Donald Trump - MAGAtwat news and discussion

Trump supporters will believe anything.

Jesus wept, they even think this idiot's a comedian...

He's just saying what they're thinking. What can you do? Here's where the outrage is directed, at Tim Walz, for stating actual facts:


Karoline Leavitt, national press secretary of Donald Trump’s campaign, on Monday issued a demand for an apology for “disgraceful comments” she believes were smearing the supporters of a presidential contender.

She was not, however, referring to the hateful, racist remarks directed towards Puerto Ricans by the comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally; or Tucker Carlson’s description of Kamala Harris as a “Samoan-Malaysian, low IQ former California prosecutor”; or the radio personality Sid Rosenberg’s claim that Hillary Clinton is a “sick bastard”, made during a rant that included references to “fucking illegals”.

Leavitt’s outrage was directed instead at Tim Walz, Democratic vice-presidential nominee, for remarks he made claiming Trump had “descended into madness” in the past few weeks, and that his Sunday rally in New York had “a direct parallel to a big rally that happened in the 1930s at Madison Square Garden”, namely a 1939 Nazi rally that took place there.

“Walz needs to apologize for his disgraceful comments smearing Trump supporters,” Leavitt said in a statement. “This kind of rhetoric has already inspired assassination attempts.”

I learned something new today, that in many American states, voters are forbidden to wear anything at all (t-shirt, hat, badge etc) expressing their political stance while casting their vote and/or within 100 ft of a polling station.

So a presidential candidate can freely and without interference run an egregiously violent campaign based on the most vile bigotry, mysogyny, racism and hatred... but the law comes down hard - arrests and fines - on anyone who presents themselves at a polling station wearing their political hearts on their sleeves?

Obviously, I'm not defending this MAGA arsehole thug (life without parole is the best I'd wish him) but it seems like there's such a bizarre disconnect here between what matters and what should matter. Dress within the law while you vote for the lawless.

Obviously in the comments people are blaming the democrats for this and using it as a chance to praise Trump and hate immigrants.

In Georgia you're not allowed to give anyone water while they wait in line to vote, even if it's been hours (as it often is in the US) standing in the blazing sun, and they're your own friend. I actually first came across this in a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode where Larry got arrested for it, but it turns out to be a real thing.

Yes, I saw that with Larry. I think that is only recently though, that Empty's state has done this, in order to try and suppress the vote any way they can.

As for not being able to show affiliation in your apparel whilst voting, well, did anyone tell this fucking cop last time before he did this? Can you imagine our police being allowed to intimidate voters here by showing their allegiance?

I just did a dive on that and - Jesus Christ - this is a report from this month -

 
Seems like a move someone who knows he's losing would make. Whatever the purpose was (apart from spewing the same tired old hatred), it seems to have backfired badly for him and his 'comedian' bros.

Maybe that was the point, rile up his moron followers so they're primed and ready for violence against all the hate targets when he loses?
Nah. He just wanted to make a bold move.
Got a good turn out. Looks good to his followers. Racists will love it and non Racists will say it's not trump (who has distanced himself from the comments). Trump has shown in the past he is a massive racist turd, if the followers have overlooked this already then this is nothing new and nobody except Democrats will care. . . Sadly.

LOL. 'Non racist' in the context of trump followers! Oxymoron for the morons.

Closet racists or deluded folks. They should not be underestimated. It's crazy that this is such a close race. A convicted felon, racist, moron, rapist. . . but all that is being overlooked by half of the country. There is something dreadfully dreadfully wrong. Trump is no Machiavellian mastermind, quite the opposite. On paper he is doing everything wrong, but it's still 50/50. There has to be something a bit fucked in america. . . and sadly not just america, this is all happening the world over. The world is fucked.

Is it 50/50 though? What polls are you referencing that suggest that?

Independent polls, if any still exist, or polls that the elements of the American MSM media (that somehow felt unable to commit to or come out in favour of one or the other candidates) are pushing?

What polls are telling you that it's 50/50?
 
I wouldn't like to be a Republican who's come out against trump recently if he gets in - you'd imagine traitors would be treated worst.
this is what i find confusing - i don't get how a party can get so overrun, so quickly, by deranged conspiracy addled lunatics. i know many on here will say they are convienient idiots for "moderate sensible" republicans, but i don't fully by that. it's like if you took the tory party of the past 30 years, a party full of cunts, self interested tossers, etc, and almost entirely replaced them with complete lunatics. so instead of say a john major wanging on about the importance of the family, so boring you want to turn over to neighbours, you would have instead a lunatic wanging on about the deep state. that's how it looks from the outside. it truly is as if a cult has taken over, where truth just gets lost in the noise.

trump is just the current face of the religious right of the gop.. the cult had taken over it evangelistic Christians and their lobbying power
 
AOC nails the terrorist nature of Trump's Nuremberg rallies...


i have known some extremely clever conservatives over the years, top of their fields, who don't stop at their reading of all and everything, who not only know conservative politics inside out, they know left wing politics and history inside out. i wouldn't even suggest for one tiny second that they would see trump and his legions as "useful idiots". but that whole party over there seems to have been carpet bombed by this stuff.

it's just all so fucking deranged!!!

turns out that his macdonald trip was all staged (sorry prob been already reported on here). all the people who turned up were vetted to see if they were trump supporters. the shop was closed especially. so a totally fake, constructed spectacle, perading as something else. a lie basically.

which say 20 years ago would have been a daming story, across all red tops, i would think. these days, it's lost and forgetten about five minutes later.

sorry to roll him out again, but when i read statements like this i think of baudrillard time and time again as a lense to peek through: "human beings used to be the reasons for things, technology now creates its own reasons." he's a viral, social media president. without it, he'd be the sleazy wreck of a man he truly is.
 
I listen to that comedian. I mean it’s kind of incredible. here we are in 2024 and this guy is on stage at a political rally. I mean not really I suppose but WTF. I know they’re going hard for the can’t say things anymore crowd. you could hear a few groans in the audience even so. i’m kind of tempted to look up this guy and see what else he’s been doing. as an amateur stand-up comedian. Yeah I know. I’m kind of interested in bad comedy. As a yardstick. but that shit wouldn’t fly it even a free open Mike gig around here. just thinking out loud I guess.
 
We have this here of course. As mentioned this is not a uniquely US phenomenon. The energising of people who want to be able to say things, but feel sidelined, this empowered, ignored apparently in someway.
