Shaye Moss

In case anyone missed it.

Shaye Moss staffed an election office in Georgia. Then she was targeted by Trump

@margaretms2

No one here has touched it, as far as I can tell.

I was curious to see how that could be both-sided. The President (and his gallery of broken strangeloves) targeted totally innocent private citizen(s), based on a total lie, repeatedly bringing her up in his conversation with Raffensperger. and slandering/defaming her. Is there a precedent for a President doing this?

If you can’t deflect to Babbitt or ‘both sides’ it, best to just ignore it.

You seen the price of gas?

Damn.

@Camp

Months?

Yes. He started well before the election. Amped it up knowing he lost. Crescendo on count day.

@Camp

Frenzy?

Dude. Yes, a frenzy. 2,000 MAGAs lost their collective minds on 1/6.

@Camp

There were legit and significant issues with the pandemic infused vote.

No. There was a narrative causing perception. Building a context. There were no “issues” meriting going outside the legal system. There was a mob refusal to accept an outcome.

@Camp

Having stated this…How I wish Trump had embraced the result and moved forward with a positive message and an immediate eye to 2024 and most importantly to let his supporters know that the election is a short term and can be corrected soon with a new vote and better rhetoric.

Me too.

@Camp

Trump is getting there now. Helped in a large part by the Biden skill of ruining literally everything he attempts.

I disagree. He is obsessed.

@Camp

Trump does get to say… not me . He did not call for more than a protest and did not use surrogates and his ineloquent ear chewing for votes is not of any investigative merit either.

No, he doesn’t. He created the context. Intentionally. Whether you want violence or not is a moot point when you create a mob and aim it. He knew he had fanatics in MAGA. He reveled in it.

@Camp

This was and still is about his supporters as much as him.

He created his supporters.

@Paul_Thomson

@Jezcoe

The officer who shot her was on the other side of the barricade protecting Congress from violent rioters.

So, why were no other protesters shot?

There was a great deal of restraint that day.

Bull ■■■■ . There was a great deal of fear, panic and “officer safety.” Failed state. Failed to maintain order.

And probably some “let them tear some stuff up so we can use ut later” - that got out of hand.

@JayJay

Any discussion on the treatment of Shaye Moss and her mother?

I want to see Trump’s and Giuliano’s behavior with regards to them rationalized.

My guess is her testimony was either ignored by Trump supporters or assumed to be untruthful.

Her and Freeman should file a civil suit and bankrupt both of them.

[WuWei]

Revenge.

[thinkingman]

@WuWei

Trump purposely constructed a context and drove them into a frenzy - for months.

this is the ■■■■ that pelosi is saying

[thinkingman]

@Jezcoe

@thinkingman

and you cant blame a president for kooky things his followers do

If Biden were to take the exact same actions that Trump took, I am sure that you and I would be in agreement on quite a few things

i would say this (and i repeat)

you cant blame a president for kooky things his followers do

notice there’s no D or R in there

[tnt]

@WuWei

Revenge.

Nah. Accountability. Deterrence. And in this case, the truth.

[Orygun]

@thinkingman

Its true even if you hate the politician saying it.

You can unless your memory is poor:

Kevin McCarthy: “I think it will pass (Democratic efforts to remove Trump by impeachment) and it will be my recommendation that he resign.”

Mitch McConnell: “The Democrats are gonna take care of the son of a bitch for us.” “If this isn’t impeachable, I don’t know what is.”

Lindsey Graham: “Trump and I, we’ve had a hell of a journey,” the senator said after the riot. “I hate it to end this way. Oh my God, I hate it… All I can say, is count me out, enough is enough.”

No, it’s revenge porn. You don’t even know what “accountability” means.

You want your pound of flesh because you are outraged.

@thinkingman

Blaming Ashli Babbitt?

[tnt]

Nope. I want the laws of the land followed. And I want the truth to come out so people don’t believe lies about the election again.

[BraveGear]

No, what you want is for your opinion to be accepted as the truth. You are unwilling to consider you may be wrong.

[tnt]

The election wasn’t stolen.

That’s not an opinion.

[WuWei]

@tnt

Nope. Plain ol’ revenge porn. Vindictive.

If it was a Dem you’d be washing it away. In fact you have.

[BraveGear]

Just a follow up, what does the Law of The Land you claim you want followed say about riots, looting, arson, rape, and murder?

What does the “law of the land” say about taking over parts of cities, blocking traffic and access, burning police cars and causing general civil disruption?

You know, like we have seen with Antifa and BLM over the last few years.

[tnt]

Like what?
