24 Hours of Trump

August 29, 2024 · 5:50 am ET · Leave a Comment

Washington Post: “Donald Trump amplified a vulgar joke about Vice President Kamala Harris performing a sex act. He falsely accused her of a staging a coup to secure the Democratic nomination and faulted her without evidence for a security lapse that enabled a rogue gunman to try to assassinate him. He shared a manipulated online image of Bill Gates in an orange jumpsuit and a call for Barack Obama to face a ‘military tribunal.’ He promoted explicit tributes to the QAnon conspiracy theory. He hawked digital trading cards in an online infomercial along with pieces of his debate night suit… His campaign feuded publicly with Arlington National Cemetery over their visit.”

“And that was just in the span of 24 hours.”

New Republic: Trump goes on crazed, violent rant calling for death of his enemies.
