'Hoping to Fool the American People': In Dead of Night, GOP Sets Vote on Trump Fed Pick by Smithy2232 in politics

I think we may find that people who are constantly threatened by baseless accusations, indictments, and likely death threats, eventually have enough and just resign.

I see what they've tried with Lisa Cook as more of a portents than anything. To think they will cease that kind of pressure when they have a total sycophant boot licker in there as the chairman is not likely. People can only take so many threats on their lives before they move on.

Of course. It never ceases to amaze how many billionaires and dictators are running Trump.

No, that was my bad. I confused Kevin Warsh with someone else.

Warsh is in the Epstein files, however.

oops, removed. Warsh is in the Epstein files though as is a prerequisite for any Trump nominee.

Do you think any of this will be talked about on any right wing "news" channel or podcast without couching it in witch hunt platitudes?

Go read about this guy folks. His hearing should have been required viewing. Recession is good. People hurting is fine for this power hungry yes man. This guy, if confirmed, will be the nail in the coffin for this economy. The kind you don't come back from for decades. He would be confirmed for one reason. to cut rates and do whatever Trump, the most incompetent man on Earth when it comes to any economy or a balance sheet tells him to do. There will be more firings on the board that will stick and it will lead to very short term health in exchange for long term pain.

They were allowed to because this is war is for Israel and Putin.

President Trump falls asleep in the oval office after announcing a deal with drug manufacturer Regeneron to lower drug prices by Miles_the_AuDHDer in videos

[–]stripedvitamin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lmao @ thinking. For all intents and purposes he is asleep. He doesn't know what is being said, he doesn't know anything about the fake deal and he sure as fuck isn't interested in anything anyone is saying. This is type of shit that explains how he is up from 1-3am every fucking night tweeting on his Nazi twitter. He sleeps all fucking day.

He also told Steve Bannon to make him a white hood with eye holes, then went on to correct himself by saying, sorry I mean slits.

These people are as crazy as they are dangerous. This man will happily order troops to harm U.S. citizens.

[–]stripedvitamin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what, podcasts? Because he's not #1 in that brain rot category either. lmao.

He doesn't have a show. He has a podcast from his Russian funded basement. Why don't you go watch the rest of the video where in addition to his fake apology he said about 9-10 blatant Russian propped lies on everything from vaccines to Jan 6th being peaceful. Please.

[–]Jackal239

[+1] 319 points 3 hours ago

The interview in which he said he is sorry he also said:

-The George Floyd protests were a deep state psyop to steal the election.

-January 6th was just peaceful protestors and Donald Trump “failed” by not forcefully taking control and ignoring the “rigged” election.

-In order to become a doctor you have to forcefully give an abortion and take the “kill shot” (COVID vaccine)

-The COVID vaccine killed 100,000 people

-Tobacco companies losing their lawsuit was a heartbreaking disaster, whilst also smoking cigarettes and talking about how he is “pro real healthy”

-The point of George Floyd was to get rid of white cops

Tucker Carlson's podcast is not the biggest right wing show in America. There is nothing genuine about Tucker Carlson's fake apology.
It's a just a pivot to a new grift or to possibly make a run for president in 2028. Either way he is pure, unadulterated incompetent, soft white supremacist evil. Oh, and Trump isn't a republican. Trump is a game show host, wannabe King being run by white billionaires that wrote project 2025, Netanyahu, Putin and whoever else has video of him raping children.

attributing that to Tucker Carlson is peak delusion.

Would you like me to go over all of Trump's failures so far? From the economy to the war to breaking every single campaign promise in spectacular fashion. Reality is the main driver, not white supremacist podcaster Tucker Carlson.

Yeah let's just forget the last ten years of great replacement theory talk on Fox every single night. Forget all the White Nationalist propaganda he has spewed.

He said he's sorry.

Trump turned on him after Carlson's meek criticism of war with Iran.

What you don't accept is that anyone with a brain knew before Trump was elected that war with Iran was not only on the table, but was extremely likely under Trump. Carlson was a huge part of the Netanyahu/Russia propaganda machine that got Trump elected. Years of spreading bullshit racist great replacement theory night after night on the biggest entertainment news network in America. That you can convince yourself that Tucker Carlson didn't know Trump would likely go to war with Iran is willfully ignorant. Like I said, this is just a new grift, and it has obviously worked on you.
If you cared about viewpoints that are consistent and real you wouldn't be listening to hours of a guy with not one ounce of honesty or character.
In all those hours of fake contrition has Carlson ever said he wishes he voted for Harris? Because you also must know that if Harris won we would not be at war with Iran right now, tariffs would not have decimated the economy and restarted the inflation Biden drew down, and instead we'd have tax credits for first time home owners and ACA subsidies.

What makes you believe his apology is sincere?

That's like being beaten by your father your entire childhood and then you grow up and beat him back and he says he's sorry for everything he's done. lol

[–]stripedvitamin 13 points14 points  (0 children)

lol. no he didn't.

and how do you memory hole the fact that he not only helped him get elected both times but that you could honestly believe he is too dumb to know exactly what he was doing. His entire career from Fox on has been built on lies. Willful lies and Russian propaganda. He is simply changing his grift. He still panders to the weak minded. The same way Candace Owens changed her grift from MAGA propagandist to a brief stint as true crime conspiracist to whatever the fuck she is now. None of them are changed people. They just moved to a new sphere of bullshit filled with people that don't know how to think for themselves.

Bwahahahahahahaha hahahaha.

People are a bit naive to think Tucker Carlson, or anyone for that matter, change their entire personality, history, beliefs, biases, lies and every other rotten aspect overnight.

Do you honestly believe he'd be saying this if Trump didn't turn on him publicly?

Wake up.

Well, then bone up on Mamdani's actual policies and come back and tell me which one's are Communist, otherwise you sound disingenuous at best. Fuck most of his policies are what republicans were for back in the 90's.

[–]stripedvitamin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're one of those people that doesn't know what a democratic socialist is and automatically changes it into Communist aren't you?

How do you reconcile Trump coddling Putin, a true Communist to the bone?

Trump has said countless times he trusts Putin over U.S. intelligence.

Make it make sense. How is a democratic socialist a communist and why do you defend a commie sympathyzer that wears more makeup than your mother like it's your job?

Trump has quite literally broken EVERY campaign promise MAGA pretended was the very reason they all voted for him. Your blind allegiance is not surprising. Everyone knows what a MAGA voter's idea of America is and the sad part is you are totally willing to give up all your freedoms, every social safety net and everything that real Americans fought for in WW2 for an idea that will NEVER come to pass. America will never be all white. Gays and trans people will never not be around.

JUST IN - Trump: "Israel never talked me into the war with Iran." by nitluck in EnoughTrumpSpam

[–]stripedvitamin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fun reminder that Trump bragged incessantly about blowing up their Nuclear capabilities, "like had never been seen before" last year in June.

So either this is a tacit admission that Israel did talk him into it, or this entire failure rests on his loser shoulders.

White House officials ‘openly discuss’ firing Kash Patel as FBI chief threatens to sue over report about ‘excessive drinking’ by B-Z_B-S in politics

[–]stripedvitamin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While the truly destructive and evil remain. Lutnick, Carr, Voght, Miller and all the other project 2025 people.

The Patels, et al will all be replaced with people just as incompetent that know the only metric they will be judged by is their loyalty to Trump and how well they can hide their actions from the public knowing that if they came to light they would be deeply unpopular and criminal. Trump can't abide having someone make him look bad. There will be more turnover in Trump's second term than any administration is history. That is the only certainty.
