Trump Derangement Syndrome - Orange man bad. Read the OP! (ᴛʜɪs ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴅ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴋɪᴡɪ ғᴀʀᴍs ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡs ɴᴏᴡ) 🗿🗿🗿🗿

That "wrong Trump" hashtag on Twitter was pretty fucking gross. No doubt these were the same ones asking for "civility" when Biden's son died.

I've seen justification for it because of Covid deaths but Trump has little control over the deaths. I'd argue State and Local officials have more responsibility over it as they affect our day-to-day lives more.

If we wanna play that game tho, then Obama was personally responsible for everyone killed when he was staring wars in the Middle East, allowing ISIS to fester, and droning hospitals.

The "but Obama" excuse is dumb and often used purely as deflection from Trump's faults, but for 8 years you weren't allowed to speak out about Obama or you're an unpatriotic racist. The Tea Party was pushed as a terrorist organization, despite never killing anyone, just flexing their rights to disagree with the president. Now, you're allowed to openly wish death on the president and you become part of the "underground resistance" that's co-signed by most celebrities and the media.

When Biden is elected, do you think this will continue? Or is "civility" suddenly going to be the flavor of the month?

I have a loved one who will talk about how great the Obama years were overall, but will examine everything bad that happens under Trump, especially things outside his control, as something worthy of impeachment.

It's the hypocrisy I hate the most. Portland, Seattle, and Chicago have been hotbeds for violence these past few months but you won't see anything about it, no Twitter hashtags about the lives destroyed unless it's a cop doing it. The Proud Boys were involved in a protest yesterday and suddenly it's "The Far Right is on the rise!", meanwhile people associated with Antifa openly use Twitter to coordinate.

I think Trump has been a really ineffective and shit leader, but if that group of people is the alternative, gimme 4 more years of Trump.
 
A few years ago, I would have considered myself liberal/left, but the behaviour of these people has driven me further right. Saying "death took the wrong Trump" is really fucked up to me. I'm not a Joe Biden fan, but I don't wish death upon him; that's way too extreme for me to side with. And for all their talk of how Trump is a sociopath, they seem to completely lack the self-awareness that constantly wishing death upon somebody is pretty sociopathic, itself
 
I don't know if this was posted earlier, but this guy apparently has the goods on how the Bible prophesied Donald Trump as the antichrist. Of course the big disagreement in the comments is that he's actually the beast.
I didn't buy into this bible banging bullshit when it came from the right, why the fuck should I believe it now when it's coming from the left?

The left literally thinks you're retarded and that if they spew this stuff out they might trick you into joining the left, or at least abandoning Trump.

I don't think I could have put it better myself.
 
'Amusing' fact, Robert Trump was one of the heads of Zenimax's board of directors.

Less amusing stuff, honestly I could see Trump not being terribly broken right now. The man had his anuerysm a fair while ago and was on the downward trend for quite some time. The writing was on the wall, and that gives someone a lot of time to grieve for the person before they have passed. And thats without considering the fact the Presidency doesn't give you time to grieve.

And people keep harping on the golf thing, or the movie thing, but that's just how some people are and beliefs like that tend to run in families. From the sound of things, Robert wouldn't have known anyone was there with him anyway, all sitting with him until he died would have done is be emotionally exhausting on any family who did so to no actual point to helping or comforting him. It's essentially demanding a performative action from his family to make everyone else feel better. "How dare you not sit with the comatose, completely unaware dying man! That offends me!"

Humans have a bad habit of making other people's deaths about ourselves, even if, or sometimes especially if, we have no connection to that person. But we have expectations for how their family is supposed to behave in those situations, and any deviation from those expectations is cause for scorn and ridicule, as if it were any of our fucking business.

His brother was dying, there was nothing he could do for him, and he wanted to take his mind off of it rather than make himself suffer for other peoples' expectations, fuck you if you have a problem with it.

If Biden is elected any attempts to pay lip service to 'reason' and 'civility' will be instantly abandoned to go on the attack, to demonize and vilify their opponents as they have always done. The left (and every group really) will always plead to 'take the higher path' and 'be adults' when they are on the back foot then immediately drop it once the tides have turned.

If Trump is re-elected they will scream bloody murder and continue their 'resistance' while also trying to hide behind attempts to appear the bigger man. If the vice is ever tightened around them out will come the cries for being the better man, being civil, etc.
 
Them blaming Trump for everything indirectly wrong is like blaming the Devil on the shoulder.

Doctor: Well sir, you got COVID.

Wokey: WHAT?! OMG THIS IS ALL TRUMP'S FAULT! HE MADE ME ME DO IT! HE MADE ME GO OUT THERE TO PROTEST AND BREAK SHIT AND THEN I GOT IT! I'M SOOOO TWEETING ABOUT THIS!

Doctor: Everything alright there, sir?

Wokey: IT'S MA'AM! YES, I'M FINE!

Kinda like how being politically incorrect was cool and rebellious and intelligent back in the nineties, but the second they realized they'd seized sociopolitical dominance then political correctness was a concept invented by the right and political incorrectness was literally just bigotry.
 
If Trump had been at his brother’s bedside, the left would be talking about how he can’t put the country before his family, he’s so selfish, he probably spread COVID to the patients, let’s hope he caught some disease in the hospital, and here’s 50 articles about how Robert Trump was also extremely evil.

With the security detail that Trump requires, it would have been very difficult to go to the hospital anyway (especially since very few visitors are allowed in hospitals right now). For all we know, Trump probably wanted to be by his brother’s side before he died, but couldn’t due to the virus. It’s a bad situation all around, but golfing was probably the better option in this case because it would have less chance of spreading/catching the virus. People who didn’t align with Elizabeth Warren still felt bad when her brother died of the virus, I wish those people would extend the same to Trump. You don’t have to like him, but on a human level, losing family members is hard and it’s especially hard right now when regular funeral services aren’t able to be held (which makes closure even harder to obtain for some people).
