Donald Trump shares image of Joe Biden bound and gagged
(www.seattletimes.com)
Kinky
violent images
I hate to be the one to tell you this, Seattle Times, but this is fetish content.
I don't like saying this but I will forgo any of my liberal socialist ideals if Biden wants to do whatever it takes to get votes from republicans.
Edit: Man, you people are sad little trolls. Go spend some time out in the IRL world. It's genuinely depressing to see so many keyboard warriors spend their time regurgitating the talking points from the comfort of their echo chamber.
To clarify my meaning, whether you agree with my politics or not, I think Biden has been a far better president than anyone could have hoped for (possibly the best I can recall) but I still have a philosophical disagreement with him when it comes to protections and equity for all. I believe there are some programs that the federal government should run to give all Americans the best opportunities (education, healthcare, housing, UBI, etc) and I believe that taking excessive capitalist gains from the ultra wealthy is a small drop in the bucket to promote some fairness. I will lean back on these philosophical ideas which I've had little hope of a centrist of adopting and encourage him to lean further right if that means he can take some votes away from the inarguably worst president in modern times (yes, worse than Regan).
If you think Trump should be the leader of the US, that he some how represents or understands democracy, that he cares about you or the United States, that he's a good president or person, or is better than Biden in any regard, you and I are not existing in the same solar system so there's no point in arguing. I don't have anything against Republicans but the extreme and religious conservatives and the MAGA cult do not align with the freedoms dreamed by our founders or promised in the Constitution of the US.
If things don’t turn around for him, he might have to lower himself to try to get votes from non-Republicans.

In support of him or against him?
if Biden wants to do whatever it takes to get votes from republicans.
Ok, monkey's paw granted... he does a peace negotiation with Russia on Ukraine and then promptly declares a 2nd war, now on Mexico, Fentanyl, China, Venezuela, and Cuba, because why not?
I swear, y'all dems practice democratic centralism, don't ye? Freedom of thought, unity in action....

I would also not be opposed to Biden testing his own Presidential Immunity™ on Trump and his cronies, and I hate that I feel that way.

I'm the dumbest person on this website so I'll bite. The only way to gain votes from a group is to align with their ideology. I know you are aware of this and you want him to be more right wing, but that's the issue. Biden shifting right would eliminate any chance whatsoever of the policies you claim to want. It would mean more support to Israel and more support of genocide. It would mean more deportations and stronger anti-immigration stances. It would mean less support of women's rights. It would mean being more hostile to queer people. It would be difficult to distinguish from a Republican presidency, but at least his rhetoric is nicer. Also, if a genocide supporting, union busting president that oversaw the banning of abortion, increased persecution of queer people, devasting proxy wars, a series of infrastructure disasters, a trillion dollar military budget and literal genocide is the best president of your lifetime, perhaps your American "democracy" isn't as noble as you think.

i went and looked for the image ... to uh.. confirm if true or not
it's "just" trump showing a truck parade and one of the trucks has it as a large sticker/decal
‘Just’
normalising this is part of the problem. It isn’t ‘just’ a video of two trucks.
It is normal. Trump supporters have been like this since 2016. Right wing cranks existed way before that.
Right, this shit has already been normalized. We ought to be concerned with how to deal with it.
It's "just" a video of two trucks, given what the headline claimed.
When I first read the headline, I figured the image would be a kinda jank AI generated picture of Biden bound and gagged. Like... The headline makes it seem like that's the focus of Trumps post.
But it isn't. The focus of the image are the trucks adorned with Trump memorabilia. That's the thing he cares about in this case. The presence of the Chud Tailgate Murder Fantasy is incidental.
And for that matter, what do you mean "normalizing"? This shit is already normal. That's the problem.
The presence of the Chud Tailgate Murder Fantasy is incidental.

Dammit, where are my pictures!
kinky
the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.
Unlike Biden's non-violent rhetoric of "Israel has every right to defend itself" when people confront him with the fact he's actively funding a genocide.

Interestingly, Donald Trump's argument about presidential immunity suggests that Biden could do that to him and it legally okay to do so.
