“So they’re going to get millions of dollars, but the woman, the wife, this beautiful woman, I handed her the check—we handed her the check—and she said, ‘This is so nice, and I appreciate it, but I’d much rather have my husband.’ Now, I know some of the women in this room wouldn’t say the same,” Trump said.

The roomful of guests, who included casino owner Steve Wynn, businessman Thomas Peterffy, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Representative Byron Donalds, Representative Lauren Boebert, and former Senator Cory Gardner, broke out in laughter. Trump wasn’t done, though.

“I know at least four couples,” Trump said. “There are four couples, Governor [Abbott], that I know, and you’re not one of them. At least four couples here would have been thrilled, actually.”

Hey all you MAGA's on the forum? Do you want Trump mocking you after your death?

[–] BenStrousers (966) 4 months ago

He's not mocking the guy. Put your thinking head on and you'll see.

[–] Martoto (5191) 4 months ago

He's mocking the idea of the widow wanting her murdered husband back.

Trump is exposing the fact the man is just a thing he can exploit and punchline to a joke he can spin in order to make his cult followers applaud him and stroke his ego, rather than as a human being.

He could have said that his own wife would not be saying the same if he had been killed and it would have been just as tasteless and disrespectful to the victim and his widow. But his ego is clearly too fragile to do that.

One case of TDS confirmed.

[–] Martoto (5191) 4 months ago

^^^ Another pathetic ego

[–] BenStrousers (966) 4 months ago

Makes no sense. That's pretty common with you people.

[–] RockAway (1657) 4 months ago

This reply is meaningless. Are you an emotionless drone that you would claim that someone ELSE has a problem because they have a sense of compassion?

[–] BenStrousers (966) 4 months ago

This thread isn't about compassion. You lunatics
are using the man's death as yet another excuse to bash Trump.

Fuck off with your compassion, you don't know the meaning of the word.

[–] RockAway (1657) 4 months ago

It has everything to do with compassion! Character matters. Trump’s character is extremely worrying, that is the reason where there are so many people outraged with the man.

It is terrifying to have people who don’t care about Trump’s character want to put him in charge of everything!

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

I know, Trump is also mocking Corey Comperatore's widow. But everyone knows how much Trump disrespects widows in general.

Surely you are aware that Trump thinks of widows as easy marks and safe targets? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vera_Coking_house#History

Trump.........opens mouth, inserts foot. What a heartless moron Trump is. I'm sick hearing about this.

[–] whynotwriteme (7817) 4 months ago

That's quite a streeeeeetttttccccchhhhh there, Stretch Armstrong! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycumxKt1zFk

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

Stretched so little that it's still a perfect sphere.

[–] RockAway (1657) 4 months ago

Explain to me how it’s a stretch to take what Trump said literally?!

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

I lost my husband last year, and I don't see this as mocking that man, his marriage, or his wife. I look around on social media, and I realize I was lucky to have my husband. I felt that way anyhow, but when I hear how some people talk about their spouses, I can't imagine! There are a lot of people -- men and women -- trapped in completely loveless marriages to utter lice. He's simply referencing those. It has nothing to do with the man who was killed.

No one was being mocked. And if Trump wants to mock me after I'm dead, he's going to have to get in line. My husband came from a whole family of clinical narcissists -- my husband was the sweet and helpful one of the bunch -- and one of a clinical narcissist's favorite tricks is to slander you and destroy your reputation with everyone you think of as your support group. People who really know me won't be fooled by them, and those who are fooled are welcome to be eaten up with anger for the rest of their lives.

Or, as my mother would say to your question of, "Do you want Trump mocking you after your death?" "I'll be long past caring."

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

I have lost a parent. I would not want Trump polluting their memory with anything coming out of his mouth.

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

If he talked about people like my brother, or my late husband's kids by his first wife, who couldn't care less about the death of a parent, and would even be glad if there was a cash settlement involved, he wouldn't be talking about your parent. That's where you screwed up with the analogy.

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

What is it that you know about my parent that makes you think Trump would, or would not, talk about them?

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

Your parents don't actually have anything to do with your opening argument. Now, since you don't have an argument, you're trying to come up with a hypothetical where you can continue your argument about Trump. We get it. You hate him. You hate him so much you will make up stuff to be angry at him for -- things he hasn't even done, like insult one of your parents.

Someone here said that you were insane. I've dealt with genuinely insane people on the old IMDb message boards, so I don't think you're insane. Rather pathetic, but not insane. whynotwriteme gave us a wonderful nickname for you. Our conversation here is done, Stretch. You have nothing of value to add. But please do respond and prove it.

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

You brought my parent into the argument, it is your job to make sense of your claim, not me. I did not make anything up about Trump. It is all there in the OP, Trump's own words.

Yeah, go ahead and run away if you think we're done. It certainly suits the likes of you to avoid a debate.

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

Thank you for proving me right. I made an analogy to try to point out that if Trump talks about other people who are indifferent to their parents dying, he would be talking about those miserable excuses for kids. He would not be talking about your parent, who would have no more to do with that analogy -- which is about other people -- than it would about the man who was killed at the Trump rally where the deranged shooter tried to kill Trump. Trump wasn't mocking the man's wife, nor was he mocking the man.

Trump, as I tried to point out, was talking about people who didn't care about their spouses, and would even be glad to have them bumped off if they could also get a cash reward into the deal. Frankly, Melania flitted through my mind, given some of the looks I've seen her give Trump.

Then you said, "What is it that you know about my parent that makes you think Trump would, or would not, talk about them?" What on earth? "Please speculate about two people whom you do not know, what one might or might not say about the other." Good grief, Stretch! The fantasy segment is where you want to argue about what Trump says about your parent, even though he didn't say a thing about him or her. That was simply an analogy to show whom Trump WAS talking about.

I lost both my parents. What do you know about my parents that makes you think Kamala Harris would or would not talk about them? I don't actually expect you to answer that since it's unanswerable and has nothing to do with whether Trump mocked the man killed at the rally where someone tried to kill Trump.

And remember, Trump's talking about spouses -- wives, in particular. Not the man who was killed.

Now, if you're just going to argue based on missing the point, we ARE done. I'm not into wasting my time with someone who's set on misunderstanding. You misunderstood Trump, and you're justifying it by misunderstanding me. Whether you're doing it on purpose, only you know.

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

I don't know what Harris thinks about anyone's parents. I don't recall her every saying anything about it.

I'm not missing the point. The point is that Trump acts like deaths are a punchline.

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

There ARE people who would be happy for a spouse to die, especially if they got paid a chunk of cash into the bargain. They're called clinical narcissists, and they're truly horrible people -- in contrast to the wife of the man who was killed when Trump was shot by the lunatic trying to kill him.

[–] RockAway (1657) 4 months ago

I’m sorry to hear about your husband. Hope you are doing okay.

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

Thank you.

I have neighbors helping me for his sake. He was loved by everyone but his wretched children by his first wife, and his equally wretched brothers and sisters. Seriously. The brothers and sisters were jealous that he was the only one his parents said, "I love you," to. He was the only one of them that was lovable, from what I could tell. His kids became clinical narcissists like his first wife who left them when they were small so she could run after every man who was willing.

He was warm, giving, gregarious, with an insane sense of humor that could have him up to his waist in sewage and still cracking jokes. He was incredibly patient and amazingly loving. He had the most beautiful eyes! All my girlfriends were so jealous.

I miss him every single day.

[–] RockAway (1657) 4 months ago

I’m glad to get a chance to hear about him and I hope that it brings you joy to talk about what a great man he was.

When I think about the people that I have loved that are gone now and am stuck in the grief of losing them, I like to think of a great Dr. Seuss quote that went something like “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”

Although I think it’s healthy to grieve, it’s a gift that we had the time we did with them and I hope that I will be the kind of person that people miss as well.

Hang in there. There are new adventures in front of you.

[–] [deleted] 4 months ago

What in the actual fuck. You retards will say anything. That was not mocking. JFC. How the hell did you make it this far in life if this is what triggers you?

Since you're on a roll, tell us again how many people were killed on Jan 6th?

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

Since I'm not the one insulting other forum members here, it seems as if you're the one being triggered so badly

"Since I'm not the one insulting other forum members here, it seems as if you're the one being triggered so badly"

Im sure your right.

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

Glad you see it my way.

[–] [deleted] 4 months ago

anytime.

I shouldn’t have insulted you. My apologies.

[–] Ranb (11341) 4 months ago

Thank you.

[–] RockAway (1657) 4 months ago

You wouldn’t even say that it’s distasteful?

[–] robocat893 (16256) 4 months ago

I'll answer. The only person shot and killed on Jan. 6 was Ashli Babbitt. She was a traitor who attempted to break into a secure area where deadly force was authorized. She got what she deserved. It worked too. No other MAGA attempted to break into that area after Babbitt was shot.

[–] [deleted] 4 months ago

Im not biting tonight. You can say whatever outrageous thing you need to say. Alshi Babitt deserved to have her life ended? Sure why not.

[–] robocat893 (16256) 4 months ago

You already bit. If Babbitt wasn't so stupid by believing in Trump's lies about the 2020 election she wouldn't have participated in an insurrection attempt and she would be alive today. Babbitt's blood is on Trump’s tiny hands.

[–] Destinata (3564) 4 months ago

I love how you guys honestly think it was an insurrection. A bunch of 2A supporters go into the Capitol Building to overthrow the government, and they don't shoot it up?

I think anyone who was vandalizing anything should have gotten what the "Summer of Love" rioters should have gotten, but didn't. O, why would those people think no penalties would be attached after watching rioters burning down buildings, and being told it was "mostly peaceful"? And no, I'm not saying the "mostly peaceful" rioters deserved being shot. They should have gotten long prison sentences. But people who were charged with "parading"? While real rioters go free or get bailed out? Please.
