Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Trump received over $170 million in inaugural donations, primarily from companies and the extremely wealthy.

Yet, this artist didn’t get paid?

And the artist believes they were saving “tax payer dollars”?

And the artist seems to be catching blowback from his industry for the association?

This seems like the standard playbook for “working for Trump”, just in a 30-minute DJ-set format…

I would be personally shocked if most of the funds weren't embezzled

I mean this is the orange idiot we're talking about. He wouldn't have paid this guy regardless.
