there's a lot of genuine stuff, you guys are just frothing at the mouth and literally try to turn anything he says or does into the worst possible thing and that's why you don't have any credibility and why this man is very easily able to deflect everything he's actually done because there's so much nonsense surrounding it that it's incredibly easy to dismiss as a witch hunt

what he said was no different than biden's you ain't black comment

But how will we know what's legit and what isn't to criticise? Should we run it by you first?

as bad a system as that would be, it'd still be better than just assuming 100% of what he does is the worst thing possible

Can ask me when I have time

Holding up aid to Ukraine and secretly asking for a sham investigation into a US citizen and your main political rival and the public only finding out about it because of a whistle blower after you tried to hide it is fine because Obama and Biden conditioned aid to Ukraine publicly on actions considered beneficial to the US on a bipartisan basis. We can maybe make a share point WhatAbout.txt filled with handy facts like that for whenever someone dares criticize Trump.

Price gouging is a pejorative term used to refer to the practice of increasing the prices of goods, services, or commodities to a level much higher than is considered reasonable or fair by some. This commonly applies to price increases of basic necessities after natural disasters. Usually, this event occurs after a demand or supply shock. The term can also be used to refer to profits obtained by practices inconsistent with a competitive free market, or to windfall profits.

Your party media, the media you guys militarily own and control, the media who want Harris to win above everything else, who lied incessantly at every step to help democrats in the last 20+ years, said

Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday proposed a ban on “price gouging” by food suppliers and grocery stores, as part of a broader agenda aimed at lowering the cost of housing, medicine, and food.

Check you out, acting all busy and important. Bro, everyone here knows that you always have time.

What is it you think you're demonstrating with that quote? You do realize in that quote she included "food suppliers". Did you think that bolding "grocery stores" would somehow make her mention of "food suppliers" disappear?

As for the "blah blah blah media blah blah blah lied for 20+ years", you're sounding like Trump.

Agreed.

I would like to point out that the reason for this coming back up is I was showing that the left actually can criticize each other and disagree. The centrists that claim that “everyone who votes democrats is blue maga” are just coping and projecting their own partisan hackery onto us.

ya Democrat partisans are famously willing to engage in dialogue and consideration with the left.


Ohio Republican Governor Condemns Trump, Vance in NYT Op-Ed

In his op-ed for the Times titled, "I'm the Governor of Ohio. I Don't Recognize the Springfield That Trump and Vance Describe," DeWine wrote, "Springfield has a rich history of providing refuge for the oppressed and being a place of opportunity. As a stop on the Underground Railroad, the Gammon House, which still stands, was a safe haven for escaped slaves seeking freedom. It is disappointing to me that Springfield has become the epicenter of vitriol over America's immigration policy, because it has long been a community of great diversity."

The governor added: "As a supporter of former President Donald Trump and Senator JD Vance, I am saddened by how they and others continue to repeat claims that lack evidence and disparage the legal migrants living in Springfield. This rhetoric hurts the city and its people, and it hurts those who have spent their lives there."

I agree with the principal behind this post but there’s a massive problem with this line of thinking. Donald trump is an incredibly stupid man who is incapable of nuance, and is a historical outlier in how far swimming in the waters of race baiting, fear mongering and pandering to the worst circles in America that up til him no legitimate presidential candidate would ever be caught dead swimming with

For all the things he does and says that would correctly label him the most racist, divisive, and hate mongering president who has ever lived, there are consequences where trying to contextualize what he says is not a luxury he should ever be allowed to be afforded. Even if you roll your eyes at the liberal outrage to something that in full context isn’t nearly as bad, the same radicalized groups look at those same snippets and are using it as proof the Jews suck. I doubt Trump really meant ‘stand back and stand by’ as a call to arms to the proud boys, but they sure thought it was, and many of them were arrested for J6

He wasn't talking about your kind, sonny. There is no "dialogue and consideration" with bad faith extremists/propagandists. Back in your box.

Rickroll watching Trump going round shooting people in the dick: "guys, you are really misrepresenting what is going on here, he is obviously going for the legs, he just has really bad aim. We don't need to accuse him of shooting people in the dick on purpose, that's really unfair."

As for the "blah blah blah media blah blah blah lied for 20+ years", you're sounding like Trump.

And for the food suppliers it is trust behavior, not gouging (which wouldn't be illegal at the federal level, unlike price coordination which is).

Which the Biden-Harris DOJ per your article was trying to prosecute 1 year ago.

How is that going?

Even Trump can say true things, like the fact the media is owned, controlled and directed by the democratic party with very few exceptions

right bc they were so happy to embrace AOC and Bernie too (who are decidedly not my "kind") and didnt try to run them out of town.

I don't know how you can think Jew haters can ever think Trump, who moved the american embassy to Jerusalem, is antisemitic or that he won't go all in more than any democrat to help Israel kill as many Islamic terrorists as possible disregarding any civilian Arab casualties.

Which is why actual neonazis like Fuentes have been criticizing Trump for months

Not even Bernie is enough for you?

Your first paragraph is utter nonsense. No one will take your media criticism seriously if that’s what you actually believe.

Jesus christ I just realized you linked AP as a democratic party operative. Wow dude, you are out of touch with reality.

More than 90% of journalists identify as liberals or very liberal in the USA

That has absolutely nothing to do with your claim. Are you ok dude?


by pocket_zeros k

Trump says ‘Jewish people would have a lot to do’ with his loss ‘if that happens’

He did this at an event on antisemitism.


its so funny to read posts on here and then see them refuted indisputably almost immediately.

here are the Dems leaving a left wing party member out to dry after racist attacks on her. arent the Dems the party of minority rights and inclusivity?


by checkraisdraw k

That has absolutely nothing to do with your claim. Are you ok dude?

Oh you want the claim clarified as "controlled by the democratic party or believing the same set of ideas the DNC push for regularly and behaving exactly as if they were paid actors for the DNC even if that happens organically because they all happen to agree with every single thing the democratic party decides to push at every single moment," ok.

Man they were ALL with "Biden is very sharp", one week later they all changed their minds (and not after the debate, after the DNC said Harris was the candidate).

Jfc are we living in the same reality?


i really think you guys need more bill maher in your lives

i really think you guys need more bill maher in your lives

Which is a comedian, not news.

He was more balanced than I expected and he started way earlier, I accept that.

And the democratic party hated it deeply and he is now being called bad names by the left

How is that going?

Antitrust suits are complicated and sometimes take years to prosecute. Much longer than the average attention span of a hot take like yours.

Yeah few exceptions like how the most successful "news" media company is conservative. More of the same victim mentality nonsense talking points by conservatives.
