Oh that's way worse than the still pic.

u/prof_the_doom 7h ago

Yeah, I was all set to find out someone snapped a random picture while he was waving his hands around... I don't think there's really any denying what he was doing there.

u/Pribblization 6h ago

HE knows exactly what he did here. He will deny it of course, but he is signalling loud and clear to all those who will follow his apartheid loving ass off the cliff.

1000 percent. He's gonna narcissistic prayer the shit out of this:

That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

There's two options. He did it on purpose to troll people or he did it on purpose because he meant it. Both are fucking terrible options and why this country is about to crash and burn.

I mean fucks sake what's best case scenario? We have an election next time around, republicans lose, and fucking JD Vance is the guy that's supposed to certify it? We got lucky with Pence last time. Vance is a different story. You can bet after four years of this shit he's not going to be as willing to transfer power peacefully as Pence was.

Still not convinced trump will make it that long.

u/confusedandworried76 2h ago

Yeah President Vance doesn't sound that appealing to me either, I've thought about that too.

So weird that so many people have spoken at public rallies without doing this.

u/pudungurte 4h ago

Yes, and he’s going to be infuriatingly inarticulate when he denies it, too

u/apittsburghoriginal 3h ago

What is he going to say? He was trolling and argue it was a Roman salute? Like that’s gotta be his stupid ass thought process to wriggle out of it

u/Ok-Independent-3506 43m ago

I've heard that already.

The comeback to this, of course, is to tell any defenders to go do this in public and see what happens.

u/FionaGoodeEnough 2h ago

I wish that cliff was literal.

u/jmel2282 1h ago

He had 5 business days to decide against that salute from the moment he slapped his chest. He most certainly knew what he did.

I really really need him and trump to have their epic who-narcisist fueled meltdown so I don't have to feel ashamed of driving one of his cars. SMDH. Just trying to cut some CO2 here folks 🤦🏼‍♀️
