You think Trump knew this was gonna happen?  If not, then he's not culpable.  I think people see it for what it is --  a nothing burger.

I don’t.  But he should’ve had the foresight to know something like this COULD happen based on who he was letting perform at his event.

this coming from the party who was willing to let Brittany Griner rot in a russian prison because she criticized America and knelt for the anthem.  Who harp on how un-American some politicians are as

Just wasn't the place to say things of that nature. Dude is an idiot for saying those things at that rally. Same as Harris calling Trump Hitler. Wrong for doing that as well.

JD Vance on the painfully unfunny racist “joke” - stop being offended 
 

  • "Maybe it's a stupid, racist joke as you said, maybe it's not. I haven't seen it. I'm not going to comment on the specifics of the joke," he added. "But I think that we have to stop getting so offended at every little thing in the United States of America. I'm just — I'm so over it."

1. The joke wasn’t made at your expense. Personally I don’t care if someone jokes about me or white peoples, but plenty of people would be upset.  

2. for a lot of Puerto Ricans in the US their identity is just about all they’ve got.  They’re not worried about tax rates or abortion, they’re just trying to get by.  This could be something that motivates what is largely an apathetic and disinterested voting base to make it out to the polls.  

Look I agree it shouldn’t have been said givin the magnitude of this election. But all those that heard it that are Puerto Ricans are in the US which means they chose another country over their homeland…. as well they are now better  off.

i ve never been to Puerto Rico, so I can’t speak on it as far as labeling it “garbage” but is it true? Why do so many want to come here and we can say that about a lot of Latin countries.  Why the caravans?????maybe cause their homeland does suck. Maybe their govt is terrible. Etc etc. 

It was a joke that shouldn’t have been said by a comedian while being a guest of the Trump campaign.  Optics are bad but if comedian said this any other time “no headline”   That’s all this is….im sure some will allow this to change their mind🤷‍♂️. It is what it is…..if Harris is elected we have a much bigger issue in this country…..maybe we need to suffer more so more people open their eyes and minds to the terrible ways of liberals

Man, this is as bad as booing God and telling Christians they’re at the wrong rally. Should we tally the Christians by state? Look at the Cuban population here….and they hate Cuba. If they made a joke about Cuba, the only one who would say anything against it would be AOC.

 Cuba is not a U.S. territory.

From the article:  Hispanic voters seem to be laughing off the faux media outrage over the Madison Square Garden rally comedian, showing up for Republicans in big numbers, even in places like traditionally blue Miami-Dade."

That’s propaganda, not a news article.

He doesnt get to determine when a person should feel offended. He doesn't care because the joke is not about him. A hole

People who vote Trump because they don’t like Kamala and democrats.. makes perfect sense. These are normal everyday Americans and nothing wrong with it 

People who actually support Trump? Yikes.. Generally really sucky people. Would not trust them to babysit my kids.

Same concept applies to Democrat party. People who support Kamala, rather than voting anti-Trump, aren’t as terrible human beings as trump supporters one but man clearly aren’t that smart

      Orangefield 65 Livingston 83/FINAL

      Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McnNeese this Friday night at 6pm.

      I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
