You could tell from Trump's body language the moment Harris insulted his crowd sizes he was gonna lose it. Best laugh I've had in a while about this campaign.
Well, people on TV said it!
It’s not just a false claim. It’s an old racist trope against Haitians. It was a slur used on national TV.
Racist people have been repeating this story long before trump ever took office. My father, decades ago, was always telling me this is why the family dogs would dissapear. Apparently, once a year, some gang (of non haitians) would come to our rural area, and steal the neighborhood pets.
Of course, our dogs would get hit by cars or shot, but it would happen to coincide with less barking of neighboring dogs (nah, it wasnt cause our wandering dog wasnt bothering them anymore /s) or another neighbor complaining their dog was missing, too.
I always thought it was the most ridiculous thing I ever heard, much less how the logistics worked out, but the story has been around for a very long time, even if some of the details have changed. These jerks have just co-opted another racist troupe to try to pander to their base.
ZOMG BLACK PPL ARE GOING TO EAT UR CAT!!!1!1!
As Sun Tzu put it, never interrupt your enemy while he’s making a mistake.
I so hope you’re right, but so far whatever twisted version of reality we’re in has them eating out of his hand
“Given sufficient force, pigs can fly just fine”
We’ll soon see what it looks like when billions of dollars of force are applied to propelling a thoroughly unaerodynamic pig into the air.
I believe that's how Starbucks invented their Pink Drink
Ehhh, people don't take kindly to assertions regarding animals/pets. It's not the same, but look how quickly everyone, including Republicans, turned on Kristi Noem after she doubled down on shooting her own dog.
Yeah, he'll rile up some of his base in Ohio and they'll start taking precautions to protect their animals, but the majority of pet owners aren't going to buy this, and they'll hopefully condemn him for not only the outright lies, but the xenophobia/racism embroiled with it.
Her disbelief at him as he said that is my favorite part of the debate, hands down.
I called it a while ago.
Nothing gets under Trump's skin more than being laughed at by a woman.
He wants to be this big scary bully, and laughing at someone like that is the worse you can do to them. I haven't watched the whole thing yet. But from Daily Show Kamala just alternated between that and looks of disbelief
I noticed after the initial laugh Harris had to temper her smile a bit to evoke serious disappointment in Trump's unhingedness and not look like she is agreeing. I bet Harris was absolutely ecstatic in that moment seeing how effectively he took the bait she laid for him.
Homeboy has lost the plot, it’s well past time for bed, grandpa
Don't you think [he] looks tired...?
Six words! Six six six!
If only it was that easy...
He looks unwell
I heard the illegals are Hannibal Lecter now. And some are sharks with batteries.
Hey, this is serious! Those robo-sharks voted for Biden!
Just as long as the sharks don’t get frick’n lasers on their heads.
Right now they're just ill-tempered
Batteries recharged with cancer-giving windmills!!
Look at all that wasted desert soil on those solar farms!
WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOODNIGHT!
Illegal cannibal Blahajs powered by cancer windmill batteries are the new trans agenda /s
At first I was annoyed that the moderators kept letting him speak out of turn.
Then, when he was just putting foot in mouth again and again, I couldn't wait for him to talk again.
Never prevent your enemies from making a mistake.
Reminded me of Obama's classic "please proceed, governor" in the Romney debate.
Lol. This old bitch is getting owned by his own insane base. Fucking hilarious.
Love that Kamala laughed at this in her response.
Women laughing bad!!!!
They literally believe that. Like, I've kind of fallen into a hole watching this one right wing cartoonist just to see how crazy the crazy gets, and he leans hard on Harris having a somewhat annoying sounding laugh that he turns up to 11.
Trump is too psychotic to laugh at all, or genuinely smile, for that matter. The closest he gets is that goofy smug smirk.
Women can’t laugh. Hillary got the same shit. And black women especially can’t be mad. It’s BS for sure.
