Sounds like it’s time for somebody to make /c/TrumpVsTrump ?

    Whatever happened to the idea of not publishing the names of mass shooters, as a way of denying them the fame/ attention that they want? Seems like that was a good idea. Did I miss something?

      Drama sells better. It’s just that simple. Plus, someone else is probably gonna publish the name(s), so try to get that info out first to beat other outlets.

    Of course, it’s not like they are scrambling to actually try and stop the shootings…

    The Harris campaign knows how to clapback real hard, that’s for sure. The Trump campaign’s words, even with all the relevant context included, speak for themselves.

    George Bush the first called Dan “potatoe” Quayle the Jose Canseco of politics.

    JD is making him look like it in comparison.

      I am trying to find this, because I’d love to see the context, but I can’t seem to get it. Weirdly, I could have been certain I clicked on a story talking about it, but I went back because of an uncloseable cookie banner and duck duck go changed the results.

      well, i suppose that’s a decent thing to do.

      i mean, it saves somebody I probably don’t hate from having to change his diapers. like the generic staffers around him.
