Probably not going anywhere near people who are threatening them for existing.

He encouraged violence against his political rivals? If he had said anything close to that the Republican party would have never let it go.

Project Veritas founder James O'Keefe confirmed Monday his title as the CEO of guerilla journalism group has been "stripped" and that he had been "removed" from its board of directors following weeks of internal strife. ERIE, Pa. — The conservative group Project Veritas and its former leader are taking the unusual step of publicly acknowledging that claims of ballot mishandling at a Pennsylvania post office in 2020 were untrue. The statements from Project Veritas and founder James O’Keefe came as a lawsuit filed against them by a Pennsylvania postmaster was settled Monday. The group produced videos in the wake of the 2020 presidential election based on claims from a postal worker in Erie, Pennsylvania, who said he had overheard a conversation between the postmaster and a supervisor about illegally backdating mail-in presidential ballots. There's more than that, but he has been caught in many lies.

He's been outed as a fraud who edits his videos and has repeatedly been sued and lost. I also believe he is a convicted felon as a result of his activity.

I don't remember Obama making fun of handicapped people, calling for violence against his political opponents, or operating a fraudulent charity that stole from children and veterans. Must have missed all that.

It's like if you act like an asshole and say stupid things the media is going to report on that. And you also being a convicted felon. Imagine that.

I don't watch TikTok. That's for teenage girls and people with no lives. I definitely wouldn't consider that a reputable source of news or information.

Weird how once Trump started assailing the media for reporting on his shitty and unethical behavior did anyone but the fringe really believe that. Honestly I don't think the media really lies, I think they do sanitize the news. Mostly because Americans don't want to hear about all the bad stuff going on in other parts of the world and because most Americans don't care or want to understand what's going on or why there's a dozen armed conflicts in Africa going on. If a presidential candidate acts like an asshole to people and calls unfavorable reporting of him fake, then do you think the media is going to be nice to him? Probably not. If I walked into the gas station you work at and criticize how you do your job and called you names, then asked for a discount, do you think you'd be inclined to do anything to help me? Probably not.

Wee Willie needs money to cover his gambling losses (probably). So in order to keep his thumbs from being cut off (what a shame that would be) we get this.

Translation: Media that doesn't say what I like is fake.

Honestly if you act like an asshole to people in public and encourage violence you shouldn't exactly be surprised if it backfires in some way. The reason he lost and is likely to lose again is because he is an asshole to people who he disagrees with or doesn't like. For all of Bush II's miscues, the worst he had was somebody who threw a shoe at him and that pesky pretzel. This is despite being in charge of the country when we entered into a pointless war with only vaguely defined objectives that cost trillions and killed a lot of people. But he wasn't an asshole with no redeeming qualities.

Not sure how that is relevant to this topic.

I think there is a difference between being an angry weirdo and somebody who believes they are implausibly acting on behalf of somebody who doesn't know or care they exist. The guy who took a shot at Trump is dead, but from everything I read, it sounded like he just wanted to kill a famous politician and Trump was convenient. The other guy who didn't even get close, again just an angry weirdo. This guy, Comello told the court he thought that he was directly working on behalf of Trump and wouldn't face trouble over his actions because of it. If the Mafia ever finds him then I don't think they'll employ any kind of due process and kill him in some terrible way. I have yet to hear of anyone saying that they thought murdering people was something Biden, Harris, etc would immediately forgive them for.

If it was past the statute of limitations, then his lawyers should have easily had the charges dismissed. Some of what they alleged was past, but when you commit a crime like that, there are usually two things going on. You committed a crime, but you also had to conspire to do so. Conspiring to commit a crime is also illegal. That has a different limitation. Also when you do something to further another crime, that is also illegal. So if I use money from my business to pay a bribe to somebody, and then lie about the reason, that is illegal. So these are not "misdemeanors", these are things that if average people did them they would already be in jail for. And Trump's primary motivation for wanting to be president is to avoid going to prison, getting investigated more and charged with more crimes, and to use the office to enrich himself and people around him. The guy is so transparent about his motives. He really doesn't care about anyone or anything besides himself or his own interests.

Yes it is.

Was he running for office?

I don't think her motivation is staying out of prison or trying to avoid being prosecuted.

He didn't do so because he was delusional and believed that he was working directly on behalf of Clinton or whoever, and would get protected for his actions. He was just a nut who Democrats also condemned.

Because I think it's funny that it nearly caused a Mafia war to happen, and the truth behind it is even more bizarre than just a simple random shooting. Of all people to target, you target somebody like that for some strange reason, after failing to arrest two prominent politicians, and put yourself in danger, not just of going to prison, but being killed in retaliation extrajudicially. Only Trump could inspire that kind of batshit insane reasoning in people.

I actually don't know. Maybe I don't watch enough Fox News to recognize whoever that is. They must not have been very important if they aren't immediately recognizable.

Who exactly found him incompetent to stand trial? When was he ever deposed or even indicted or charged with something to stand trial?

Biden posted his income taxes on his campaign website. Trump won't release his.

I don't think many countries could really stop Israel from doing that. I don't think Iran is inept, maybe in some ways, but overall they are capable of more than most people probably think. But if they made a full on frontal assault, they'd lose badly even if they had some initial success. Similar to the 73 War. They'd have one shot to win and if they missed it would turn ugly for them in a hurry.

He's a clown that lives on credit. Practically everything he "owns" is mortgaged to the hilt. Why do you think he won't release his financial records? It's because he's terrified of people realizing he's in deep shit financially and no more American banks will do business with him. The day he croaks, will be the day his creditors seize everything. The only value he has is that he's dangerously close to becoming president again, otherwise his only other redeeming value is that he was an asshole to people on TV once. I won't bother pointing out his failure to success ratio. It's pretty skewed in one direction. The sad part is if he had done the bare minimum or almost nothing, he would be an actual billionaire and not have himself moved in all kinds of legal issues. But his stupid belief that he's some kind of business genius led him here. So he has nobody to blame but himself.
