Twitter labels Trump tweets as ‘potentially misleading’ for the first time - The Verge

The label was imposed on two tweets Trump posted Tuesday morning falsely claiming that “mail-in ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent” and would result in “a rigged election.”*

Trump misleading? Don't be silly...Trump is always correct, reality is frequently inaccurate.

Question, and a serious one - if Trump loses, will this be the basis fir him refusing to give up power, and hiw many if our resident Trumpians will back that?
 
Well there's that "truthful" President we all know and love.

His base may rabble about resisting, but remember, many of these folks are Quixote-tarians. They're all talk no action. If Trump loses, he's not going to stay in power after the time he's supposed to leave. And there's not a damned thing the Trumpeteers, Cultists, and Loyalists would be able to do about it.

Glad to see someone from this forum finally admit that there's not a damned thing the anti-Trumps, the anti-Trump cultists, and anti-Trump loyalists will be able to do should Trump become reelected. So pathetic that some are such slow learners...

My my, what an intellectually dishonest retort, lol.

But if Trump were to win reelection, of course there would be nothing the opposition could do against them. I just didn't mention them, so obviously I could not "admit" to that which you claim.

It wasn't.
My reply was meant to show the flip of your side, and remind others of their own hypocrisy and double standards.

No, IF he wins. The question is, what if he doesn't? Wi he walk away and will you take up arms to keep him in office anyway?

Lying about what someone said to try to score some particularly stupid points on the internet does not show anything about anyone else. But hey, tell yourself that you annoyed a non-Trumpist and thus "pwned the libtards".

One of two things:

1. The possibility so overwhelmingly likely that it really isn't worth worrying about any other possibility: he is forcibly removed by law enforcement authorities loyal to the constitution and country.

2. The one so vanishingly small and so late in the game that there really isn't any reason to worry about it or any reason to think something could be done about it: he violates posse comitatus, mobilizes federal armed forces of various sorts, and stages a literal coup. A bloody confusing conflict results.

But there's no reason to think the military or shall we say all armed federal forces is more loyal to Trump than to the constitution. They didn't swear their oaths to Trump specifically.



If anything happens, I suspect it will be him trying to litigate it through the roof while praying for another Bush v. Gore.; a perfect storm of **** in which SCOTUS calls an end to it at just the right time for him. The only way that works is if there are recounts in close flip states and the wrong rulings are made at the wrong times.

Though the trump tweets provide insight to who and what he really is and excellent entertainment. There are moments that if Twitter were to kill his account watching Trump's head explode would be Priceless.

What is my side again?

lol

Your reply is just the status quo Republocrat defense of saying "but...but...but...the otherside" nonsense. It's why we're in this mess.

I know you detest Trump and think Biden is a better choice so you're not exactly sitting in the middle of the fence, my friend.
 
A bunch more people will turn into Rush and Hannity now. They will inform the public of Trump's "truths".

As a fan of the 1st, I find this latest development very saddening. Anyone should be allowed to talk, to advertise, to opine without being censored. That's what this amounts to. Any candidate can and will spread information, nonsense, false promises. I wish it weren't so.
Every administration is very selective with information, and they always twist it to their benefit. That is nothing new, and it didn't start with Trump.

Biden is the better choice, this is true. It's a sad state of our Republocrat Oligarchy. However, even though Biden is better than Trump, he's not good enough for my vote. I don't plan on voting for Biden. Read the lean. Some of us mean it.

Good post. If elected, I suspect Biden wouldn't even be running the show but rather serve as a front. I suspect the same of Trump.

Choosing one over the other is "siding". You choose Biden over Trump. Nothing wrong admitting this either. To each their own favorite of the two who are in it to win it.

I don't care if you don't vote for either Biden or Trump but you do favor Biden over Trump and that's undeniably coming from what you choose to share and post to the forum.

Have a nice evening.

I'm not voting for Biden, so obvioulsy I'm not "siding" with him. I'll condemn his presidency as I did Obama and Trump's.

Biden might be a slightly better smelling turd, but he's still a turn. I think that partisans cannot understand this thinking. Because for them, it's the faux dichotomy where it can only be one or the other, they cannot envision a third. So they try to force everything into their partisan buckets, even if it's not logical, or rational, or rooted in reality in the least.

But that is how partisans keep excusing their support of the Status Quo. If there's some other answer, it sorta blows their "lesser of two evils" argument out of the water.

I'm not a fake libertarian, claiming the ideology but playing the GOP fan boi. Those who vote GOP consistently but try to claim libertarianism are just GOP Partisans cosplaying. Might as well go to Nan Desu Kan. lol

But you do side with Biden over Trump so in that respect, you are showing partisanship.

In so much that, sadly, he'd be less embarrassing. But I'm not voting for him, so I don't side with either Biden or Trump. And that's the reality. I don't discount voting for a Republocrat should the Republocrats accidentally put up someone pretty damn stellar. But y'all ain't got a track record for that. So I won't hold my breath.

I don't vote for a president to be my moral compass so I can put up with embarrassment.
You did say that you favor Biden to win over Trump so when I say you side, that's exactly what I mean by you favor one over the other.

We get the government we deserve. As a libertarian, I think you agree with this.
Trump is a symptom of what's gone wrong in DC, but when this point is brought up, we only get more Trump blaming.... People don't want to fix anything. They want status quo, more of the same.
