He still managed to fit in a line that was both racist and misogynist "he “joked” that NFL player Travis Kelce was the next O.J. Simpson, pleasing the incels in the crowd who wish violence on Taylor Swift." https://www.playtyperguy.com/p/why-that-trump-rally-puerto-rico
Oh by the way, you'll never guess what OTHER jokes that delightful non-comedian makes. According to MeidasTouch:
"While the racist jokes told at the Trump rally were trending online, a slew of Hinchcliffe's old tweets resurfaced showing that the performer asked anyone if they wanted to split the cost of buying a slave, and making jokes about 9/11 deaths, genocide, Black people being eradicated, and Hitler killing people. Hinchcliffe also made fun of special needs children and their parents."
After mulling it over, I think what's going on is Hinchcliffe is that kid in high school who kept the bullies from beating him up by being the "funny guy" who redirected their rage at other, more vulnerable people. As a result, they let him hang around, and he deluded himself into thinking that meant they were friends. Even when they still picked on him a little when they were hanging out. And he only ever got to make out with the girl none of them wanted, even when it was clear the girl herself was only going along with it because she, too, wanted to hang out with the popular kids. And those constant little chips to his self-esteem and sad desperation to belong to something, anything, means he just never really developed as a person.
Now, here we are X number of years later, and he's still trying the same shit, because he never got past high school. It's honestly pathetic, and I'd be more charitable to him if his bullshit wasn't capable of being so horrifically destructive.
The October Surprise has always been a Republican tactic used against Democrats. Who would have imagined that the 2024 October Surprise would be a Republican tactic used against Republicans?
Ta, Evan. I can, off the top of my head, come up with a list of C words describing that thing: convict, corrupt, clown, cheat, crass, clogged, criminal.
Stable ( you know, where they keep horses) genius Margis Greene has pointed out the knee-slapper Hinchcliffe was merely referring to the waste management problems on the American territory. Comedy gold!

The polls are tied because the MSM needs the polls to be tied for the clicks and eyeballs, and the money is too good for the pollsters to say no. The billionaires are throwing greenbacks around like it was a bukake video.
It's not like the pollsters are breaking the rules or anything. Just bending them. Just a smidge.
HuffPost: Trump Mocks 1939 Nazi Rally Comparisons, Calls Madison Square Garden ‘A Lovefest'
"Trump wrapped up his remarks at Mar-a-Lago by fondly recalling his racist Madison Square Garden rally held Sunday. “The love in that room, it was breathtaking,” Trump said. “It was like a lovefest, an absolute lovefest.”
He addressed critics like Walz and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who pointed out that the venue had been used some eight decades previously for a pro-Nazi rally that included similar anti-immigration themes. “They started to say, ‘Well, in 1939, the Nazis used Madison Square Garden,’” Trump said, prompting supporters in attendance to boo. “Can you imagine, ‘In 1939, the Nazi’ … How terrible to say, right, because you know, they’ve used Madison Square Garden many times," Trump said, falsely.
"But nobody’s ever had a crowd like that," he went on. “And I’ll tell you right now, nobody’s ever had love like that. That was love in the room, and it was love for our country.”
Of course it does. But he frequently seems to catch himself, after he's said a bunch of self-glorifying things, and tack on something about "our country" in some halfhearted way.
See, I actually think when he says "the country," he literally just means himself. He's always blathering about how his court cases, etc etc are terrible "for the country," and so forth, things that are only terrible for him.
Every time one of these choads says something racist, or sexist, or homophobic, or rape-cultureish, or any one of a thousand other deplorable things, they always try to evade responsibility by saying, "It's a joke", or worse yet, "It's just a joke", "just a toy", "just a TV show", whatever.
`
This is not only cowardly and dishonest, it's a shit argument AS AN ARGUMENT.
We all already know that it's "Just a joke".
LITERALLY NO ONE is criticizing your horrible racist joke because they mistakenly thought it was a documentary. LITERALLY NO ONE is criticizing your horrible rapey episode of "Family Guy" because they mistakenly thought that they were tuning in to "Citizen Kane".
We are well aware that it's "Just a joke". *Within the category of jokes*, there are good and bad jokes. This one is a bad joke, for bad people.
Judging by what I've seen of conservative comedy, they think that if you simply express your opinions in setup-punchline form, no one will hold them against you.
>>It remains a mystery, as ever, why people think Trump and his campaign are a bunch of malevolent fucking creeps.
It remains a mystery to me how anyone thinks they're running a good campaign. It's mostly been farting out hamburder poops for the base. The fact that they're still in this at all says more about their brainwashed masses and less about any competency from the campaign.
One C-word I know is 'Crom'. Another C-word is 'curse'.
Put them together and I get this: MAY CROM SMITE THE HEINOUS TRUMP AND ALL HIS LICKSPITTLE ASSHOLE SERVANTS!
May their sporstball teams all lose their division games!
May their children disavow and shun them!
May their basements and attics be invaded by rabid raccoons who give birth to baby rabid raccoons!
May all the baby raccoons get their own podcasts that outperform Joe Rogan!
There. I feel better. I needed to get that off my chest.
And please spare me any worry about my eternal damnation for cursing. Crom doesn't exist nor do his devils. I would get better service by praying to a bottle cap floating down a gutter in a rainstorm.
Crom may not exist but we all do. And the best curse we got is to curse with our money! Send a few Ameros to Democrats & Harris/Walz today! Every penny is a dagger in the heart of Trump! GET OUT THERE AND VOTE!
THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN IS NOTHING MORE THAN MODERN DAY NAZIS AND TRUMP IS MODERN DAY HITLER.TRYING TO TAKE AWAY OUR RIGHTS.VOTE BLUE.
As should be a surprise to no one, the best Halloween song is by Bob Dylan:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CERo3DpxCrA
All through the summers, into January
I've been visiting morgues and monasteries
Looking for the necessary body parts
Limbs and livers and brains and hearts
I'll bring someone to life, it's what I wanna do
I wanna create my own version of you
<snip>
I'll take the Scarface Pacino and The Godfather Brando
Mix it up in a tank and get a robot commando
If I do it upright and put the head on straight
I'll be saved by the creature that I create
I'll get blood from a cactus, gunpowder from ice
I don't gamble with cards and I don't shoot no dice
Can you look at my face with your sightless eyes?
Can you cross your heart and hope to die?
I'll bring someone to life, someone for real
Someone who feels the way that I feel

Yet the polls are tied. Next Tuesday is so much more scary than anything Halloween could throw at me.

He means, love for HIM. He always means himself. That's the only thing that exists for him.

If it gets to be as big as Hillbilly Eulogy, I'll cut you in.
