    Daylight Saving Time ends, giving Trump an extra hour to lie

    Pabio Posted on

    Donald Trump could find a way to offend even more Puerto Ricans while denigrating all women AND mixing in sneering comments about Kamala Harris’ biracial identity.

    play

    THE end of summer time is perfect this year because it gives Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and his surrogates an extra hour to lie to voters and, if past is prologue, offend an entire part of the American population.

    This is obviously a huge advantage for his campaign. If there’s one thing Americans can’t get enough of, it’s hearing about an election year cover-up from a 78-year-old misogynist who thinks legal immigrants from Haiti eat dogs and cats and never apologizes for any of the the very false and offensive things he says.

    Trump’s recent rally at Madison Square Garden in New York, there was a constant stream of hateful rhetoric, from one speaker calling Puerto Rico an “island of garbage” to another calling Democrats a “bunch of degenerates.” Trump followed that up with a rally in Wisconsin where he forgot that women have agency and declared that as a big, manly president, he would protect them.whether women like it or not.”

    And now, thanks to summer timeimagine what Trump can do with a bonus hour.

    End of DST gives Trump an extra hour to offend

    He could find a way to offend even more Puerto Ricans while denigrating all women AND adding sneering comments about the Democratic presidential candidate. Kamala Harris’ mixed race identity.

    There would probably be time to run a few lies about the economy, taking credit for things he had nothing to do with and make 20-30 strong claims about non-existent voter fraud.

    Notice: Trump’s MAGA base might want to prepare – Harris could win

    Imagine the possibilities.

    Trump could take advantage of this free hour to publish Thursday’s Wall Street Journal headline: “The next president inherits a remarkable economy” – and claim that the economy has JUST become remarkable because he thinks he will win the elections.

    This would give him enough time to: lie about the FEMA Response to Recent Hurricanes; brag about how he’s going to leave Anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. bans medicine; and say that the polls showing Harris with a small lead in the presidential race are wrong, while those showing him with a small lead are accurate and surprising.

    In the last minutes of this free hour, Trump can tell everyone that he is absolutely going to win the election, but that the the elections will also be totally rigged because the Democrats are “the enemy from within.”

    “Fallback”: Time change gives Trump chance to demonize a whole new city!

    He might travel to a town and make up a story about how it happened. “invaded” and “conquered” by immigrants who are “vicious and bloodthirsty criminals”. No one in this town will know what he’s talking about, and some might start to move away slowly and carefully since he clearly doesn’t have all the oars in the water.

    But it’s Trump’s time, and he can spend it however he wants!

    His campaign could hold an hour-long seminar on Trump’s beloved plan to raise tariffs by billions of percent.

    And they could explains how all the headlines say “Product prices would rise with Trump’s tariffs” and “Companies are willing to raise prices to compensate for Trump’s global tariff plans” and “Donald Trump promises high customs tariffs. Companies are ready to raise prices» are FAKE NEWS!

    Notice: Trump respects all women. Unless they are “dumber than hell” Kamala Harris.

    The bottom line is this: Trump has 60 minutes to say whatever he wants, and he will no doubt find a clever way to fill that time with brand dishonesty.

    Unfortunately, Kamala Harris also gets an extra hour – RIGGED!

    Tragically, due to DST interfering in the election, Harris also has a free hour. Knowing her, she will use her to continue to spread a message of unitypromoting ideas that could actually help Americans and, repeatedly, not offending large groups of people with dehumanizing language.

    Classic liberal waste of time.

    Whatever Harris does, I’m sure Trump will use some of his time to call her a communist or a “low IQ individual.” The man knows how to take advantage when the clocks are changing and we’re going backwards.

    That’s why he hopes the Americans will choose him on Tuesday. So we can all go back. Around the beginning of the 1950s.
