Former president Donald Trump disseminated on social media on Friday an image of President Biden with his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.

The image can be seen about halfway through a 20-second video that Trump posted on his Truth Social site. The post says it was recorded Thursday on Long Island, where Trump traveled this week to attend a wake for a recently killed police officer.

In the video, two trucks decorated with giant Trump flags and altered American flags are driving on a highway. On the tailgate door of one of the trucks is the image of Biden lying horizontally, bound and gagged.

Trump has a history of sharing and promoting violent images featuring his perceived enemies.

Genuinely, nobody gives a shit about your personal opinion on voting, not only has nobody asked you about it, it’s incredibly rote and predictable. You claimed there were lies and exaggerations - quit dodging and address your accusation with specifics.

but I personally hold my presidential candidates to a higher moral value than the rest of the public.

Just wanted to add, no you fucking don’t, because you’re willing to forgive Joe Biden for genocide. I wouldn’t forgive the average person for that, but since you’re fixated on Trump you’re willing to vote for genocide.

Nothing on this list is specific to Biden’s presidency.

So, when pressed over and over again to simply identify the “lies”, the best you come up with is that it’s all true but it’s also true about other presidents?

Does anyone in your life take you seriously?

Libs never engage with specifics. That’s why their favorite dodge is to claim something is “complicated” and “needs nuance”
