Trump pointed to Biden and Harris’ past comments casting Trump as a “threat to democracy,” while telling Americans they are “unity” leaders.

“They are the opposite,” Trump said. “These are people that want to destroy our country.”

The lack of self-awareness is amazing.

Agreed! Even though Republicans keep calling for the Execution and Assassination of Political Leaders its the DEMOCRATS who are causing Division!

People say anti trump centrist republicans are a political dead end but it seems at least two of them were willing to make concepts of a plan with a gun.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

They're not dead center, so they're ackshually diehard leftists, didn't you get the memo? The left is trying to kill Trump! Clutch those pearls hard!

"I lied and was wrong but I'm not to blame. It's the person who tells on me who is to blame. If they didn't tell on me, non of this would have happened as people wouldn't have known I lied".

It's a typical sociopathic way of thinking you aren't to blame but instead the person who punishes you / calls you out is. Like, when you robbed a bank, you blame the police for being locked up, not yourself for committing the crime.

Remember: A former president, a current presidential candidate, is unable to take responsibility and accountability for any of his actions. Do you really want someone like that to have control over one of the biggest countries, controlling thousands of nuclear weapons and the mightiest military, while constantly acting in favor of Putin, a dictator and enemy of NATO? Like, the stupidity of this all makes everyone in the movie Idiocracy look smart.

"Oh, it's not THEIR rhetoric..."

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Their "rhetoric" is keeping him from being hit as only his disaffected dipshit disciples are dumb enough to take the potshot to begin with. Anyone else with any skill at all would not have made their mistakes

[–] Wilzax@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Sure Donny. Their rhetoric is of violence and intolerance for their fellow man. Right.

[–] ThanksObama@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago

No sir, people just find you disgusting and plain old don't like you.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

remember when racist and delusional republicans had a wbush poster / meme with "miss me yet?" written on it during the obama administration?

they could do one with the orange turd except this time it can be answered with "yes, twice".

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

I sincerely don't want him to get shot at any time before the election but it doesn't make me feel bad to know that he knows there are people who want to shoot at him, especially republicans who want to shoot at him

[–] cultsuperstar@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

And the lies he and JD are telling about Haitians has no impact on them?

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Come on who would want to do him harm other than them. Not the thousands of people he has scammed. Not the thousands of people he has refused to pay for services rendered. Not the people he has raped. Just the latest focus of concern. /s

"Its all Biden and Harris' fault! If they would stop telling the people what my plans are and what I want to do, none of this would have happened! They are making me a target by telling the world what I am and how I want to bring about the Fourth Reich in honor of my great Hero, Hitler!"

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

I saw a picture of the sniper and thought: That's Roger Wilco!

[–] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

To be fair to him the speech made sense when he was practicing it because he was looking in a mirror.

#OperationConserve

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I wonder what's causing him to be delusional.

[–] Trashcan@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Someone should mention jan 6 to him....

[–] Marleyinoc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

His looney ass maggot followers believe this shit. Many are so delusional it's rattling. I think it comes from lots of practice believing things that aren't real. The Great Satan is religion.

[–] goddard@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

If you look at his press release he also quotes their words in like over 100 instances.
