this. this is why the deplatforming of a single political leader is confusing.
if trump can calm down the fringe elements, that's what he needs to do. gagging him from ever reaching that base is counter productive.
one day..we will all be looking back at these events and scratch our heads. this course of action makes no sense. its all very strange and surreal. irrational.
- lumpenprole 6y agoYes, after four years of the Trump administration, this is what we'll scratch our heads about. This is what will seem strange and surreal and irrational. Absolutely.
- xpe 6y ago> if trump can calm down the fringe elements, that's what he needs to do. On what basis do you think Trump has the interest in calming the fringe elements? And if he did have the motivation, on what basis do you think he would be successful?

You are aware he said for everyone to go home and he condemned the violence? https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/trump-condemns-violence-at-us-capitol-in-strongest-possible-terms-spokeswoman/story-CMYeV2i8SqKQuTIJbiBNqK.html https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/trump-condemns-vio...
- grzm 6y ago> "if trump can calm down the fringe elements, that's what he needs to do." Trump has never given any indication that he would do this if he could. He's had plenty of opportunities to call out bad behavior and has been at best equivocal when's he's gestured in that direction. You're right, that it is strange and surreal.
