General Trump hilarity free-for-all thread

[Doktor Howl]

The dog whistling has ended. They're just bringing out bugles now. This isn't one of those slightly exaggerated things, this is something where someone did real research to send a real specific message. And that message is not possible to misinterpret.

They are coming for all of you fuckers too. I fucking said so. And here it is, proof I'm right.

Not only did the Trump campaign buy campaign ads featuring a nazi symbol... The campaign bought 88 of those ads.


Eighty. Eight.

This is Stephen Miller being cute again.

Yup, I thought that when I saw the ads themselves. This just clinches it.

It's fucking painful when he thinks he's being clever.

"Mouth-fucked by nazi's unconscious" he is.

[Cain]

The first sentence of the advert has 14 words, btw.

Yep.  That's as Stephen Miller as it gets.

Considering there are active paramilitary groups showing their faces (and guns) publicly now, ""lone wolf"" shooters hitting protestors, and the concentration camps have begun to be converted into death camps according to reporting... I feel like this is a dire threat no matter who it comes from.

Update (6/18/20, 1:15 p.m. EDT): Facebook has removed the ads in question following this post and public backlash. A Facebook spokesperson told Media Matters in a statement that "We removed these posts and ads for violating our policy against organized hate. Our policy prohibits using a banned hate group's symbol to identify political prisoners without the context that condemns or discusses the symbol."

But how long were the ads running for? Cause I would assume if they didnt have backlash they would have zero problem running them.

[Cain]

They were only up for a few hours in their original form. Less than 12, I think. Social media caught on very quickly to what was going on with these adverts.

Thank you for help identifying these.

Rumor is floating around parts of twitter that trump is getting too caught up in dementia, poll numbers tanking, so on and so forth...basically that we're going to see...a replacement. Some are saying Pence...but i'm not so sure (assuming there's any substance to the rumor anyway). I noticed Justin Amash seems to be waiting in the wings. Basically Trump...without all the White Nationalism. 


ETA: THAT IS TO SAY "OVERT" WHITE NATIONALISM

no fuckin way, not in a million years

Trump has too much energy invested in reelection, he cannot unplug that macihne now unless someone gives him an Out with High Ground. He's not gonna quit. I will believe it when I see it.

If I had a dollar for every post or article I've seen about how trump's goose is cooked, he's fucked now, it's all over, he can't win... I've been seeing that energy since 2015 and it's never been right.

[Cain]

Like Cram, I'd be surprised.

It should be noted there are some interesting "Republican against Trump" groups who are coordinating with Biden, however. As much as I'm not a fan of Biden, the things that make me not a fan of him make him very acceptable to "Never Trump" Republican centrists and his campaign has been coordinating with these groups.

I could definitely see them floating rumours of this kind, and putting forward Amash as a candidate to split the vote.

More or less my exact thought. Hate group "experts" were contorting themselves into pretzels over whether or not the red triangle thing was a "real" fascist dogwhistle or whatever. The fact that these turds honestly just get a big kick out of sharing their little not-secret codes just completely escapes them.

Like, years ago we were tickled pink that Colbert held up a yellow apple and said "Ewige Blumenkraft!" on-air. It didn't mean anything material, it was just funny.
