So the nut whisperer's tiny hands are clean per your view?

Not completely, his rhetoric is overboard. But in terms of the underlying point of what he is saying, I think he is right more often than wrong.

His point is "shut up and praise me praise me PRAISE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE--"

[Jerzyland]

Yeah, only bc Superman shot himself in the head.

June 1959. Everything went to hell after that. Ask any Alex Jones listener.

Go lie down under your swastika quilt with Frau Ethel and dream dreams of the pure Aryan race, or David Hasselhoff.. either way.

I’m kidding Ethel.. *pats head* I generally enjoy and agree with some of your posts..

[Ethel mermania]

1. You dont get to set the parameters of my answers.
2. I never claimed you said "bomb makers", you are reading things that are not there.
3. I answered your question.. try reading the whole sentence.

Considering that all of your answers were an attempt to claim that my original post was not true, I think I do. I have been arguing with that logical continuity in mind. If you are thinking otherwise, then we're not having the same discussion.

My Twitter is for twits post?

I dont think we are having the same discussion.

Nope:

Not really. His base, and the American (far)right's media stars have already accepted that it is a false flag.

EDIT: Or at best, a singular lunatic.

We have?

Superman killed himself and all his victimized little kid fans would become increasingly sad and angry over the next 60 years. This is the absolute TV truth, Divorce Court justice and the American wane.
Lois Lane? Well ...they never did lock her up.

The van also had stickers on it critical of several of the Democratic individuals who had been the intended recipients of the mail bombs.

Trump’s devoted followers in the sports arena were also scathing about that. Kathy Chenette, 62, a realtor from Mooresville, North Carolina, said she had read on Twitter that the same configuration of stickers on the back of the van had been photographed on the side of the van.

“This was obviously Photoshopped,” she said. “I think it’s a distraction against the invasion of illegal immigrants at the border. It’s all set up by Soros.”

When the president himself is quotemarking the word “bomb” it’s no surprise his supporters believe it’s all a fake and this shit shouldn’t be excused.

Huh... How odd... And here I thought they didn't believe it was a false flag...

However this is indisputable and can't be argued to not been violent.


This will be hard for Trump to spin as a hoax.

He hardly needs to try..

“I bet $500 they are lying,” he said. “I bet it was a liberal who did it. Have you stopped to think why those bombs were only sent to high-level Democrats? They are trying to make it look like Donald Trump is encouraging terrorism.”

He added: “The truth is, the liberals are the terrorists.”

His wife agreed.

“It seems like a lot’s been planted to make it look like a Trump supporter did it,” said Carrie Pennington, 48.

Please tell me that is a fake quote.

It sounds harsh but plenty of Trump supporters are just too dumb to reason with.

..it’s not just fringe supporters either..

Nevertheless, without evidence, a number of ostensibly mainstream conservatives joined more overtly conspiracist outlets in either expressing skepticism that conservatives would damage their own cause, or making outright accusations that the left are orchestrating the bombing campaign in order to sabotage Republicans.

In a now-deleted tweet, on Thursday Fox Business TV host Lou Dobbs wrote: “Fake News – Fake Bombs. Who could possibly benefit by so much fakery?” Dobbs has a close relationship with Trump and the two reportedly speak frequently on the phone.

Elsewhere on Fox, three guest analysts suggested that the bombs were “false flag” attacks.

Also on Thursday, the president’s son, Donald Trump Jr, liked a tweet which read in part: “FAKE BOMBS MADE TO SCARE AND PICK UP BLUE SYMPATHY VOTE.” In the past he has liked tweets questioning whether the Parkland survivor David Hogg was actually present at the Florida school shooting that led him to become gun control campaigner.

On Wednesday, after a caller said the bomb plot didn’t “pass the smell test”, the leading talk radio host Rush Limbaugh asked rhetorically: “Would it make a lot of sense for a Democrat operative or Democrat-inculcated lunatic to do it? Because things are not working out the way they thought.”

His fellow rightwing broadcaster, Michael Savage, opined the same day that there was a “high probability that the whole thing had been set up as a false flag to gain sympathy for the Democrats”, and to distract from the so-called “caravan” of migrants currently in southern Mexico.

The far-right and anti-immigrant media personality Ann Coulter, meanwhile, claimed on Wednesday that the “bombs are a liberal tactic”. The conservative author and film-maker Dinesh D’Souza, whose recent work has drawn parallels between Democrats and Nazis, tweeted: “I hear the FBI squeezed lemon juice on the suspicious packages and a very faint lettering revealed a single word: DEMOCRATS.”

I need to see it.

I don't believe anyone could be that entrenched in stupidity and bullshit.

[Knessniet]

Hmmmmm...

This seems to be working too well for the democrats. I'd bet that this was orchestrated by Soros himself. He sent a bomb to a house he knew he wouldn't be at, thus exempting himself from suspicion. Then, the man he hired decorated his van with pro-Trump stickers, and took one for the liberal team. That is, he got arrested for the attacks. The media was targeted so they would be riled up by it, thus giving them a justification to go on their usual witch hunt.

Then of course, this is just a hunch. I know it's Alex Jones-level conspiracy, but let's face it, Soros has the motive and the means, and he would know that the USPS is too good at detecting bombs to actually harm his "targets".

Give it a thought?
