https://www.youtube.com/live/2wMvp10TgSk?si=aJqaUqPdg5VrzkhB&t=5077 Former President Donald Trump held a town hall with Tulsi Gabbard in Wisconsin on Thursday -- but he didn't know it was a town hall until the event actually started. This is not based on insider information, this was exactly what Trump told the crowd that had gathered in LaCrosse. The whole conversation --
Is it really an insult when it’s an honest and accurate statement, though?
Harris is a Marxist?
If you find an actual Marxist that doesn’t despise Harris’ positions, let me know.
I assume that the people’s whose intelligence is being insulted is trump’s base- by telling those blatant and self evident lies.
We all know she’s not Marxist. But trump likes telling his base she is. (And they’re stupid enough to believe him.)
My mindset is that these people were tricked, and fell in far too deep. It’s like sunk cost fallacy: "I can’t say I’m wrong now, I’ve been the laughingstock of the family for 8 years! This time I’ll show 'em!
Eh I think it’s actually a little more sinister than that, I perceive a lot of these people as victims of a new type of cold war - cyber warfare including propaganda and election interference. Many of them have visible or otherwise obvious disabilities, genuinely. That they lack certain cognitive skills is exactly why they fell victim to this. And then once those people, the easy marks, started flocking there, all the other predators came after them too. It’s kinda sickening. Disabled people are one of the most abused groups of people along with children and the elderly.
Everyone deserves a vote and deserves to go to town halls and other campaign events. However there should really be something done about predatory practices done by campaigns and people who attend campaign events. They aren’t supposed to be there to sell books, they’re supposed to be earning votes and proposing policy. Anything aside from that should be scrutinized at minimum.
Whilst harris is closer to marx than trump, she is still in safe distance from communism.
Yes. We know that.
We’re not his audience, though. His base is his audience. And yes, they’re eating that shit up.
