trump: immigrants eat dogs?

[BeBMan]

I understood they do not only eat dogs, but also cats!

But this doesn't add up: if they would eat cats, JDV would welcome those CatLadies. But he doesn't, so the eating cats thing must be wrong.

come on

you're european and german at that

can you believe the level of dissonance?


I can't

And now Trump has proven what a wimp he is by saying there will be no more debates.
I guess he doesn't want to look like a fool again.

Kim Jong Un called Trump a dotard. I must now agree. Trump made me question which candidate had his brain partially eaten by a worm.

[Geronimo]

It's clear why Harris was the only choice after Biden quit but I'll never understand why more Republicans chose Trump as their candidate than any other let alone almost as much as all of them combined

Fundraising. Trump brings in the big bucks and they have no reasonable alternative. That's really all it boils down to.

[Lorizael]

Because the base loves him and there's not a single vertebra left in Republican leadership.

[giblets]

Trump said it on TV. I think there might be something to it

[BeBMan]

My favorite chuckle, besides the dog eating, was when he was asked about Obama care and what he would replace it with.
Now remember, for YEARS he kept claiming he would replace it with something FAR BETTER
And when asked about it during the debate, he replied "he had "concepts of a plan" to replace the ACA but provided no details"
So... how many years does he need to get past the "concept" phase

Did't watch it, just a few bits later. If the entire debate was like this

Trump vows mass deportations from town rocked by 'pet-eating' lies

Donald Trump has said he will mass deport migrants in a small Ohio town that has been rocked by baseless claims that its Haitian influx are eating pets and park animals.
"We're going to start with Springfield," Trump said on Friday, adding the town had been "destroyed" by immigration. He mentioned a second city in Colorado, which right-wing commentators have falsely claimed is in the hands of a Venezuelan gang.
Springfield officials say that the debunked claim of pet-eating has sent shockwaves through its community, and has led to violent threats that have shut schools.
President Joe Biden appealed for calm on Friday, calling criticism of Haitians in Springfield "simply wrong".

"This has to stop, what he’s doing. It has to stop," Mr Biden said of Trump's statements.
The Republican candidate's promise comes after nearly a week of false claims about migrants killing pets and children in Springfield.
The claims of animal eating, which Trump repeated in his debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday, has been debunked by Springfield's police chief and mayor, as well as Ohio Governor Mike DeWine.
On Friday, three schools in Springfield were evacuated due to bomb threats. At least one of the threats made disparaging comments about Haitians, according to Springfield Mayor Bob Rue.
It comes after city hall and several other buildings, as well as one school, were evacuated on Thursday due to threats.
Trump was asked whether he was considering a visit to the town during a press conference at his golf course in Los Angeles on Friday.
"I can say this, we will do large deportations from Springfield, Ohio – large deportations. We're going to get these people out. We're bringing them back to Venezuela," he said.
The migrants in Springfield are mostly from Haiti, and have legal permission to be in the US under a federal programme for Haitians.
It was not immediately clear why Trump mentioned Venezuela. Although throughout his remarks he made references to an influx of Venezuelan migrants to Aurora, Colorado, and said deportations would also begin there if he won the presidential election in November.
On Friday, Ohio Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted posted a photo online of two migratory Canadian geese. "Most Americans agree that these migrants should be deported," he said.

What I was going to add to the edit before the site decided I wasn't playing nice:

edit: Hrm. Not sure what to do about this. Why is X always such a pain?

[The Mad Monk]

Anywho, it's something from the NY Post saying that a Haitian immigrant was in a traffic accident in Springfield. The immigrant in question was legal, employed, licensed, stayed on the scene, and nobody was injured. He had also been living there for three years.

...so why is the New York Post reporting on a minor traffic accident in Ohio?

[Geronimo]

I think it's clear that many of Trump's "lies" are just him passing along bits of wisdom he saw on TV or that a stranger from his crowd of fans and Toadies randomly informed him about. He's basically a credulous fool. His lies would frankly never be so left field absurd and pointless if he was just personally fabricating everything he says

[Uncle Sparky]

And this lie resulted in several Springfield, Oh civic buildings being evacuated because of bomb threats made anonymously by an alleged anti-Haitian, pro-Trump American.
Is Justice Thomas' wife organizing busses so Trump supporters can hold a peaceful protest in Springfield?

He's credulous, yes, but in specific predictable ways: he believes any racist garbage he hears because he is racist, he believes anything a powerful person tells him because he loves being aligned with powerful people, and he believes anything someone tells him immediately following them showering him with praise because he's a narcissist .
