Pennsylvania Trump Supporters Receive Threatening Letters Days Before Election

Jeezis. Really? These are not difficult dots to connect. Trump and MAGAts promote confrontational, threatening dialog all the time. That has created an atmosphere that leads to this type of behavior.





They've been hammering him with these labels since 2015 because that's how long he has been a divisive, lying political candidate. He calls people worse. Routinely.

As to your "opinion" as to why the Left is "lashing out"...I find these forms of gaslighting to be among the most interesting. They are almost like little insider, dog-whistling Pep Talks. You have absolutely no idea who is going to win. And you are damn lucky that Trump has not sabotaged his own chances of winning.

It's coming down to the wire. The Left sure isn't "losing" yet. They very well may. But MAGAts are just as concerned that they may too. It doesn't matter how much you deny it.

That’s nowhere near the truth. They’ve been magnitudes worse than Trump in lies and rhetoric that could easily spark violence since day one.

That last line is....once again...nothing but your opinion. It is not fact in any way. And it defies logic and history. You just keep coming up with more and more ways of denying and deflecting.

NO ONE influential, other than Trump, has used this type of rhetoric on a routine basis for as long as he has. And he has done so for years.

The difference is that I could back MY opinion with countless examples.

It would be tempting to start a contest: we will both see how many "quotes" we can find from Trump and others to support our argument.

But I'm not wasting time playing.

Anyone with any objectivity knows I could bury this thread with them without breaking a sweat.

Fuck that.

Not worth it. And no one wants it. Especially you, trust me. You will not look good.

So could I, and countless is way to small of an estimate. Some of them even garnered a Pulitzer for fake reporting.

Clearly, that’s your choice to make.

That’s the weirdest thing ever. I’d love to hear their explanation, they’ve posted nothing about it on X as far as I can tell. If you watch close they show the McCormick race too, with a check mark indicating that he’s the projected winner but behind by a lot. WTAF?

Note from WNEP: Election test results mistakenly shown on air
PENNSYLVANIA, USA — Test results for the upcoming November 5 general election mistakenly appeared on WNEP-TV early Sunday evening during a broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix.

Those numbers should not have appeared on the screen, and it was an error by WNEP that they did...

Remember:
  • Safe and effective...
  • 3 weeks to slow the spread...
  • The race is close, within a couple points...
Yeah, right?
