Ex-president quickly broke away from prepared speech to accuse vice-president of being a communist and a fascist

“They’ll say he was rambling. I don’t ramble. I’m a really smart guy, you know, really smart. I don’t ramble. But the other day, anytime I hit too hard, they say he was rambling, rambling,” he said.

    The only “policy” weird felon trump can talk about is “personal attacks on the opponent”.

    He stands for nothing but filling his pockets by grifting from his supporters.

    Cult behaviour

        There was a recent segment on the Daily show discussing exactly this. They even showed a several minute clip showing him using the exact same attacks he’s been using for the past 10 years, word for word, except just changing the names to whoever he’s attacking at that moment.

        We have seen everything he has to offer. There’s nothing new at this point. All he has is attack, attack, attack. And even then, there’s only a small number of attacks he uses. He just repeats them over and over ad nauseum and switches out the names as necessary. Sometimes, he even gets the names right. Sometimes. None of that is even hyperbole or exaggeration. He literally has no new material.

      Funny thing is. I’m from Central America and conservatives fucked my country, funded death squads, disappeared anyone suspected of being a communist, and they did all this to keep away Russia and make sure they didn’t get a foothold in the Americas. Now those same conservatives suck Putin dick and call us criminals cause we flee the shit show Americans left us with

      Like the post said the other day, “paying attention is infuriating and exhausting, but not paying attention seems irresponsible”

        wow that does sum it up well. I mean you know your at the 7/11 and some guy is talking crazy to himself and you just ignore, get your stuff, and leave. I would love to be able to ignore this guy but like some people for some reason want him running the country.

      It’s been a while, and it was just an elective class, but I remember the the poli sci professor was adamant that communism and fascism were opposing philosophies, socialism even more so.

      And yet she gets accused of being all of the above.

      That’s what narcissists do. They project. Cluster B is a real dick that way.

        One aims to enact a state-enforced rigid hierarchy based on ethnicity, ability, religion, and/or sexual/gender characteristics and make sure one of those groups stays on top with no regard for the rights of the others. The other one (in theory) seeks to abolish all those hierarchies and even the state itself and put everybody on equal footing. Of course they’d be opposed.

      No no, she’s fascist, ANTIFA, and communist! She’s also not a woman (according to them, because she never had biological children of her own) and she’s a woman (which to trump and his gang means she’s weak and emotional). She’s a soft on crime liberal and she’s a hard-nosed authoritarian who prosecuted and persecuted vulnerable people.

      She’s Schrodinger’s candidate. At least to Trump and his delusional cult followers.
