I just have a vision of trump realizing some rally goer is in trouble and asking his rally attendees to sell him some bottled water at three times the price.
All of that absolutely tracks for what I would expect of him. And honestly, I could imagine a number of people having similar reactions.
I feel the disconnect here is I can’t imagine someone going out of their way to tell the story unasked. Like, I feel even amongst the people who would do it they wouldn’t talk about it? And of those they wouldn’t talk about it in an interview, unprompted. That’s the truly baffling part, to me.
I think when you read that article it’s important to think critically about how it’s composed. I am as anti-trump as the next European “centrist dad”, but nothing I read there made me think he went out of his way to tell that story unprompted. I imagine he was interviewed, said a bunch of stuff, and then someone cherry-picked the quotes they needed to support the narrative of the article… You can’t just take it at face value!?
But they are giving the context in which he says it.
The story came about as he was discussing his uneasiness for looking at blood, which prompted him to recall the incident.
And I wouldn’t call it cherry picking if an article that says: Here is a bad thing Trump said in an old interview is quoting, well, said bad thing. In Context.
I mean, you are right about what they did. He said a lot of stuff and they represent the things that make him look bad. Doesn’t change that he said them tough.
he was right in front of me and I turned away. I didn’t want to touch him. He’s bleeding all over the place, I felt terrible. You know, beautiful marble floor, didn’t look like it. It changed colour. Became very red.
Holy shit it’s worse than what I expected
And you know what I did? I said, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ and I turned away.
…
And you have this poor guy, 80 years old, laying on the floor unconscious, and all the rich people are turning away…
🤔
I was saying, ‘Get that blood cleaned up! It’s disgusting!’ The next day, I forgot to call [the man] to say is he OK.
It’s just not my thing
"Personally I prefer supporters who don’t get heatstroke "
Get that poor some paper towels
Get that poor trash out of my rally
FTFY.
Internet has ruined me "big dad energy " sounds oddly sexual idk
Probably because big dick energy is the original phrase
But “big daddy energy” is definitely sexual
Anything is sexual if you try hard enough 🤷
After hearing about JD’s couch story, I believe you
“Hard”, hurhur
On behalf of the rest of the world, can I just say thank you to the democrats for getting themselves sorted out and getting into a state where they could beat the gibbering orange gibbon.
I’m sure the DNC will find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Let’s get Hilary, she’ll know what to do! And Debbie!
My new big fear is not that the democrats will fumble this, it’s that they will not anticipate that republicans are trying to make it so election officials (read: election deniers) can refuse to certify the election. If neither candidate gets to 270 votes, the Republican controlled house picks the president.
I for one would welcome UN election oversight (is that the right term?), it’d be a great kick in the balls to Orange Julius if Biden brought them in
“They brought in foreigners to steal the election!”
They’re gonna find something to bitch about regardless, might as well give election rules some teeth to nip it in the bud.
I suppose if you assume the worst will always happen, you’ll never be disappointed.
Hahaha, true. Really though, I am simultaneously energized to vote for Harris and wary of the DNC’s incompetence.
You’re either right or pleasantly surprised. Win win
I admit, I do generally take that attitude with movies. “This is going to suck” works pretty well.

The most urgent foreign policy issue right now is the ongoing genocide of Palestinians. I would say that walz did not display “big dad energy” when he refused to meet with Palestinian families from his state to discuss possible solutions (he was willing to meet, but only to listen and “bear witness” to their stories. That was the extent of his support)
Wow let me get my seatbelt on before you start swerving around.

And I’m sure the weirdos will use it to make some sort of pedophile joke…
Don’t know what you’re talking about… Priests and pastors tend to support Republicans 🤷

I get the reference but I’m not getting Jeb! vibes here at all?
There are certain people on the internet who have been conditioned to impulsively post any recognizable reference even if only tangentially related to a topic in hopes of getting some sort of response. It’s the redditor syndrome
Maybe, but I think they were trying to say that Tim Walz actually jumping off stage and helping someone who needs help is some sort of political virtue signalling and not, you know, what a lot of people would do in that situation.
It’s from the “Internet claps” in the title.
That’s what she said!!
What’s up, vanilla face?
What’s up, chicken butt?
“and I have to say, this idea of caring for our neighbor and kindness and a hand up when somebody needs it, or just the sense that people go through things, and to be able to be there when they need it, that’s who we are,” said Walz.
Warms my heart, America, that you might just elect a president and vice president who I’d gladly spend time with. Walz actually a decent guy. Well picked, Kamala.
Walz is the most wholesome person this presidential election. If he loses I will be so sad.
Trump is screwed
Remember to vote!
Somewhere people are probably claiming it’s staged.
Giving out free water? That’s some socialist agenda right there if I ever seen one. Next thing you know he’s gonna give people free bread and invite them to have free dinner.
He’d better not try that in Georgia, where giving water to people in line to vote is illegal.
