"For Twitter to deserve public trust, it must be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally"

Welp, so much for that. The man's every bit as much the charlatan and hypocrite Trump is.

Would you be concerned if someone ate your favorite pet?

You guys certainly don't seem that concerned, considering that you want to dismiss all claims by claiming that there is not enough evidence to your satisfaction.

The linguistic gymnastics in this sentence... Tom, you are a master at using the maximum amount of words to say absolutely nothing.

I'll take "things that never happened" for $1000, Alex!

It's a thing. You won't find any evidence of it because the mainstream media won't let anybody talk about it and the Deep State suppresses it but it's all a part of the vudu.

According to the article I linked…
Quote
Trump and Vance, a U.S. senator from Ohio, are charged with disrupting public services, making false alarms, telecommunications harassment, aggravated menacing and complicity.

Yes, it’s doubtful that the case will go anywhere, but it’s yet another example of the number of fucks that Trump gives about the truth and the potential consequences of his words and actions.

It's also an example of the kind of overblown, unnecessary actions taken against Trump that his followers use as ammo to say that he's just being targeted for political reasons, and given that they're correct in this case, it's justification for that attitude. This really isn't helping any.

Did we already have "scapegoating Jews" on the list of ways Trump is like Hitler or is this a new one?

I don't think it's surprising that the side that can't be trusted with guns keep using them against Trump.

Not that I don't agree with you, but why do you think Republicans can't be trusted with guns?

Where did you find this one? It just cracked me up! Thanks for joining us tonight, Roundy. I really really like this joke. Hahah.

Find what? Thomas Crooks was a Republican from the day he registered to vote to the day he died. Routh is apparently unaffiliated and voted in this year's Democratic primary but has also voted Republican in the past.

I'm not sure what "side" you're talking about, exactly, but it sure ain't Democrats.

Meanwhile JD Vance just admitted that the Haitians eating pets story was always a pie, and rationalized by basically saying you have to tell some racist lies to make sure Americans understand the danger we're in, and James Lankford just admitted that the Republicans intentionally killed the border deal for no other reason than that Trump would have an issue to run on.

Why do they insist on giving Democrats so much ammunition?

Meanwhile, in reality, far from the comforting fictions of MAGAworld::

Quote from: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/harris-debate-winner-maintaining-slight-lead-trump-poll/story?id=113673862

The poll of 3,276 adults, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates with fieldwork by Ipsos, finds that Harris did firm up some of her personal appeal: Thirty-seven percent say the debate made them feel more favorably toward her, vs. 23% less favorably. There was no such benefit for Trump: People by nearly 2-1 say the debate made them see him less favorably.

I remember very clearly every incident of Harris baiting Trump to make an ass out of himself and how he fell for it like a child EVERY SINGLE TIME.

It takes a tremendous amount of TDS to actually have watched that and come away thinking Trump was the winner. Only MAGA cultists like Tom, who are truly too far gone to EVER come back from their brainwashing, could possibly come away with that opinion. And seeing them scramble to justify it like Tom is doing has just been madly entertaining.

I know Action80 is supposed to be super old, but does anyone else imagine a petulant ginger 10 year old (I don't know why ginger, it's just what I picture) sticking his fingers in his ears going "NUH UH!" when reading his posts?

Or is it just me?

Actually "train wreck" is an extremely spot-on way to describe Trump's whole campaign this year.

Whatever filter he might have had in the past he's lost. He's just another sad, pathetic racist at the old folks home at this point. Good luck winning an American election while simultaneously doing everything in your power to alienate black people.
