It's neither surprising that Trump is once again trashing someone who is doing or has done military service, nor is it surprising that his followers couldn't give less of a shit while simultaneously saying they "support the troops."
Her husband definitely hit him with the sick burn on Twitter though. lol From the article:
In a rare move, Michael Haley fired back at the former president, posting a meme on Twitter reading, “The difference between humans and animals? Animals would never allow the dumbest ones to lead the pack,” while mentioning Trump’s account in the caption.
Sure, but Trump's followers won't notice and if they do, they won't care. Because Trump's word is law. Even if it contradicts standard Republican dogma. They just hold Trump's contradiction and the dogma in their head at the same time and pretend there isn't a dissonance.
Oh I definitely agree, but sometimes you gotta appreciate the little things.
Trump's words are law, except when he contradicts himself. Then he's just joking. Or it's a genius plan. One of those. Or both.
Or the contradiction never happened because he never said the first thing. Or both things are true.
These people aren't rational.
That's the most basic burn ever
Has anyone seen Meliana lately? Is she deployed somewhere?
It would be funny if Nikki Haley started demanding to see the marriage certificate.
The best part would be that he would go nuts and post the certificate on Truth Social and then she could say, "no, the long form marriage certificate."
Special duty at the pool boy’s apartment
She should just go scorched earth. Fuck decorum, put tiny hands on blast, call trump out as a tiny dick wife-rapist and threaten to beat his ass if he ever grows the balls to face her for questioning her husband like that. That will get her some national attention and trump has no moral ground to stand on for defense.
It would be so satisfying…
Everyone should. I’m tired of people being polite to this orange fuck. Treat him like shit.
Hard to picture that on this platform when you have the hexbear army and lemmygrad fellating him constantly. Horseshoe theory is funny and they get SO mad when you point this out. They can't keep his dick out of their mouth.
I've literally never seen ANY of that happening.
Yeah, as much as those guys are a bunch of authoritarian chuds, bootlickers of a different stripe, they don’t directly support him
Eh, agree to disagree. If you haven't heard them moaning his name it's because their mouths are full of orange micropenis.
I guess pay attention more?
Chris Christie is the only one with enough spine to do that, and he's a shithead in a myriad of other ways.
She needs to go full scorched earth
Guy that has previously mocked and denigrated members of the US Armed Forces mocks and denigrates a member of the US Armed Forces.
Nothing new to see here.
When's the last time anyone saw Melania??
From what I understand she was with her dying mother then her mother actually died. So maybe she's taking a little break? I guess she was with Orange Mussolini at Mara Lago recently though.
I'd love to see Haley play the attacks back and then end it with "...but Mr Trump is missing when it comes to the debate stage. What is he so afraid of?"
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former President Donald Trump used a rally in South Carolina on Saturday to attack rival Nikki Haley in her home state — and to mock the absence of her husband, who is deployed overseas.
Nikki Haley fired back at Trump’s comments later Saturday, saying, “If you mock the service of a combat veteran, you don’t deserve a driver’s license, let alone being president of the United States.”
He appeared in Nevada on Thursday to declare victory in the state’s GOP caucuses before traveling to Pennsylvania, where he addressed a friendly crowd at a National Rifle Association forum Friday.
He plans to host several more campaign events in the state before the February 24 primary, but his team has had a more laid-back attitude toward the contest as it increasingly focuses its attention on the looming general election rematch with Biden.
The campaign has staff spread out across South Carolina’s 46 counties, dispatched mailers touting Trump’s candidacy and deployed top state lawmakers and surrogates — including Gov.
According to multiple conversations with Trump’s advisers, they are eager to use the full weight of the GOP infrastructure, including that of the Republican National Committee, to begin pivoting in earnest toward a general election fight against Biden.
