These guys are just racist and weird. Hey, HoyaTalk "Republicans" any comment? Or has the cat (or dog) got your tongue??? đ Trump pushes false claims about migrants eating dogs in Springfield, Ohio Former president Donald Trump on Tuesday doubled down on a false and dehumanizing claim â pushed by his running mate and some Republicans â that immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, who came into the country during the Biden-Harris administration are injuring and eating Americansâ pets. âIn Springfield, theyâre eating the dogs. The people that came in, theyâre eating the cats. Theyâre eating â theyâre eating the pets of the people that live there,â Trump said at the ABC News debate between him and Vice President Kamala Harris. âAnd this is whatâs happening in our country. And itâs a shame.â When moderator David Muir pushed back, saying that the city manager of Springfield has said there were no credible reports of such claims, Trump refused to concede. The escalation of the baseless and bizarre assertion came a day after Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), Trumpâs running mate, shared a post on X in which he cited unnamed âreportsâ claiming that people in the town west of Columbus âhave had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldnât be in this country.â Before the debate Tuesday, Trump also posted on his social media platform AI-generated images of himself with various animals, seemingly a reference to the Springfield claim. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/09/10/trump-immigrants-eating-dogs-springfield-ohio-fact-check/It was actually worse than this. IIRC Trumpâs response when Muir told him that the city manager had debunked this claim was to say âwell I saw someone on TV say thatâ or something to that effect. It was one of the saddest, most ignorant responses I have actually ever heard any politician make. Basically said âI am unable and unwilling to determine the facts behind anything I see come out of the magic information square that many wise people call âTVââ. He is in an intellectual flyweight. Flyweight might be giving him too much credit.

And he brought Laura Loomer with him. In additional to being an all around terrible person, she is also a 9/11 truther who stated as recently as last year that 9/11 was âan inside jobâ. Trump has no reverence for anything, no empathy, no compassion. He desecrates everything.

Trump has no reverence for anything, no empathy, no compassion. He desecrates everything. You can't expect Trump to care. He's gotten money from the Saudis. That's FAR more important to him than any people dying or any attack on our country. And, it will ever be thus. Not to mention, on the day, he had trouble masking his excitement that one of his buildings may be the tallest in downtown after the towers fell. A bigger P.O.S. you'd be hard-pressed to find.

I'm just wondering how many people Trump is trying to pay to eat some cats and some dogs and talk about it on TV right now.
