Doc Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 (edited) 13 minutes ago, Bermuda Triangle said: I don't know if you're (or "your", in MAGA parlance) being serious here. Are you being purposely obtuse in ignoring the part of the report which stated that the family had not heard from Trump? It's almost comical at this point. Biden didn't call them. If you have proof he did, please share. Failing that, there is no proof he called them. And why would he have? It was politically inconvenient for him to put a spotlight on it. Yes they haven't heard from Trump...yet. Do you think they/someone will issue a press release if/when he does? Edited July 16 by Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phypon Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 For the "Trump went golfing" crowd, check this out. If you have contrary proof otherwise, please post it. https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2024/07/fact-check-video-does-not-show-trump-playing-golf-on-july-14-2024.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like everything Trump-related, if he does reach out to the family, it will be garish and tacky - I'd fully expect him to make a spectacle of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason people don't like "whataboutism" is because it points out their hypocrisy and they can't handle it. But here's your chance to prove me wrong. If you can find me proof that he called Riley's family, much less within 48 hours of her death, I'll admit I was wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irv Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 You trolls are a joke. The dude almost had his head blown off Kennedy style. If he wants to go golfing or muther f*cking anything he wants - let him do it. You are pathetic losers. What a mess. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the thing: I couldn't care less (again, in MAGA speak, "could care less") whether you admit that you were wrong. You made an unfounded statement, and couldn't back it up. 5 minutes ago, BillsFanNC said: Yep. He also has since said he was wrong to do so.

Doc Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Just now, Buftex said: So the widow is lying? She said that Biden called. She refused the call...said she hadn't heard from Trump...yet. I suspect Trump will have her at the RNC coronation. I wasn't talking about Biden calling the widow. Laken Riley's parents. And yes, I think he'll do something for them eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How should Trump handle contacting the widow? Should he contact her or should he not contact her and how should he contact her in your opinion that would not be made to look like a spectacle? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitler was anti-communist, so you should actually be flattered that Trump is compared to Hitler. It means he is a true fighter of the red scourge and should be celebrated....

He could have contacted her already, privately, and the last two pages of this thread would have existed. But, it appears that he chose not to, for whatever reason.

That doesn't mean he won't ever. I would say if we don't hear within the next week or so, he won't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
