Okay, why post it twice?

Trump dog whistling to the violent part of his supporters. Now I can here the counter argument, Trump is just asking if Biden is in some way incapacitated and Kamala must become President. But, Trump did not say "sick or heart attack" he said "shot" as the first thing that came to his mind.

I'm as willing to believe the worst of Trump as anybody, but I heard that and to me it sounded more like he meant 'shot' as in 'worn out' or 'no good anymore', like 'my right knee's shot, it's almost bone on bone now.'.

That’s what he meant, but here’s the issue: it’s easy for someone who’s not sound of mind and pro Trump to misinterpret it as someone who is anti Trump. And it’s not like the US has a clean history of no attempts on politicians’ lives.

If he really meant that (and I could be convinced either way) then he would have gone with his old trope of name calling Biden as Sleepy Joe or some other insult.

Just last week someone got arrested for wanting to kill Biden.

Donald Trump Jr. has been asking on tweeter for an "army" for his father not to mention the white supremacists domestic terrorists like the proud boys standing by like Trump told them to.

A Trump rally left dozens behind waiting hours for buses or walking miles to a nearby place to stay warm, about ten people had hypothermia.

Serves them right. Their Gods & Guns can keep them warm.

Cult leaders often screw over their followers.

We were talking about this earlier and I thought "Man, what would happen if Biden did this? What would happen if Obama did this?"

Then I remembered "oh wait, they both had rallies recently and everyone was in their car".

I swear everything this moron has done always backfires massively.

"It was 34 degrees when President Donald Trump ended his campaign rally in Omaha...Over the course of the next four hours, thousands of Trump rally attendees were stranded outside of the event." https://t.co/SNuge1h1O9

The image of Trump bussing in people for the photo op (did we mention COVID-19) and then leaving them in the cold is so on Trump brand.

That's even stupider than standing on the deck of an aircraft carrier claiming all combat operations in Iraq are over while insurgencies and terrorists are sprouting like weeds in the desert (if the desert had weeds.)

Depends what you mean by weeds, but yeah, the desert has them.

The things I listed are all true.

1. Trump's debt was forgiven by Kennedy's son at Deutsche Bank.
2. Kennedy retired, giving up his SCOTUS seat.
3. Kavanaugh had a mountain of debt that suddenly disappeared with no real explanation.
4. Kavanaugh has delivered favorable decisions for Trump where it mattered.

Whether or not there's a connection between them is what's being delved into right now.

Of course it could all just be a series of coincidences.

No. There was some explanation. All the debt was caused by him buying (checks notes) season tickets for baseball on his credit card and his friends paying him back.

So Biden and Obama only hold rallies for rich people that have cars? Trump is a man of the people and lets everyone attend! (and then ignores them after he gets what he wants)

This is my smugface.

Back when malarkey was hardly stark
this is how we shopped for new laptop parts
and if it needs fixin at the PC shop
then I will, ditch it and complain to pops
that my addiction has made me awfully soft
and if he, digs in as hes often taut
and he'll be lit then as a paltry toff
askin for eighty five dollars but hell probably scoff
and the media's spinning
but theyre starting to leak minor
girls in my photos and they starting to speak
Then in a couple of minutes my dad's campaign is finished

The buses were used by Trump, to get people there. Including to a parking lot they used, 4 miles away. Cops were literally driving people to their cars, because once Trumo got out, they couldn’t give a fuck. All they cared is about getting big numbers, no shits given about what happens after.

I know that's sarcasm, but in context the Biden rally to which I refer was basically a giant manufacturer's union. Unions like Biden okay, but more importantly in context, they hate being out of work because the trade war with China is killing their business and NAFTA 1.0.0.2 didn't help.

I was in Kuwait a few years ago. It was like fucking Tatooine lol.

They can pull themselves up from their bootstraps and get their own help. How is it the government's fault they didn't consider how they'd go home? They should be responsible for themselves and not depend on the government.

Can't even safely organize a rally.

Being asked for 4 more years of running the country.

The latest NYT article is pretty interesting. Apparently Trump sued Deutsche Bank and settled with them in 2010 with the bank forgiving 270 million of his 640 million debt.

I find it interesting that this specific bank took such a heavy legal and financial hit from Trump, because this is not the first time Deutsche Bank has come up in Trump-related stories, and every single time they actually protected him. Like, if they are covering for him after this, what the fucking hell else are they hiding.

If Trump loses we will probably hear a lot more about this bank.

That kinda shit is why US banks refuse to touch him and why he's had to find financing abroad. Seriously, I have a family member who works in finance doing multi-million/billion dollar loans and shit and this is apparently widely known in the banking/finance industry in the US. At least for the older folks who have been around through Trump's business life.

Gotta wonder why DB would keep working with a guy given that he's such a huge financial liability for them.

That would be Deutsche's point man Justin Kennedy, son of SCOTUS Anthony Kennedy. He kept pushing for DB to approve of projects by Trump and Kushner families...
But when laundering large amounts of cash, making money isnt the point.

Somehow this isnt the leading story about nepotism gone wrong in 2020.
