Explain the war with Iran, if you think Trump is above innocent civilians dying to further his agenda. W_HAMILTON Sunday #27

So Trump knew in advance a bystander would be killed in Butler? Fiendish Thingy Sunday #30

I'm pointing out the argument that Trump would never sacrifice an innocent life is also ridiculous. W_HAMILTON Sunday #35

No more so than being a citizen of another country thinking you have some say in who Dems nominate in 2028. BannonsLiver Sunday #50

I think you misunderstand... lame54 Sunday #86

The ear was nicked by a bullet. The bullet then hit someone and killed them. Melon Sunday #113

Was it though... lame54 Sunday #117

I think that, after the bullet grazed T's ear, it traveled south and struck the hydraulics of the lift. John1956PA Yesterday #127

Think of who we're talking about. If a bullet grazed his ear, he would have released photos and doctor reports. Scrivener7 Yesterday #131

Yeah, the people who planned to have people killed on 1/6 would absolutely not want someone killed for their false flag themaguffin Sunday #83

So the Proud Boys staged the shooting last night? Fiendish Thingy Sunday #95
