At the latest trump rally in Michigan, GOP Congresswoman McCain told the crowd that Trump had gotten Bin Laden and they all cheered. They cheered for his great deed of getting the man who planned 9/11. Only one problem with that, he did not get Bin Laden, that was Obama and Trump just took the cheers without telling the crowd that it was Obama. Maybe in his mind he thinks he did do that, he lies so much he even lies to himself. The real thing here is that the GOP Representative and the crowd were so stupid they did not even realize the mistake. Trump has said he likes uneducated people and this might be the proof.

I always say...you can't trust those "McCain's".

(You got the lady's name wrong.)
 
McClain made the statement. Trump did nothing to correct her. Not surprising.
Trump does believe in alternative facts. :giggle:

""Caught Osama bin Laden and Soleimani, al-Baghdadi," said Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., during a Trump rally Saturday in Washington Township, Mich., in a speech in which she attacked President Joe Biden's foreign policy."Caught Osama bin Laden and Soleimani, al-Baghdadi," said Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., during a Trump rally Saturday in Washington Township, Mich., in a speech in which she attacked President Joe Biden's foreign policy.

Um, pretty much everyone in the free world knows Obama was on watch when Bin Laden was killed.

A faux-pas and forgetting to correct one does not "stupid" make.

Hey, how about Trump was on the mission! Didja ever think of that? Huh? Course not. Your TDS just won't let you admit that he was literally boots-on-the-ground and It's only just now been declassified!
Just wait, you got another surprise coming about who really dragged Saddam Hussein outta his hidey-hole. That's right, that's right, his initials are DJT!

Yeah, that's it. Those crowds always cheer for blatant, obvious mistakes.
Actually, 'those crowds' might do.

The cheers from the audience were not a faux pas. They were people showing how ill-informed they are. And Trump's not correcting and taking faux credit for it, shows what a narcissist he is. It's all about him, even when it's wrong as long as it is about him and makes him look good. It wasn't a faux pas on his part. And, as for Rep. McClain, she must really be stupid - either for not knowing it was Obama, or for thinking she could say such a thing, even knowing it was a lie, and no one would catch her in her lie. A faux pas is a mistake, not a showing of ignorance or self-aggrandizement. Here we have examples of stupidity and self-centeredness. No faux pas. But, your post makes it easy to see how the cultists can excuse such negative character traits.
 
Warm weather. Blues festivals. Country festivals. Open highway and snow capped mountains.

Who in their right mind goes to a trump rally?
People who have grievances against an ill-defined Other as their explanation for their life situation, and want to go to a safe space where they are told things that make their brain produce chemicals that elicit a pleasurable feeling.

As for us, we're headed to Tahoe next week.

Hit me up. I'll buy you a beer at the Crystal Bay Club.

My "other" is clearly defined. I'll be doing things other than a trump rally.

Yes, the stupidity of Trump followers amazes me.

But they also scare me, which is a lot worse. This country is doomed if the Republicans are ever in charge again, because they will never accept future election defeat again. Jan 6 proved that.

The 'Other' is 'ill-defined' because it doesnt exist. Thats just another in a long line of liberal lies. And as for people with 'grievances' looking for a 'safe space' that defines the left, not the right. Its not easy to be that clueless and get so much wrong in such a short post b ut you pulled it off. Congrats.

That is totally false and a painfully stupid level of fear mongering on your part but I guess that is why you are here. So carry on.

Nobody 'forgot to correct' anything. It turned into a lie of omission on that stage with everyone standing nearby there as liars of omission.

I will continue to speak the truth about how your fascist Republican Traitor Party tried to overthrow our government on Jan 6. I need no invitation from you.

The statement you quoted is patently obvious. The attack on democracy began even before election day with efforts to undermine the returns before most of the ballots were even cast and continued right past Jan 6. We now have a new template to turn an election loss into a fund-raising bonanza. Trump raised more than 207.5 million pouring in after election day for 'legal challenges' by Dec 4 2020 about 75% of which went nowhere near a law firm. That's one hell of a motive in every municipal, county, state and federal election loss across this country to attack every result up and down the ballot. The corrosive impact will be a partisan poison to democracy as losing candidates flood the courts, the airwaves and social media with tales of pillow cases full of ballots being dumped down toilets or burned in bonfires, bizarre conspiracies involving nefarious voting machines, and efforts to redefine the American voter as a victim or a cheater. The campaigns will have a field day buying and selling the lists of the partisan schmucks who drag out their credit cards 'to save democracy' to Superpacs .

I won't go into the other side partisan 'benefits' to these legal challenges but rest assured, any candidate who walks away from a defeat graciously, without taking this new opportunity to lengthen campaign season and fuel partisan division and mistrust through these allegations, will be putting his own future, and his party at a competitive disadvantage.

I will give Trump this, nobody has ever been more adroit at finding a mark for a con, and exploiting his fears, and rage to line a pocket. Donald is nothing if not clever at smelling a business opportunity where nobody else saw one.

Seems she was just a bundle of lies.

Lol, everything about the current form of the gop is a faux-pas.

You libs love the 'Big Lie' and havent a clue as to what a fascist is. Dont get drunk on the Kool aid.

We don't love the "Big Lie" as much as Trump and you Republicans who constantly whine about how the 2020 election was stolen.
 
The statement you quoted is patently obvious.
No, its patently false and patently stupid. But its the type of leftist propaganda that you libs just cant get enough of.

I find it funny that Right wingers like to say Hitler was a socialist while he was actually a fascist, like Mussolini.
