You definitely have the right as much as I do to post random stuff in a thread, but I was just curious if there was a point to any of that. It seems completely unrelated to the purpose of the post? |

I dunno man, you said something wacky, Bing said something wacky, I said some wacky stuff...I thought we were being wacky.

Now I'm just confused. How is this not a thread of wacky things being said?

Trump has called Harris, the Democrats or other perceived foes a “threat to democracy” a dozen times in the past month and more than 20 times since Harris got into the race.
“She shouldn’t be there anyway. She got no votes,” Trump said Friday in Las Vegas. “She’s a threat to democracy, right?”
“They’re the threat to democracy with the fake ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’ investigation that went nowhere,” Trump said at last week’s debate.
“THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!” Trump posted on social media just hours before Ryan Wesley Routh was apprehended Sunday after he allegedly hid himself in the bushes with a rifle and scope close to where Trump was golfing in West Palm Beach, Fla.
Trump has also used the “fascist” label at least seven times in the past month, and he used it dozens more times before that.
He invoked fascism twice Friday alone, including by calling Harris a “radical-left Marxist communist fascist.”
Of course, despite the claims about the danger of Democrats’ rhetoric, Trump’s has often gone well beyond even “threat to democracy.” He has repeatedly and suggestively promoted the prospect of political violence. He once promoted the words of a supporter who said, “The only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.” Just last year, he promoted a social media user who pledged to “physically fight” for him and talked about having his gun “Locked and LOADED.” He has downplayed the crimes his supporters committed on Jan. 6, 2021, and expressed support for them.
