Donald is about to go through some things...


Former President Donald Trump pulled out of an interview after he was asked to back up his claim that crime is on the rise under President Joe Biden, a newspaper has reported.

"The Trump campaign had initially agreed that Trump would participate in an interview with The Detroit News on Tuesday," state politics reporter Craig Mauger wrote. "But after the newspaper began asking about the Michigan crime data before the event, a campaign aide said the presidential candidate no longer had time for an interview after the speech."

It comes after the former president claimed at a Michigan campaign event on Tuesday that there is a "crime wave" going on at levels "nobody has ever seen before."

In big cities "almost all run by Democrats," he said, "you can't walk across the street to get a loaf of bread. You get shot. You get mugged. You get raped. You get whatever it may be."

There is no evidence to suggest crime is on the rise under Biden. Federal Bureau of Investigation data shows the national violent crime rate dropped in the first two years of the Biden administration, hitting 380.7 incidents per 100,000 people in 2022, down from 398.5 incidents in 2020.

Meanwhile, Michigan-specific data tracked by the Michigan State Police showed that violent crime increased 12 percent to 48,674 incidents from 2019 to 2020 while Trump was in the White House. Violent crime rose again by 1 percent to 49,073 incidents in 2021 during the first year of Biden's term, the data shows, before dropping in 2022 about 7 percent to 45,449.

MSP data also shows that murders in Michigan peaked in 2020, before dropping in 2021 and 2022, while incidents of robbery and rape have generally been decreasing since 2018.

"Trump's implication that the crime rate is only going up is false," Anna Harvey, a political science professor and director of the Public Safety Lab at New York University, told CNN. "During 2020, the last year of the Trump presidency, violent crime rose dramatically. The murder rate, for example, increased by almost 30 percent, the largest one-year increase on record. But violent crime has been falling during the Biden presidency."

Poor trump wants everyone to hate america as much as he does and be afraid to walk around. Also when he made these statements his lips were moving so.........

how can anyone vote for this?
They’re anti social cultists. They like this. All of the normal good people in the GOP have left. Or aren’t voting for Trump. Those who remain and support Trump hate America, hate the majority of Americans in this country, and hate our multi cultural democracy. They love a despicable human being and enjoy how he attacks those they also hate. They blame their own failures and boring lives on blacks, immigrants, Jews, etc. they live vicariously through Trump. They find Trump’s entire troll job to be entertaining. It brings them a sense of identity and purpose.

Be there, or be square! Trump and the MAGA party will rewrite history. They’ve been doing it all along. Two different realities. They’ll rewrite school history texts to reflect the lie that Trump won the 2020 election. I don’t believe it will happen, because I don’t expect him to win. But, if he does, every effort will be made to recreate a fictitious history of the United States that will accord the J6 attackers on the People’s House full hero status. Two entirely different realities.

"Trump uttered over 30,000 lies in his first term, according to The Washington Post. To understand how he has dissolved the relationship between accountability and public discourse, no need to look further than the Financial Times which quoted what an evangelical leader said about Trump days after Biden’s catastrophic debate on CNN: “As President of the United States, he kept every single promise he made to us.” The next day, FT journalist Martin Wolf pointed out that Trump’s ability “to define the truth for his followers is an example of the Führerprinzip — the idea that the leader defines the truth.” Wolf is alluding here to German jurist Carl Schmitt, one of the most influential thinkers on the new right, and his essay, The Fuhrer Protects the Law. Whoever believes that the analogy is an exaggeration, and that Trump does not even have a Schmitt, should know that perhaps Adrian Vermeule, the Harvard professor who promotes an “illiberal legalism” will suffice. The Supreme Court has already said that Trump is above the law.


Kraus understood that the aim of the message relayed by Nazi propaganda was not so much to appropriate “the atrocities as the clarifications,” just as Trump does not seek to appropriate anything in particular, except media attention, i.e. everything. When the real world ceases to be the reference, and speeches are only compared to each other, the triumph of truly self-referential politics becomes inevitable. The news is not that his running mate baptized him in 2016 as the “Hitler of the United States,” but that, if it was a criticism back then, today J.D. Vance could repeat it as praise and still appear coherent, because denouncing contradiction in Trump’s world makes no sense — contradiction is Trump’s modus operandi.

Voegelin argues that it was against this background of indifference that National Socialism also triumphed, and relies on Kraus, and his dissection of the “doublespeak of Germany,” to try to “refute all the lies that have been told about [the concentration camps], that is, the second reality elaborated by (...) the German episcopate.” Hitler’s rise to power also highlighted the failure of Social Democracy, including Austrian Social Democracy which, even when it witnessed German comrades tortured and murdered, still preferred to oppose the Austrian Christian Democratic government rather than the German National Socialists.


“Devoted to the pastime of palaver and tactics, they have lost almost all material gains,” Kraus wrote of the Social Democrats and the Social Democratic intellectuals, who believed “they could break [the] magic circle [of Nazism] by means of the Constitutional Court.” Consequently, Kraus supported the Austrian Christian-Democratic Chancellor: anything other than Hitler.
 
Buknutz said he likes RFK Junior? Listening to him endorsing Trump and all nonsense he was rambling I could not decide who is more stupid of them two... wow, what a moron, he is even more delusional than Trump.
The question for this forum now is, who will @Bucknutz support now that RFK is out of the race?
