Former president Donald Trump disseminated on social media on Friday an image of President Biden with his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.
The image can be seen about halfway through a 20-second video that Trump posted on his Truth Social site. The post says it was recorded Thursday on Long Island, where Trump traveled this week to attend a wake for a recently killed police officer.
In the video, two trucks decorated with giant Trump flags and altered American flags are driving on a highway. On the tailgate door of one of the trucks is the image of Biden lying horizontally, bound and gagged.
Trump has a history of sharing and promoting violent images featuring his perceived enemies.
It’s literal genocide. Israel is openly trying to rid Gaza of Palestinians by bombs and starvation. Calling it anything other than genocide is implicit support for the the apartheid state of Israel. October 7th was nothing compared to the suffering of Palestinians. Also why is Trump better than Desantis? Desantis has had some of the most violent policies and actions against trans people in the nation. To me it sounds like your allegiance is based not on ideology but on rhetoric.
Also, from the river to the sea, may Palestine be free.
Israel is currently bombing Gaza to get hostages back.
You’re right and I’m thankful that people are finally seeing how horribly the Palestinians have been treated for generations. The Palestinians and the US should be helping Israel oust Hamas.
I said Destantis was better than Trump. He’s the second worst possible candidate I can imagine.
Oh also I wish you a very
The hostages are dead and Israel killed (many of) them. Even if they weren’t, 35,000 and 2 million displaced in exchange for around a few hundred is absurdly disproportionate. Hamas has offered to return the hostages in exchange for a ceasefire but Israel has refused. It’s not about the hostages, it’s about driving the Palestinians out. The hostages are a cheap propaganda trick for people like you. Secondly, if Israel really wanted to get the hostages back, they wouldn’t treat their hostages as casualties, they wouldn’t carpet bomb Gaza and they wouldn’t kill hostages after they wave white flags. Israel knows the route to get their hostages back, they just don’t care. Even if Israel was truly doing this for the hostages, that would not make anything they are doing any better. All Palestinian violence against aggressors is self defense.
Cool.
Still, I’m voting for Biden over the guy who’s explicitly intent on overthrowing the US government. It’s not a choice I like but it’s the only logical one we have. I will stand beside you in opposition to this war but that does not mean I’m going to vote to obliterate democracy.
You’re not opposing the war lmao, you’re standing by it’s biggest proponent and buying Israeli propaganda like it’s half off. You’re a clown.
I just… it’s hard to wrap my head around the gymnastics you all are doing here.
War is always bad. I don’t support any war at all, even if it’s declared by someone I support.
Because I have some knowledge of what has happened in the region over the past fifty years and more, I would sooner vote for Biden than Trump. Trump is also a zionist and many times more supportive of Netanyahu’s hateful warmongering than Biden or any other US president has ever been. We can be opposed to some of a person’s actions while also celebrating all the good things they’ve done. I have always been opposed to Biden as president because of the things he did as a senator in the 90s. And don’t get me started on his age and the threat of Harris being president. Still, he’s what we’ve got now.
Regardless, I don’t know why people keep changing the subject to this war. This war or the other war have nothing to do with our courts or our freedoms or our education system or our healthcare or our polluted environment. Our own country is literally falling apart, not due to war but because people keep voting on one issue they currently feel strongly about. This is why our congress is so polarized and failing to get anything done. Voting Trump into office is going to be the end of democracy. His own former cabinet members are urging people not to vote for him. Hard core conservative judges are afraid of what he’ going to do. people not to vote for him. The adults in the room are looking at The United States of America and begging its citizens to save the country.
You all need to get your heads out of your asses and take a look at your own front yard. This is an extremely dire election year.
I guess Americans just don’t give a shit about America anymore. And it’s really fucking sad and frustrating.
He said the line!!! He said the line!!!
The adults in the room are praying for the US to collapse and balkanise ASAP. Even if Biden wins, the best case scenario for the world is for the US to die. Even if the Dems win the next 10 consecutive elections in a row, the US deserves to die.
Your country is an experiment based on “Hey what if we don’t want to pay taxes to the British but are ok with building on stolen land with slave labour for the purposes of (some) white guys getting the ability to get extremely rich???”
Its a failed experiment. The best argument against the existence of a just god is that your nation has not been smote out of existence by the hand of the divine.
Tomorrow, if every politician, businessman and government agent that dictates how your country is run got amnesia, and every reference and memory of your laws, your wretched constitution and how your government operates magically erased from existence, I have no doubt in my body that the ensuring nation(s) that spring up in its place will be not only better for the citizens, but better for the whole world.
It would have fewer children gunned down in places where they should be safe, fewer people dying from rationing insulin, fewer people selling their plasma just to not die from exposure, fewer minorities and family pets executed by agents of your government in the street, fewer citizens poisoned by plastic and lead in their water, and fewer people half a planet away murdered by your troops or your bombs.
A better future is possible, but it’s not from festering like maggots the the corpse of your dying empire.
P.s.: Free Palestine.
I don’t disagree that the US is a failed experiment. Because Trump even has a chance to win another election is enough evidence of that.
THAT is what you think evidence is?
definitely, voters caring very strongly about not doing genocide is why this democracy is falling apart.
I don’t give a shit about amerikkka, fuck amerikkka
LMAO, cry about it more loser
Should be a new site tagline
Best presinald EVAR!!
Yep. Those things make me angry.
Not as angry as this asshole makes me https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/100-times-president-trump-supported-israel/
Joe Biden has been supporting Israel for 50 years. You aren’t angry about Joe Biden’s support for Israel. Shut the fuck up
What you’re experiencing isn’t difficulty understanding our gymnastics. We’re not doing any. Genocide is one of the most horrible and evil things humans can do, and Joe Biden is making it happen. Therefore voting for him is tantamount to doing one of the most horrible and evil things humans can do. You’re having difficulty with your own gymnastics, twisting yourself up trying to justify why you’re voting for a holocaust.
You’re seriously lacking context and historical events and rejecting everything we have learned about the other candidate. Remove head from ass, please.
lmao, back to pretending that your shitty opinions are a result of nuance and context.
If you’ve ever wondered what you would have done in Nazi Germany in the 30s, it’s “support Hitler because socialists scared you”.
And here’s why I don’t:
1000+ Black bodies, sent to the morgue by cops in this nation per year since 2012. This nation still lynches just as many Black folk as it did during Reconstruction, they just changed how it’s done. Here’s why I don’t: prison slavery, for the Black folk who get lucky enough to not get murdered in the streets by sociopathic Anglo-Saxon (from here on: settler) ‘police’. Here’s why I don’t: concentration camps at our southern border, for the refugees of Global Southern countries that we ruined in the first place by pumping them flush with guns and terrorists to depose leaders our sociopathic leaders ‘don’t like’. Here’s why I don’t: Tacit Amerikan support of genocide; in Donetsk, in Luhansk, in Libya, in Syria, in Afghanistan, in Palestine. Here’s why I don’t: You cosign all of it; you and all your other Democrat stoolies. You’d cosign it in Leningrad, Beijing, Havana, and Pyongyang too; if only you could reach.
Hell, you’d cosign it in Atlanta, in Chicago, in Minneapolis, and in Compton; and I KNOW YOU WOULD from the way liberals talk about the RICO-charged Cop City protestors.
Why the fuck would I want to save the country that enslaved my ancestors, imprisons my relatives where it doesn’t kill them, and sits there and leers in my face with intent to gaslight me into believing they’re not the enemy? Death to the settler; death to his empire.
Know what’s really fucking sad and frustrating? Americans like you who care more about some nebulous concept of “America” that has never existed than Palestinian lives who are being brutally killed every single day using American weapons and with American support. That’s pretty disgusting
You’re a lib. You believe in nothing but your own comfort
LOL. That’s by far the stupidest thing I’ve read in this thread; and possibly this whole year.
Considering you posted this
I’ll take that as a compliment
lmao if you can excuse genocide you definitely don’t give a shit about “democracy”…which this country doesn’t even have in the first place
oh God you are a being of pure racist imperialism
