Does anyone know if these chuds typically tell each other to donate once to a seemingly counter political cause, through a public record digital trail, so that it adds deniability and confusion if/when they go forward with the suicide mission?

Like these folks need the excuse, but I can see that easily being a tactic.

With Donald Trump dead, the replacement candidate would win without effort. The same is true if someone targeted Biden.

They're both so bad that their deaths would boost their own parties.

Honestly, I completely disagree.

If Biden came out, Kamala would likely be in. No one really likes Kamala, she's just a resounding meh. And plenty of people are just plain racist.

If Trump came out, I'm not sure who would replace him, but nobody would have such a death grip on his base like he does. Many of them probably wouldn't even vote.

Came out of the race

Not only that, more than most of Bidens campaign message is just warnings about Trump. If Trumps not the candidate Biden will have wasted billions and a lot of time on political messaging that doesn't matter anymore.

That's not really true. Mostly it's him struggling to describe all the ways that he's been one of the better progressive presidents despite having a completely non functional congress and outright hostile court. The only message that sticks is how awful Trump is because it's easy to say and understand, and is obviously true to some and obviously false to others.

Well that and he has been hostile to progressive platforms is whole time in office. So no wonder he’s not bringing attention to how progressive he has been.

Lots of Nazis tried to kill Hitler.

And what did Hitler do? Blame the Jews.

Posted this elsewhere but will join into the discussion under this meme as well:

So, this is 100% speculative rambling at this point, but as a gut feeling on my part that can be proven wrong: I get the feeling it might have been someone from a Republican family, possibly shitty family psychology-wise, registered as Republican for his families sake but got f'd up by the pressure within his personal relationships and the state of the world, who radicalised himself on the internet.

I'll offer "hard core maga family, and a close loved one died from COVID-19​ and he blames Trump"

[–] [email protected] 120 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh, he was a registered Republican? Mentally ill lone wolf is back on the menu, boys!

It doesn’t seem like it ever left the menu. This menu sucks ass.
