Musk Gives Epic SideEye as Trump Asks If Booster Can Be Reused After Crashing in Massive Fireball
Comments
Think it's worth quoting that article.
"Former President Donald Trump has returned to a time-honored tradition of his: citing junk online polls to claim he was the clear winner of a presidential debate that scientific polls found he lost.
He did it in 2016 after his debates against Hillary Clinton. He did it in 2020 after he debated Joe Biden. And he did it again on Wednesday after facing off against Vice President Kamala Harris the previous night.
He wrote on social media on Wednesday afternoon: “Every Poll has us WINNING, in one case, 92-8, so why would I do a Rematch?”
“We won the debate according to every poll — every single poll, I think,” Trump told reporters later in the afternoon."
Facts First: Trump’s claim is false. As of Thursday morning, every major scientific poll about the debate — every poll that used random sampling techniques to try to obtain a representative picture of US public opinion — had found that Harris won. The polls in which most respondents said Trump won were unscientific junk polls — open questions posted online — that allowed an unlimited number of people to click and respond no matter how old they are or what country they live in, making the results useless as a measure of US public opinion.
I'm actually surprised he never justified it by saying "I saw it on TV" or "I read it in the newspapers".
PS - a great example of "sense-checking". Anyone who actually WATCHED the debate, & observed Ms Harris playing him like a fiddle, would insta know he got made to look the complete & utter racist fool that he is.
Talk about running scared!
She is not an immigrant.
She is not from Haiti.
She doesnt live in Springfield.
She was born in America, has lived there all her life, and pleaded not guilty due to insanity.
‘Eating the cats’: Truth about Trump’s disturbing migrant claim
Viral post on community Facebook group
The claim that Haitian migrants in Springfield are eating pets originated from a social media post first shared on a local community Facebook group.
“Warning to all about our beloved pets & those around us!! My neighbour informed me that her daughters friend had lost her cat,” the user, whose name has been blacked out, claimed.
“One day she came home from work, as soon as she stepped out of her car, looked towards a neighbours house, where Haitians live, & saw her cat hanging from a branch, like you’d do a deer for butchering, & they were carving it up to eat.
“I’ve been told they are doing this to dogs, they have been doing it at Snyder park with the ducks & geese, as I was told that last bit by Rangers & police. Please keep a close eye on these animals.”
The post was picked up by conservative users with huge followings on X and spread like wildfire online without a shred of evidence.
Springfield Police told the News-Sun they were aware of the social media post, but said it’s “not something that’s on our radar right now.”
Another local made a similar claim during a City Commission meeting on August 27.
“Bro, they’re in the park grabbing up ducks by their necks and cutting their heads off and eating them,” the 28-year-old claimed, imploring the commission to rein in the migrants.
Earlier this week, conservative outlet the Federalist shared audio of a call made to a police from a man who claimed to have seen a group of Haitian migrants allegedly carrying four geese in Springfield.
“I’m sitting here. I’m riding on the trail. I’m going to my orientation for my job today, and I see a group of Haitian people. There was about four of ‘em. They all had geese in their hands.”

Stop ignoring the question (and hoping it goes away )
Why had CNN never broadcast a Trump rally live before or since the assassination attempt in Butler, PA.
Not going to let the question be ignored...ever...
Don't think for one moment that it was a coincidence.
The level of stupidity to accept that answer would be breathtaking beyond belief.
How is it that the rally in Butler was the first and only CNN televised live Trump rally?
The answer is obvious; and not answering will not make the question go away.
Furthermore, the Harris campaign insisted upon live "fact checking" of Donald Trump during the debate.
ABC News "fact checked" Trump at least five times and did not fact check Harris once, despite the Democratic candidate telling provable lies, such as the "fine people hoax" and the blo*dbath hoax."
The whistleblower signed the affidavit in New York and has sent a copy to Speaker Mike Johnson, the notarized document states.
The unnamed individual states that he or she is in possession of secret recordings that will prove that ABC News rigged the presidential debate.
ABC News committed election interference. This is a MASSIVE scandal.
Elon Musk, the billionaire king of bad takes, came up with a new one to cement his reign on Sunday night.
Responding to a second potential assassination attempt on Donald Trump’s life, the X owner questioned why no one was trying to kill the Democratic president and vice president.
“And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala,” he posted, adding a thinking-face emoji.
A near-instantaneous firestorm of criticism predictably followed, with several people telling him to “delete your account” and others tagging the U.S. Secret Service’s X account.
“This is literally incitement,” the grassroots action group DemsMight wrote, while others pointed out that the post was grounds for the revocation of Musk’s government contracts, including a pair of NASA contracts worth roughly $4 billion that his company SpaceX won in 2021.
Others took the opportunity to clown on Musk. “Another example of why your children hate you,” the actor Billy Baldwin observed.
The New York Times reporter Dave Itzkoff remarked dryly, “and they say this site has advertising problems.”
