U.S. President Donald Trump seemingly discussed the idea of foreign powers taking out California’s most populated cities while delivering a speech at a Republican rally at the Pinnacle Bank Expo in Grand Island, Nebraska Monday evening.

TRAITOR

I mean, is this how treason works historically? It's only widely accepted after the fact? Like, when you're in it and actively experiencing it most people don't acknowledge it?

That can't be it. People have been executed for treason. Why the fuck are we so bad at this?

    I'm glad he's doing these things so that everyone is reminded that all of them are like this. They're radicals. It needs to be crystal clear so that all of us know what to do.

    this is the president sworn to defend usa soil? impeachment required and jail asking for murder and genocide of the united states citizens out in the open. holy kuf the epstein class is so delusional. besides east coast closer than west coast.

    and the people that clap for the murder/genocide of millions of americans by the president in this case. what are these people. after the impeachment definitely need to investigate and jail all of these people actually not even people murders to be or already murders.

    let them take out mara lago and other places trump owns. not that I would ever suggest foreign powers who wants to hurt trump to hit things he owns but it does make the most sense and would be the most effective.

    In the immortal words of Dwight Schrute, “Whenever I’m about to do something, I think, ‘Would an idiot do that?’ And if they would, I do not do that thing.” I don't imagine the people in charge in Iran are not only stupid enough to attack the seats of power of their foe, let alone stupid enough to attack the locations their foe suggests.

    DC really is a place without a culture. It's the playground for the influential.

    Because of his direct intervention along the upper elements, if it was easy for him to do it'll be easy to purge. If it's not murder is always an option.

    The fact that an institution allows to be controlled by a fuck like trump means the institution should be destroyed. So fuck the Smithsonian and all the cowards that work there. Hope it all burns down

  • While I'd agree with someone with any other title it's a hell of a lot harder to counter the president especially with groups based in DC since there's no state level institutions to work as a buffer. Also just shooting the president is quite hard so the violent counter barely exists.

    Also he fired a lot of higher ups outright, the Smithsonian was hit particularly hard by Musk and his fuckboys. Even still a lot of the Smithsonian especially the elements based outside of DC are resisting as best as they can, sorta similar to park services. The problem is it's scattered and not talked about.

    site won't load, but if the threat is Iran, for any range/payload balance, they'll be satisfied with (closer) eastern seaboard reach.

    Dear Iran, you can take DC and/or Mar a lago. Whenever he’s at one it the other idk just wish him like the bug he is. You’d probably be cheered for it by like everyone lol

    This idiot doesn't know where Iran is. He doesn't know the world is round. He doesn't know Mar-a-Lago is closer than California to Iran. It is literally easier to target him than it is LA.

    At this point, why is California even in the US? Calexit, Pacifica, Cascadia, whatever you want to call it, now.

    Because we fought a civil war over that sort of thing? States can't just secede just because they feel like it. No president is going to also roll over and let that happen on their watch - many lives were lost to preserve the union and the only way that's going to change is if many more lives get lost.

    The only way to exit the USA as a state is revolutionary war and winning that war. for CA that would require all the military bases in CA to outnumber the rest of the country AND for all the personnel on those bases to side with and fight with CA or for some other military force to capture all those bases, than bases all over the US, at that point, winning the war would be totally destroying the US government and military, meaning CA would then become the ruling body of the USA, so the necessary methods won't really meet the desired outcome, you can't stop being a state, we fought a whole war about this, you can only exit with war, and winning means becoming the governing body of the US, so if CA really wants to leave, it's gonna cost a lot of money and lives and it's never going to work out the way you want it to.

    He also kept going on about the drug + nuclear bomb combo factories. He has always been a nutter but lately he's going the rallies even by his own incredibly low standards.

    Yeah, during the start of COVID, I think it was either Trump himself or his chief of staff who said that COVID was a blue state thing, basically saying that it wasn't worth doing anything about as long as it was killing Democrats.

    I'm sure there are other examples, but that one was famous. This is just the kind of inhuman statement that you expect from Trump.

    Ah yes, "let them take out Los Angeles," a city that would rank as the 19th highest GDP if it was its own country. A city that alone contributes 4+% of the USA's economic output. Great strategy, Commander in Soiled Briefs.

    “With the war it’s just artificial, it’s a little bit high, it’s a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe. They could take out a city. Let ‘em take out Los Angeles. Let ‘em take out San Diego,” Trump said, drawing cheers from the crowd. “This is a very small price to pay and it’s going to be over very soon. It’s essentially almost over with.”

    Every time I think my faith in humanity couldn't be shaken further, I find ways to be surprised.

    It's a crowd that would actually go to a Trump rally in 2026. Don't hinge your faith in humanity on self selected bad people.

    Is anyone doing any kind of facial recognition on any of the shots of the crowds that get out? Any bets on how many in the crowd are part of the traveling circus?
