Trump on Liz Cheney: ‘Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her’

[Rogue Valley]

I saw the video of Trump speaking on another thread and that quote is not complete.

I get the exact context Trump was talking about, a war hawk actually experiencing war but Trump could have said it better. You might not think so and like it when Presidential candidates paint a violent picture of an ex-congress woman but I expect our leaders to ask questions like that in a better and less violent way.

Trump wants Cheney shot in the face

When is enough enough with this guy. It is unimaginable that a former POTUS would speak this way.

debatepolitics.com

But the entire point here is to intimidate viewers and lend to himself the image of a badass. (for all those who fawn over dictators like Trump does)

Truth is, Trump is the cowardly lowlife who dodged Vietnam via Daddy's deep pockets.

 

[Uncensored2008]

this is all total nonsense.

EricPrince is firmly in the Trump camp. Trump made his sister Secretary of Education.

No imaginary oligarchs ordered anyone to turn Syria into a “full blown war” (it already was.’’)

But, Putin got Trump to quit Syria, tuern over US bases to the Russians, and say nothing when the Russians resumed barrel bombing Aleppo.

Are you saying we have always been at war with Eastasia?

Syria does not have American involvement to any significant degree, much to the chagrin of democrat War Pigs.

Syria - unlike Afghanistan - was stripped to the ground of all American assets when we left. Biden left all of our equipment for the Taliban and his sponsors - China - to get and reverse engineer. Hey, China hasn't been briben Biden for 40 years for nothing.

 

[Uncensored2008]

You seem to be confused as to what is a war and what is a covert action.
A justified covert action at that, considering that Soleimani lead the covert IED actions in Iraq which have maimed and killed so many US troops in Iraq.

Democrats aren't concerned with American Troops being killed. democrats want to ensure the safety of Iranian terrorists. democrats have priorities.

The liberal defense of the Cheneys now is hysterical.

As are the ways in which the right wing is adopting all the bad-faith criticisms of the mid-2000's.

Pro Big Taxes, Pro Big Spending, Pro Big Government, Pro Foreign Dictators, and Pro Choice.

That's one helluva a "Republican" Party Trump has given us.

I dont disagree with a lot of that, but we have only two choices. Either Harris or Trump will be president. As bad as Trump is in many ways, I prefer him over Harris.

I'm going to go ahead and guess that your familiarity with the latter stages of the war on terror is approximately.... nil?

This is incorrect on two counts:

1. We were told to get out in 24 hours in Syria, and we definitely left the majority of our stuff. Our allies were pissed, because we were F'ing them over without coordination.

2. Despite that, we never fully left Syria and are still there today.

 

[Geoist]

The MIC wanted the Forever War moved to Syria - Trump wanted it stopped.

Trump would only 'stop' wars that did not benefit his master Putin.

That's a lie

Then why was it Biden and not Trump who exited Afghanistan? Why did Trump push back the exit date?

That also is a lie - he said claiming the invasion was "liberation" and holding elections to support it was genius - but the next time a Marxist tells the truth will be the first time.

Every invader claims to be liberating the invaded. We did that with Iraq (another war that Trump supported, btw).

But go ahead and spin away for Dear Leader as you always do.

I understand that approach. Absent a medical event, assassination, nuclar war, or meteor strike (cmon, SMOD), we are very likely to get one of those people.

However, that does not mean that I have to hold back on any criticism of either, regardless if I think one might be more or less dangerous or destructive than the other. The GOP has become a twisted ugly mirror of the Democratic Party when I opposed it. They don't deserve my apologism

Have at it.

So you admit that Trump as the "peace candidate" is just BS.

The best info we have to go on is what happened in his first term, versus what has gone on since. The world has become unquestionably less stable under Biden/Harris.

 

[Taylor]

The irony of your post is just too much...

Sorry, but #eohrnberger already beat you to that one...

Even if that position is on her knees or prone.

 

[Geoist]

Sorry, but #eohrnberger already beat you to that one...

Why are you reposting disgusting sexist crap? Weird.

 

[NOLA Dude]

And?

Liz Cheney was fighting to keep us in Afghanistan so her friends in the military industrial complex could make more money. She's a warmongering neocon. The worst of the worst.

 

[NOLA Dude]

And then Democrat Biden left Afghanistan.

Your arguments make ZERO sense.

You seem to have trouble keeping up with the conversation. She asked why he didn't immediately get out of Afghanistan. I posted the article showing the neocons democrats did everything they could to prevent it.

 

[NOLA Dude]

When did that ever stop him? He didn’t need Congress to release 5000 Talibán terrorists why would he think it’d matter if he withdrew troops.

Just admit you didn't know what you were talking about.

Then why didn't the Democrats prevent Democrat Biden from getting out of Afghanistan?

 

[ClaraD]

I do know. It seems facts are getting in your way.

 

[Uncensored2008]

President Donald "Anti-War" Trump had FOUR YEARS to end the Afghanistan War.

Yes, and drew it down to a skeleton force, to be completed during his second term.

He chose to keep it going and leaving it to President Joe Biden to end that totally needless war.

Iran's Employee of the decade botched the job. Trump had a masterful plan with no American casualties. Biden got 13 Americans killed and transferred billions in equipment to the Taliban and China. What a disaster - Iran and China did bribe Biden for nothing...

 

[LouC]

Because the media, the necons and Democrats threw a hissy fit when he said he was going to leave Afghanistan.

That isn't true.

<incorrect media snipped>

You failed to read the amendment Liz Cheney co-sponsored.

"Cheney wouldn't be so eager to send US soldiers overseas to fight if she were joining them on the front lines."

How friggin' hard was that to say? Donald is either an idiot who regularly eschews the use of his very good brain, or he is deliberately saying things a specific way for a reason. Either way - unfit to lead.

I love this talking point. It belies the absolute arrogance of the American people. As if we can prevent any and all bad things that bad people do in this world, without actually starting WW3 or stooping to appeasement.

This is exactly it. He starts off on the right foot - this is a cogent argument to make about the Cheneys. Especially Dick Cheney.

Unfortunately, his disruptive thoughts get in the way of completing this effectively. He was either:
1) fantasizing about Liz Cheney going in front of a firing squad, or
2) wanted to combine the argument with a descriptive threat of his personal retribution.

Either way it's not a good look. Par for the course, I'm afraid.

 

[TamleeB]

So? She also said she won’t try to overthrow the government or our Constitution

Just posting accurate information in regards to what she said four years ago.

Actually Trumps fantasy was for her to go to WAR. To be there in the battle, faced with life or death situations. Faced with guns pointed directly at her, not someone else’s son or daughter.

Then he could have just said that. Simple, easy.
