Trump bizarrely claims 'they' will change the name of the state of Pennsylvania if he loses it
Donald Trump seemed to allude to sites honoring historical figures that had been renamed. But there have been no moves to change Pennsylvania's name.
"I promise you this, with me at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, no one will lay a finger on your firearms — just as took place for four years when I was your president,"
Trump banned bump stocks, which laid the basis for the pistol brace ban, both of which conservative 2a meisters absolutely love, right? And this was at a NRA conference? I don't get how people know he did that and hate him for it, but will immediately forget their hatred in order to defend him on any other ground. MAGA is a cult.
The evil libs are gonna rename it Pedovania and kick out all the straight white christians and turn the state into an adrenochrome harvesting child sex facility!
and because we live in a post-poe world, I have to emphasize, emphatically, that this is sarcasm.
Has the NRA already forgotten this? https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/376097-trump-take-the-guns-first-go-through-due-process-second/
I heard the poll result was Statey McStateface
Penn was a slave owner but among plutocrats in the 1600s he's about as good as it gets. He treated native Americans well (and to whatever extent you want to credit it, he treated his slaves better than most) and liked democracy and religious freedom.
So if you want to credit the morsel of an idea here, he is probably trying to say that even though Penn was an OK guy relative to the times, he could get "cancelled" because he was a slave owner and then "they" would force the state to change its name because Penn was canceled.
But obviously, half muttering nonsense that can be interpreted favorably by anyone with whatever beliefs if they so choose is Trump's super power so I'm all for reading this uncharitably and just saying he's being weird and crazy.
He needs to keep the name of Dr. Thaddeus Q. They out of his goddamn mouth
well, this is an escalation. like, this is a big step up from hamberders and Nikki Haley at Jan 6.
When thy change his diaper, they should check for blood.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former President Donald Trump bizarrely claimed that if he loses Pennsylvania, “they” will change the state's name.
Trump made the claim in a speech to thousands of members of the National Rifle Association (NRA) in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Friday night.

In recent years, there have been moves across the United States to address the country’s racist past by renaming places named after controversial historical figures, particularly those with ties to slavery and the Confederacy.
"I promise you this, with me at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, no one will lay a finger on your firearms — just as took place for four years when I was your president," he said.
President Joe Biden was born in Pennsylvania and won the state against Trump in the 2020 election.

No, no we won't.
Biden really needed Trump to set a new water mark after the last couple days, and he came through.
Hasn't he already lost it? Like he's totally lost his mind.
Right after "they" de-bank you...
“We did so well and I think we’re gonna have the same result here,” Trump said. “I really do. I think we’re gonna [unintelligible]. But we’re also going to place strong protections to stop banks and regulators from trying to de-bank you from your— you know, your political beliefs, what they do. They wanna de-bank you and we’re going to de-bank.”
“They wanna take away your rights,” he continued. “They wanna take away your country. The things they’re doing. All electric cars. Give me a break. If you want an electric car, great. But they don’t go far. They’re very expensive. They gotta be made in China. That’s why I think I’m gonna get the autoworkers to vote for Trump. You know, we’re having great, great talks. But think of what they wanna do. They wanna take away your rights.”
God I hope this actually happens!
