Read your comment after seeing the image, went back and noticed the fake tan, gave me a good chuckle.
Agree the editing looks good, but I don't feel the template fits. I don't think the orange one is capable of the realisation and self reflection depicted in the last panel.
something like this instead?
NPR: Trump campaign staff had altercation with official at Arlington National Cemetery
Two members of Donald Trump's campaign staff had a verbal and physical altercation Monday with an official at Arlington National Cemetery, where the former president participated in a wreath-laying ceremony, NPR has learned.
A source with knowledge of the incident said the cemetery official tried to prevent Trump staffers from filming and photographing in a section where recent U.S. casualties are buried. The source said Arlington officials had made clear that only cemetery staff members would be authorized to take photographs or film in the area, known as Section 60.
When the cemetery official tried to prevent Trump campaign staff from entering Section 60, campaign staff verbally abused and pushed the official aside, according to the source.
Every time I read about this asshole and this cronies I have to remember that my father would drink his bathwater given a chance. Gaaaaah.
And don't forget the idiots who mindlessly yet smugly parrot that bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL wHy BoThEr VoTiNg and sit on their lazy, intellectually mediocre asses, fondling their "purity" then distractedly yet lovingly sniffing their fingers.
It gets better. To prove that there was no altercation, the Trump campaign have promised to release video footage.
These people are terminally stupid. Every single one of them.
The Trump campaign declined to make that footage immediately available.
Yeah, that's not coming out.
Oh, for sure. But the point is, the whole altercation supposedly occurred because they were trying to film in a place where its illegal to film.
Why the fuck would you then claim to have video footage of that???
Really? Why is it illegal to film there?
From the NPR article linked above
"Federal law prohibits political campaign or election-related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries, to include photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate's campaign," according to the statement. "Arlington National Cemetery reinforced and widely shared this law and its prohibitions with all participants."
I don't know the details of that, but presumably because it would be considered disrespectful.
JFC the campaign response is at least as diabolical as the incident itself. Fuck these guys so much. They deserve so much retribution from so many people but we will have to be satisfied just working to thump them at the voting booth.
I am sooooooo fucking sick of this disgusting asshole. I wish he would not be relevant to anything anymore. god damn him. what a complete piece of shit. there is seriously nothing redeemable about him. not one fucking thing. the day he is no longer relevant, i will throw a motherfucking party. i will be so happy to know that I never have to deal with anything he does ever again. the relief would be celebratory. fuck! 😡😫😖

There were 63 US military deaths in Afghanistan during the Trump administration. This piece of shit goes around saying that nobody died in that operation during his watch, and talks about how Biden cost the US THIRTEEN lives during the sundown of the Afghanistan war started by Republicans - a series of wars that go back to the first part of the century and sank the country in unimaginable debt.
Biden will be remembered for putting his foot down on the forever wars. And he will be remembered for eviscerating Russia's military and strengthening our EU alliance, using only a fraction of the US military national budget and without putting a single American solider in harm's way.
This piece of shit thinks that's a bad record for Biden, and he is going to go around lying about it, pretending he is making some powerful points about which parties does most to keep us safe.
Who starts unwinnable wars? Who has a barrage of "unavoidable" incidents on their watch? From terrorist attacks to pandemics to historical financial crashes and absurd deficits, it's always a Republican having to make excuses ... "who could have thought the terrorists were plotting and attack, or that the war on terror would take decades" ... "who could have known the virus wasn't going to disappear by April like a miracle."
Somehow the GOP that keeps us safe and is "best" at the economy are the same asswipes that can't protect us from attacks, start wildly misguided wars, and sink us into unpayable debt planted squarely on the shoulders of our youth.
But it's all somehow Harris' fault now. And this piece of shit is going to tell us why by fabricating some nonsense about the Biden admin, and lying about his party's record and his own.
The Afghanistan withdrawal happened because it was arranged during the Trump administration.
It was supposed to happen in May, Biden pushed it back to August.
It's honestly kind of disgusting how much time both administrations had to pull out of there after that withdrawal was set in stone, and it was still a last minute clusterfuck!!! All the DoDs shit should've been shipped back long before the deadline, it literally could have been just a couple desk jockeys putting their stuff in a box and walking into a plane.
A phased drawdown could have invited more attacks. It was done quickly so the taliban wouldn't have time to react. Not that I'm happy with how it went or how much fucking gear and people got left behind, but I at least understand the thought process.
It was "done quickly" because the Taliban was actively trying to enter after the DoD ran the fuckin' clock out. There is no excuse for doing fuck all in advance (that i am aware of); both administrations screwed the pooch here, and people died as a consequence, both soldiers and afghani civilians who were abandoned by the US. It's disgraceful.
This piece of shit goes around saying that nobody died in that operation on how watch.
Just like how Joe is a piece of shit for also saying nobody died. He stood in front of the nation and denied what happened to those thirteen people...as well as others.
"Truth is, I’m the only president this century that doesn’t have — this decade — any troops dying anywhere in the world like he did,"
He said "doesn't have" on July 3 2024, not "had". It's called present tense in English.
Unlike Trump, Biden does not currently have troops dying anywhere in the world.
Why you gotta do Gru ugly like that.
