Typical media misrepresenting what he said! - a dumbass

[u/ripzeus → u/Rufuz42]

Remember the B is silent, a lot of people don't know the B is silent in dumbass.............................

I don't want hear this pedophile speak anymore...

[u/leamanc → u/Rufuz42]

How dare the media quote Dear Leader verbatim!

[u/OnlyFiveLives]

They're still waiting for the marching orders on what he ACTUALLY meant.

[u/Cornasium → u/OnlyFiveLives]

It always goes from “he’s just joking!” to eventually, “he’s right, get pwned liberals!”

[u/john_the_quain → u/Cornasium]

Yes, it’s always “oh my god, you’re overreacting…” to them wearing a shirt commemorating him actually doing said thing and they have selective memory over the entire affair.

[u/Eloquent-Raven → u/OnlyFiveLives]

Ya know, for a guy who "tells it like it is", there seems to be a legion of people ready to translate his ramblings into coherent sentences. The Trump Translators i call them.

[u/santaclaws01 → u/OnlyFiveLives]

The current spin seems to be "It's just a hypothetical about what Iran could do if we weren't attacking them"

[u/Bolognahole_Vers2 → u/OnlyFiveLives]

They've received them. He was talking about gas prices, apparently.

[u/HuudaHarkiten]

One of them is doing the "read the full quote" thing:

to paraphrase 'high gas prices are a very small price to pay for dealing with iran. iran could take out los angeles or san diego, so dealing with this now with high gas prices are a small price to pay'.

So... That means that the gas prices are high because they are dealing with Iran? Right? Because I thought that man said they are high because Ukraine?

So anyway, the guy is all over the place, as usual and nobody cares or understands. I'm glad Ukraine understands and keeps bombing russian oil infra.

[u/metamet → u/HuudaHarkiten]

"let em take out los angeles, let em take out san diego"

ackshully what he means is by "let them" is "they could".

these gaslighting fucks.

[u/HuudaHarkiten → u/metamet]

I guess that goes hand in hand with the contradictions, when you can just make up yourself what that man actually meant, you don't have to think about all the knots you've tied.

[u/strange_fellow → u/metamet]

San Diego is home to a Carrier Group, is it not?

ETA: oh, it's the homeport for the US Navy's Pacific Surface Fleet.

[u/ripzeus → u/HuudaHarkiten]

Funny how none of them ask what if Biden or Obama said such traitorous words.

[u/HuudaHarkiten → u/ripzeus]

That would get them banned. Or just false equivalences in the replies.

[u/HuudaHarkiten → u/[deleted]]

I mean the guy completely misinterpreted what he said, left out stuff and changed things.

But I was more focusing on the part about the fuel prices. Others have commented already about how /r/conservative tends to make up shit to defend what the weird orange man said, so I thought I didn't need to point that out in my specific comment.

[u/SirTiffAlot → u/HuudaHarkiten]

That's not even the full quote, they're paraphrasing so they literally aren't using the full quote. He said those cities being bombed would be a small price to pay.

[u/Darkpumpkin211 → u/HuudaHarkiten]

Iran could take out two American cities? Our commander in chief is pathetic, can't even defend our country

[u/Kid_Vid → u/HuudaHarkiten]

Totally makes sense Iran would attack the states the most furthest away and hardest for the to reach, instead of all the Eastern seaboard or any of the numerous allies within 1/4 the range.

[u/Bolognahole_Vers2 → u/HuudaHarkiten]

Because I thought that man said they are high because Ukraine?

I thought it was Bidens fault

[u/Setekh79]

I saw one thread, almost 90% of the posted comments are either auto collapsed, or removed by moderator.

lol, thanks. I kinda forgot about that, set it during covid, sad that it's still relevant in the age of RFK.

[u/stewshi]

Look at how hard they are working to sane wash this shit. Like they are the special trump whisperer

The point Trump was making was that these cities are at risk from Iran and that the U.S. is fighting to prevent Iran from threatening American cities with attacks. He claimed that the economic costs of the war were a "small price to pay" for keeping American cities like LA and San Diego safe,

[u/Kmanvb → u/stewshi]

Genuinely insane that’s their takeaway from ‘let them take San Diego, let them take LA’

[u/Ok_Star_4136 → u/Kmanvb]

I mean, even if you were to ignore the moral implications of this, the amount of revenue these cities produce is enormous..

The GDP of Los Angeles is 1.697 trillion dollars. The GDP of San Diego was 266.9 billion.

Considering the GDP of the entire united states is 32.38 trillion, that means Trump is comfortable dropping the GDP of America by 6% (and killing millions nonetheless) for a fucking grudge..

[u/LordBiscuits → u/[deleted]]

Which is the biggest, presumably Norfolk?

[u/BatJew_Official → u/LordBiscuits]

From the quick research I just did, it appears the base in SD is actually only the 8th largest by personnel. It does appear to be the second largest naval base by personnel tho, with Norfolk being #1.

By land area I couldn't find a list that went beyond 5th but I can't imagine SD will rank all that high compared to the absolutely massive bases we have throughout Texas, Nevada, Arizona, etc. Simply more space to be had out there.

[u/Vyzantinist → u/ripzeus]

I'm pretty sure the point he was making is the exact opposite of what this post implies.

Jfc Trump could say on a televised interview he hopes all Democratic voters die a painful death, and arcon would say "What he meant was, he hopes they live happy and fulfilling lives even if they're poo poo pee pee head libtords."

[u/AstronomerChance1727 → u/stewshi]

Another claim I heard: Those cities can take a lot of pain.
Claim: They say they have high pain tolerance!!
I am a bit confused now by your explanation. Can you also explain how the above two statements fit into your interpretation?

[u/Antique_Rent4343]

so sick of these dishonest fucks trying to pretend everything is taken out of context. he very blatantly tried to rile up his crowd by saying fuck it, if people are gonna bitch about the gas and they’re gonna take one city out let it be los angeles or san diego. That’s the fucking context.

he said what he said. charlie kirk said what he said. they’re afraid to be caught being the vile pieces of shit they are because they know deep down it’s wrong. fuck them and fuck donald trump.

[u/baz4k6z]

It's because arcons have this ability to tell themselves "Ah its just trump being trump" then move on. They don't care that its hypocritical. It means nothing to them because it's "their team"

[u/ripzeus → u/baz4k6z]

Sort by new over there, and what do you know?

Exactly as you said.

I found one, and it's really grotesque.

Of course they won't. They were positively giddy when covid was ravaging NYC amd other blue cities/states, this wouldn't move the needle for those ghouls.

[u/Psianth]

A podcaster gets killed and people aren't wailing and rending their garments enough; "Omg look at the hateful left!"

Trump says specifically that if certain places in the US that didn't vote for him got nuked he wouldn't retaliate, "wink wink"; "..."

Why aren’t we attacking North Korea for their nuclear weapons but attacking Iran because of their

It's funny how many times maga has to explain what Trump means.

[u/defdrago]

At some point, the bots learned that saying "It's taken out of context" and nothing else is enough to placate the smooth brain americans reading social media.

[u/HapticSloughton → u/defdrago]

Alex Jones used that statement as the world's biggest crutch.

Minutes-long statements from him were "taken out of context." He said you had to listen to entire multi-hour broadcasts of his to properly understand his hateful word-vomit. People did, and his words were still terrible, racist, fascist, calling for violence, etc.

It's the refuge of media cowards.

[u/EnergyIsQuantized]

iran should get florida and barron as a ward

[u/Wbino]

These are the same type of people who as part of the South fought a civil war against their country in order to keep people as slaves.
Anyone who is surprised by anything that they say or do are foolish.

[u/MercZ11]

No, you see it's just a joke. Surely they'd be as understanding if a democratic politician made a similar joke about rural America.

[u/notapunk]

Man, I was so distracted by the live streaming of the firing squad I had forgotten about that - and I live in one of those cities. I guess their strategy is working
