Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

The only reason he posted it was so people talked about it instead of Epstein.
I wouldn't be surprised if they told Republicans to pretend to be offended just so it would become a story.
Stop falling for obvious distractions
The GOP have been silent during this entire Epstein saga. This has to do with them losing in special elections. That's why they finally woke up.
They haven't "woken up" that's the entire point I'm trying to make.
trump posting this video distracts from Epstein, but what's more distracting is some Republicans who are in the greatest threat of losing their seats getting a chance to distance from trump. Which starts another cycle of people talking about it instead of Epstein.
Oh my god, it was a figure of speech.
One that you used incorrectly...
Who gives a shit? This was my point that you ignored: "The GOP have been silent during this entire Epstein saga. This has to do with them losing in special elections."
Right...
And there's even more wrong with that comment than what I pointed out...
But if explaining one this is this difficult, why the fuck would I try explaining multiple things at once to you?
Hell, at this point I don't think I'll ever be able to help you understand anything.
You're on your own bud, best of luck
I don't think he opened up his laptop, created the video, then posted it himself. It's best to keep in mind that there are other people behind this. Someone had the idea, someone produced a few versions, someone approved one, someone posted it. And he got to reap the reward while dodging responsibility. They're all guilty.
The regime is more than one person
I think it has more to do with people not talking about him trying to nationalize the elections. Using ICE to intimidate voters in democratic centers, Usng the SAVE act disproportionately disenfranchise groups more likely to be democrats: women, people of colour, low income, or young voters. These are key issues which need pushback on this year.
