It’d be bad enough if this was just the Toddler-in-chief being petty, but it’s a sure bet that it’s not - that he’s very pointedly and deliberately telling his violent racist supporters to kill her.
He’s very pointedly telling the rest of the Democratic Party that he controls the police and the military.
And they’re getting the message. I fully anticipate the next Congressional session will see conservative Dems falling over themselves to appease him.
Which makes gun controller’s arguments against civilian militias (because states have the national guard) moot. If they answer to the state they’re not really in a position to challenge it. People are gonna learn some hard truths about power whether they want to or not. Politicians are not going to stop this.
Which they already are, so I guess they’ll just do more of that.
As a Democrat, I hope this sends home the message that gun control isn’t your friend. Obviously nobody is pro gun-violence, but since neither party gives a fuck about mental health, that’s not going to change anyway.
If you’re a Democrat and you’re not armed, you’re part of the problem and have helped to enable Trump. Kamala herself knows this, she’s a former prosecutor and has talked about that in the past.
And yes, I know that sucks. I’m not saying any of this with glee.
Yes people that feel comfortable with it should absolutely be training with firearms right now.
If you’re a Democrat and you’re not armed, you’re part of the problem and have helped to enable Trump
This is crazy nonsense. There’s a million other ways to provide support and never pick up a firearm. Even if we were in a hot civil war there would be plenty of value in other forms of support.
Look to Ukraine for some understanding of things. Yes back end support is important in war, but people being armed and willing to fight is more important.
As Leftist in the states continue to disarm they’ll continue to allow themselves to be treaded on. It’s our job to be armed and stay trained and prepared.
So you and your gun fucker friends take back our country? This is it. Time to act. But wait… Y’all aren’t doing a thing except blaming non gun owners for allowing this to happen. A coward with a gun is still just a coward.
If you’re a Democrat and you’re not armed, you’re part of the problem
It’s a very small piece of a much larger puzzle.
An event that he can use to formally declare martial law and suspend elections.
Win/win for these ghouls.
Clarification guys and gals:
When the Vice president leaves office, they usually get protection for 6 months unlike the president that gets protection for life.
Biden granted Harris extended protection for whatever reason.
Trump cancelled Biden’s order… resulting in Harris going back to standard 6 months of protection.
Trump is still an asshat for this and he has a history of cancelling protection for those he holds a grudge against.
Still a dick move.
Biden granted Harris extended protection for whatever reason.
The assassin who targeted Trump in Butler also had his sights on Biden and other prominent Democrats. It’s not unreasonable to think that he might have had her best interests at heart considering the extremely tense political climate following those events and how she was elevated to center stage when he dropped out the race.
Perfect summation. Thank you.
Biden granted Harris extended protection for whatever reason.
Do you know how long the extension was for? For life also, or just a longer duration?
I heard from credible source SleepyBear that it was extended by a extra year.
I also heard it here.
I remember reading it was extended for an extra year, but dont entirely quote me on that.
I’m not sure what the time frame was… But whatever it was, 6 months or a year or more, it was not normal practice. Trump just likes to say fuck this Biden policy wherever.
I swear Biden could have issued an order saying puupies are cute and Trump would rescind it simply because it was Biden
The Untied States of America: a country where someone can violently attempt to overthrow the government and face zero consequences because he is running for president again
Hey, at least he’s not a convicted rapist and unregistered child sex offender with ties to a convicted paedo, or a traitorous russian stooge …oh, wait!!
I’m pretty sure he’s committed about a hundred crimes he wasn’t even convicted of, along with the 34 he was convicted of
Things that small-handed men do.
Things that small-weiner men do.
Has anyone noticed the framed photo in the background is of a guy gagging?
I know doesn’t matter but does Trump even have the authority to do this? I mean is it normally the president job to give out secret service protection?
Trump is doing what he wants because he knows it’ll take awhile for the courts to do anything.
Shoot first, ask questions later is the name of his game.
It was due to expire in July anyway but Biden extended it by 1 year.
Right? Is this not something that is just guaranteed for the rest of the lives? People were talking about what happens if Trump was put in jail since he has secret service protection
Edit: okay apparently VP only gets like 6 months plus maybe extensions so this isn’t even a story really.
Don’t you know how kings work?
Release the Trumpstein files.
Demented rapist piece of shit
Bitchmade behavior.
What the FUCK
welcome to how fascists treat their political enemies
He’s starting to realize that he’s going to need as much secret service for himself as he can get given that the number of people who can’t stand him is constantly growing.
Is this abnormal?
Trump is doing it for the
rightwrong reasons but still, very deserved. Fuck Harris.Edit: brainfart.
Aside from caring about Gaza a little more than Biden and way more than Trump, I’m not sure what Harris did to warrant that. Both sides again?
If you’re seriously asking, here’s a non-exhaustive list in no particular order. She:
-
Refused to break with the immensely unpopular Biden.
-
Actively gaslit the working class and all but ignored their economic troubles (remember “nothing really comes to mind”?).
-
Refused to even pay lipservice to or make symbolic (let alone material) concessions regarding the Gaza genocide, and actively antagonized the part of her base that cared.
-
Legitimized rightwing talking points on issues such as immigration.
-
Campaigned on being bad for the climate (i.e. fracking).
As plenty of people (including yours truly) had warned, Harris running doomed America to another Trump term for the sake of her wealthy donors. I think I have every right to be pissed at her.
Y’all still on about her Gaza stance, like, yeah the genocide of thousands of innocent Palestinians is horrific and the IDF are terrorists (as is Hamas).
But I voted for her. Because I wanted to prevent a fucking genocide in the United States.
But here were are anyway. A blossoming genocide inside the fucking United States.
This is victim blaming, at it’s finest. Fuck everybody who thinks like this.
-
Fuck all the people who didn’t vote because they thought Harris wasn’t perfect.
Setting aside the validity of your point, “Harris wasn’t perfect” is gaslighting and will never get anyone on your side. If you don’t accept the reality that Harris was a terrible candidate and a step towards fascism rather than away from it, nobody who doesn’t already agree with you will give you the time of day.
If you don’t accept the reality that Harris was a terrible candidate
You’re entitled to your own opinion but I disagree.
and a step towards fascism rather than away from it,
You seem to have rolled a 1 on your perception check.
nobody who doesn’t already agree with you will give you the time of day.
Which is why I’m not going to waste my energy trying to change your mind.
I’mma be honest: If she was at all relying on, or even trusting, the SS to begin with then she is a lot stupider than anyone thought. Even frigging pence rapidly realized his “guard detail” were just waiting to suicide him.
At the end of the day, the SS are cops and, thus, are bastards. When you are a force of the status quo your interests align with them. The moment they don’t? You are just another poor.
