Hilliary vs. Trump: The 2016 US Presidental Election

Yesterday, they were denying any involvement in his assassination. Today, apparently, they're preparing to admit that they did it but that it wasn't intended. They'll try to make the world believe that it was a botched interrogation.

 

That still doesn't make them look that good, does it?

 

Next up on the list of stupid excuses: "We never meant to torture him to death, all we did was ask our unpaid intern to make our beloved guest a cup of tea but unfortunately something got lost in translation".

 

No, no it doesn't. You abduct a man, you interogate him, you torture him, he dies... intended or not, that's still a murder. What about the dismenbering? Why don't they give up the body? Oh right, because the forensic would destroy their lies.

 

The guy wasn't even any sort of threat to them. MBS seems to be losing the plot, or else someone though this was the way to impress him.

 

During the summer, the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs tweeted this:

"Canada is gravely concerned about additional arrests of civil society and women’s rights activists in #SaudiArabia, including Samar Badawi.
We urge the Saudi authorities to immediately release them and all other peaceful #humanrights activists. "

The Saudi lost their **** and pulled out thousands of their students from Canada. One single insignificant tweet.
Now, imagine how mad they were at Khashoggi for criticizing the regime for decades.

 

The quote I was thinking of was genuine, but it was from a campaign rally in 2015, where he said -

 

Here's what Marco Rubio think about the whole thing. Sounds more Presidential than anything Trump said during the past 18 months.

 

Indeed he would have made a good president, perhaps he will one day but it depends what is left of the GOP once Trump finishes. His concession speech in 2016 was impressive, sad that he had to make it.

 

Here's Trump's quote of the day:

“Here we go again with, you know, you’re guilty until proven innocent. I don’t like that. We just went through that with Justice Kavanaugh and he was innocent all the way as far as I’m concerned.”

Each time you think Trump couldn't possibly sink lower, he comes up with something that leaves you speechless.

 

A Story in Three Parts:

 

It doesn't look good for the Saudi, Trump had a meeting with Pompeo and decided that Treasury Secretary Mnuchin wouldn't go to Riyadh for that big investor conference. I mean, for Trump to make this decision, it must look so bad that even his lying/disinformation skills won't be able to reverse the tide.

The Trump admin's doing its fair share of things to **** up the world, but this is just downright mean, evil.
I can't even fathom what it must be like as a trans person in the US right now. I know some people who are genuinely considering emigrating.



Fun little reminder:

(Another reminder that these scumbags don't give half a **** about LGBT+ and minorities other than occasionally using them as a cover or PR move.)

 

That one time you wish it was really just fake news...

 

"I will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens from the violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology" - quote from Trump's nomination speech in 2016.

At the time, it won him votes. Now, he knows that those votes are gone, so he'll throw the LGBTQ under the bus to please his base. That's how he works.

 

Yes, trans in America scared to death reporting.

 

At the time, it was a stick he could beat Muslims with. He never gave a **** about LGBT-etc people. *cough*Pence*cough*.

He said nothing about protecting LGBTQ-ers from the violence and oppression of a hateful domestic ideology. They're his voter base/supporters.​

 

George Soros, the guy often portrayed as the evil mastermind behind anything US reactionaries don't like, got a confirmed bomb in his mail two days ago:

Both Obama and the Clintons received an "explosive device" in the mail today:

CNN was evacuated just now due to a bomb threat:


I'm sure this was all done by "some very fine people, on both sides".

 

San Diego Union-Tribune too

and before anyone says 'someone could get hurt'... we're well past that.

 

...And another package addressed to Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Democrat congresswoman.
