Wasn't rfk jr complaining about censorship? Isn't banning flag burning a form of censorship?

'Furious': Veterans slam Trump team's altercation at Arlington National Cemetery
"Donald Trump has no right to use our most hallowed ground for his political aims," Fred Wellman, a 22-year Army combat veteran, said Wednesday. "For a lot of us, and I'm not the only one, people are aptly furious."
...
The Trump campaign's insistence on using the setting to shoot campaign material is a "new low," said former Army undersecretary and Pennsylvania Rep. Patrick Murphy.
...
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said a cemetery official "clearly suffering from a mental health episode, decided to physically block members of President Trump's team."Arlington National Cemetery confirmed that "an incident took place" over photography inside Section 60. No charges have been filed, a police official told USA TODAY.

The campaign's response − attacking the mental health of a respected cemetery official − only prompted further backlash from veterans and veterans' groups.

Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Paul Eaton, a senior adviser at the progressive political action committee VoteVets, called the campaign's actions at the cemetery "nauseating."
...
"They see no issue bringing partisan politics there, even if it means getting into physical altercations with cemetery staff.," Eaton said in a statement to USA TODAY. "I truly cannot think of something more repugnant than starting a political fracas on land where Gold Star families mourn. Someone who would do that should never be Commander in Chief.”
..
Wellman said Trump's desire to honor the fallen still had to conform with the law. "There's an actual federal law on the books saying it cannot be used political purposes," he told USA TODAY. "The families put out a statement saying, 'Oh no, we authorized it.' They don't get that right. The families don't get the right to make decisions for the other people buried there."


How is trump able to keep tripping over his tiny little mushroom dick?

Donald Trump's Tariff Proposal Sparks Warning From Economists
"Even if this tariff policy will be applied only to countries that Trump views as political foes, it is remarkable that a person as educated as Trump would see all imports from those countries as ripping off the US. A significant proportion of imports into the US are intermediate goods that reduce the costs of US firms allowing them to make profits in competition with foreign rivals both at home and abroad.

"A tariff, would raise the costs and prices of these firms, hurting both the firms and US consumers. Firms in the US that compete directly with imports can enjoy increased profits from an import tariff, but this would typically involve the firm raising its prices at the expense of US consumers."

Spencer warned that countries hit by Trump's new tariffs would be "highly likely to retaliate with tariffs or other trade restrictions" of their own in a move that would "directly reduce U.S. experts and profits."
...
"If the idea is to expand domestic production of goods so as to benefit U.S. workers, not much expansion can be achieved in an economy such as the U.S. that is close to full employment. Any attempt at a major domestic expansion will instead increase inflationary pressures. Also, an objective to enhance U.S. exports is likely to fail. By raising U.S. costs, the tariffs will generally make U.S. exports less competitive."
Either trump is an idiot or he thinks voters are idiots.

both are true

Trump Insists He Won California in Wild, Jesus-Filled Rant With Dr. Phil

Dementia donald is still at it ...
“If Jesus Christ came down and was the vote counter, I would win California, OK?” Trump said. “In other words, if we had an honest vote counter, a really honest vote counter—I do great with Hispanics, great, I mean at a level no Republican has ever done—but if we had an honest vote counter, I would win California.”

If Trump is an idiot because tarriffs then Commiela is a FAR BIGGER idiot because:
-Price controls
-Cap gains from 20% to 45%
-Taxing unrealized gains (this should have anyone with a lick of common economic sense freaked out)

And I’m not even including banning fracking which she has now flip flopped on.

Funny how these economist sound off about Trump’s tariffs, but are crickets when it comes to Commiela’s catastrophically stupid economic ideas.

I don't disagree.

They're keeping people from freaking out over the tax on unrealized gains by limiting it to the uber wealthy. It's going to impact everyone when the some of the uber wealthy are forced to sell in order to pay the tax and they're fools if they don't think it will creep down the income ladder

(I actually agree there might be better ways to tax the rich but the current system is full of grift as well.)

No more of a gaffe than the faux outrage over Trump’s Arlington National Cemetery visit.

Those were actually about donOLD. These are about harris and should be posted on her gaffe thread.

Going thumbs up in front of heroes’ graves isn’t a gaffe?

Using a video taken at Arlington for a campaign ad isn’t a violation of military rules?

Posting that ad on a social media site controlled by the CCP isn’t an insult?

Not sure if this is a gaffe or just stupidity. Sadly, millions nodded their heads in agreement.
