This is getting wild with a 2 day old thread. I'm going to lock it.

Edit: It might not be troll baiting but rather some passionate takes. I took down the comments regardless if they were negative or not so it could settle down. Relax, you've probably already voted.

You want hypocrisy? Wait until you see the 180° flip on mail-in voting after this election. They’ve been telling us for five years that mail-in ballots are all fraudulent. Now that Democrats are telling women they can use in-person voting to undermine their husbands, I guarantee they will push to make mail-in voting far easier and shut down more polling places.

3D chess my ass.

If Epstein died during the Biden administration, Biden would have been blamed, and if there were pictures of them together, and creepy video of Biden talking about Epstein's preference for young girls, it would have been the only thing Republicans would discuss for years. But when it's Trump - they are silent.

They have always been hypocrites, assholes and cheaters.

Imagine if 9/11 happened during Obama's term and he just sat there with a stupid look on his face reading books to children, the right would have lost its shit.

To play Devil's Advocate, Dubya is an idiot, and he was literally in shock.

"Dick lied to be. He said all I needed to do was read the script, and smile. I didn't sign up for THIS shit!"

And there is sworn, corroborated testimony of a woman who had to pleasured Biden when she was a teenager while wearing a white glove there probably would have been riots in front of the white house.

They ARE still talking about Biden. The whole hair sniffing thing that went around. One of them brought that up the other day...Dude...you know Biden isn't in the race anymore right?

I was at a brewery a few months back when Biden was giving an announcement, this was before he dropped out of the race. I was mildly enjoying myself until some guy came in with his wife and just went off on Biden, and specifically orbited around "hunter needs him to stay in office so he can stay out of jail". Dude was wearing an FOP shirt so he's obviously an expert on knowing when felons should or shouldn't be in jail...

It's more projection. Trump needs to win so he can stay out of jail. Probably the only reason he's running at all.

[-] orbitz@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

I bet another big reason is that he can hold rallies and get his narcissistic high. Has to be awesome for a narcissist to hold events where people are there just to hear him ramble.

"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

“The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.”

Obama was a national disgrace after he demeaned the office of the President. He'd put his feet on the Oval Office desk; he'd failed to properly salute his Marine guard; he wore a tan suit.

Trump restored dignity to the office by simulating oral sex at a campaign rally.*

*edit = To those who are sending comments pointing out other transgressions, I know I probably missed the one that offended you the most.

Talking about Trump is like talking about an anime that's been running for fifty seasons; if yopu talk about the hero fighting a dragon you have to specify which one.

[-] halykthered@lemmy.ml 55 points 2 days ago

Dude saluted a foreign military officer, to the confusion of all.

Even better, they bitched and moaned about Epstein and Clinton (and probably still do). Trump is a special boy.

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 67 points 2 days ago

Clinton flew on Epstein's plane or whatever.

Trump bragged about being best friends with Epstein and the kind of girls that Epstein always had around.

The hypocritical double standard of MAGA voters couldn't be more blatant if it was intentional.

No no no, it only counts when "Others" do it, our own sins are "forgivable" for we are special, if we weren't we wouldn't be us.

To suggest Republicans only argue in bad faith is to suggest that water is transparent.

Yesterday I watched some lady hand-wave away Trump's actions by saying "we're all sinners, and trump deserves our forgiveness just like we deserve Jesus' forgiveness". I mean, first of all, none of us deserve Jesus forgiveness. That's a core teaching in Christianity. The entire meaning of grace is that it's given regardless of worthiness. Secondly, what kind of wack-ass logic is that? She thinks trump is the better choice because of his crimes, since it makes him more human. I'm sorry, what? Then she went on to rant about how illegal aliens are destroying the country. So, I guess only rich assholes get the grace treatment, and poor immigrants get the stick.
