    Trump does this MAGA assuming it’s affecting only Democrats.

    MAGA: Good. They deserve it.

    Trump lies about disaster relief aid being given too slowly from the Biden administration to assumed MAGA states.

    MAGA:

    None of this is surprising. It feels like we hear shit like this every single day, and yet half the country still feels like they want this clown back in office.

    Propaganda is a helluva drug. Nancy Reagan would blush.

    “This is Trump country — and they need your help,” DeSantis pitched Trump.

    “They love me in the Panhandle,” the former president said. “I must have won 90 percent of the vote out there. Huge crowds. What do they need?” Shortly after the conversation took place, Trump signed an executive order commanding the federal government to cover “100 percent of the total eligible costs” related to the hurricane response.

    Shortly before he took it upon himself to politicize the response to Helene, the former president threatened to withhold aid for natural disasters from Democratic strongholds.

    “We won’t give him money to put out all his fires,” Trump said of California Governor Gavin Newson, a Democrat, in September. “And, if we don’t give him the money to put out his fires. He’s got problems. He’s a lousy governor.”

    Seriously wtf

    People will say “what about Gaza?” when it comes to Kamala. It blows my fucking mind that they think Trump or some fake third party vote will do anything.

    Trump cares about Trump and how much you will suck him off.

    This election is between two selections. Trump and Harris…Full Stop!

      Most of those people are either secret Trump supporters, have foreign interests, or are so brainwashed that arguing with them is pointless. They only use Gaza as a tool, if they actually cared they’d vote for the only candidate who can be swayed on the issue

      Let’s take this through to worse case for both sides.

      Harris doesn’t intervene in a foreign conflict.

      Trump becomes Emperor of USA (would that even be their name), women are slaves, anyone not white and male is threatened with violence, democracy dies, USA become an authoritarian, racist, violent oligarchy, the world burns through climate change and conflict… and Trump doesn’t intervene in the same conflict.

        Trump will definitely intervene and bomb the shit out of Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran. This is the guy who took the most insane extreme option and killed that Iranian general.

        Or intervenes more… to help the genocide proceed faster.

        BTW, he’d also hand Ukraine to Russia so that’s another genocide right there.

    “The firefighters. They all came to me with tears streaming down their eyes. I remember Steve Buscemi was one of them. He was there,” recounted Fat Donald, “They said, ‘sir, we wanted to save them but they said they hate you. They were so mean.’ It was the biggest fire we’ve ever seen. So tremendous, nothing like it in history ever. We didn’t start these fires. It was always burning since the world’s been turning. Marciano, Liberace, Eisenhower, goodbye.“

      Definitely a contender, but only because so many enablers have given him an incredible amount of power. Otherwise, he’d be a pretty standard asshole businessman.

        I dunno mate… Even Bezo’s moved to more environmental packaging of his crap.

        Whereas Trump would blame the trees for causing global warming, and offer to package his chinese junk for extra money with a trading card made out of the suit he wore when he was engaging in the insurrection
