2024 Presidential Election Thread

This is the lie that has been said by Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Liz Cheney and just recently Barrack Obama.

Disavow?

I agree with this snopes article.  I’m not sure what else to say.  Trump’s “good people on both sides” seems like a gotcha political outrage thing.

So just for funzies...

Obama, a black Democrat, is still perpetuating the "both sides" lie that even Snopes had to admit was a lie - even if it took them 7 years to admit.

Boogie, do you disavow?

Geeblock, what about you?

Kizer?

Ptown, where you at?

From your article..

For the record, virtually every source that covered the Unite the Right debacle concluded that it was conceived of, led by and attended by white supremacists, and that therefore Trump's characterization was wrong. 

Saw multiple males posting on Twitter and even a guy crying outside of an election site saying they voted for Kamala for their daughters… so they can kill their grandchildren? Wild.

Now that abortion is at the state level, what exactly does the president even have to do with abortion anymore? It’s up to Congress if they want to codify something into law.

Yeah, that's the point, gee. Everybody DID lie about it. For years.

Because people don't want to have any input to situations or circumstances. If everything is lorded down to you from the great godlike city of DC, all is well in the world for them. It's a comfort thing. A southern comfort, if you will 😏

Editors' Note: Some readers have raised the objection that this fact check appears to assume Trump was correct in stating that there were "very fine people on both sides" of the Charlottesville incident. That is not the case. This fact check aimed to confirm what Trump actually said, not whether what he said was true or false. For the record, virtually every source that covered the Unite the Right debacle concluded that it was conceived of, led by and attended by white supremacists, and that therefore Trump's characterization was wrong. 

as the full editor note says, i always assumed people were saying that no there werent very fine people on both sides, not that he didnt say his quote exactly as it is in the article

My wife works for the superintendent’s office…..our field house is holding the voting polls. Our superintendent removed all political signs placed on school grounds because they are not allowed to be there. Democratic Party blasted him on FB and reported him to every possible level. Said he only removed the democratic signs and you can guess the spewing on FB after that.

He removed all signs and the prosecutor said he was correct in doing so. Democratic Party refuses to remove their posts.

This is so obnoxious. Been happening everywhere with people not understanding the law. Watched a guy in a Trump hat, AND a woman wearing an anti-Trump shirt today have to go back to their cars to change/remove. They both complained about bias. Like, MFer, you ARE HERE AT THE SAME TIME AND CAN SEE IT ISN'T BIAS!. I just chuckled...

Seems as though this thread has devolved into people telling anecdotal stories about wacky ass democrats.  You do realize there are just as fine a selection of these on the republican side?  These kind of things prove and indicate nothing. It’s just social media (and Ohiochatter) hysteria.

Just more "people are saying" trash.

A HS friend just gave birth. Hospital pics of the baby in Trump onesie. LOL. The comments are fucking gold. 

I'll be on the beach. Glad to be away from all US news.

Media took only part of what he said and narrated it to make it seem something that it was not. Media and Dems perpetuated that lie for years. 

So are you telling me that you just can't wrap your head around this or are you being intentionally obtuse because you can't bring yourself to say that Harris, Walz and Obama shouldn't be repeating the lie?

But you've been just fine hearing about what stupid shit orange man bad and MAGA people have said and done all this time. We know. 

Just finished voting about 1/2 hour ago. Live in a very small town. Wait wasn't long but still one of the largest lines of people I've seen here in the 22 years I've been in town.

I’m saying the counter protesters there were neo natzis. I’m saying there weren’t very fine people there counter protesting. As the editorial note says. This counter protest was organized by  neo nazis. 

Oh amazing, let's needle back and forth for fucking eternity.

Ok so you're being obtuse on purpose, also misrepresenting what was said and what was being referred to.

Got something new to talk about or are you just pissing out of boredom?

Lead on, soldier!

Not really. Please post more Google search screenshots for us to gloss over. 

And 5 hours later the Democratic Party finally took down their post
