The cowardly lion with the thinning mane would never do anything like this. He might have his minions do it but this coward would never have the balls to actually do anything like this:

Already a thread for this: http://www...hread=84854&time=1571031861301

But the Yahoo! article had a funny line:
"In the video, Trump's critics and media members are portrayed as parishioners fleeing his gruesome rampage"

lulz... I guess they never saw the 2014 Kingsman movie. In that scene, *everyone* is killing each other due to a neuro-signal that causes violence, it just happens that the main character is the best at it ;p ... so no one was fleeing from anything. They were all taking part, trying to kill him *and* each other.

That might show the deeper problem here. With memes applied, it's symbolic violence, not real violence, so it shows a DNC and affiliate situation of self-destruction that's allowing Trump to take on each one-by-one. Romney symbolically stabs him in the back; Trump sets Bernie's hair on fire, but it's a Democratic Party logo that shoots Bernie (symbolic of them turning on their own); Harvey Weinstein holds Bill Clinton in a head lock (a note on their former connections); CNN butchers Kathy Griffin with an axe (symbolic of them ruining her after her decapitated Trump photo shoot); etc...

I mean, Yahoo! doesn't have to agree with the message, but they can at least try to understand it correctly.

But why do that when, you can just paint the video in the worst possible light instead?

Yeah, I read part of an article and got to their description of the video and was like "... THAT'S NOT HOW THAT SCENE WENT, YA FUCK NUGGET." It was a god dammed free for all.

the original scene was a free-for-all but i'm pretty confident the creator's main intention here was to show Trump killing everyone as logos/faces aren't put on anyone not interacting w/ Trump

(w/ possible exceptions of the 3 specific scenarios CC noted... the Kathy/CNN perhaps since they fired her from the New Years Eve event, i wouldn't say CNN was the loudest voice in the criticism of her)

the insinuation that Hannity is giving the straight news is about all you need to know :p
