President Trump on Rep. Tlaib: "Yesterday, I notice for the first time, Tlaib with the tears. All of a sudden, she starts with tears. I don't buy it…I've seen her in a very viscous mood at campaign rallies...I saw a woman that was violent and vicious and out of control." pic.twitter.com/4j2GgG5Ksn

Tlaib doesn't do campaign rallies

I know we do this every week but holy shit does this guy project hard

I hope he really said "viscous"

which kind of makes it sound like he got drunk and hallucinated her at one of his rallies

still waiting to see how AIPAC will spin this. hopefully a little better than RJC did

President Trump is right, it shows a great deal of disloyalty to oneself to defend a party that protects/emboldens people that hate you for your religion. The @GOP, when rarely confronted w/anti-Semitism of elected members always acts swiftly and decisively to punish and remove. https://t.co/mEBgd84qkf

am I wrong here? if you watch the CSPAN video I swear he says he used to see Tlaib at his campaign rallies "before she was a congresswoman"

rob, Tuesday, 20 August 2019 21:04 (four years ago) link

yes he did!

Judging from my 120 minutes of sustained arguing with rightist hordes on Twitter this morning, Dems are (a) the real racists (b) baby killers (c) anti-Semites.

mookieproof, Tuesday, 20 August 2019 21:44 (four years ago) link

the only ways in which the Right "cares" about racism/anti-semitism/any bigotry are 1) to use as a "I know you are but what am I!" political cudgel and 2) it super hurts their feelings to have ppl they loathe label them something they feel has been termed into a meaningless label. Like it's so obv when they pretend to give 2 shits about "the Blacks" (looky, we gave them all jobs! hey, got off the Dem Plantation!) or any other grp they themselves have marginalized. Fucking evil fucks ugh.

Denmark is a very special country with incredible people, but based on Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen’s comments, that she would have no interest in discussing the purchase of Greenland, I will be postponing our meeting scheduled in two weeks for another time....

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 20, 2019


....The Prime Minister was able to save a great deal of expense and effort for both the United States and Denmark by being so direct. I thank her for that and look forward to rescheduling sometime in the future!

is not chlorofluorocarbon gases in aerosol sprays and refrigerator coolant that decides to float up into the stratosphere and destroy the ozone layer, it's humans that decide to use those products. but yet, we just banned the fuck out of most CFCs and the problem was (largely) addressed

“Thank you to Wayne Allyn Root for the very nice words. “President Trump is the greatest President for Jews and for Israel in the history of the world, not just America, he is the best President for Israel in the history of the world...and the Jewish people in Israel love him....

....like he’s the King of Israel. They love him like he is the second coming of God...But American Jews don’t know him or like him. They don’t even know what they’re doing or saying anymore. It makes no sense! But that’s OK, if he keeps doing what he’s doing, he’s good for.....

My proposal to the politically correct Automobile Companies would lower the average price of a car to consumers by more than $3000, while at the same time making the cars substantially safer. Engines would run smoother. Very little impact on the environment! Foolish executives!
