NYT: Trump told evangelicals the GOP has to win the midterms or "they will end everything immediately."

"They will overturn everything that we’ve done and they’ll do it quickly and violently. And violently. There’s violence. When you look at Antifa..." nytimes.com/2018/08/28/us/…
The most remarkable part of Trump's closed-door meeting with evangelical leaders is that he spent most of his time bragging that he's gotten rid of the Johnson Amendment, which they, of all people, know he has not gotten rid of. nbcnews.com/politics/elect…
Yes this is a good point, I retract my “most remarkable.”

Most of the heroin Trump is talking about comes through legal ports of entry, not through unwalled areas.
Trump has never personally presented detailed data about how many children are being fraudulently used for border-crossing purposes, merely implying it's common. The evidence suggests it's a small minority of the families who cross.
Democrats have not made a "request" for a steel barrier, as far as anyone knows. They don't want any of this.

In my experience, immediately fact-checking Trump's immigration lies is harder than immediately fact-checking most other Trump lies -- they're often written into his speeches by people more sophisticated at deception than he is.
Most of Trump's lying is just Trump being a liar -- it's him ad-libbing out of speeches that are more or less factual. The immigration lying is an administration-wide strategy.
He repeats a lot of them, so outlets should be prepared to respond to those right away. But there's really no way to counteract a barrage of live-to-air Trump immigration lies with fact-checking, even if live-TV-fact-checking were a common thing - you can't do it fast enough.

Trump this morning: "Iran hates ISIS more than we do, if that's possible. Russia hates ISIS more than we do. Turkey hates ISIS maybe not as much as we do. But these are countries that hate ISIS."
On the shutdown, Trump said, "I may declare a national emergency dependent on what's gonna happen over the next few days."
Trump repeated his now-familiar false claim about the U.S. military presence in Syria: "When they went to Syria five years ago, they were supposed to be there three to four months. And they never came out." Experts tell me there was never any timetable on the mission.

💥Caravan Thread💥

10/23/18

Theme of this thread is about the Caravan. First I want to express that Qanons, MAGA & the GOP have zero desire of violence. There will be no civil war.

WE RENOUNCE VIGILANTE VIOLENCE!

#Qanon #GOP #MAGA #Thread #Caravan
1) “You Never Let A Serious Crisis Go To Waste.”

That quote is regurgitated in 2012 by Rahm Emanuel, former Obama White House Chief of Staff. This reflects the thinking of Saul Alinsky, who wrote “Rules for Radicals.”

2) BHO & Emanuel (Chiraq Governor) are Dems and hail from Chiraq. Democrats are going all in on their playbook which is actually Sauls reimagining of Karl Marx and so on. The book Rules for Radicals is a must read. It’s the Democrats Playbook.

Trump warns of violence if the GOP loses midterms nbcnews.com/politics/elect… If the GOP loses,"They will overturn everything that we've done & they'll do it quickly & violently...There's violence. When you look at Antifa & you look at some of these groups-these are violent people."
This is such an irresponsible, unhinged & nefarious threat from the president of the US. This is what leaders in 3rd world dictatorships do.
The idea that President Trump would want to regulate the Google search engine because he doesn't like the negative exposure for him that it generates is also the realm of third world dictators... washingtonpost.com/news/morning-m…

"They will overturn everything that we've done and they'll do it quickly and violently, and violently. There's violence. When you look at Antifa and you look at some of these groups — these are violent people" #EmptyThePews #EvangelicalContributions nbcnews.com/politics/elect…
If by "overturn everything that we've done quickly and violently" Trump means "use democratic means to restore the separation of church and state & end discrimination in the name of religious freedom," then yes, he is 100% correct.
Trump privately urges pastors to help him from the pulpit in the midterms, falsely claims he has eliminated the Johnson Amendment, which threatens religious organizations with the loss of tax-exempt status if they endorse or oppose political candidates

how come we are spied on in every possible way (#5eyes, #InQTel & hundreds others) and everything is valid to you (& me), the average guy to court, to get conviction, to... fucking it, everything is legal.
But 'we have everything', except that everybody is
2- #MakingADeal because we need to collect evidence in 'whatever legal way'?
Are you fucking kidding me?
None of you have a problem with that?
3-More venting later...
4-That compound that 'we blew up', did Trump speak out against that? If yes, please link me to it. If not, why not? Aren't the 'white hats' in control now? Why are we hiding evidence?
5-And if there is no condemnation and no talk, doesn't that mean that:

1. I remember when you angry #Trumpkins stormed into #Republican Party; called #Conservatives “cucks”, “leftists”, “Killary voters”, “libtards”. You idolized #Trump in a cultic way. You fraternized with alt right #racists. You winked at #sexism. ->

#ConservativeWithoutAParty
2. You said #Conservative principles didn’t really matter, though you really couldn’t tell us what #Conservatism means. Of course, your leader didn’t know either; his attempts to articulate it were painful. You mocked our efforts to explain. ->

#ConservativeWithoutAParty
3. #Trump wild swings of rhetoric, positions, moods didn’t bother any of you. Whatever Trump said last was best & most true, no matter the word salad in which it was presented. His blatant self-contradictions were obvious to all but to you. ->
