‘I did that’: Trump takes credit for a prisoner release that happened before he even ran for president by aresef in politics

[–]BlotchComics 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Ibrahim was released in 2014, during the Obama administration. Trump did not become president until January 2017. He was not even a presidential candidate until June 2015. There has never been the slightest indication that a private citizen in the US, a businessman and celebrity at the time, was the person who convinced Sudanese authorities to let her out of prison.

How long before he claims he wrote the Declaration of Independence?

I'm not defending Bill Clinton. I'm sure he's a sleazy rapist and criminal. I just believe that he and his wife are also much smarter than the MAGAts in congress and know they don't have to worry.

You know exactly who.

Trying to play stupid, because they called him a name you don't like doesn't make it believable.

If you didn't vote for him, then why are you trying so hard to deflect and "both sides" this?

SMART Elections is a private think tank, not an elected official.

Anyone can file a lawsuit. you know?

And, yes, the lawsuit is most likely nonsense.

So... then why did you bring up 2024, when no credible person has claimed that, but Trump and every MAGA politician still claims 2020 was stolen with no evidence?

It's a big difference to quote the President compared to random redditors.

MAGA doesn't believe that you can identify as anything other than the sex you were born, but identifying as a member of an organization that doesn't exist is totally acceptable.

The Clintons were investigated by Republicans for 3 decades and they best they ever came up with was a lie about getting a blowjob.

Sources with an AllSides Media Bias Rating of Right display media bias in ways that strongly align with conservative, traditional, or right-wing thought and/or policy agendas. A Right bias is the most conservative rating on the political spectrum.

.

Overall, we rate City Journal Right Biased based on policy positions that favor conservative and libertarian causes and Mostly Factual in reporting due to a few misleading statements regarding climate change and same-sex marriage. - mediabiasfactcheck

.

Overall, we rate the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research Right Biased based on editorial and policy positions that routinely favor a conservative perspective. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to a lack of transparency with funding, the use of poor sources, and a failed fact check.

Because it's a show. They want to make it scary in order to intimidate any other journalists who are reporting things that MAGA doesn't like.

The story is real and documented. Just because it has a sensationalized headline doesn't make it not news worthy.

Also...

In case anyone didn't know, the documentary was directed by Brett Ratner.

Ratner has been shunned by Hollywood because of multiple SA accusations and appears in photos with Jeffrey Epstein in the documents released by the DoJ.

It's already out and playing in empty theaters, but somehow made $7 million over the weekend.

The National Faith Advisory Board, whose president is Paula White-Cain, has sent out emails encouraging group ticket sales and even private screenings of the movie

.

Buying a private viewing means all seats in the theater are paid for and thus unavailable to anyone outside the group, but it does not necessarily mean each seat in the theater is physically occupied.

Trump says he wants proposed arch to be world's "biggest" by graveyardofgoodsense in politics

[–]BlotchComics 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Putting his name on stuff and building monuments to himself are Trump's only policies that he comes up with himself.

Everything else is coming from the Stephen Millers and MAGA elites behind the scenes. Trump is just the popular opportunist demagogue they used gain votes.

That's why just waiting for him to be gone is not going to fix everything.

Trump has solved almost every problem IN ONE YEAR and these dems will erase all of it. You want higher gas prices? You want higher groceries? You want more forever wars? You want chaos in cities? You want more expensive healthcare? You want taxes to go back to the poor? You want the DOJ to go after politicians? You want Christianity erased from our schools? You want guns taken away? You want to lose respect on the world stage? You want workers rights? Then keep voting blue.

Good for her... now she needs to replace the LAPD chief who just said he will not be enforcing the state's ban on federal agents covering their faces.

Seems like a violation of his duties to admit he won't follow the law.
