Salt n Vinegar Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 We probably all knew it was coming, but Trump has now gone full despot by appearing to adopt the "god on our side" gibberish. Expect to see him outside a church holding a bible any time now. Wonder if he ever goes inside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freedom Farter Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 2 hours ago, Freedom Farter said: Man who died from being shot at the Trump rally. The violence he cheered on abroad by his empire biting him at home where he thought he was untouchable. I'll expand on this as it relates to earlier comments in the thread. Comperatore's tweet there showed him revelling in the mass murder of civilians abroad by US empire. To support a huge empire you need a huge military. To support a huge military you need a militarised society. Thomas Crooks, the man who shot Comperatore, used an AR-15. That gun came from the Vietnam war. These school shootings are all done with a weapon first used to murder people abroad. US imperialism turning in on itself. Crooks had modified his gun into a sniper rifle. Perhaps he'd been inspired by the film American Sniper or some other cultural output needed to maintain popular consent for imperialism. Comperatore knew the rule that the violence is only supposed to target out-groups - not just abroad but also Black men by militarised police - so he was an avid backer of it. Yet it regularly turns in on itself and the in-group suffer too, with him victim this time. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Mark Halperin reporting that Biden is dropping out at the weekend, most likely Sunday. Not resigning the Presidency. Will praise but not endorse Harris. Will say he prefers an open conversation but won't endorse any individual candidate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won’t resign the Presidency because if he does he won’t be able to pardon Hunter, something he will do as soon as the election is over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight jacket and padded room stuff Cannot stress enough that this is HULK HOGAN doing a wrestling entrance and a promo at a POLITICAL PARTY CONVENTION WHERE THEY’RE NAMING THEIR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE We absolutely, 100% live in the stupidest, and probably funniest, timeline. Imagine going back to, say, 1995 and telling people about this. About Hulk Hogan introducing fascist Donald Trump in his campaign to become US president *again*. They'd have absolutely no way to process it, no way at all. It'd be telling some medieval peasant about the internet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I know he won't, was just posting what was reported. He should resign by the way, even if Harris is only president for a day, just so it pisses off Trump and his "Agenda 47" (he'd be the 45th and 47th President if elected) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One side committed some of the worst war crimes in history against an entire nation, whilst the other side fought for survival against this. Get to f**k with your liberal “both sides” bullshit. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotiaNostra Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Its funny how this time round Trump is hardly even able to stay in the news headlines for long from Biden mishaps, sports, IT outages. Hes been getting overshadowed quite quickly by other events 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black_and_White_Stripes Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 The Hulk Hogan appearance is hilarious! I mean, what sort of person would be influenced by the endorsement of a wrestler from the 1990s? It remind me a bit of some of the President in Idiocracy! How long before someone like Hulk Hogan actually runs for President? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
