Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[PhaelixWW]

I'm honestly expecting to wake up to news of a political assassination, or at least attempts, made against Democrats.

TBH, over the last year or so, the first time I check the news each day I'm halfway expecting news of some political assassination, regardless of party identity.

I'm aware that many posters attended the "Fuck Off" school of political discussion (and I've been reliably informed that this is not flaming, non-constructive, or trolling). So I can only say that I don't personally consider this a constructive contribution, and I hope in future that you can present political arguments aimed outside of personal attacks on the individuals arguing it.

You support a Nazi Pedophile who is stripping peoples rights away, You and your Nazi Pedophile can fuck off.

The "opinion" of a Nazi Pedophile piece of shit and the people who supports him means less than wet toilet paper.

Edit: One less Nazi in the world, Good.

Trump is promising a crackdown on 'political violence" while blaming the 'radical left' for it all.

We can all see where this is going. Very reichstag fire moment.

You can't "crack down" on political violence without committing political violence.

That's what a "crackdown" is. Political violence.

As always, it's "our political violence against our enemies is good and just, our enemies' political violence against us is terrible and bad". It's never about principle, it's just "we have power, and we'll use it against you."

God I hope the state authorities are the ones looking into this and not the feds. Betting they largely are afraid to catch them for fear of it being like the attempts on Trump and being one of their own again.

If it’s the feds, good chance they will try and bury it the moment that looks to be the case.

I read even Nick Fuentes called Kirk out for towing the Trump line on the Epstein files.

I think Putin's government is about as loyal to Putin as the GOP is to Trump: fine while he's winning, knives out when he's killing his own country.

Both are already doing a bang up job of killing their respective countries, neither GOP nor putin's government are doing much...

this is why i laugh at tehdangs pearl clutching

he demands we be better than republicans, while being remarkably silent when said republicans act like he says not to.

It's easy to be better than republicans, just don't support fucking kids or fuck kids. Oh, and don't be a terrorist. It's that easy, by the time I've woken up I'm better than any republican.

It's like when they condemn you for your "far-left extremist principles". You mean, like, empathy for my fellow human beings? Thinking everyone should be able to live life comfortably and in safety? Oooooh, scary.

I'm not a perfect human being, by any means, but it's really not hard to at least try and be a decent person. Conseratives just reject that wholesale as "wokeism" or whatever, and relish being awful and sadistically cruel as their central ideological tentpoles. But sure, it's the "leftists" that are the problem.

When you have to ask things like "when did Mr. Rogers/Sesame Street get woke?", the reality is that you grew up to be a bad person. It's that cut and dry.

While it makes sense logically that an assassination of a popular conservative figure would be someone who opposes him it dosent make sense when you think about it, what "gun hating soft iffeminate liberal" is going to be able to shoot a high caliber weapon that accurately 400 yards away? Usually if its a crime of passion they want to be caught and given the attention/release whatever their manifesto is, this shooter just dissapears. Maybe this is schizo but after trump bombed iran fbi warned about terror plots, iran knows it can get trump himself so they go after one of his allies? Even if it was domestic Both trump shooters werent even left wing politically. I think its ridiculous every republican is blaming democrats for a shooter we have no idea about

[Zaydin]

I'm wondering how long it's going to be until they start trying to equate Kirk with Martin Luther King, Jr and demanding a holiday in his honor.

The difference being that MLK made the US a better place in his fight against racism in the South, fighting to get things like the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act passed and the world was made a worse place when he was assassinated by a racist conservative Southerner.

Charlie Kirk, meanwhile, was Charlie Kirk.

I think the profile of political shooters is usually mentally ill people who have hopped between both sides of the aisle multiple times.

I don't understand why people keep trying to say that every shooter is always mentally ill.

Humanity did just fine killing each other for a long ass time without it being considered a mental illness.

It's so they don't have to think that actual cruel evil fucktards are part of their group.

Especially when one side seem to have a significantly higher amount of actual cruel evil fucktards amongst them compared to the other.

See, those people tend to become cops and kill minorities or just abuse their wives and children.

Also I don't think mental illness gives someone absolution. Not all mental illness includes psychosis. People can be mentally ill and very much aware of what they are doing and why they are doing it.

Point being that killing someone doesn't require you to be mentally ill.

I'd say there is a difference between manslaughter and a political assassination so I don't think your statement has value in the context of what you are responding to?

Political assassination requires you to be even less mentally ill than just snapping and shooting someone after an argument.

Assassinating someone takes capacity for long term planning, which is less common in people who are suffering from actual acute mental health issues like psychosis or schizophrenia.

Lovely, which is why criminal activity is often associated with personality disorders, not with psychosis. Personality disorders rarely impede your capacity for planning.

Killing someone doesn't require you to have a personality disorder either.

Planning a political assassination means you either believe you can get away with it, which suggests some type of disorder for sure (the intrinsic belief that they can get away with crime makes all criminals at least to some extent distressed mentally) or means you believe that killing said person is worth your own freedom and possibly life.
