discussion Be honest: did you felt empathy towards Trump after assassination attempt?

[MP3]

Regardless our political views, while watching what happened, did you felt bad or empathetic towards Trump?

[Kummercell]

I'm just sad that it failed.

(it was staged so it was bound to fail anyways)

[TaggedGalaxy]

**** no I only feel bad that the shooter missed

[Lightbringer007]

hell tf no

[Cesar]

[MerveAksak]

I dont feel sympathy towards bigots, sexists, racists and queerphobics... and let alone anyone male or female in filthy world of politics 

[LustSpell]

I'm ashamed it failed.

[Kool_Aid_King]

Not even a little bit

[JoeAg]

i'm sad it failed like all of the aforementioned iconic users said in some form or another 

[Saintlor]

No, but I also don't feel bad.

 

I just don't care that it happened

[FrederickGa]

Nope 

[Yog]

More like disappointed he missed 

[Virgos Groove]

None whatsoever. I don't understand how people can feel bad for him. Oppose the shooting? Sure, I can get that. But feel bad for him? **** that.

 

I dare anyone to watch the final episode of CNN's The 2010s and come back saying they feel sorry for him. This man, through his ego, recklessness and loyalty to the capitalist class, ended up killing 1 MILLION people with his disastrous handling of Covid. He incited his supporters to invade the Capitol and try to kill multiple politicians. When people protested against police brutality and in favour of BLM, his response was to quote a racist police chief ("when the looting starts, the shooting starts") and call on the National Guard to beat up protesters.

 

Seriously, recap the final year of his presidency alone and tell me he doesn't deserve what he's getting. What's an ear to a million dead people?

I don't feel bad for him, but the only reason I'm glad he wasn't killed was because it would be a sh**show if he died. the magas would go crazy, so many riots, and things would start getting really, really violent I feel like. I mean, he is literally their Jesus

HELL NO 

[BOOMBAYAH]

I don't have a solid opinion on it. What I will say, though, is that it's funny to me that politicians think an assassination attempt is abhorrent and evil but have no issue droning and bombing thousands of civilians to death. The right and left elite are anti-violence the moment it starts to impact the larger elite class they both inhabit. They are anti-violence the moment people actually start to revolt, because without the people they literally have zero power.

[Attitude]

Not really. I immediately thought "how will this affect me?" instead. 

[secretgarden]

No. 

[BrokenMachine]

No, since I have nothing in common with someone like him 

[byzantium]

I'm going to be honest, I did feel sad

Spoiler

Because now I feel like he is going to win Pennsylvania.  

 

[izzy™]

I didn't

[Gottasadae]

[Tusk]

Nope. 
 

He's never apologized for wishing death on the CP5.  So….

[Edonis]
