  1. The Cheetos didn't write this, it's WAY too coherent for his style

  2. Did whoever wrote this watch a different video, perhaps? It's literally bullshit

Yes, if a Republican intentionally uses their body to block a benign vehicle and unnecessarily escalates the situation by drawing their weapon then deadly force is required…

…but if a Republican is in a vehicle amongst peaceful protesters, then any vehicle becomes a weapon of self defence.

Reports now indicate that she shouted "By the way, I'm the one who falsely put Trump in the Epstein-Trump files, SAD!" before the ICE agent heroically gunned her down.

Trump, "and the radical-left media won't show you, but she had two bumper stickers: GREENLAND IS FOR GREENLANDERS, and ANTIFA-MOM"

If the radical left were 25% as radical as they make them out to be…

Oh that would already started a civil war, not just memes and angry posts, oh well, his cult already ate this up With a spoon

JFC. It's hard to accept that his base will probably default to this narrative, rather than just watch the video for themselves...but you know they will.

The next 2 days when he takes a cognitive test he should also gets ihis eyes checked. His vision is worse than the refs at a chiefs game

Don't worry, he is going to ACE the eye test. It's going to be the BEST eye test RESULT the optician has ever seen in his life and they'll be left in tears because of the glorious results.

And don't forget those tests can be HARD! You've got A's and B's and lots of little lines and blobs that are hippo's and giraffe and lions. And you have to know all these animals and recognise them to be a good president.

"Who seems to have shot her in self defense"

Not "who has..." "Who seems..."

Please give this man an eye exam if he can't see a bullet wound passed through the fucking skull. Let alone that it clearly wasn't in self-defense

“I’M KILLING YOU PEOPLE BECAUSE YOU ARE SO VIOLENT!! YOU’RE ALL RADICALS SO I HAVE TO ELIMINATE YOU ALL!!”

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The two videos available show clearly that ICE needlessly murdered a woman who was not putting them in any danger. Trump is either lying or lost in his demented fantasies.

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

This fucker wouldn't know integrity if it was as adhered to him like his spray tan.

The only reason that agent would've gone to the hospital would've been to make sure he finished the job and take out any witnesses.

Why are we granting this rapist attention?

[–] TheDemonBuer@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Fascists doing fascist things.

[–] nimble@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 days ago

Completely detached from reality

[–] GeriatricGambino@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Another great day to get up and live in the insane reality of fascism

Confabulation!

[–] stiffyGlitch@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

the "j" stands for "jackass"

[–] Shamber@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

You can't make this shit up😒

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 2 points 2 days ago

Lies.

Trump lies about ICE shooting a woman.

  1. Rage Against The Machine wrote a song about these times, called Killing In The Name.

  2. Adter reading that "truth" I believe drumpf may hallucinate more than ChatGPT.

[–] running_ragged@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Just remember, anyone, or anything can be posting those ‘truths’. There is no way to verify it’s actually him, or even his intent being represented by them.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

ChatGPT would be a dream president compared to Trump. Every weakness AI has is much worse with the current administration.
