Former president Donald Trump disseminated on social media on Friday an image of President Biden with his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.
The image can be seen about halfway through a 20-second video that Trump posted on his Truth Social site. The post says it was recorded Thursday on Long Island, where Trump traveled this week to attend a wake for a recently killed police officer.
In the video, two trucks decorated with giant Trump flags and altered American flags are driving on a highway. On the tailgate door of one of the trucks is the image of Biden lying horizontally, bound and gagged.
Trump has a history of sharing and promoting violent images featuring his perceived enemies.
Huh? I didn’t make any accusations.
If you’re not even capable of basic reading comprehension what are you even doing here
If you believe the things mentioned in the original comment have taken place just in the past three years or are the sole responsibility of Joe Biden, I would encourage you to… well, let’s be honest, it’s probably too late for you. I wish I could help you but I’m not an educator and don’t have the time or inclination to re-educate the poorly educated.
But just to reiterate, strongly, I believe four more hours of Trump is literally worse than all the things mentioned that may or may not have to do with Joe Biden. You can disagree with that. I realize it’s controversial.
I didn’t think a Trump presidency was going to be that big of a deal at first but I was sorely wrong. It’s by no means a stretch to imagine another Trump presidency, given the tone of this country and congress and judges, will be the undoing of the United States. Our democracy has failed. The oath our legislators have taken is worthless. They have all (all - dems included) put party over country.
And I will say it’s not Trump whom I blame - it’s the voters. What I am absolutely unable to comprehend is how anyone could possibly ever consider Trump for President of the United States, let alone vote for him. It’s depressing that our culture has gotten to this point. Rather than educate and better ourselves, we choose stupidity. We choose freedom to be idiots ruled by fascism. We’re regressing while other countries are evolving.
Biden might not fix what’s broken but Trump very well make break everything it means to be American. So, for me, there’s no choice.
shut the fuck up genocide lover
Genuinely, nobody gives a shit about your personal opinion on voting, not only has nobody asked you about it, it’s incredibly rote and predictable. You claimed there were lies and exaggerations - quit dodging and address your accusation with specifics.
Libs never engage with specifics. That’s why their favorite dodge is to claim something is “complicated” and “needs nuance”
Biden has funded a genocide and oversees an government which completely sold out to corporate interests, the military industrial complex, and the prison industrial complex. They watched big pharma kill thousands in the opioid epidemic. They bailed out the banks after the great financial crisis, while the middle class was left to die.
Every congress member relies on corporate funding for campaigns. They can literally hold stock in the companies they regulate. Those corporations’ interests are completely opposite of the interests of the working class.
I couldn’t care less if some feckless oaf posts a picture of a US figurehead in such a position.Nothing on this list is specific to Biden’s presidency.
Every (modern) US government / congress has funded Israel, the military industrial complex, the prison industrial complex. These have always been gigantic concerns and now you’re looking at this president and blaming him??
Current events aside, Trump was FAR more supportive of Israel than any other president this century, of not ever. I mean, you think shit’s bad now? Imagine if Trump were president during this war.

Both Biden and Trump have taken positive steps towards solving the opioid crisis.

The “middle class” has literally been dying since the early 1970s when productivity and wages started to diverge. The death of the middle class sits firmly on the shoulders of Republicans who oppose federal minimum wages and more regulations on Wall Street, corporations, and consumer protections. So, to blame Biden’s presidency on the death of the middle class is just not based in reality at all.

That tells me that this person is not fit to be the leader of the country where I reside. I have no problem with Joes and Janes doing it (I’m 100% in support of this) but I personally hold my presidential candidates to a higher moral value than the rest of the public. That also includes holding the current president and congressional leaders to account when they don’t voice their condemnation of mass civilian casualties. However, given the two choices we’ve got, frustratingly, there’s not much of a choice.
Nothing on this list is specific to Biden’s presidency.
So, when pressed over and over again to simply identify the “lies”, the best you come up with is that it’s all true but it’s also true about other presidents?
Does anyone in your life take you seriously?
Buddy, are you feeling okay? Do you know where you are and what day of the week it is? Blink twice if you need help.
You may not get it now, but hopefully you will someday
but I personally hold my presidential candidates to a higher moral value than the rest of the public.
Just wanted to add, no you fucking don’t, because you’re willing to forgive Joe Biden for genocide. I wouldn’t forgive the average person for that, but since you’re fixated on Trump you’re willing to vote for genocide.
You are well beyond delusional. It’s sad and frightening how many people have been lost to these cults of disinformation and warped realities.
Surely you realize you’re a clown, right?
Okie doke. I’m a clown who doesn’t have his head buried in a narrative chosen by my echo chamber.
I will forgo any of my liberal socialist ideals if Biden wants to do whatever it takes
This was you.
but I personally hold my presidential candidates to a higher moral value than the rest of the public.
This is you lying in light of what you said in that first quote.
Own your skullduggerous, chronically-lying settler-assed horseshit with your WHOLE CHEST.
Why aren’t people understanding this? A more right leaning Biden is preferable over Trump. This is extremely easy.
your exaggerations and lies
Coward
How are they lying?
Yes the fuck you did
your exaggerations and lies
Own your dogassery with your whole chest
