And 3-4 months is an eternity now. Trump is going to say a ton of stupid ish over the next few months. There wasn't the same pretext of "political persecution" from Reagan's opponents. I highly doubt the guy who did this was trying to impress an actress. And the people voting for Trump are not rational, well-adjusted people, they will 100% believe Trump when he blames this on democrats.

I honestly doubt there's much of a sympathy vote all the way out in November. It won't be because of sympathy. These people aren't capable of being sympathetic, that would require normal human emotions. They're bitter, angry people, the reason for the boost in turnout will be vindictive in nature.

I have long feared this was going to be a terrible election cycle.

July 14, 20241 yr This thread will go into the EMB Hall of Fame for the most freezing cold psychotic takes of all time.

I know the concept seems stupid but it does exist.

My favorite are the hysterical ones over a bloody ear by people who have laughed at people getting killed in the past. In particular by one poster who has advocated the mass shootings of unarmed women and children.

Perhaps you should have a little class and wait a few seconds before continuing your own personal hate campaign.

Perhaps you should have a little class and wait a few seconds before continuing your own personal hate campaign. And yet you want to give Trump a free pass for getting people killed on 1/6/21. Funny how that works…
