    Friendly reminder that an Immigrant African American Welfare Queen, with numerous baby mommas and children he don’t even talk to, is a foreign actor attempting to sway American Elections by spreading fake news. Truly the enemy within that needs to be addressed, there is a reason he travels with as many as 20 bodyguards just to touch grass Source.

      “The probability that a homicidal maniac will try to kill you is proportionate to how many homicidal maniacs hear your name,” he said. “So they hear my name a lot — I’m like, ‘OK, I’m on the list,’ you know.”

      this makes it sound like high profile assassinations are caused by a bunch of “maniacs” pulling names out of hats

        Considering the first attempt on Trump’s life, and I hate to admit it, but he’s not that far off. I can’t tell you how large of a quantity it is, but trump sure riled up a bunch of mentally ill people who may or may not have a good grasp of their mental stability.

          If the assassins weren’t deranged, they would choose their targets better. If you want to effect political change through assassination, you don’t target the puppet. You target the person controlling the puppet.

            You’re describing professional hits like governments do. Our shootings in this country are 99.9% by crazy lone gunmen.

    Didn’t Dominion already win at least one defamation lawsuit because some jackass was spewing these lies? Gonna love seeing Elmo have to pay up, just a shame it won’t cost him enough to make him shut the fuck up.

    “The last thing I would do is trust a computer program”

    What a weird thing to say from someone that sells a car he says will eventually drive itself.

      To be fair, I wouldn’t trust a computer program for voting either, but I would trust and ride in an autonomously landing rocket.

      Which is why I much prefer the scantron type fill in the bubble ballots, you get a full digital count with an easily cross referenced ballot.

        So you fully trust computers that can kill you and others without a thought, but you don’t trust a computer to do the insanely simpler task of “count paper?”

        Also, musk and all the other disingenuous shitheads are complaining about any digital counting, including your preferred scantron ballots. They want very slow, flaw ridden human counting only, so they can inject chaos and noise into the electorial system and force the “congress picks the president” process in our constitution that will always favor the GOP.

        Paper ballots are already used in 98% of all US elections, they are just counted digitally. These are not serious people with serious concerns.

      not to mention brain chips. Remember, every accusation is a confession with the MAGA crowd. I bet we’d find a few gems in the code for tesla and twitter now
