People can’t stop cracking up over the former president’s bizarre, bumbling speech.
Speaking outside Allentown, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, Donald Trump left everyone confused when he attempted to explain the Battle of Gettysburg, praised (and invented a quote from) Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and generally had no idea what he was talking about.
When his off-the-cuff remarks hit late-night television on Monday, the hosts couldn’t hide their laughter.
“You have to hand it to this guy: On the weekend before his unprecedented criminal trial begins, he somehow manages to overshadow it with this broken-brained interpretation of what happened at Gettysburg during the Civil War,” Jimmy Kimmel quipped.
I don’t know why you’re getting downvotes, it’s true. The DNC and RNC railroad unfit picks to the ballot every damn time based on criteria that are NOT GOOD FOR YOU, ONLY THEM. All y’all who don’t see this are blind.
I agree with CaptainSpaceman. Choose CHOICE!
Oh, he’s getting downvotes for being a bothsider.
The dems have changed profoundly between Obama and Biden. Doesn’t even take any kind of deep political knowledge to see that. No, they haven’t become a revolutionary socialist party, but sorry, democracy doesn’t mean getting exactly what you want all the time. The party is vastly different. Maybe not as different as the Republicans from Bush to Trump, where they abandoned all pretense of Liberalism and switched to being a fascist cult of personality, but different nevertheless.
The bothsiders like you and he pretend political parties never change and aren’t influenced by their voter at all, contrary to evidence that anyone who had even PRETENDED to follow news and politics during their life would have seen. Then use that complete nonsense premise to justify the argument that it doesn’t matter who you vote for, it’s all the same, you shouldn’t bother.
It’s just a brain-dead political take. One that actively and constantly suppresses political turnout, hands elections to the far right, and prevents the exact progress you claim you want.
You’re interpreting my take as brain dead when you haven’t read it. These parties do have better candidates and they never make it to the ballot. The DNC and RNC are directly to blame.
You jumped into this comment tree defending someone claiming elections are meaningless team sports.
What have you done the last 3.5 years to bring about more choices? Because I sure see a lot of people like you come the general every four years. Then y’all quietly slink off and completely disengage from politics the rest of the time and wonder why the two parties keep putting up people you don’t like.
Third parties are super guilty of this, and as much as I am loathe to admit it, the libertarian party is the only exception. They actually go for local and state offices, and they have had some success. Because they actually put in the work.
That’s some pretty bold assumptions there, chief. I went libertarian too, for a while, until I woke up to the enshittification ten years ago and realized that corporations are just using that party to co-opt more governmental power.
There are plenty of palatable candidates from these parties. We’re just never allowed to vote for them because of the current system.
There are primaries, you can write in who you want for an election, and there are a ton of elections that affect you more directly than the presidency.
Who stopped you from voting for who you wanted? That’s a crime.
And let me be clear: I have no love for the libertarian party. It’s over 70% male and over 90% white, which speaks volumes. They’re Republicans who want to simplify everything to nothing and ignore reality. But they do actually try to win elections unlike any other third party, so they get a tiny bit of my respect specifically there.
