Insisting it was staged is retarded at all levels.
The left called it staged within minutes of it occuring.
What is odd is when people echo those sentiments despite being shown from what is now closer to dozens of different angles.
When a narrative is sown by media rhetoric within minutes, it is intellectually dishonest to insist their narrative is correct.
The leftists have been trying to seed this narrative since the moment it happened and therefore I deeply question the integrity of people who are arguing on their behalf.
This would be impossible to pull off without something breaking somewhere unless every single person was a crisis actor, which is opening yourself up to a 1.5B lawsuit on Texas.
People don't get it at this point still.
Moves and countermoves. There are no countermoves unless the other side is still in play.
When has James O'Keefe ever impugned his word?
The risk makes no sense on literally any level.
They could be compromised, they could be tired, they could shake from anticipation or anxiety. No matter how disciplined someone is, there are hundreds of variables or even thousands of variables that could lead to that shot connecting.
Unironically smarter than 90% of leftists who have cheered about this.
Her plausible deniability skills are well practiced.
No investigation should be required.
It's only really astonishing when you ignore Trump's unadvertised good deeds and all the other campaigns GoFundMe has cancelled.
Still, I'm glad people have come together for this fundraising campaign.
Trump has not blamed Secret Service. Nor the police.
It seems that is our role.
He make the Democrats go waaah!
Wait, that's nothing new though.
This person needs to be evicted from their home and sent to an insane asylum.
Rev is always a funny one.
Kirsche is also totally based.
To think, all these people had to do was not say anything at all. But they literally couldn't keep their evil glee from escaping.
And this is of course exactly why it's time to engage them on the battlefield under the terms they laid out. Cancel culture is a bludgeon, but it can be used for good too.
Maybe some patriots will get the jobs that open up. At the very least, maybe people who have some professional intellect to not represent their companies in that way.
Yes, he is donating $45M a month.
His left foot is planted on the ground and obscured by his right leg.
It looks like he is rushing for a position for a picture.
It's true, of course. Neither side wanted a war, no matter the saber rattling North Korea had been known for.
I'm happy to see him.
Moreover, I'm happy to see him smiling.
I am willing to grant that 4-7 years is enough time for maturity and change in relation to opinions and beliefs once held.
A lot can change in 4-7 years.
A fat man can become lean and chiseled.
A country can go from prosperous to an economic crisis.
But there's going to be adversity for the person or thing changing, in this case -- and especially compounded by D.C. backstabbing -- people will question his motives and present beliefs. They are right to do so, too.
But this is the hand we were dealt and all we can do is hope for the best. Anyone saying they won't vote for this ticket is, frankly, not in a sound state of mind considering the alternative.
F him. I'm not voting for this ticket
Well, then you're part of the problem.
This may suck from certain PoVs and I don't think you're wrong for questioning it, but consigning this country to death because you don't like the VP pick is retarded.
A couple good points, but we'll have to see how it pans out. I got my personal wish (no Scott, no Haley) so that's why I don't have too many personal complaints against him as a person.
Oh, so these are the Jojo memes.
I think my biggest personal frustration is that no one can really give a viable reason or positive benefit for JD Vance.
It keeps boiling down to "Trump picked him, just accept it and shut up" which doesn't sit well.
What's the difference?! Two letters!
I'm joking of course. I'm uncertain about him. I already did not feel I knew enough about him as a voter, and what I do know I'm not comfortable with as a 2028 nominee.
4 consecutive years is not enough time to fix everything, so the whole strategy made more sense to pick someone who could shine in their own right.
Picking someone who has a history of being on the bad side of the existing base does not inspire confidence and normies around me are already showing concern and it has not even been two hours.
I'm personally just glad it's not Haley or Scott. But normie response matters more than guaranteed votes like me or the people here.
Of course they don't mean that, I was joking around!
If JFK Jr randomly popped up that'd be great because it would instantly validate basically everything for normies. But I think if they had that trump card, it probably would have been played by now.
I think the stance that Trump can eliminate 3 letter agencies with the stroke of a pen is wishful thinking.
The legal war that would be waged would in itself last possibly years.
Trump may have his reasons about Vance, but he didn't really sell it and I am not seeing any strengths he really offers compared to other options.
There were always going to be people upset no matter who he chose, but a good number of those "bad" picks had obvious strengths that anyone could reason.
It's not going over super well, and people are also trying to suppress criticism already and when that happens it always catches my attention.
Being staged IS the narrative.
