Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

holy shit how does he look like he aged another 40 years in the last few days?

That and Harris’ surprising surge is probably stressing him out more.

Doesn't appear to be dying his hair anymore either.

Since Trump has an unbroken record of bowing and scraping in the presence of autocrats, I think we can safely disregard anything he might say about anyone else's attitude towards them.

What are the Russians astroturfers going to post now that they can't say they won't vote for genocide?

Considering Trump is pro Russia and pro Israel, whatever they were saying now goes against their main goal.

Putin should just imprison these shitty astroturfers for doing such a bad job.

Consistency and logic was never their strong suit.

Probably the usual response, ears plugged, eyes shut, something up their asshole to own the libs

Here come the replies sealioning about why we can’t push for a better option with the intended goal of splitting the Democrat vote.

Donald calling anything or anyone "disrespectful" is hilarious.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago

Like Trump even knows what respect is. He thinks it's worshiping somebody (himself, mostly) and groveling at their feet.

The common criminal demands respect for the war criminal.

Trump is the embodiment of disrespect

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

In my country with the way he's calling opponents he'd get sued for slander each time he has a speech

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 months ago

The disrespectful commentary expert has spoken.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Disrespectful man calls statement, he already forgot the contents of, disrespectful.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

He can respectfully eat a bag of respectful dicks, no disrespect.

It's cuz she's a genocidal antisemite who is absolutely incompetent and behind every calculated idea of Biden's presidency. She disrespectfully supports Israel's oppression of the innocent Palestinian terrorist bastards, which she is going to immediately end after letting it go on forever if she wins the election.

This is why you can't vote for Kamala Harris: she wants open borders so that she can arrest and over-prosecute everyone.

Did I do it? Did I cover all the talking points? I got kinda dizzy from all of the logical whiplash... I know I left out the racist and sexist parts, but I'd feel bad about myself if I'd repeated them.

I'm glad I read such posts all the way through, because I was getting the banhammer ready for this one. Unfortunately, a lot of other people apparently didn't read to the end.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Aww man, you know me! I'm fucking psyched about Kamala running! Is she my ideal candidate? No, but she's a damn good one.

I think this is the first time in my life that I'm actually excited about voting.

I know that the propaganda playbook contains "my enemy is strong but weak," as is spelled out in more precise terms in Mein Kampf, but these attacks on Harris seem exceptionally desperate and schismatic

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Had me in the first half, not gonna lie.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

He would know who's being disrespectful I guess.
