Trump Tells Parents Of School Shooting Victims: Guns Are Necessary In The US ‘For Entertainment’

Failed one-term former president Donald Trump has a message for the parents of children killed in school shootings: Be thankful you live in a country with lots of guns because they’re necessary to keep us entertained.

Trump said that in response to a question he received during a Univision town hall meeting this week when he was asked by a voter, “Could you explain your gun control policy to the parents of the victims of school shootings?”

The disgraced ex-president replied, “We have a Second Amendment and right to bear arms, essentially. And I’m very strongly an advocate of that — I think you need that. I think that if you ever tried to get rid of it, you wouldn’t be able to do it. You wouldn’t be able to take away the guns, because people need that for security. They need it for entertainment, and for sport and other things — but they also, in many cases, need it for protection.”

He continued, “You want to have a lot of good people have [guns]. But if we didn’t have that, you would see a crime rate that’s crazy.”

Did you notice that Trump never once mentioned school shootings, which were the main gist of the question? Instead, he attacked his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris with blatant lies.

“She wants to take everybody’s gun away, you know she’s always wanted that,” Trump claimed. “That’s because, uh, that’s what she wants. She wants to take everybody’s gun. You know who will never give their guns up? The bad guy. The bad guy’s not giving up the guns. So that’s what we have. We want safety, we want security, but you have to still adhere to the Second Amendment.”

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) shared video of Trump’s comments on Twitter.

Trump’s laissez-faire attitude about guns didn’t sit well with many on social media.

Fox Audience Laughs When Trump Jokes About Woman Who Died Due To Georgia Abortion Law

A Fox News audience composed of pro-Trump supporters laughed during a Wednesday town hall that was billed as focusing on women’s issues when the disgraced ex-president cracked a tasteless joke about a pregnant Georgia woman who died as the result of being unable to get medical care after taking medication to terminate her pregnancy.

The woman, Amber Thurman, ProPublica reported in September, “suffered from a grave infection that her suburban Atlanta hospital was well-equipped to treat.”

She’d taken abortion pills and encountered a rare complication; she had not expelled all of the fetal tissue from her body. She showed up at Piedmont Henry Hospital in need of a routine procedure to clear it from her uterus, called a dilation and curettage, or D&C.

But just that summer, her state had made performing the procedure a felony, with few exceptions. Any doctor who violated the new Georgia law could be prosecuted and face up to a decade in prison.

Thurman waited in pain in a hospital bed, worried about what would happen to her 6-year-old son, as doctors monitored her infection spreading, her blood pressure sinking and her organs beginning to fail.

The host of the town hall was Harris Faulkner, and she told Trump as the event began, “I want to share with you Senators Warnock and Ossoff, [former] Atlanta Mayor [Keisha] Bottoms, and Amber Thurman’s family have come out on a press call. And they’re doing what’s called a prebuttal to our town hall right now.”

His voice dripping with sarcasm, Trump said, “Oh, that’s nice.”

“Yeah,” Faulkner replied.

“You’ll get better ratings, I promise,” Trump added as Faulkner grinned.

Some in the audience began applauding and laughing. Others yelled, “Woooo!”

Trump’s flippant comment and the reaction from women in the audience set off a torrent of criticism on Twitter.

WTF?! Trump Abruptly Ends Town Hall Q&A And Dances To Music For 39 Minutes!

If you happened to look at your Twitter/X feed this morning, you probably saw that one of the trending topics was “dementia.”

Dementia? Hmm. Who could that possibly apply to? If you guessed failed former president Donald Trump, give yourself a pat on the back and prepare yourself for what comes next.

According to Newsweek, Trump held a town hall meeting in Oaks, Pennsylvania, on Monday evening. It was hosted by South Dakota GOP Gov. Kristi Noem, who also happens to be a confessed dog murderer and overall vile douchebag.

Proceedings were paused while two attendees received medical attention, at which point Trump jokingly asked whether “anybody else would like to faint?” He then said: “Let’s not do any more questions. Let’s just listen to music. Let’s make it into a music. Who the hell wants to hear questions, right?”

Video or it didn’t happen, right? Here ya go:

What in the hell is that?! Can you imagine what Trump would have said if Vice President Kamala Harris had done the same thing? He made fun of President Joe Biden for using a teleprompter during his speeches, even though the Donald relies on one, too.

Of course, to hear the Trump campaign tell it (i.e. spin it), the musical interlude was just a nice change of pace that proves what a great man of the people their candidate is.

Campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung immediately went into damage control mode, posting on Twitter, “Something very special is happening in Pennsylvania right now at the Trump townhall. @realDonaldTrump is unlike any politician in history, and it’s great.”

But very few people were buying what Cheung was selling, and social media exploded with well-deserved mockery for the twice-impeached ex-head of state.

Someone really needs to stage an intervention. Of course, no one will, because they need Donnie so they can continue their grifting.

Trump Suggests Using The Military Against ‘Radical Left’ Voters

Failed and disgraced former president Donald Trump decided today that he’d go ahead and say the quiet part out loud.

During an interview with Maria Bartiromo of Fox News, Trump was asked if he was “expecting chaos on election day.”

The twice-impeached and multiply-indicted ex-head of state replied, “Not from the side that votes for Trump. I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within, not even the people that have come in and destroying our country, by the way, totally destroying our country, the towns, the villages, they’re being inundated.”

“But I don’t think they’re the problem in terms of election day,” he added. “I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics.”

Then came a call for the military to deal with anyone who disagrees with him.

“And I think they’re the big, and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military, because they can’t let that happen.”

In that same interview, Trump also tried to justify raising the price of nearly every good sold in the United States by imposing massive tariffs.

“But what about the criticism, and the Journal has done this as well, that if you do put something like a 200% tariff on a product, that it’s only gonna mean higher prices for consumers?” Bartiromo asked. “It’s gotta be passed on somehow.”

“All I’m doing is saying, I’ll put 200 or 500, I don’t care,” Trump responded. “I’ll put a number where they can’t sell one car into the United [States], I don’t want them to sell their car, because I don’t want them hurting our car companies.”

If Trump does happen to win in November, the United States will soon resemble Germany under Hitler. We can’t let that happen. It’s our sacred duty as Americans to vote against this wannabe tinpot dictator and then demand he be sent to prison for the rest of his life.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Tries To Mock Conspiracy Theorists – And It Doesn’t End Well For Her

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is well-known for saying absurd and controversial things, including bizarre conspiracy theories about Jewish space lasers causing wildfires in California and Democrats generating massive hurricanes to hit states that voted for Donald Trump.

But according to a posting Greene made on Twitter Saturday, it’s everyone else who’s wrapped up in spreading lies and bullshit that have no basis in reality.

The post features a meme that shows a person wearing an enormous tinfoil hat and this message: “Almost everyone in America right now.”

Greene added her own commentary to the meme: “Yep.”

Wow! Talk about an irony alert. You’d need a truckful of them to cover that tweet.

Apparently, Ms. Greene is attempting to make some sort of social commentary regarding the fondness many have for spreading bullshit on the internet. But she’s not exactly the ideal messenger for such a message, and she was reminded of that.
