what some are holding it up to be.
He was saying Liz Cheney is a war hawk and let's see how she would like it if the guns were trained on her face instead. Very crass but not saying "hey y'all let's shoot Liz Cheney"
His stochastic terrorism works exactly like this. The trick is to suggest without stating explicitly, so some inbred goat fucker will do actual violence, so it's hard to pin it on him. RE: Paul Pelosi and J6.
I don't fucking care at this point. He has nothing of value to say, and hasn't had any for decades. How many decades you might ask? Uh, what year was he born?
ARREST THE PRICK! OH MY GOD! I got temporarily lifted because a psycho stalker made up tales and my phone wasn't working. Because I am male. PTSD-ridden and terrified. Put. Him. AWAY!
I'd say thats pretty damned direct. People keep making excuses for their Deranged Orange and I'm tired of letting the BS slide. If a pedophile jokes about fucking a kid, you dont take it as a joke.
Right up until putin asks Trump to nuke Ukraine for being difficult, and China agrees to give Russia that river back if they get Trump to pull US defences from Taiwan. An that's how the commies win, because the US voted republican
this is one of those posts where I was like 99% sure it was satire (based on what you pointed out), but yeah Trump is telling his supporters she belongs in front of a firing squad (his words) and he definitely suffers from Daffy Duck disease, as well as tertiary syphilis, so yeah some valid points here.
and his spokesperson had the gall to say this was an attempt to help the Harris campaign. not denying he said it or that he meant something else or downplay the call for political violence. nope, all they had to say for themselves was a complete non-answer.
Based on the full quote it sounds l like Trump was criticizing her wanting to go to war, and said let's give her a rifle and send her out (along with the troops) and see how she responds when 9 barrels are shooting at her. Trump is a POS, but imgur is not a good place to get your facts from. This website lies about as bad as twitter and facebook.
Rifles. Riffle is a shoal under choppy water, or is the choppy water over the shoal, or is also the short wave or ripple motion. I had to spell check my friend's writing in college and that was his most common typo for some unknown reason.
Not exactly. If you listen to the conversation, I know, that sucks. But what he's talking about is him calling her a "war hawk". So he was referring to her saying we should send soldiers into war zones. And he was saying, if she had to face the same situation, having guns pointed at her like the soldiers do, she would be less willing to say we should be in wars. The issue, is he talks like an idiot. But if you listen to the whole thing, you can make out what he's saying. This rolls back to
Yes, I know what he was intending to say was “war hawk politicians wouldn’t be so pro-war if they had to fight it personally.” But he was describing a firing squad, not a battle. He jumped track into fantasizing about having her executed.
He didn’t start there, but he got there. The only question is if this is dementia Donny getting his wires crossed or did he do it on purpose? Either way he’s unfit.
Nope. Stop defending him. Stop ‘well tecknicuhlly’ defending. Everyone knows what he meant’ “oh woe is me this person is dangerous to my desires wont someone do something even though i didnt explicitly say it” he is doing that.
You have my respect for trying to add nuance here on imgur. You try to mellow an extreme take factually and before you know it ppl jump on you for being too soft on evil.
Naw. That's shite mate. What he says is what he means. And he's a goddamn senile, nasty old dithering rapist, child-molesting, lying, treasonous piece of utter human WASTE. And all of his followers are just as disgusting, traitorous, treasonous WANKERS as him. There is NO good outcome with the shite - he'll grind you all underfoot if you don't stop him. The WORLD knows it. Get him to fuck - and lock the convicted felon prick UP.
I get what you are saying, but in this case, people are leaving out the full statement of what he says. If they quoted what he said fully, that fair. But that's not what they are doing. They are cutting off what he says right before, and after this. I'm voting Harris. But I don't think cutting this quote out of context will convince one single person. I personally would focus on his enemy within comments. That doesn't need to have the full context left out. Whatever though. You guys keep doing
You mean the context of him regularly using violent rhetoric and calling for violence. That very same context that establishes a pattern of him likely meaning what he said but being too senile to make it palletable to those outside his cult. Im all for giving people the benefit of the doubt but as many MAGA state you're in America, speak English. If you're running the country people should be able to take you at your word without a sanity translator perverting your intentions for their gain.
I get what you’re saying (I have checked for context in his speeches a load of times) but the point is, a presidents words DO matter. No part of them should easily be taken out of context. A president should be diligent, tight-lipped, organized, dedicated, competent, and communicate quickly and effectively. Don’t normalize laziness. +1
I'm not normalizing it. I'm saying people should include the full context. I said he's an idiot. But do you agree leaving out the sentence right before, and the one right after, change it quite a bit?
It’s a bullshit move, I agree, but it’s been thoroughly researched over the last several hundreds of years, and we now train our lawyers and judges extensively in communication: choosing their words wisely, avoiding logical fallacies, using language that represents all Americans as best as they can, etc. This is the person trying to represent my entire country to the world. Their words shouldn’t be flung around like turds in a zoo.
It does not at all. The context is that weak minded MAGA morons listen to this, and will carry out his command, REGARDLESS of what came before or after.
No. It's not my job to infer what he's saying or "make it out". This is his quote "Let's put her with a rifle standing there, with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let's see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face." I'm not going to give him the benefit of the doubt. It's not hyperbole. He's not joking.
Thats not the full quote though. "Trump called Cheney “a deranged person” and added, “But the reason she couldn’t stand me is that she always wanted to go to war with people. If it were up to her we’d be in 50 different countries.”
The former president continued: “She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with the rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her. OK, let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face...."
Honestly, I think he does it on purpose. He knows when he talks like this the media will report it in the least favorable light, and then when people look up what he actually said they go "okay, that's bad. But even though I hate what he said, I hate being lied to even more".
I'm convinced if the media just reported the full quote each time, Trump would lose in a landslide. But because the race is now "Who do you distrust more, Trump or the Media?" Trump has a good shot at winning again.
Apologies for the nitpick but you used possessive instead of plural describing his suckers and losers comments when talking about troops killed for protecting US freedoms.
