Trump Goes Q

[ClydeR]

I don't understand Trump's political strategy. He seems willing to accept short-term praise from Q believers at the cost of his long-term political viability.


After winking at QAnon for years, Donald Trump is overtly embracing the baseless conspiracy theory, even as the number of frightening real-world events linked to it grows.

On Tuesday, using his Truth Social platform, the Republican former president reposted an image of himself wearing a Q lapel pin overlaid with the words “The Storm is Coming.” In QAnon lore, the “storm” refers to Trump’s final victory, when supposedly he will regain power and his opponents will be tried, and potentially executed, on live television.

As Trump contemplates another run for the presidency and has become increasingly assertive in the Republican primary process during the midterm elections, his actions show that far from distancing himself from the political fringe, he is welcoming it.

He’s published dozens of recent Q-related posts, in contrast to 2020, when he claimed that while he didn’t know much about QAnon, he couldn’t disprove its conspiracy theory.

Even when his posts haven’t referred to the conspiracy theory directly, Trump has amplified users who do. An Associated Press analysis found that of nearly 75 accounts Trump has reposted on his Truth Social profile in the past month, more than a third of them have promoted QAnon by sharing the movement’s slogans, videos or imagery. About 1 in 10 include QAnon language or links in their profile bios.

Earlier this month, Trump chose a QAnon song to close out a rally in Pennsylvania. The same song appears in one of his recent campaign videos and is titled “WWG1WGA,” an acronym used as a rallying cry for Q adherents that stands for “Where we go one, we go all.”

QAnon doesn't exist anymore. The splintered into Q and Anon.

That is what someone told me though.

Political fringe?

Literally every Democrat is on all media, day in and day out, talking about the "coming civil war"... they talk about all that shit day, after day, after day...

They are literally trying to force the country into one.... and when someone says something similar, from the other side, it's all of a sudden crazy?

Not sure if you haven't noticed, but the Left's playbook is to accuse their opponents of literally everything that they are doing... The Left has called for blowing up the Supreme Court... the Left has called for changing the electoral college... the Left has called for defunding the police and releasing killers from jail... the Left has destroyed cities and communities for years... the Left has taken over hundreds of government buildings over the years, destroyed them, and claimed "autonomous zones"... the Left is the one that tried to literally create a "Ministry of Truth"... the Left has called for getting rid of the Constitution for fucks sake...

The fact they get morons to think it's the "Right" doing it is absolutely insane... but that just tells you how powerful their working with "mainstream media" is... they can get idiots to believe anything, other than what is actually happening.

Clyder, you never told us your thoughts on Marth’s Voneyard using police and the national guard to help remove migrants from the island less than 48 hours after their arrival.

I thought I had made my position clear on illegal immigration. If people are in the United States illegally, they should be removed by the police immediately. My animated avatar, from the first day I posted on this forum, made clear that I predicted illegal immigration would be an important political issue. Being a shy person, I do not engage in protracted arguments, which you may have noticed.

If they are not here illegally, then they can go where they want. They could even attend a Trump rally, such as the one shown in the below photo from a Trump rally this weekend, where attendees are making the Q salute.

Ah right, suddenly that's your position after Democrats call in the National Guard to remove brown immigrants from their white island.

Go figure, a white populist whose autocratic dreams were vanquished is now trying to stir up further rebellion. He's been preaching their material since 2016.

Your avatar isn't animated.

The fact that you thought it was for the past 15 years explains a lot though.

You probably also believe that that's an actual Nazi salute in that pic.

Know why? Because you're a retard.

Is this salute thing like the OK symbol, made up by 4 chan to troll the BBC? It's so hard to keep up with all the secret symbols when only the other side seems to know about them.

It absolutely is!

It's stupid Democrats who see the Nazi salute when they want to and just see people innocently raising their hands when they want to.

For instance, here are people raising their hands at an Obama rally:

Obama = Democrat so therefore they are innocently raising their hands.

This is now where idiots like Seran and Clyder analyze the pictures and say "Ackushly you can see in the Trump picture that their arms are slightly bent, which makes it the Nazi salute."

You're the only one who brought up Nazis. I invoke Godwin's Law. You lose.

Holy shit it is, just barely changing background colors :rofl:

The media's been trying to push it for a few days now. Stop acting like you're unaware of this.

Or else reported to Latrin's mom.
