Oh yes, read about loony Loomer and MTG, she must be bad then

Wasn't Hope Hicks employed just to press Trumpy's trousers, and of course look pretty.

Thread title suggestion, given we are now in a Post Truth Era;

What's True Pussycat?

Love it!

Oh my ! Trump in Tucson sounds like a cross between a Nazi propagandist and drunk uncle. Bad. Very bad

Loomer almost makes MTG look sane. But not quite.
MTG doesn't really care about Loomers racist tweets, it's more that it might make Trump look bad. Marge is quite the anti semite so she and Loomer aren't going to be braiding each other's hair.
MTG definitely had herself down as Trumps favourite whackjob and she's jealous that she's been traded in for a younger madder version

Words have consequences

Springfield City School District tells ABC News that they've evacuated two elementary schools: Perrin Woods and Snowhill Elementary. They're currently releasing those students to their parents.

Trump holding another "news conference" today. So any bets on it being yet another full on tirade, dismissing everything Harris said in the debate and regurgitating all his usual shit?

A Donald Trump news conference scheduled for 12 p.m. Eastern at his golf course in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., is running late. There has not been any published agenda, and we’re not entirely sure what the purpose of the press conference is.

It’s an overcast day, and he will be speaking outside overlooking the ocean.

I do wonder at this stage if there is any merit in the Harris team organising a debate that will go ahead with or without Trump’s participation? A “questions from the audience” style debate with an empty podium for Trump and after every question Kamala simply says “We’ll never know what Trump thinks about that as he’s too chicken to debate me again.”

Bit like the tub of lard to represent Roy Hattersley when he cancelled for the third time at short notice on "Have I Got News For You"?

Or - a la Stanley "wife beater" Johnson - let Dad turn up for you.

This is the SECOND day this shit has been going on.

Aaron Rupar's twitter thread on it

I can't believe that the good people of Springfield are happy with all this attention and having their town, at best, dissed and at worst, threatened.. (And this is Vance's own state!)

Still a few posts to go to close this thread but when we're done here's a new thread ready for next week's madness. (I can't believe he's still taking up space in my head - 8 years and counting 😡)

Story in the papers today saying police have released video footage of an American woman being arrested for killing and eating a cat in Canton, Ohio

reports I saw yesterday were that there was an arrest in August - not in Springfield - of a woman - not Haitian - who unfortunately was suspected of having drug abuse problems and/or mental health issues who had possibly killed and attempted to eat a cat.

Trump and the rest of the racist gang need to apologise PDQ before it gets out of control. (Won't happen though)

Trump's "press conference" last night was just a redo of the worst part of his debate, without those pesky fact checkers, it was on a par with Enoch Powell's "rivers of blood' speech.
The man is out of control

Anyhoo the genius Trump has vowed to deport all those Haitians, sending them 'back' to Venezuela 🙄

I totally agree. He talks like a nazi propogandist. Truly awful.. I cannot understand how it can even begin to be a close race but having inadvertently wandered onto a part of Twitter full of his supporters, it's made me realise that they are as deluded as him.

They honestly honestly think that he nailed the Debate. That it's totally obvious he ran rings round KH, they truly believe that.
I made no comment, you can't argue with stupid.

CNN interview with Pete Buttigieg - someone who does talk a lot of sense (IMO)

Buttigieg on why he thinks Trump is amplifying pet-eating conspiracy theory

Trump is saturating the interwebs to drown out the real dangerous analysis of Project 2025 and all it entails. For the vast majority of normal people who don't care about politics it will work.

You're spot on. All the pet eating hysteria stops people examining the important stuff

Yes!!

OMG, someone explained this to him as "the dead cat technique", didn't they? And being TFG...
