Perhaps I'm projecting, but I see too many people here in my locality that are borderline hanging their personal identity on the current political discourse. Regardless of those in power, life will go on. Death & taxes too. Oh, okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Because of course he does. Quote Trump Defends Shooting Suspect Kyle Rittenhouse The president did not seem willing to reconsider his visit to Kenosha, Wisconsin, amid protests over Jacob Blake, a Black man who was shot by a police officer. "He was trying to get away from them, I guess, it looks like, and he fell," Trump said at the White House. "And then they very violently attacked him." Rittenhouse was seen in videos brandishing a gun while walking around protests over Jacob Blake, a Black man who was shot seven times by a police officer. The 17-year-old has been charged as an adult with two counts of first-degree homicide and one count of attempted homicide. Trump added the events are "interesting" and under investigation. He said he'd like to see everything be taken care of by law enforcement instead of private citizens, but he seemed to suggest that Rittenhouse was acting in self-defense. "I guess he was in very big trouble. He probably would have been killed," he said. Although Rittenhouse has been documented attending at least one Trump rally, the president criticized Biden for not acknowledging violence coming from his supporters. https://www.usnews.com/news/elections/articles/2020-08-31/trump-defends-kenosha-shooting-suspect-kyle-rittenhouse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted September 1, 2020 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2020 It's a reaction designed to cause anger, to promote division and hatred which will hopefully spill onto the streets giving him the opportunity to once more claim he's the only man that can fix it. The actual President of the USA is trying to create race riots in the USA to win an election. Pre-Trump this would have been astonishing. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted September 2, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 2, 2020 From what I can understand of US politics Biden is a dead man walking. From the Trump video's it seems to me that the most important thing that exists is to have as many American flags behind you as is physically possible to fit in the space available. Sometimes he has literally dozens. Biden has only like 8 or 9. He's got no chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't challenge and debate peoples posts with thoughtful, clear insightful comments then why do you post patronizing, condescending quips like this? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I'm pretty sure Trump just used the expression to describe Police Officers decision making abilities under stress as "Sometimes they choke" I might be wrong and mis-heard it but if true, he planned it. It's the only word in the world he shouldn't have used in this situation and in the town that he is in.

Oh my god LOL That guy mispronounced ONE word. What a **** doofus. He's so old and senile! How could anyone get those two incredibly similar words mixed up?! Unbelievable! He must have Alzheimers or something?! Anyway did you hear Trump telling everyone to use bleach to cure Coronavirus and how mail in voting is rigged and will cause him to lose the election so he's defunding the post office and how China intentionally spread the Coronavirus and that the US Covid cases was because of too much testing and that he defends that white guy that murdered some protestors? Such a sound minded fellow. Trump 2020 baby! Edited September 2, 2020 by Stevo985 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is the same guy, he's on film asking for this and he received it , they took the side of his head off but missed his brain by a long way. The silly word removed.
