Former president Donald Trump disseminated on social media on Friday an image of President Biden with his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.
The image can be seen about halfway through a 20-second video that Trump posted on his Truth Social site. The post says it was recorded Thursday on Long Island, where Trump traveled this week to attend a wake for a recently killed police officer.
In the video, two trucks decorated with giant Trump flags and altered American flags are driving on a highway. On the tailgate door of one of the trucks is the image of Biden lying horizontally, bound and gagged.
Trump has a history of sharing and promoting violent images featuring his perceived enemies.
Genuinely, nobody gives a shit about your personal opinion on voting, not only has nobody asked you about it, it's incredibly rote and predictable. You claimed there were lies and exaggerations - quit dodging and address your accusation with specifics.
Biden has funded a genocide and oversees an government which completely sold out to corporate interests, the military industrial complex, and the prison industrial complex. They watched big pharma kill thousands in the opioid epidemic. They bailed out the banks after the great financial crisis, while the middle class was left to die.
Every congress member relies on corporate funding for campaigns. They can literally hold stock in the companies they regulate. Those corporations’ interests are completely opposite of the interests of the working class.
I couldn’t care less if some feckless oaf posts a picture of a US figurehead in such a position.
Nothing on this list is specific to Biden's presidency.
Every (modern) US government / congress has funded Israel, the military industrial complex, the prison industrial complex. These have always been gigantic concerns and now you're looking at this president and blaming him??
Current events aside, Trump was FAR more supportive of Israel than any other president this century, of not ever. I mean, you think shit's bad now? Imagine if Trump were president during this war.
Biden + Military Industrial complex
There's two wars going on right now so of course the current president is asking congress to appropriate more money towards those causes.
It was during the Obama administration that the economy was essentially saved so I'm not sure what this has to do with Biden's presidency. The "middle class" has literally been dying since the early 1970s when productivity and wages started to diverge. The death of the middle class sits firmly on the shoulders of Republicans who oppose federal minimum wages and more regulations on Wall Street, corporations, and consumer protections. So, to blame Biden's presidency on the death of the middle class is just not based in reality at all.
So, yeah for me, I'm more concerned about a candidate running for president posting an image of a current president bound up. That tells me that this person is not fit to be the leader of the country where I reside. I have no problem with Joes and Janes doing it (I'm 100% in support of this) but I personally hold my presidential candidates to a higher moral value than the rest of the public. That also includes holding the current president and congressional leaders to account when they don't voice their condemnation of mass civilian casualties. However, given the two choices we've got, frustratingly, there's not much of a choice.
Nothing on this list is specific to Biden's presidency.
So, when pressed over and over again to simply identify the "lies", the best you come up with is that it's all true but it's also true about other presidents?
but I personally hold my presidential candidates to a higher moral value than the rest of the public.
Just wanted to add, no you fucking don't, because you're willing to forgive Joe Biden for genocide. I wouldn't forgive the average person for that, but since you're fixated on Trump you're willing to vote for genocide.
You claimed another user was lying. You dodged and dodged and dodged and finally decided to explain that their "lies" were omitting that other Presidents do the same shit. This is, you'll find, not lying.
You're a fucking clown and I am at this point absolutely certain that everyone in your personal life knows that you're a clown.
Dude. I don’t know what broke you but, on planet earth, claiming that a person did a thing when it was not only not them but someone else is called lying. I am going to inform you that because you reject truth and facts and reality, you are a member of a cult. Your brain has been manipulated for the gain of others. I want you to really think about this. Take the time to review this conversation and the facts presented by all parties. It’s not about me or my opinions; it’s about your ability to perceive reality. I sincerely hope you will take another look at this and take a breath. We’re losing too many people to propaganda and fear mongering.

You're really gonna be this stupid? If I say you posted on the internet, I'm a liar because so did millions of other people?
Holy shit man, log off and go look in a fucking mirror you joke.
Incorrect. Fundamentally incorrect. Fractally incorrect. Trump didn't let 61 Black protestors against the Cop City project that BIDEN drafted, funded, and adamantly stands by, get fucking federally RICO charged. If nothing's done about them, if they're not saved, they will ALL see prison chattel slavery internments of at least 15 years. Not a single Jan. 6th rioter got this treatment. I had more money in my pocket, and a better paying job under Trump. Meanwhile, under Biden, Indeed, Monster, even LinkedIn, all full of scams and fake jobs and if I'm ever unemployed for two years again despite sending out 20 applications a day AND having credentials and degrees out the nose, I'm gonna start chalking outlines of my own.
While we're on the subject of Genocide Joe and his manifold fuckups, Biden just sent/promised 18 billion USD worth of jets and ordnance to Israhell again this morning. Biden's not preferable. He was never preferable, in fact; now he's just wearing his armband JUST as flagrantly as Trump did, will, and probably will again because you people have no interest in actually performing the morals you claim, as a result, no interest in making Biden EARN IT.
There is no way for us to reconcile; no aisle to meet in the middle of. I will not support a genocidal segregationist; especially not a genocidal segregationist who is making NO tangible improvements to the material conditions that the non-elite of this society live under. Death to the settler. Death to his empire.
I won’t get into how the economy is actually the best it’s been in 40 years
Then where are the jobs, peckerwood? Why did it take me two and a half years to land a job with all my accreditation? Why is my partner STILL unemployed despite THEIR search? Why is a week's worth of groceries 300 dollars? Why am I spending nearly as much on gas? Why are houses so prohibitively expensive that I'll be renting a flat literally all my life? Why are used cars the cost of what new cars were ten years ago? You're so full of shit, when they flush you out for your coffin fitting, you'll fit in a goddamned matchbox.
I don’t know where you live or your financial issues or your expertise in things or how competitive your field is.
I know that the vast majority of grocery prices have come back to normal but there are still a handful of segments that are inflated due climate change and disease and anti competitive practices. These prices are likely not going to go down.
As I’m sure you’re aware, no president of the United States has ever had a substantial impact on gas prices. Biden did lower the prices during Covid by dipping into our reserves but that really didn’t amount to more than a half dollar and it was temporary. You can though look towards congressional legislation and their control over vehicle fuel economy. We know that Trump loosened those regulations and the Republican Party believes in the free market choice for consumers to choose what canes best fit their lifestyles.
I know that the vast majority of grocery prices have come back to normal... These prices are likely not going to go down.
Then this is not the 'best economy we've had in forty years' you absolute car exhaust addict. Thanks for proving my point for me. Your only stock in trade is lies, more lies, and pissing on my leg tryna tell me it's raining. Death to the settler; death to his empire. Even balkanization is better than this.
