Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Benggaul]

They were.

Not only that, but there are multiple documented instances of the peaceful protesters calling out the rioters (or, more likely, people pretending to riot to sabotage the protests) and PREVENTING them from damaging property and/or handing them over to the police. The thing you are responding to is happy to ignore things like that though since it doesn't fit its narrative.

[Belize]

Do you support all the recent violence? Is that the kind of person you are?

No, I don't support the police murdering citizens without cause, and violating people's 1st Amendment rights by brutalizing peaceful protests and cause permanent bodily injuries.

Do you?

"The President did not quell it, he escalated it. His heavy-handed tactics led to a serious injury and enflamed an already tense situation." - Ted Wheeler (Mayor of Portland)

Mayor of Portland blames Trump for defending the Federal Courthouse and escalating violence in Portland. The world has gone mad.

Trump has done exactly that or did you forget when he told his zealots to attack others and he would pay their legal fees? I mean really to even think Trump HASN'T done it is asinine at best.

Yeah...rather than confront the rioters, he should just let them burn it all down. Got it.

Damn, you people are still on about the rioters. Why don't we talk about the MAGAbomber while we're at it or the dozens of other right wing terrorists. Oh wait, that doesn't fit your tired narrative.

If you were truly a "peaceful" protester, wouldn't you be far, far away from the violent ones?

If you were a trained cop wouldn't you be able to tell which is which?

No one supports the riots, the only ones support police violence are crazies, and the only ones supporting Trump having protestors gassed are Trumpsters.

Implying cops get training in the U.S.

It's not like they are hairdressers and need more training.

So the Donald Trump buys the Yacht for 29 million, because why not.

You will almost always lose money reselling a boat/yacht.
Same with a car.

Because CNN isn't the left side of Fox - so in CNN pushing such a stark headline, we're seeing a trend in how the msm is treating the Dear Leader. I just haven't seen such a strong headline from them, at least recently. For instance, instead of using "lying" they use "mistruths" or other such non-blatant words.

Don't get me wrong, I like the trend. Trump deserves what he's sown.

CNN? Have you watched the Terry Crews Don Lemon interview?

You see how crazy people get without being able to go to a hairdresser for a couple months? No wonder they get so much training.

You do not typically lose a third of the value +the cost of the refit in three years. That ship is worth a hell of a lot more then 20 million now, and it has been sailing for over 40 years now. He sold the ship because he was going bankrupt, so don't pretend this was a smart business move.

You idol has been a failure at everything he has ever done. The yacht thing isn't particularly important in the grand scheme of things, but it is interesting how many connections to Saudi Oligarchs he has, isn't it?

Three things:

1) Goldman Sachs says 80% of small businesses that got PPP funds will run out of money by August.

2) They found a squirrel with the motherfucking bubonic plague in the US.

3) Four former CDC heads wrote this OP ED saying Trump damaged the country by undermining the agency they each once lead.

Also, as a sidenote...remember who you're replying to.

From an outside perspective the police were the rioters.

Squirrels,prairie dogs, and sundry other rodents are natural carriers of the plague,kinda like armadillos and leprosy.

Plague ... must be a slow day for Hill.com

Plenty of trailheads post warnings in the western US.

Most people don't realize almost all vehicles are NOT assets, more accurately, they are depreciating assets.

CNN? Have you watched the Terry Crews Don Lemon interview?

Why? One interview program does not define a news organization.

CNN is not the "left" version of Fox. You only think that because you were told to believe it.

Kinda depends on the yacht. Some things are always in demand like fancier catameran's and a lot of status symbol type yachts keep pretty good value because there is always some new scrambling up and comer who wants to look like he made it.

"Really successful coach," Trump said of Tuberville, whom he's vigorously endorsed in the race against his former attorney general Jeff Sessions. "Beat Alabama, like six in a row, but we won't even mention that. As he said ... because of that, maybe we got 'em Lou Saban ... And he's great, Lou Saban, what a great job he's done."

Now I'm not gonna say that Trump getting the first name of a legendary college football coach wrong is a big deal, it's not. But from what I know it's a big deal to many in Alabama, or would be if anyone else had gotten Saban's first name wrong.

More just another amusing moment in the long history of Trump not knowing who the people he's supposed to be campaigning for are.

This is the sort of gaff that is a totally normal Presidential gaff. Pretty much all presidents have lists of things like this.

Most of them do not retweet British Facist groups, or call on armed mobs to "liberate" state governments.

I miss when these gaffes were considered scandalous : (

There are plenty of examples of police acting brutally against people who weren't rioters. Like the old man they knocked over, causing him to bleed on the sidewalk as they ignored him. Or the peaceful protesters they gassed, on Trump's order, so he could cross a street and have his photo taken holding a bible at a church where he wasn't welcomed.

Meh, this one is a bit of a nothingberder. "The Black Death" is treatable with simple antibiotics nowadays and is easily survivable and critters have been carriers all over the globe forever.

Now, as far as FLORIDA goes....just over 9k new cases reported today and their highest ever death total: 132.
Fucked = Florida.
