Trump becomes the first orange man to support a united Ireland

Richard Chambers@newschambers.bsky.social · 7h ago

Breaking: Donald Trump says “I’d love to see Ireland unified…. I think it would be a great thing. How could it be bad?” Oh my word.

A Presidential visit to Eire should be a PR success but Trump somehow manages to sow discord wherever he goes. “Sources claimed morale on the ground was low, as many gardai from around the country had to find childcare and cancel plans at the last minute to cover Trump’s visit.” #r4today #Doonbeg

Gardai policing Trump visit feel it's 'a sh*t show' amid 'last minute' plans

Sources said gardai heading for Doonbeg and surrounding areas are being provided with accommodation in Galway city centre - with them describing the over 130km journey as 'ridiculous.'

I used to train law enforcement officers to spot violence before it starts. The reliable tell was never posture or hands. It was grievance… …the instant a man casts himself as the victim. He's not attacking anymore. He's “defending.” That's when it goes bad. Now…look at our president.

The spirit of our dear departed Janey Godley is in Doonbeg, Co Clare, Ireland today.

A man with money and influence doing good. Very rare these days!!! Be a Christian Bale, not an Elon Musk! #EloNaziMusKKK

I absolutely LOVE this. Christian Bale spent roughly 17 years fighting to make this happen. This week, his foster-care village opened in Palmdale, California: 12 homes built specifically to help keep siblings together when they enter foster care.

Paul Simon pays tribute to the victims of 9/11 by performing “The Sound of Silence.”

The Obamas Lead As Trump Blows Off New York On 9/11 To Go To A Golf Tournament

Donald Trump will be doing the bare minimum in Washington, DC, before going to his private club in Ireland, as former President and First Lady Obama step up to lead on 9/11.

Hitler did the same things. I think Trump believes he can do it too. Most people have no idea of all the weird racist fascist things that Hitler did way BEFORE he murdered millions. YEARS BEFORE. The same things that Trump is doing now.

The difference between Jim Jones and Trump is Trump would charge for the Koolaid.

"If Trump is taking America down, if he is going to bury this country, all the good in it and all its prosperity and potential, then he wants his most adoring and loyal retainers with him. He wants his cult locked inside." Good from @aselrod.bsky.social on MAGA as death cult:

I wrote about Trump’s Wednesday night speech in Dallas. My main takeaway: this is a man who doesn’t want his followers or the country to outlive him. www.liberalcurrents.com/donald-trump...

Well this is the one of the (many) weird things with him, he's as dishonest as the day is long but at the same time he just can't control himself, like a child, and he blurts out what he really means. However no one learned anything from Jan 6th, he'll get away with it.

Trump told his followers to “cheat like hell.” Well, what are we going to do? We will vote early and tell friends to do the same. And maybe sign up to be poll workers, poll monitors or plan other ways to protect the election. WE can do this!!!

After President Donald Trump told attendees at the Republican midterm convention Thursday night that "we want honesty in our elections," he led them in a pledge to "cheat like hell" and "go out and vote" in the midterm elections. https://to.pbs.org/4yTjfzl

Read it slow: he told a crowd he doesn't care if they're registered, just go cheat like the other side does. That's not a gaffe, it's an instruction, on camera, with his own name attached. Every Republican in that arena who cheered instead of walking out owns this too. Fuck you.

Trump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."

Turns out, it wasn't COVID that destroyed the economy during Trump's first administration. It was Trump. This feels like deja vu all over again. Hopefully Americans come to their senses and get rid of the Republican clowns in charge.

I'm sorry, we weren't united after 9/11. We were afraid, then demagogues and warmongers have manipulated that fear into wars against innocent people for 25 years.

So it begins. USPS is rejecting FL ballots because the spacing between lines on the envelope is off by 0.014 inches. They’ll always be able to find a reason to discard ballots from Latino or Black-sounding names. A “T” wasn’t crossed, an “i” wasn’t dotted. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

In ominous sign, USPS initially rejected Florida county’s mail ballot over spacing issue

So far today: 1. Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 ceremony. 2. Hegseth used 9/11 to justify the war in Iran. 3. Jake Lang and literal Nazis are marching through the streets of NY. 5. The stupidest people on the planet are on social media thinking they're getting $5,000 to vote for Republicans.

25 years ago, on a clear September morning, an otherwise ordinary day became one of history’s darkest. Through the darkness, we also saw the best of humanity.

I don't know ANYONE on the Right who fact checks.

9/11 victim Michael Massaroli’s son: "You do my dad's legacy & the legacy of all victims no honor using this tragedy to spread hate. I've had to spend 25 years seeing people use it to hate on our Muslim brothers & sisters, people who don't look like them."

Americans are betraying the entire world by letting Trump and his criminal gang loot and kill.

Omg. Sunflowers you fucking idiots!

What 9/11 showed is that Osama bin Laden understood the US would tilt into madness after an attack. And we did everything possible to prove him right. We dishonored the dead, made our country crueler, and started wars that killed up to a million people. That should also be what we remember.

Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that he’s the worst president in US history, he’s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.

Burns.
