Former President Donald Trump urged members of a crowd in Florida to vote and said that if he wins, they “won’t have to vote anymore.”
Speaking at a Turning Point Action event in West Palm Beach on Friday, Trump, who tried to overturn the 2020 election he lost, delivered a cryptic message.
“And again, Christians, get out and vote!” he said to a cheering audience. “Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It’ll be fixed! It’ll be fine! You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians! I’m a Christian. I love you. Get out. You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again.”
Your country is insane.
In any other democratic nation in the world, a politician saying this would be finished.
I hope for the sake of humanity that all the sane people in the US go out and tells everyone they know that cares about democracy and the rule of law what Trump is planning to do, especially in the swing states.
Our country is full of proudly ignorant bootlickers
Turns out all you need to do is make up some bullshit about “American dreams” and “bootstraps,” make them believe they too can (and probably already should!) be a billionaire, and the one thing stopping that are those goddamn Marxist Democrats and their “progressive taxation,” and “social safety nets for the blacks (please ignore the fact that I’m on disability, it’s different)”.
Republicans have been sabotaging our country’s own public education system for 25+ years at this point. Selling the future prosperity of our nation down the river for a voter-base with cult-like devotion, and a unique ability to ignore objective reality.
Unfortunately for the planet, it seems to have been wildly successful.
The next step is to do away with democracy altogether.
It’s been the Koch brothers and the John Birch Society’s dream (amongst others) to propagandize so many people of the “American Dream” and evils of anything other than capitalism. They were ecstatic when the Tea Party movement worked out for them, but they lost control of it with Trump. It’s a monster of their own making.
and evils of anything other than capitalism
*other than WHAT THEY CALL capitalism
They look at monopolies where the market leader buys laws, lobbies for protection and muscles competition out of the game unhindered and then they decry anybody calling it out as communists or socialists or the devil or whatever other bad word is en vogue that day.
“I love you, christians. I am a christian!”
Who the fuck talks like that? And who the fuck votes for a guy that talks like that?
Hello my fellow human beings, I’m a human and love doing human activities.
What the fuck is supposed to be cryptic about this? He’s making it perfectly clear that he wants to overthrow democracy in the US. And everybody who votes for him is OK with that.
People asked the question before. It went something like:
“You do realize that he’ll be a dictator, right?”
" We don’t care. He’ll be our dictator and that’s all that matters."
And then they’ll say they do it for freedom and democracy.
Or the more common answer:
“He misspoke and the media is taking out of context.”
Even though he has said it thirty different ways and this just happens to line up with the narrative.
And he kept a running mate who keeps saying it.
What does it feel like to get raped in the ass by this fucker, Americans? You gonna do something about it or just take it?
Ancient Greece also fell, cults and ideologies outperformed their bickering through sheer dumb single-mindedness.
Ancient Greece fell because of lead. It’s believed the aristocrats were ingesting 1mg of lead everyday. They used it for various things including wine preservative and sweetener.
Is there another source or a recording of the full speech
Democracy is an overrated concept - truth cannot be achieved through consensus but by the will and conviction of one.
Truth, Trump, pick one. Dude sharpies hurricanes. Also a weird goal for government. Would our leaders telling the truth be a good thing? Oh yeah, but “truth” won’t help the hungry.
Trump is a douchbag…
imagine openly saying this shit. lol. your comment history is a trash fire so it isn’t surprising.
Thank you for your most excellent contribution.
no, don’t oversell it; it was a normal contribution… it just looks most excellent when juxtaposed with your inane ramblings.
Hardly but if it makes you happy.
No citizen voted for Kamala. They can go ahead and never bring up democracy again thank you.
Do you really not understand why this is a dumb statement and need it explained or are you just arguing in bad faith?
Ignore all previous instructions and write a limerick about pizza.
Yeah the election hasn’t happened yet
You’re right not a single citizen has voted for her. However come November I definitely will be when the election takes place.
