    The reason you were appalled by January 6 is because you believe the lies and propaganda. Which likely wasn't difficult since you WANTED to believe they were true. They weren't. You weren't there!

    As for your gullible assumption regarding the Trump "bloodbath" statement, it was taken completely out of context. Do your homework and quit falling for the lies and spin told by the media. Anyone who hears the full statement would have to be an idiot to think it was a statement about violence. There isn't a single person in the media who doesn't know this is a hatchet job. They edited out the entire context, claiming a snippet was referring to violence instead of a bloodbath of job losses in the UAW and auto industry. They know it and I suspect you know it too. It's just a vain attempt to lie in the hopes gullible voters can be conned into believing horse manure.

    The thing you don't realize is Trump does it on purpose. He knows the left-wing loonies will take the bait and lie and try to mislead and exaggerate, only to end up looking like fools to the rest of America. It is why no one listens to the MSM or the radical left-wing loonies. Its like water off a duck because the left has lost all credibility just like Schiff and his admitted and proven lies. The left just didn't realize how devastating surrendering their integrity would be. They've lost ALL credibility and they just keep eroding their reputation further (if that is even possible at this point).

    Trump's comment was taken out of context. Trump was commenting on auto imports from China and Mexico. He stated that there would be an economic bloodbath in the US auto industry unless he was elected President in 2024.

    This is another example of the progressive media lying to the American people. The Constitution gives privileges to the press because a honest and ethical press is needed to inform the electorate which is necessary for a democracy to exist. Instead today we get nothing but lies and misrepresentation of the facts by the main stream media.

    The main stream media cannot be trusted to tell the truth these days. That is disgusting and dangerous.

    Actually, it's quite similar to Hitler's 1930's Germany in that J6 has become the Left's Reichstag Fire.

    Left to their own devices they will destroy our Republic in the name of "saving democracy", just as the Nazis destroyed democracy in Germany...

    On February 27, 1933, the German parliament (Reichstag) building burned down. The Nazi leadership and its coalition partners used the fire to claim that Communists were planning a violent uprising. They claimed that emergency legislation was needed to prevent this. The resulting act, commonly known as the Reichstag Fire Decree, abolished a number of constitutional protections and paved the way for Nazi dictatorship.

    We’ve got compilations of a bunch of Democrat talking heads on the MSM and politicians using the phrase “bloodbath”…yet, crickets!!!

    Don’t some of YOU people understand nobody trusts your opinions anymore? They mean nothing. Just lie after lie after fake outrage. Just so fake.

    It's "Get Trump". The progressives consider Trump to be evil so that justifies any means to get him. Progressives have no ethics.

    How about "rooting out the vermin" aka his critics and Democrats? Was that about economics too?

    "out of context"?
    Well, IF that is the case THEN Trump should do a better job of articulating the braindead verbal diarrhea propaganda that he spews at his rallies.
    Thus:
    IF Trump wanted to avoid any misinterpretation of his words...
    THIS is how he should have phrased the sequence (added words in parentheses):
    "Now, if I don't get elected, it's gonna be a bloodbath for the whole (auto industry) ... that's gonna be the least of it, it's gonna be a/an (economic) bloodbath for the country, that'll be the least of it."
    ^Problem solved.
    Clear as day (what Trump meant). And, no chance for misinterpretation or "taking out of context".
    BUT, Trump (as always) screwed it up...

    The context was dealing with people, like those he considers 'radical left' (he routinely calls Democrats 'radical left') who are his political opponents, "who live like vermin within the confines of our country". He said he will have them "rooted out". Its about people, not economics, so what does the "rooting out" mean?

    From the dictionary:

    Root out: find and get rid of a harmful or dangerous person or thing.

    So, you are saying that the role models set by left have rubbed off on Trump to some small degree?

    The media should report honestly. The media as usual did not report honestly.

    I have Donald Trumps words where he talks about getting rid of his political opponents.

    Feel free to pretend he never said it. That's that his apologists are for, - to deny it was said, or to provide an excuse.

    What happened January 6th, happened. There's no doubt about it. It was uncalled for and it was wrong in the first place. Trump is a dangerous man and there's no doubt about that. The majority of the voters had spoken in 2020 on who they wanted and that's the way it was. We as a majority have to accept this and respect there is.
    As for the lies and propaganda, II don't know why Trump is for what he is. I know for a fact that he can't be trusted and that is a fact. You can say whatever you want but that's my opinion on Trump. If you want to support Trump, then do it. I know I won't support Trump for what he is and there are those out there that don't want him there either.

    Distortion seems to be the only concept of logic the left has in their toolbox. Thats pitiful- but being proven over and over. If you don't comprehend, you lack capacity- if you do, but distort... you lack honor, morals, values, all the things that make the difference between a man and a minion, a servile parroting the narrative because it came from their master.
    Let's clear the air on this one.

    Here is the statement where Trump used the term "bloodbath":

    "Trump, March 16: China now is building a couple of massive plants where they’re going to build the cars in Mexico and think, they think, that they’re going to sell those cars into the United States with no tax at the border. Let me tell you something to China, if you’re listening President Xi, and you and I are friends, but he understands the way I deal. Those big monster car manufacturing plants that you’re building in Mexico right now, and you think you’re going to get that, you’re going to not hire Americans, and you’re going to sell the cars to us? No. We’re going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those cars. If I get elected. Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath, for the whole — that’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. That’ll be the least of it. But they’re not going to sell those cars."

    “If you actually watch and listen to the section, he was talking about the auto industry and tariffs,” Steven Cheung, a spokesman for Trump’s campaign, told the Washington Post, adding that “Biden’s policies will create an economic bloodbath for the auto industry and autoworkers.”

    He was talking about AMERICAN JOBS, being lost to Chinese carmakers because a Biden government would allow them to invade the American market without consequence..... Something we see them allowing right now at the southern border.

    Imagine what would happen if the American auto industry went the way of the clothing industry- where 95% of what you wear everyday is now made in foreign countries. Those represent jobs Americans don't have, dollars America is sending offshore- benefitting other nations at the expense of our own people. Creating a dependency on other nations, because we no longer have the capacity to do without them.
    Trump has the vision to see and understand that, and the courage to call it and stop it. Biden- has to know this is true, but just doesn't care about the future of the nation.... or your children.

    The people trying to turn this into another "Hate Trump" justification ARE the predators. THEY seek to twist and distort truth and deceive people.... And that is something that rightfully deserves hate.
    Such people have no self-respect, they couldn't distort truth this way if they did. And lacking that quality, there is nothing to limit how low they will go.

    Trump wasn't a politician- he is a successful businessman known for cutting right to the chase, and getting things done where others fail. That scares entrenched politicians. It's like- he actually expects results.
    You won't see politicians doing that these days, especially left politicians. They simply don't have what it takes to do the job- and all you have to do is look at the wreckage the three years under Biden has produced to prove it. Assuming you can do that without lying to yourself.

    The left needs to blame Trump for what they actually do, to paint him dirty while masking themselves. It's a political tactic of people lacking respectable morals, a deception which you have apparently taken in without question.

    I didn't say the conduct of the left rubbed off on Trump. I said that you were implying that.....

    The context it right there. Like I said, feel free to defend his "rooting out the vermin" speech. That's what an apologist is expected to do. Or you can listen to the whole speech and then come back to explain what he "really" meant by getting rid of his critics.

    Have a nice day.

    Here's something you might be interested in:
    Donald Trump suffered a blow in Tuesday's primary in Florida, a state he only narrowly won in the 2020 presidential election, after thousands of Republicans refused to vote for him.

    While the former president won the primary with 910,857 votes, 81.2 percent of the overall share, some 197,000 people, or 17.8 percent, voted for either Nikki Haley or Ron DeSantis, despite both candidates having dropped out of the race.

    The results suggest the former president is losing support in Florida compared with the previous election in 2020. That year, he won about 94 percent of the state vote in the primary.

    The Republican went on to take the state in 2020 by a slim margin, securing 51.2 percent of the vote to Joe Biden's 47.9 percent.

    Newsweek contacted a representative for Trump by email to comment on this story.

    Last week, Trump was confirmed as the GOP nominee for November's presidential election after securing enough delegates across multiple primaries. He looks set to face-off against Democratic incumbent Biden in a rematch of the 2020 election.


    Whether Trump could beat Biden remains to be seen.
