The Walking Eagle thread

it looks like he is still adding them. When i first read it this morning their were only around 14 tweets as he had taken a break to write something else. The last one (23) is showing as having been added about 13 minutes ago according to my twitter feed.

And not just for the apprentice, but for the way in which CNN handled his run. It is astonish to me that for all the vitriol he and his supporters have towards “the fake news CNN and MSNBC”, those two networks probably did as much as even fox did to legitimize him with the way they allowed him and his mouth pieces on day after day to lie with impunity while suffering almost no push back.

I dont think anyone who watched MSNBC would have voted for him, but that stuff makes it out into the conversation in a way that people on the fence would have seen Kellyanne or someone brazenly lying and getting no push back and over time been swayed.

yeah i have to admit i found the spectacle darkly amusing at first, even though i was denouncing trump as a silver spoon dipshit coward on construction sites from the day he came down the escalator (because he’s afraid of stairs)

by the spring of 2016 CNN’s role in creating a monster with their breathless wall-to-wall coverage was quite obvious

on the other topic, the trump campaign’s strategy of depressing black turnout was equally obvious

i’d say nobody is dumb enough for fall for project veritas videos, but the dems defunded ACORN (their own GOTV operation) based on them when obama was president & they had a supermajority

even putting aside what a corrupt, bloodthirsty ghoul her husband was, cindy mccain is a racist heiress who called the cops on a mixed-race family because she assumed there was human trafficking involved

oregon governor calls state of emergency over unpermitted proud boy event, leading to federal deputization of portland-area cops. they watch the proud boys assault and detain people, then when night falls brutalize counterprotesters

so the end result will be federal charges for people who bleed on portland cops as they’re getting clubbed by them

‘officers have faced unspeakable violence’. CITATION NEEDED

The NYT has a paywall, but you can read 5 for free in a month, I think.

Anyways, whilst literally nothing in here was surprising, I still find myself baffled at the idea that people think he will stick up for the little guy, when really, he has for years been doing his utmost to bilk them.

The best rationalisation I have seen thus far was, ‘Yeah, but Hunter Biden…’

the MAGA hordes go from cheering on violence against protesters to crying over that dipshit michael flynn, i just assume every right-wing argument is made in bad faith

like my rule of automatically taking the opposite position of the US state dept on every issue, it rarely steers me wrong

jesus christ this is grim

I wanna beat them both with Erskine May.

really inspired by biden’s mumbled insistence that the police are the victims of their violence, gonna vote twice now

I have been watching the debate and trying to sum up my feelings on BOTH candidates and it came from the Adam Sandler movie ---- Billy Madison.

(Can’t believe one of these yahoos will be in charge for 4 years).

biden thought bringing up st beau was going to be some kind of kill shot, and trump just shrugged it off

i don’t think this moved the needle either way, just reinforced that more people will stay home than vote for either of these clowns

wallace is a useless embarrassment of a moderator

Donald Trump asked if he would denounce racist right wing groups and replies “Proud Boys, stand back and stand by… Someone has to do something about Antifa”.

That sounds a lot like he just called for Proud Boys members to attack “Antifa”.
