How do these working people justify their love for a man who cheats them out of a paycheck then brags about it? He comes out and says it!!! 🤦‍♀️ I hate him so much. His cult is breathtakingly stupid.

Add a voiceover introduction and make sure that Trump is audible, and that video of people leaving the trump rally would make a Lincoln Project video all on its own.

I really like the latest, which are clearly targeting JD Vance and his anti divorce rhetoric.

This one is called Sick. https://youtu.be/N3lVk1cJZPA?si=EipfIGWqJ-kp989M

This one is called Springfield. https://youtu.be/Ef2cMVOuXYI?si=xxyanLXVE7q7xGHI

This one is called Owned. https://youtu.be/uX-ntQRLMyA?si=0sqnVgHbAFCHPCgP

It reminds me of two Bulwark articles. One where they analyzed the real cost of the watches he is selling, and the latest is talking about how it is a legal way to sell influence. So, a Saudi can by a million dollars worth of these watches through a middle man and then have a third party mention this, so that influence is established.

https://www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-magic-beans-and-the-100000

I also like the Republican Voters Against Trump, which is more of the same thing as the Lincoln Project. Led by Sarah Longwell, who is on the staff of The Bulwark Substack and a professional campaigner, Here is their latest ad. It is going to be in 48 states in a blitz in this final month as well as millions of billboards. https://youtu.be/ASMLggH0iyo?si=1rgcED--EKXPuRMZ

The problem with the “Sick” ad, they cut off the beginning where Vance said, “certainly some were violent” you barely even hear the tail end of the word “violent.” A serious flaw in the ad.

I think the images were conveying that, and it was not important to acknowledge him saying that. They have a time limit. I think that one hardly pays attention to what he says. It is about the images, and the image references him, so it counts on us already knowing what he is saying about women.

I would imagine many of them are just scared to do that. Or maybe there’s lots that he forced into non disclosure. I heard (via whatever is in MSM) that he would often wear out those collecting for good services AND for matériels they bought on his promise to payback. Vendor would wait years for payment, then give up and sue. His cadre of lawyers would beat them up and delay until they got weary of that game. Eventually some were (are still?) shut up by him offering as little as 25% of total due. Acceptance of that included an NDA.

Even if NDA’s expire, can you imagine how many would be willing to throw themselves in his path again. For ANY reason? A lot of these folks are old now. Not how you want to spend your last days: hoping that something doesn’t get fucked up and you end up without a house or savings account.

But, they had this to say…

“Many voters have said they want more details about the vice president’s plans, as well as more unscripted encounters in which she explains her vision and policies. They are right to ask. Given the stakes of this election, Ms. Harris may think that she is running a campaign designed to minimize the risks of an unforced error — answering journalists’ questions and offering greater policy detail could court controversy, after all — under the belief that being the only viable alternative to Mr. Trump may be enough to bring her to victory. That strategy may ultimately prove winning, but it’s a disservice to the American people and to her own record. And leaving the public with a sense that she is being shielded from tough questions, as Mr. Biden has been, could backfire by undermining her core argument that a capable new generation stands ready to take the reins of power.”

Definitely the rest of the world sees him for the dangerous buffoon that he is. They are not duped by his projections. His support here at home is troubling and baffling. But he will eventually get what he deserves.

His violent zombies like it when they are inflicting the hurt. The Feds should say that if MAGAs ever attack our own government again, this time the hurt will be on them. MAGAs need to be deterred from rioting and insurrecting ever again.

Unfortunately, “the Feds” and other law-enforcement departments comprise a lot of MAGAts.

That’s a fact, MzNicky! When the Fraternal Order of Popo came out for tRump recently, it became even more apparent.

January 6th pitted raving MAGATS against that fraternal order. Yet, drooling cult members that work among them support the fool that instigated the entire attack.

At least this time Joe Biden is in charge of the protection at the Capitol. He won’t sit by and let things happen, he’s already on top of it, imho.

Why oh why has he gotten away with all the lying and destructive shit he's pulled? Any comeuppance at all at some point in his accursed existence could have possibly reined in his arrogance and heedless perpetration. A father, perhaps, of one of the Teen USA contestants punching him out for walking into the dressing room unannounced. Or something much earlier in his life to show him he can't do anything he wants regardless of harm to others. Fuuuuuck. I hope that day is coming soon. Maybe jail will at least sequester him for a while.

She would have turned the meanness on Trump because he's too easy and fat a target to pass up. Sometimes she was mean. That's true. She was also funny as hell and very observant. She would have made hash out of Trump, and that's why I miss her.

Watching those disappointed, disillusioned TRump supporters walk out of his tiny rally, brings me so much joy. I am more certain than ever, the closer we get to the election, TRump is going to have his ass handed to him by a woman. DonOld is toast. 🤗

I do wonder how many of those “supporters” are being paid to be there, and how many others are just there for the freak show, and if more than a handful of attendees really are Trumpsters.

In my lifetime (and that's DECADES), I have never heard of a public individual who has gotten away with so much blatant crime and disrespect for others. How could we as a nation let that happen? He lived in NYC for decades and I have great respect for the SDNY, but why, why, why has he been allowed for almost 78 years to get away with all of this stuff? He's never been the richest and until he was elected president, he wasn't the most powerful. I just don't understand. He has ruined so many careers and lives with his utter selfishness and lack of caring about anyone.

He openly legitimized the whole dark underbelly of racists, misogynists, and other rage-filled malcontents that American society always knew were lurking about but never really had to contend with before. Eight years of a popular, effective Black president drove them straight out of their minds and into the comforting arms of a raging lunatic who promised revenge on their behalf and a return to the white-males-only clubhouse.

Donald is propped up by the legit news media because he makes them money. Outrage = eyeballs = money. They are addicted to him. The Autocrat Club glommed on to him to push their cause--more money and power. Murdoch and Putin and Musk are in league to convert America into Russia. See Anne Applebaum's new book and Substack.

The downfall of our press and airways began back in 1982 when sleazy ronnie reagan took the helm of our nation. (Not a surprise that George HW Bush arranged that. Made a deal with the Iranians to not release the hostages until the day of ronnie's inauguration, so as to make President Carter appear impotent and ronnie look: VICTORIOUS!! The Hell of America had begun.)

If only. A core group of Americans still believe 1/6 was a “hoax,” a “peaceful protest by true patriots,” and that police officers who served that day and later testified to the J6 Select Committee about their injuries and experiences are “crisis actors” and “traitors.” It’s disgusting and enraging.

The poster child for mental derangement gave a speech on immigration that had his audience hypnotized. Hypnotized or unbelieving that he would mumble gibberish for 15 minutes and call it a speech.

He is calling Harris mentally defective, in an attempt to keep the spotlight off of him. There are toddlers that show more maturity.

Almost more than his whiny drone of a voice and disconnected, word-saladesque, repetitive phrases, I hate the facial expressions Trump makes whenever he utters one of his idiotic "I'm your only solution" declarations. I swear he practices those in front of a mirror: the "it's so obvious innit" ennui; the "I know everything about everything" pout with the down-turned anus mouth and the superiorly raised head; the "I'm a serious person" lower lip pull. Ugh.
