It is hard to fathom how they could think that everyone in the world in working together on a false narrative and only Trump is telling the truth

Eh. You can scan through r/asktrumpsupporters any day, and see some version of "Yeah, he says stupid shit. Get over it. It doesn't affect my support - he's better than the alternative and I like what he's doing."

I mean you can also see the "the lying media is lyingly lying to you" attitude, but the "Trump's gonna Trump" faction is also strong.

This Canadian just got a mini history lesson on the meaning of Juneteenth and the significance of Tulsa. That's as bad as Reagan's 1980 kickoff.

(Worse, considering present circumstances.)

clemenza, Wednesday, 10 June 2020 21:58 (six years ago)

sadly like many people in the US I credit the Watchmen series for even informing me of Tulsa.

Hopefully he will be met with massive demonstrations.

I suspect he’s counting on them

See above re: pissing off the right people

Troll the libs, get a reaction, say something about triggered snowflakes, lather, rinse, repeat

Tom Paine in the membrane (Ye Mad Puffin), Wednesday, 10 June 2020 22:29 (six years ago)

Or: maybe that is where he will give his unifying speech on race!

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 10 June 2020 22:33 (six years ago)

Torn between calling up another blonde OANN anchor to come work in the White House or bellowing for more KFC.

Trump's all out of faith
This is how he feels

You're a little late
He's already torn

Tom Paine in the membrane (Ye Mad Puffin), Thursday, 11 June 2020 17:54 (six years ago)

DONALD JOHN TRUMP is all out of faith. This is how he feels. He's cold and he is shamed, lying naked on the floor.

same energy as this (https://www.chicagotribune.com/opinion/ct-xpm-2011-03-21-ct-talk-huppke-hookup-20110321-story.html):

It's like teaching a young man to hunt by having him hold an arrow and then throwing the deer at his hand.

Trump misquoting Santayana this morning ("THOSE THAT DENY THEIR HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT!"--I haven't read Santayana, but I'm guessing he didn't write in all caps); the correct version not ideal for him heading into an election anyway.

clemenza, Thursday, 11 June 2020 18:13 (six years ago)

you can't fool trump; there ain't no Santa Yana!

It was the bumper stickers on the back of the late-model Toyota Tacoma that made me do it. They showed what seemed to be a political evolution of sorts, mirroring one that many Americans may be having in 2020: from a 2000 sticker for John McCain’s failed presidential campaign to a sticker supporting Mitt Romney’s candidacy in 2012 to ones supportive of then-Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson in 2016 and former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg in 2020.

And in the middle, a handwritten sign stating “Black Lives Matter.”


...

This week, 26-year-old Nathan, the owner of the truck, gave me the answers.

It's actually a good interview!

I know a few people like this: McCain and Romney voters who have been "fucking internal screaming for almost four years."

xp does it explain why he was driving a truck and supporting McCain aged 6?

yes it does

an, uh, razor of love (sic), Thursday, 11 June 2020 20:57 (six years ago)

'The Republican Party's 2020 platform is exactly the same as its 2016 platform. That means it condemns the “current” president — who in 2016 was, of course, Barack Obama — and calls the White House a risk to "the survival of the internet."'

an, uh, razor of love (sic), Thursday, 11 June 2020 20:57 (six years ago)

It actually does but the original image as presented in this thread is still hilarious

zomg, Melania hung back in NY at the start of this administration because she was renegotiating her prenup! zomg, John Bolton's book will be packed with revelations that Trump did shitty things! zomg, Trump is an isolated relic! So much reporting going on right now, so much!

God what a relief it will be (for a week at least, I hope) when this motherfucker is dead and the whole country can just take a shower and a nap.
