      Many people are saying he’s the weirdest. Tremendous amounts of people are saying it.

          Yeah, but none of that bothers his supporters as much as calling him weird. Which is pretty weird if you ask me.

            Maybe it’s because they’re weird too? Which is also a bit weird. Do we still call them Trumpers or just weirdos?

              I’ve been pointing out how fuckin weird it is to care about half the shit they care about for years. I work blue collar so I’ve learned to keep my thoughts and beliefs to myself (it’s too much fuckin work otherwise), but every now and then I’d chime in with a “Why should the GOVERNMENT care about what consenting adults do?” or “Why should the GOVERNMENT have the power to dictate women’s health care?” etc

              It works quite well if you point out the obvious disconnect between wanting “small government” and feeling like the State should be their personal nanny/drill sergeant. I’ve had quite a few stereotypical conservative guys go “hey yeah that is kinda weird, fuck the gubmint”. They’re also typically fans of my case that I don’t care what color tie a politician wears, a crook is a crook. They nod solemnly, then leave before that reaches its natural conclusion.

              My two cents

            True, it is bugging them.

            I’m still sticking with rapist and fraud since they’ve been proven in a court of law.

              If weird were illegal, Trump would have been in jail since calling columnists, pretending to be someone else, to get it out that he was hot property in his dating life. I don’t see anything that has changed.

              In Trump’s first election run, Trump continually stole the light by saying the weirdest thing possible. All the attention was on Trump, while the entire field of serious candiDates were out-rizzed, by the weirdest guy in the Republican field.

              Now, he is just a creepy, weird old guy that needs diapers.

                To be clear, if someone needs diapers - that sucks and that’s nothing to hassle anyone about. Unless they’re (supposedly) a billionaire, unfathomably vain, an enormous sociopath, an asshole, a rapist, and a convicted fraud, who pose a true existential threat to America and the planet as a whole. In the latter case, fuck those people.

        He’s already claiming she’s Canadian because she lived there when she was 12 and that’s where her mother worked at that time. So we’re aren’t long now from demanding long form birth certs.

              Giuliani can’t afford to go to Canada. Sadly, he probably wouldn’t be able to find it even if you flung him over Niagara Falls with a trebuchet.

                Would Canada let Giuliani in? Canada has standards, and 9 felonies, even when not convicted yet, is a red flag.

                  You can’t get into Canada if you have a DUI. Trump would need special permission to enter Canada.

                    If you travel by land or from the US and don’t need a visa/visa waiver, you can. I can’t understand how that draconian law could be enforced if the Canadian Government wasn’t able to do a background check.

        He’ll probably say she was born in both Jamaica and India. She’s Schrodinger’s presidential candidate (and analogy that is even more relevant after Vance’s stupid 'cat lady ’ comment).

      She turned black the day Trump found out.

      Just like the Dems turned into pedophile, racist, fascist groomers only after Trump left.

      And Epstein turned rapist-pedo-trafficker the day Trump left him.

        Last time I checked, Americans can be black. Indian-American doesn’t inherently mean Indian/White.

              I got it from The Daily Show’s Instagram account. They put together screenshots and clips for a lot of their jokes. So if you’re ever looking for something specific, it’s worth checking there.

                It wasn’t, nor is it now, being hidden. Some reporters are more interested in her black heritage and others in her Indian heritage, and the overall context of the piece also factors into that. But by and large, “left” leaning outlets haven’t paid a whole ton of attention to her race as it doesn’t fucking matter. However, Republicans sure as shit have been very vocal about hee “blackness” and are now all “omg, but she’s Indian heritage, too, and we haven’t even dug into that. HoW COuLD thE LeFT Do ThIS tO Us?!?!”

                Honestly, conservatives have become so transparently ratfuck racist with their attacks on Harris, it’s beyond wild. So tired of hearing pudgy white old dudes screech about “DEI” and not realize how INSANELY racist that is.

                Her Indian heritage wasn’t hidden. Until Republicans, she was just American with a heritage, like the rest of us. It was just that no one cared. Raphael Cruz changed his name to fit in. There is a pattern.

        you do know what “first” means, right? she wasn’t the first black senator so they didn’t mention that in 2016. and in 2020 first black woman as a VP candidate is more important than first Indian woman just because of demographics, so they highlighted that. but when she was VP both firsts were mentioned in news.

        Yeah, just keep questioning people’s racial heritage. That’s a totally normal thing to do that will help the Trump Cult win more supporters. Great job!
