Reddit Bans Trump Page For Repeated Rules Violations | Talking Points Memo

This observation is most important.

The Grift and the magic of it is the idea that "EVERYBODY’S DOIN’ IT!!!"

A failing AND DESERTED grifter is definitely unappealing

OT I would like to hire the best AdMan/PR/Hustler on the Planet with these instructions:

“Here’s the drill on Donald Trump. Make him into a Loser.”

It’s like the whole country finally said We’ve had it with you, motherfucker, we can’t wait to vote you out, we’re running you out.

We just want him out of our lives.

And I think they’re starting to cut off the lifeline to tRump that Putin has extended through so many social media sites here by Russian bots and people doing Russia’s dirty work to prop up tRump and blast his opponents. The amount of media propaganda online in the last presidential election was insane.

Maybe the bubble has finally started to burst, especially with news of Putin wanting to kill our soldiers. Trying to interfere with our election apparently wasn’t good enough, but trying to cash in by killing our troops? That really is beyond the pale.

It’s beyond the pale on top of killing us. The pandemic is the one thing that no amount of spin, of smears, of lying about can touch. He could not make it go away - it has just gotten worse. And he gets progressively more incompetent as it does.

Can we use…

“communities and users that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability.”

…to ban him from CNN & MSNBC?

I think The Lincoln Project is doing a pretty good job on that front.

The buzzword that pops up with racists is one that often people overlook:

"majority’

They truly believe that…it also excuses the wedding of their thoughts and deeds with “majority rule”.

Trumpists from minute ONE have never been the majority of this country.

That sub got more leeway than any other sub has ever gotten on reddit. It was already dead anyway, most users moved on to r/conservative or other subs when it got quarantined. Chappo tap house also broke rules but not nearly on the scale of TD. Hell it was a joke (and one that they accepted) of CTH posters that they would get banned whenever TD did just to balance the narrative from reddits admins. Both deserved to go, but TD got so much more leeway over the years it was obvious that reddit felt them too much of a political hot potato to touch. They claim to be the ‘victims’ while getting special favaroable treatment.

Will be interesting to see what new sub they invent for their alts to post in.

I suppose it would be good if Trump decides not to run for re-election or steps down. But I’d sure like to see him trounced in November.

Sure sign Trump is on the ropes. I admit I am enjoying the show.

They are trying to get their stories straight.

“Based on my reporting trying to confirm the New York Times’ excellent story it’s clear in late March you had senior U.S commanders, senior civilian intelligence officials, in effect pounding on the door of the White House saying we need to do something about this, we need to come to a conclusion about what damage the Russian program is doing, we need to reassess our programs in Afghanistan and they couldn’t get an answer,” he reported. “To this day there’s not an answer, there’s not a real response. Was this because the president was briefed and did nothing or because he wasn’t briefed because people were afraid to give him bad news and kept it to themselves? I don’t know.”

Well Jim, apparently you have a lot of experience ignoring criminal activity. Why does the possibility of trump doing same seem improbable. Huh, Jim? JIm?

Maybe some of them will go to VOAT like last time with the same hilarious results.
