POLITICAL THREAD

[bigblueinsanity]

Musk is a brilliant guy. What he’s turned Twitter into is abysmal by any measure. You can’t go and read any comments because they’re all porn bots or other bots posting meaningless garbage. Not to mention all the ads. He’s ruined it.

Describe how it was ruined. By any technical and objective user experience standard, its better. Probably exponentially better. Thats reflected in record high usage.

If you mean its ruined as a propaganda machine and beloved echo chamber of the left - thats true. But the algorithms should've never been weighted to begin with. Turns out most people dont actually believe the nonsense that drove social issues the years prior.

The GOP is so awful and clueless that no wonder we got Obama with options like McCain and Romney. This country was cooked regardless. “You want Democrat or a slightly less Democrat?”

I don't understand romney at all. Ok lets say he was governor of MA still and he has these weirdly conflicting positions where hes basically liberal except of his extremely conservative religious views. Weird but at least it kinda makes sense.

However being in utah there is absolutely no way to reconcile his positions. They make no logical sense at all unless there is some major financial incentive or something.

How the hell did he rise to governor of MA anyway? Thats bizarre in its own right.

Dude (dudette? I know I can’t assume…) just made a hell of a campaign commercial for the Trump team.

And further proof their agenda is no "Conspiracy Theory"

Well, he did have his own issues due to getting shot, and usually you give the family a few days to grieve and make their arrangements.

Oh,....and you're a dipshit.

Any leader worth a shit would have reached out almost immediately after a travesty, especially one of their own events, you know because that's a quality people typically like in a strong leader. You really think Trump isn't reaching out because he has the forethought of letting families grieve? LOL.

Trump has already been shown to be out in public already with his ear pad on, so dealing with his own issues is a piss poor excuse, scout.

 

[IdaCat]

Trump hasn't even reached out. Par for the course, though, he only cares about himself.

Did you pull that out of your TDS ass or hear it on The View?

Trump said he would be attending the funeral of Corey Comperatore who lost his life at the rally.

MLK and JFK's legacies have lived on far longer in death that it would have had they lived and grown old and died. Who's to say some scandal wouldn't have tainted MLK's legacy down the line or somebody wouldn't have come along and stole his thunder so to speak making him irrelevant. Maybe his death was God's way of cementing his legacy? Same for JFK? We aren't one to question why God does what God does. But that's just my opinion, and like all of us on here, we are allowed to have one. Your opinion on matters of Faith doesn't make others wrong or silly or imbecilic.

I guess it’s too bad God wanted them dead to help “cement their legacy”. I’m sure their families understand. Jesus, you’re not being serious are you?

Don’t forget his round of golf too which he’ll never miss.

He hasn't called the widow yet. Attending the funeral is a necessary gesture he has to make, but he couldn't do the part where he talks to someone out of the lime light/cameras.

I’m halfway expecting her to appear on Ellen, and win a free vacation to Punta Cana.

My suggestion is quit clicking and looking at porn if you don’t want it suggested to you.

And still with the freaking mask, outdoors too. Still going with the mask in 2024 is a dead giveaway that you will fall for whatever propaganda is spewed towards you.

You do know that a lot of people may think it poor taste to pile onto a family that has just had their lives ruined.

Not everything is about optics.

I wonder if Joe Biden attending the funeral is a necessary gesture, since it was ostensibly his idiotic rhetoric that caused this to happen.

What do you think?

A 'Republican' elected governor of Massachusetts - almost an oxymoron, right? Obviously in light of MA's way left bent, Romney was acceptable to enough voters in MA to win the governorship. That should tell you all you need to know about his politics. At best, he's left of center but I doubt seriously the majority of voters in MA would consider themselves 'left of center' (more like progressive or liberal) so the only reasonable conclusion to be made is they viewed him as 'liberal', which would fly in direct conflict with Republican. Jumbo shrimp? Conservative Democrat? Old news? Bittersweet? Working vacation? Surely none of them are better examples than 'liberal Republican'.

 

[gobigbluebell]

Also, FBI warns that violent extremists may try to retaliate.

That’s a given, and it will be sponsored by the FBI.

Yep. Even 1 minute would be enough for them to quickly call SS and tell him to get off the stage.

At a BARE minimum, law enforcement didn't care if he got shot and very possibly SS as well. He can't trust anybody. Watch your food, Trump.

I’d prefer to wade through idiotic ads than allow the largest speech platform on earth to push lies like Russia!, bleach!, kids in cages!, fine people! onto gullible folks. You may happen to know people this gullible.

I'd like to know how Kentucky has voted red in every presidential election since 2000 but votes for a Democrat as governor. So Lexington and Louisville can out number the state for governor but not president?

This is SO f'd up. Cheatle reports to Mayorkis..............

He needs to get private security for the rest of the campaign.

 

[AshWilliams]

Out of all of this it’s funny how you come off as a democrat.

Have you read your bragging and boasting of what a shooter you are? Congrats are in order sir!

And somehow that makes me the one with my head up my ass to smell my farts? Sir, I can smell them without having my head in my ass.

Go back to aiming your mess at the dems in the thread please, but please don’t shoot, you marksmen you!

OK I'll reconsider. It's possible that my attempt to give some perspective ended up looking too much like a flex. If that happened, then let me clarify that that wasn't my intention. I conceal carry and the thought of ever having to draw my gun in self defense is HORRIFYING. So yeah, I can't say I can relate to that psycho. I was just trying to give some idea of what the range actually is for a normal, competent marksman.

The only thing that changed is a natural algorithm rather than one weighted completely to the far left.

Political bots dont work anymore and those bot farms turned to porn to make money.

Doesn't matter how he got up there now that we know a cop saw the shooter THIRTY MINUTES before the shooting. That cop would have called SS and the event would have been shut down before it even started. I want to know if the cop DID notify Secret Service when he saw them. If he did, then this looks beyond fishy. If he didn't , he personally didn't care or whoever he called didn't care.

None of it is reassuring. It’s how conspiracy theories thrive.

Let’s face it- these same federal agencies spied on him, created a hoax trying to say he was under Russian control, launched wave after wave of legal attacks at him, while at the same time actively covering for the Biden family corruption detailed in the laptop.

It doesn’t look good.
