“We will institute the powerful death penalty for drug dealers, where each dealer is responsible for the death, during their lives, of 500 people or more,” he said.
"Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing in hosp … and we will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms screaming, ‘What can I do, what can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’ We are a nation whose once revered airports are a dirty, crowded mess,” Trump continued, pivoting suddenly.
“You sit and wait for hours and then are notified that the plane won’t leave, that they have no idea when they will. Where ticket prices have tripled. They don’t have the pilots to fly the planes, they don’t seek qualified air traffic controllers, and they just don’t know what the hell they are doing.”
“We will take over the horribly run capital of our nation in Washington, D.C., and clean it up, renovate it, and rebuild our capital city, so that it is no longer a nightmare of murder and crime. But rather it will become the most beautiful capital anywhere in the world,” Trump said.
“Right now, if you leave Florida, ‘Oh, let’s go, darling, let’s look at the Jefferson Memorial, let’s look at the Washington Monument, let’s go and look at some of the beautiful scenes,’ and you end up getting shot, mugged, raped,” he warned, promising that he’d run the city “tough and smart.”
Watch Here:
Watch how this story disappears within a day. But the trolls will still be talking about Biden in the debate until next January.
Difference is, no republican cares if Trump is mentally fit to be president, nor will being mentally unfit cause him to lose the election.
Democrats and Biden on the other hand…
It gets old seeing the people with power continue to use it delicately so as not to upset people, while also not doing a goddamn thing about the opposition who FULLY abuses everything they can touch.
It’s always the same thing
One side speaks respectfully of the other
one side doesn’t push hardline questions and issues when they know can get the other side to say something that shoots themselves in the foot
One side tries to keep the peace
One side treats people with kiddie gloves
One side has reasonable policies and goals, or just simply doesn’t change bad ones
The other side however, is constantly spraying a firehose of bullshit all over everything at every opportunity by constantly sabotaging the entire country in order to “one up” some imaginary opponent, actively calling for persecution AND prosecution of anyone who doesn’t fit their cookie cutter mould (that they themselves don’t need to fit into), punishes anyone for trying to make the country better, and has no qualms with lying, cheating, sabotaging, straight up committing massive amounts of felonies, all for no better reason than the infantile desire to be in opposition of something that helps another person.
Please don’t misconstrue this but: This exact sentiment is why I didn’t really care that the left somewhat overreacted to the ruling about presidential immunity. I know that some of the things people spread about the results of that case just aren’t true. People immediately went hyperbolic with their reactions to the point of misinformation.
Normally, I’d disavow that misinformation and get onto them about it. Instead I thought “this is how the left should be reacting, even if for some of the wrong reasons”
And we can make an argument for not stooping down to the republicans level, but why wouldn’t we? Sitting on a throne of perfect correctness isn’t helping us. I’m not saying we go full anti-factual, but the time for criticism of your own side is when you can afford to lose. We cannot afford to lose.
no republican cares if Trump is mentally fit to be president
This issue, in this case, isn’t mental fitness. Trump’s comments are right in line with what he was saying four, eight, and forty years ago.
He loves the idea of lynchings as a tool of criminal justice enforcement, particularly when the lynchings target the political underclass. He loves the idea of accusing entire populations of violent criminality, particularly when those communities don’t support his political goals. And he loves the spectacle of it all - the pomp and circumstance of the courts leveraged against his opponents, the “beautification” of a gentrified neighborhood, and the fixation on tourism as an end goal of any socio-economic renovation.
Republicans eat this shit up now, just like when they ate up Michael Bloomberg’s Disneyfication of downtown New York or the massive tourist traps that Nevada and Arizona and Florida has been turned into. Conservatives dream of living their lives in one big resort community, Donald Trump knows it, and this is his promise to do to DC what was done to so many other Reagan-Era cities and states.
To say he’s mentally unfit would imply he wasn’t vibing right along with the tens of millions of white nationalist suburbanites who think the whole country should be a country club that pampers them 24/7.
Why would it disappear? Everyone’s talking about it, more and more every day. The Internet is exploding with demands for trump to step down.
That’s what everyone’s telling me. Everyone I know says it.
Nah, I can’t continue. I don’t even know his rhythm of idiot logic enough to copy it.
That’s because democratic voters expect more from their candidates. Let the republicans put up this joke of a fascist. I expect better than Biden and Hillary Clinton and will be happy the day Biden drops out.
And if he doesn’t, I will vote for him and bitch about the Democratic Party the same way I did in 2016.
I’ll be doing the same. Unlike a lot of the people complaining here. Hopefully he wins and we can regroup over the next four years. If the no-voters learn their lesson from how close it can get, maybe we can work together over that time to get someone younger, and more effective. Until then- Biden is all we have to stop America from becoming a fascist dictatorship.
Disclaimer: To the troll that follows me around accusing me of making blanket statements when I never do- note how I said “a lot” not “all.”
there’s nothing trollish about it. first of all, i don’t understand why some liberals are crying so much about TFG fumbling and no one calling for him to drop out.
WHO’S SUPPOSED TO CALL FOR IT?
his base? they love him and don’t care.
his opposition? why? he’s a terrible candidate most people hate. why would his opposition want him to drop out? so that a less hated person replaces him and guarantees the republican win? you do know Clinton was the only person in the world who could’ve lost to him, and now Biden is trying super hard to be the second, right?
the reason people are calling for Biden to drop out is because he’s polling unfavorably against TFG. the reason they’re not calling for TFG to drop out is because he’s a much hated person who would’ve surely and easily lost if only someone looking vaguely alive would run against him.
I believe the meme should say “approval rating at 35%”

Ipsos/Reuters is like, the grade A of grade A pollsters.
Mockery is the most effective way to beat Blue Maga (imo). We need to show how embarrassing it is to be associated with them.
