    I would thought the “give a kid an Ar-15” would had made that obvious

    We’re in a thread that’s discussing the former president of the US actually claiming shit like this, so no, there’s really nothing you could say that would “make it obvious”.

            I think you’re in denial about how fucked up US politics is.

            Once again, I remind you that a former president, in a presidential debate, claimed these things. So it doesn’t matter if you’re talking about them jokingly, he wasn’t.

              I am very aware Trump is a moron. It’s like saying water is wet. I’m not really sure what you are trying to argue.

                “I’ll make it obvious that I’m trolling”, you said just in your previous comment.

                You can’t, because of the reality we live in.

                How is this hard for you to understand? US politics is so absurd that there is literally nothing you could write about it which would be obviously untrue.

                    “Just because it’s illegal doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen”

                    Several times now I’ve tried explaining this. No matter how much you jeered and winked mentally while posting that, the world (or US politics rather) is in such a state, that there’s no way of differentiating that from someone who actually was serious with it, since those people do actually exist.
