Trump suggests allowing Iran to "take out" LA and San Diego during campaign rally

Gov. Gavin Newsom rebuked President Trump after he appeared to suggest letting Iran "take out" Los Angeles and San Diego if the country developed a nuclear weapon.

"It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe," Mr. Trump said Monday night during a campaign rally in Nebraska. "They can take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego."

Attendees cheered after his suggestion. It was not immediately clear what Mr. Trump meant, but the comments were quickly condemned by Newsom and other California officials.

"After sending the National Guard and Marines to occupy California, Donald Trump is now saying our foreign enemies should 'take out' Los Angeles and San Diego," Newsom wrote on X. "He is deranged and dangerous."

It's a version of the infamous Condoleezza Rice 'we don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud' comment, via Trump's characteristic doltish phrasing. He's a vile, despicable shitbird but he's not stupid enough to actually mean to say 'it's no big deal if we lose a city or two in California.'

Mar a Lago is 1000 miles closer from Iran. Shoot the missiles there.

There were recounts in Michigan 2024 votes. Most states do not give such a simple table, this one was easy to read.

Trump claimed voter fraud in 2020. They found 5 votes from noncitizens.

It doesn't have to be true, it just has to be repeated often enough and for long enough that most people believe it's the truth because it's the only thing they've ever heard about it.

Ladies and Gentlemen, upon information and belief, James TalaFREAKo, who is running for the United States Senate in Texas, is MISSING IN ACTION! No one has seen him for an extended period of time. Where is he? What is wrong with him? Bad rumors are coming out. He should immediately report to a Debate Stage against Ken Paxton, who is ready, willing, and able, one of the best Attorney Generals in the Country, and will soon be, hopefully, a United States Senator representing the Great People of Texas! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

The man is so toxic - it's part of his 'brand' - and what the rampant and unabashed misogynist really means is that he doesn't want girls to play in boys' sports, and particularly if they're going to beat the boys. Yeah, it's definitely socialism that's given women these strange ideas about leaving the house and doing things for themselves!

Democrats in the US have accused President Donald Trump of "abusing his power" as immigration agents carry out a pre-dawn raid on the home of Ilhan Omar, a naturalised US citizen born in Somalia.
Ms Omar, who represents a seat in the US state of Minnesota, has been a frequent target of Mr Trump in recent years.
The raid comes just over three weeks out from the US midterm elections.

US authorities have conducted a pre-dawn raid on the Washington-area home of Democratic US Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, an outspoken critic of Donald Trump who has been the target of political insults by the Republican president.

A person familiar with the investigation said it is related to alleged immigration fraud, and part of the probe concerns the Somali-born politician's immigration paperwork, which was filled out by her late father when she was a child.

Denaturalize her dead father, on whose document she is at 17, then deport her.

Governors enter the election..supporting their party for congress
"Nine months into her first term, Sherrill, 54, is calling for a “new generation of leadership” to break with the party’s old habits. She also acknowledged in a wide-ranging interview with POLITICO that she has fielded calls about a presidential campaign of her own."

“With the new generation, what we’re doing is saying, ‘Our party has not been effective, and we haven’t won on the issues that most concern us,’” Sherrill said.

“That’s why we’re taking leadership right now and saying, ‘This is where we have to go, and that’s why we have to focus on affordability, and these are the critical areas for people,’” she added. “What I’m looking for is a leader who is in that mold and is not going to sound to me like a Democrat from years of old, but is going to sound like a strong fighter and champion of working people.”

"Sherrill has mostly steered clear of the public jockeying for higher office that many of her fellow Democratic governors have engaged in. But her fall schedule has included several trips around the country to campaign for Democratic candidates — including in some contentious primaries in Massachusetts and New Hampshire — and her boosters say it would be unwise to ignore her.
