Thanks for the anti-clickbait.
Not clickbait, when MAGA supporters get hit with reality this hard they literally disperse into a puff of smoke
I mean the "one liner" could at least have been put in the OP.
It definitely is clickbait

Coulda added, “don’t worry, you probably haven’t missed the dance number, they go on for a while.”
When the commotion started, Harris smiled at the disrupters and said, “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally.”
As the crowd roared, Harris readied the punchline:
“I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”
Ouch.
The crowd erupted again as Harris laughed and waved the protesters goodbye.

I don't really get going to political rallies at all, but what kind of losers with nothing better to do go to a political rally of your opponent.
I went to a Bernie rally. Only time I’ve wanted to go to a rally before or since.

I went to a Bernie Sanders rally, it was 🔥
It's an attempt to intimidate or even start a fight. You know, like brownshirts.
Silver shirts to red caps.
So… do you think the brown comes from Dear Leader’s diaper?
I would have loved to see them fucking try. This isn't 1939
In 1939, they came with billy bats and sticks and actually got into fistfights.
Today, they come with assault rifles and bombs. I don't want to see them "try" anything, thank you.
Into a packed, well guarded (especially so after two failed assassination attempts of another candidate) arena?
Good luck even getting inside.
Ehhh, I don't know about that assessment
I can confirm it is 2024.

I’d be down for people going to Trump rallies to harass and abuse him.
Why not, it’s only antidemocratic if they do it, right?
Democracy in a 2 party system? puh-lease.
Who needs it right? Let’s go harass political opponents, jail journalists we don’t like, have people executed on our birthdays like they do in Russia - there is no democracy in a 2 party system anyway, why keep appearances. Let’s go full fascist, that will show how we are better than the other fascists.
Of course using your voice to shout down literal fascists is the same as gaoling journalists and executing people as birthday presents . . .
Intolerance cannot be tolerated.
It’s not the same, it’s in the same direction. If you want to defeat somebody you must make sure you remain better than them, otherwise they may as well win.
I agree with you, I don’t want to tolerate them. Cool. There are still rules.
What do you hate them for exactly?
Speaking for me, I hate Trump because he is a bona fide fascist and some of his supporters are nothing short of brown shirts, and these people are not outcasts in their movement, they are welcomed and praised.
Now i hear your wonderful idea: let’s behave like brown shirts as well, that will show them. If we behave like fascists then maybe we can prevent the others who behave like fascists from taking power! I don’t want any fascists in power, left or right leaning.
Let’s not tolerate those motherfuckers. Let’s hold them accountable, jail that orange piece of shit for the treason he is guilty of, jail the jansixers and send them to break rocks, make those responsible of fascism pay for it. I have no use for more fascists.
I love when people take an offhanded remark that isn't really even meant and use it to go off about how they're worse than a fascist. like this woman insisted I was a fascist for agreeing with the sentiment behind "I wish we had some way of requiring voters to be educated"
Not really what happened in this conversation my friend but ok
So apparently you think this was a real call to arms, to go to trump rallies to troll irl?

You're right. Offhanded musings don't exist. Only society-destroying plots, hatched from 17 comments deep on social media exist.
He like red. You like blue. Everyone get purple. This, ooga booga, is more fair. Is better democracy, ooga booga.

Problem is, there is no exit strategy.
Apparently at a few of his rallies attendees have been stuck without buses. He doesn't care what happens after
Also, he doesn't pay his bills for the rallies apparently either to the city
I actually love the fact that stadiums full of people go to political rallies and get jazzed about policy speeches. It's strange, right? But I'm glad it's something we get collectively psyched about. In a democracy, it (usually) feels healthy.

That’s an invitation to the general public (including conservatives) to attend (could be online) a Trump rally to see for themselves. It wasn’t an order to go to the opponent (and heckle them).
It’s gigantic difference.

That’s actually pretty good. She didn’t even need to say how great her rally was or how it was the best rally or how no one does a masterlock confefe like she does
She also didn't say they need to get knocked out.
They probably showed up expecting a "weak" and "stupid"/"low IQ" Harris fumbling over mindlessly reading the teleprompter to a handful of mentally unwell AI-generated rabid leftists and drag queens and instead got their ass handed to them
I know there was some dingdong on here last week sure her campaign was going to blow up this week and her numbers were going to tank. I'm giving it another week or two before responding again just to drive home how big of a dingdong they really are.
Normalize tactical use of "dingdong"
I support this as long as we bring back dagnabbit as well.
We all have our part to play in making the world an amusing place, dagnabbit

And because she had a quick response for them other MAGA are going to claim they were plants and not real MAGA.
Love when they go to "prove" something only to get disowned by their own in-group.
