Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz mocked Donald Trump Thursday for his clumsy garbage truck gimmick.
“This dude’s nearly 80-years-old,” Walz said at a campaign event in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. “He damn near killed himself getting into a garbage truck.”
The crowd laughed at the Democrat’s reference to a Wednesday incident involving the Trump campaign’s attempt at retribution over President Joe Biden’s garbage gaffe that inflamed MAGA supporters. The GOP nominee donned an orange safety vest and planned a ride in a Trump-branded garbage truck.
It might work that way, or help shutting up the people that say “Harris is the same as Biden”
It might also not be a wise strategy to insult the people you hope to change their minds to stay at home or vote for them. Every single vote is important.
Insult trump and his cronies but not the American people that you built your whole campaign around.
You mean… like trump did? When he doubles down on the PR being “garage”,
Or, every time he opens his puckered anus?
It’s okay to get angry. It’s okay to say that people that want to elect a rapist, racist, a raging misogynist, convicted felon, tax cheat, business fraudster.
a man whose policies are so awful, that his kill count is only lower compared to the likes of Mao, Stalin, hitler and Pol Pot.
That is who trump voters are voting for. You cannot be a good person- or even a half-way decent person- and vote for that.
You do not get to make jokes about Paul Pelosi getting beaten in the head with a claw hammer and then get offended when you’re called a piece of trash.
You do not get to attack people at voting polls with a machete, or burn ballot boxes or intimidate voters and complain about being called garbage.
You do not get to vote for laws that prevent women from getting necessary, emergency medical care directly leading to their death, and bitch about being called a callous, shitty human being.
Any vote that gets lost because of this was never going to be voting for harris anyway. Undecided voters don’t exist. We know who and what the candidates are. We’ve known for more than a year. It isn’t that complicated a decision.
Yes, but we aren’t watching Fox News all day.
They’re voting trump because they were convinced they are victims. Calling them names may make them actually turn out more because it gives weight to trumps campaign and their arguments they make.
It’s tough to navigate this election, but fueling their emotions while their manipulated emotions have made them vote for trump in the first place, seems like an obviously bad idea, even for some idiot like myself.
bullshit. even fox news and OAN and all the-even further-right-wing-rags air his rants. They’ve heard him speak. we ALL watched him incite an insurrection. all their propagandist rags have spewed his own words like “I’ll be a dictator on day one”, or “If I get elected, you won’t [get] to vote again.” comments. They’ve heard all his violent rhetoric. They’ve heard him praise douchey assholes like Putin and Kim.
They’ve heard his racist dog-whistles. his misogyny. His stupidity.
They like that he calls for political violence against immigrants, against women, and against anyone whose not ideologically with them. (that is… democrats.).
They like his vile shit.
The GOP is the party of Insurrection. The party of violence. The party of racism. the party of misogyny. The party of hate. The party of Fuck-the-Poor-so-The-Rich-can-save-a-Buck.
Sorry, but they’re voting for that. Knowingly. they’re voting for project 2025. Knowingly. They’re not ignorant. They know what and who he is, and they’re voting for the candidate they like.
we need to be hitting back at the people who try to ‘civilize’ trump’s message. “no he meant” needs to be met with “Trump meant to be fucking fascist, why are you lying?”
yeah, the time to coddle their fucking emotions is long since passed. Hurt their feelings. the worst of trump’s supporters are not here to have civil conversation like functional adults.
they’re here to beat the shit out of you until you comply. They don’t give a flying fuck about your feelings. Only your compliance. It’s well past time to clobber the “undecided” or “moderates” that don’t really exist any more over the head with all of the GOP’s bullshit. Paint them with that brush. if they don’t like it they can prove it by NOT SUPPORTING THE FUCKING FASCISTS.
So you don’t watch Fox News.
All these things you’ve listed they’re showing it heavily cut up and explaining it away, trying to make sense of it the whole day, washing brains, coming up with fantasy stories to paint everyone left of the Neonazis as worse.
Just watch it for a couple days and then we can continue on the same grounds of reality.
Nobody is trying to convince the MAGA crowd, but you apparently think 50% of Americans are MAGA.
