Dear America, Please stop trying to shoot Donald Trump. He's got like 100 years of prison coming up in 2025. If you shoot him you make him a martyr and deny us the long crushing process of justice.
Best wishes for Donald Trump after his latest assassination attempt
Is this #3 so far, if we count what Kamala did to him at the debate? And to think we are still in September.
It's Trump. Here is another angle https://news.sky.com/story/laura-loomer-the-far-right-conspiracy-theorist-seen-with-donald-trump-13214428
It seems the lighting was bad in that room and the media were a bit far back, because most of the shots I see online are low quality and zoomed in.
The emperor has no clothes. He never did. 9 years of this crap.
The people who support this tantrum toddler need to come clean.

Trump is such a clown that when he speaks the internet is left talking about how he sounds like an angry idiot toddler. But he ends up getting a pass on his asinine policies because we are too busy talking about the insane stuff like "eating dogs" and him choosing to be Putin's bitch.
Let's not forget that his vision for "the economy" is also BS. His policy ideas are all bankrupt. The health care plan is not coming in 2 weeks. His administration inflicted on America's budget the most insane deficit and debt of any single presidential term: https://www.propublica.org/article/national-debt-trump
His ideas on tariffs are insane and debunked by serious economists. The whole thing is bananas. His plan for tariffs would hurt American workers. And in typical GOP fashion, the pain hits harder on the working class.
For anyone that wants to read a real economics analysis, here is a detailed study from the Peterson Institute for International Economics,
Why Trump’s Tariff Proposals Would Harm Working Americans
Trump's proposed tariffs would reduce American incomes by 6.3 - 2.9% depending on your income level. Americans that earn less money would suffer more.

BTW, PBS Newshour just reported on their daily broadcast
"As the campaign enters the final 2 months sprint, voting can officially begin as the first absentee ballots hit mailboxes in North Carolina today"
Are you the mod here messing with my account? because I want to file a formal complaint with whatever the systems are on this platform. It's one thing to correct people or ask for clarification or edits, it's another to start nuking people's posts and comments without asking and making stuff just disappear.
Why was my comment deleted? WTF
The schedule for N.C. was to begin sending out mail ballots this Friday. I learned this fact from listening to NPR and made the meme planning for this day. Today apparently there is some temporary delay due to some RFK.jr nonsense, but N.C. is going to continue with the election, it's not like RFK.jr can stop us from voting.
You are taking some pedantic position to call my post "misinformation". There is little being added by your comments. While my comments and posts are getting deleted without regard, and I'm still waiting for an apology for mods deleting my last post and messing with my comments here.
WTF is up with the moderation in this place. Let's see how long it takes for this comment to get deleted too.
Today, Friday Sept 6, North Carolina started sending out their mail-in ballots. https://www.newsweek.com/how-kamala-harris-could-win-north-carolina-first-ballots-are-mailed-out-1948902
BTW, the eagle's name is Fiddy. He lives around the block from me in Raleigh. The picture was taken when Fiddy was about to deposit his ballot, I asked him to pose for the meme. Fiddy says he doesn't eat rodents because "that's cat food," but I'm pretty sure I saw him catch a huge rat in the alley behind my house, and he just acts like that never happened.
But he voted early so mad props to Fiddy.
Please check your voter registration and plan to vote at your convenience
Today, Friday Sept 6, is the scheduled start to early voting in North Carolina.
BTW, I heard your comments before about AI, so this time I went out with my camera and waited by the mail box until a proud patriot eagle showed up to cast its vote. The flag in the background is photoshopped.
You guys know that I like to play with AI, so I asked AI what to make of this news channel. The AI told me to delete this meme because it has to be fake because no news channel would ever have aired that chyron nor have said such a ridiculous statement on prime time television.
Guys, this is real. September 4, 2024. The bottom right image was added for relating to the topic.
They call themselves a news channel
Top screenshot and [left] transcript are real and verbatim from Sept 4 broadcast on national TV.
I wanted to say that although I think the mods closed the Gaza thread, I am thankful that people joined in to have these serious conversations. Because no matter what your perspective is, I read every comment and I feel that everyone that commented there cares about trying to find solutions and figuring out how to do the right thing even when it's hard.
For democracy to work we have to talk to each other, even when it's uncomfortable. Thank you for caring and doing your part. I don't know how to fix all our problems, but I do know that we have this democracy to let us decide together. And the more we talk the closer we can get to real answers somehow. Have a great day.
For the fact checkers https://www.bbc.com/news/61333847
According to the WHO, in 2020 and 2021 the US recorded more than 930,000 excess deaths, behind India (4.7m), Russia (1.1m) and Indonesia (1m).
This was a thing in 2011 because when he was birth-ering Obama people asked about Trump's certificate, and he produced a piece of paper that turned out to be unofficial. A bunch of news articles from back then are down now even though most news websites go back decades usually. "Someone should investigate"

Trump is the son, and grandson, of immigrants: German on his father’s side, and Scottish on his mother’s. None of his grandparents, and only one of his parents, was born in the United States or spoke English as their mother tongue.
I don't understand. How do they delete progressives and brown people from the voter register right before the election if there is no voter register? Do you just let any citizen vote without disenfranchising large segments of the population?
Next you are going to tell me you don't even use an electoral college to prevent the winner of the election from becoming president.
You foam at the mouth about how my numbers are wrong, and then you post a link that validates the numbers and even suggests they are higher:
The annual salary for farm hands in 2024 range from $45,862 to $81,812, according to Indeed. The average salary is $61,254
Perhaps you need to slow down a bit to understand averages. Some people make less than $61k, some people make more than $61k, and for the average to work that means that for some that makes less there's got to be others that make more. According to Indeed, that range is between $46k and $82k for FARM HANDS. Not part owners or some other capitalist arrangement, farm hands according to the stats.
By your own admission, there are a good deal of farm workers out there earning a salary of $82k /year, which BTW is higher than lots of people with master's degrees in the city.
Since you are not contributing anything to the conversation, there's no point in me replying further.
