Donald Trump has a serious Puerto Rico problem " in Pennsylvania. Many Puerto Rican voters in the state are furious about racist and demeaning comments delivered at a Trump rally. Some say their dismay is giving Kamala Harris a new opening to win over the state's Latino voters, particularly nearly half a million Pennsylvanians of Puerto Rican descent. Evidence of the backlash was immediate on Monday: A nonpartisan Puerto Rican group drafted a letter urging its members to oppose Trump on election day. Other Puerto Rican voters were lighting up WhatsApp chats with reactions to the vulgar display and raising it in morning conversations at their bodegas. Some are planning to protest Trump's rally Tuesday in Allentown, a majority-Latino city with one of the largest Puerto Rican populations in the state.

---- getting real, now.

Yeah.

Fmr Pres Trump and his campaign seem to be trying to deflect conversations away from the comments spoken at the trump rally at MSG.

Change the discussion topic to something, anything, else.

I saw Trump trying to call that KKK rally a "Lovefest!" He really is insane!

"Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe whose
performance really pissed a lot of
people off... which is strange considering
he employed the typically bulletproof
strategy of insulting Puerto Ricans
while in New York"

First they came for the Childless Cat Ladies
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Childless Cat Lady

Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the 'Ricans
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a 'Rican

Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

apologies to Pastor Niemoller... although since it's about Nazis, there wasn't much change needed

I'm calling it the Jokestown Massacre, where MAGA committed mass political suicide.

Yeah.

Fmr Pres Trump seems to think that his hate-filled rallies are lovefests, filled with people who worship him.

Though, in a way, he may be correct in that attribution.

They ARE lovefests for him and what he espouses.

... The song's theme is inspired by the Spanish Civil War, and the idealism of Welsh volunteers who joined the left-wing International Brigades fighting for the Spanish Republic against Francisco Franco's military rebels.

The song takes its name from a Republican propaganda poster of the time written in English and displaying a photograph of a child killed by the Nationalists, under a sky filled with bomber aircraft, with the song's titular warning written at the bottom.[3] ...
