[Politics] Donald Trump, US President Elect 2025

[marlowe]

I didn't realise how creepy Trump's behaviour was at his last Presidential debate with a woman. He really betrayed his natural instincts. It's almost predatory and that's in plain sight in front of a TV audience. It gives an insight into how he might behave towards women in private when they are in a much more vulnerable and intimidatory situation.

I wonder if he has been advised not to repeat that behaviour during the debate with Harris.

I’m watching MSNBC through my Aunt’s account in Michigan. - very left wing bias (but I love Rachel Maddow)

• In his first 2 minutes Trump has gone in an uncontrolled rant over immigration and ‘people pouring into the Country’.
• Already made a racist dig which Harris acknowledged.
• Trump lying about his connections to project 25 and the pandemic.
• Trump accusing Harris of wanting abortion even after the 9th month - Female moderator in a deadpan tone responds to Trump by fact checking him saying ‘there is no State in this Country where it is legal to abort a baby after it is born’
• Trump reverted back to millions of people ‘pouring into our Country’ when the question was about tariffs

Through to the next round of debates here lad and ladette, no excuses.

I don't care how much it offends the liberals on here, but I am categorically against baby executions!

 

[Zeberdi]

Brilliant!

Trump now accusing immigrants from ‘eating our dogs’ and ‘eating our cats’ because he saw someone saying so on television’. Harris pissing herself laughing.

She has him in the palm of her hand pushing all his buttons.

I am thoroughly enjoying this.

Trump is sounding completely unhinged.

Good stuff from the moderators calling Trump on the worst of his bullshit.

He didn't answer the question about how he will deport 11 million undocumented immigrants but instead ranted about Biden letting them all in with the result that crime is through the roof (it isn't) and they are eating pet dogs.

Is this about the Haitian voodoo thing?

Is this about the Haitian voodoo thing?

No. It's the MAGA racist thing

 

[US Seagull]

So did Donald just say that Harris will do gender reassigned surgery on illegals in prison?

And he's not losing his mind?

 

[jcdenton08]

No. It's the MAGA racist thing

Please stay calm. I’m not watching it, so I wondered if he was referring to the Haitian voodoo thing.

 

[Zeberdi]

Trump now derailing the debate by demanding Harris go and wake up Biden to close the border because the debate ‘ is a waste of time’.

Harris is managing him very well - explaining her policies while winding Trump up enough to send him off script and into a frenzy.

Telling him world leaders are laughing at him now. Perfectly baiting Trump
into boasting about his relationships with Dictators

 

[Deadly Danson]

He is losing this big time thankfully. He sounds utterly utterly unhinged.

 

[Seagull58]

Is this about the Haitian voodoo thing?

No, it's the claim that 20,000 Haitian immigrants in Springfield are eating pet cats and dogs, and ducks from the local ponds and rivers.

 

[Seagull58]

He is losing this big time thankfully. He sounds utterly utterly unhinged.

He is saying all the stuff his base loves, even insisting that he won the last election and was being sarcastic when he recently said he lost it.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I think Trump is coked up. He's rushing, he's repeating himself, he's engaging in whataboutery. One hour in there's no one who can possibly claim he's winning this debate.

He will blame ABC moderation.

Coked up? He’s just a moron. He’s easy enough to ridicule without baseless claims. Leave that to him and his followers

The worrying thing is, there are people out there that believe it and think he is the answer.

Springfield, Ohio

https://www.npr.org/2024/09/10/nx-s1-5107320/jd-vance-springfield-ohio-haitians-pets

Vance, who represents Ohio in the U.S. Senate, spread a debunked claim about Haitian migrants living in the city of Springfield, Ohio, on Monday, accusing them of abducting pets and eating them.

The claim, which local police say is baseless, was made by far-right activists, local Republicans and neo-Nazis before being picked up by Vance. A well-known advocate for the Haitian community says she received a wave of racist harassment in the aftermath of Vance's post.

Maybe but it's not his base he needs to convince. No one with an ounce of intelligence would ever vote for this lunatic.
