Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[DingDongKing]

Did you see the video of Guiliani's son being retarded in front of a bunch of cameras? He is still going on about Hunter Biden. Literally saying they took everything but the evidence against Hunter Biden LOL.

He can't even say politicisation. It's too long a word for the neanderthal.

[Kryctos]

Once again, it's time for Guess the Mango! Fuck! Dammit @Ripster42 you made me give the answer away.



Yep, that's Trump on FOX News (not like he's got another outlet) talking about Giuliani.

Quick question to, well @cubby of course but everyone else: when is "this person a patriot" a legal excuse to commit a crime? Because I don't think it's a legal excuse to commit a crime. Neither is "I was only following orders" just so we're clear.

I thought fox was fake news and the only real news were one OAN and newsmax according to the mango.

And you believed him?

Big words are for libcucks, dontcha know?

Nah just pointing out the obvious hypocrisy from the mango.

[Breccia]

As expected, the rabid fanbase are now trying to use "Biden is Boring" as an attack. Because when everything your chosen God Emperor does fails, your only defense is "yes, but at least it was fun to watch him fail!"

[Benggaul]

So, part of the rebuttal from the GOP was that "America is not a racist country".
...
I'm sure that'll go well for them.

I think it will play very well with the "AMERICA! Fuck Yeah!" crowd. That's kind of all they have left now, anyway.

The USA doesn't have serious racism problems as long as you pretend that Trump supporters didn't break into the capital carrying a confederate flag.

I will use this saying as many times as necessary.
"Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel."
(Wow, used it so much that if I type just "pat" my phone auto fills the whole thing from there.)

And will defend confederate monuments more than fellow Americans.

I'm trying to find out the price/cost/value of that awful statue of Nathan Bedford Forest to see if I can figure out a rough estimate on what value they place on human life, but it's surprisingly difficult.

It's like so unfair and ... it's like a double standard like I don't think anybody's ever seen before. It's very, very unfair. Rudy is a patriot who loves this country.

So far patriotism hasn't been a modern excuse to get away with committing a crime, as jurors have sent people committing acts of mass violence and death (see also insurrection; Boston Bombing, Las Vegas Mass Shooting, etc) to jail and the gas chamber.

Interestingly, I hope Rudi is fucking dumb enough to use the "I was only following orders" excuse - because that will put Trump directly in the cross hairs. And, as pointed out earlier, Rudi is dumb enough not to rid himself of his electronic files - so that raid probably found all the goodies.

I cannot imagine a worse thing for a lawyer to do, than rat out their client as one of their co-conspirators. Oh, I don't mean "it's unethical" or anything. I mean "they're so completely fucked that they're willing to waive privilege".

[Felya]

And will defend confederate monuments more than fellow Americans.

I’m trying a new tact... agree that during the civil war, confederates were technically Democrats. Then, argue why they want these democrat statues to be saved?

Agreed.

And, just to be technical here, because that's what you pay me for, it's not that the attorney in question is willing to waive privilege (because it's never their choice), it's that their actions are so criminal and tied to their clients actions, they lose the right to privilege.

[Breccia]

they lose the right to privilege.

Wow. This is beyond "double fucked". I had no idea it was that bad, and I already knew it was bad.

U.S. faces COVID-19 vaccine surplus as demand slows--Go back and read what I wrote about vaccination rates. I think we know why there's low demand now overall. (Hint: It's not because everyone's been vaccinated.)

U.S. to send more than $100 million in COVID supplies to India--The US has been criticized for not sharing with less fortunate countries, so this is a start. I'm more of the mind that one should "secure their own oxygen mask before assisting others", but it's good to see this administration having a more positive attitude towards foreign aid.

Stay safe, folks.

Easy Fix make it so Medicaid and Medicare will not pay any benefits related to covid unless you've been vaccinated.

then allow hospitals to refuse care if you've not been vaccinated.

Should take care of about 90% of that hesitant population

I'm uncomfortable with the first given that there will inevitably be a lot of people unable to get the vaccine for legit reasons and I'm pretty sure the second goes against the Hippocratic Oath, so not sure Doctors and nurses would be on board.

Oh there can be exceptions, but at this point in many states its hard not to be able to get it if you qualify.

Im not sure if the stick is the right approach maybe mlb and nfl, nascar can offer reduced admissions to sporting events like discount coupons at hospitals to drive vaccinations and at the same time fill their benches.
Same could apply to other venues like concert halls or restaurants that rely on ppl traffic to make$. They promote health by encouraging vaccines and bring in customers
