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.

      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?

      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.

                  You claimed another user was lying. You dodged and dodged and dodged and finally decided to explain that their "lies" were omitting that other Presidents do the same shit. This is, you'll find, not lying.

                  funny-clown-hammer You're a fucking clown and I am at this point absolutely certain that everyone in your personal life knows that you're a clown.

                      Dude. I don’t know what broke you but, on planet earth, claiming that a person did a thing when it was not only not them but someone else is called lying.

                      You're really gonna be this stupid? If I say you posted on the internet, I'm a liar because so did millions of other people?

                      Holy shit man, log off and go look in a fucking mirror you joke.

                      'Cultist', nice perjorative you fucking weasel. Like y'all genocidal settlers don't call Trump's crazies the same thing. Nice equivalence.

          I will forgo any of my liberal socialist ideals if Biden wants to do whatever it takes

          This was you.

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

          This is you lying in light of what you said in that first quote.

          Own your skullduggerous, chronically-lying settler-assed horseshit with your WHOLE CHEST.

              Incorrect. Fundamentally incorrect. Fractally incorrect. Trump didn't let 61 Black protestors against the Cop City project that BIDEN drafted, funded, and adamantly stands by, get fucking federally RICO charged. If nothing's done about them, if they're not saved, they will ALL see prison chattel slavery internments of at least 15 years. Not a single Jan. 6th rioter got this treatment. I had more money in my pocket, and a better paying job under Trump. Meanwhile, under Biden, Indeed, Monster, even LinkedIn, all full of scams and fake jobs and if I'm ever unemployed for two years again despite sending out 20 applications a day AND having credentials and degrees out the nose, I'm gonna start chalking outlines of my own.

              While we're on the subject of Genocide Joe and his manifold fuckups, Biden just sent/promised 18 billion USD worth of jets and ordnance to Israhell again this morning. Biden's not preferable. He was never preferable, in fact; now he's just wearing his armband JUST as flagrantly as Trump did, will, and probably will again because you people have no interest in actually performing the morals you claim, as a result, no interest in making Biden EARN IT.

              There is no way for us to reconcile; no aisle to meet in the middle of. I will not support a genocidal segregationist; especially not a genocidal segregationist who is making NO tangible improvements to the material conditions that the non-elite of this society live under. Death to the settler. Death to his empire.

                  I won’t get into how the economy is actually the best it’s been in 40 years

                  Then where are the jobs, peckerwood? Why did it take me two and a half years to land a job with all my accreditation? Why is my partner STILL unemployed despite THEIR search? Why is a week's worth of groceries 300 dollars? Why am I spending nearly as much on gas? Why are houses so prohibitively expensive that I'll be renting a flat literally all my life? Why are used cars the cost of what new cars were ten years ago? You're so full of shit, when they flush you out for your coffin fitting, you'll fit in a goddamned matchbox.

                      He's such a fantastic moron. Dollars to donuts this guy's only 'engagement' with this country's financial woes is through Fortune, Forbes, and FT.

                        100-com if you want to claim that grocery prices are fine, you are way to comfortable that i cant even imagine it. No one saying the "economy" is fine knows what the fuck they're talking about in terms of the majority of peoples experiences right now

                      I know that the vast majority of grocery prices have come back to normal... These prices are likely not going to go down.

                      Then this is not the 'best economy we've had in forty years' you absolute car exhaust addict. Thanks for proving my point for me. Your only stock in trade is lies, more lies, and pissing on my leg tryna tell me it's raining. Death to the settler; death to his empire. Even balkanization is better than this.

                          don’t know how the economy is measured

                          please get out your calipers and measure the economy for me oh learned master

                          "the economy" isn't a thing and you don't measure "the economy"
                          purchasing power is way down and people are falling into poverty

                          Fuck off, genocider. You don't measure for the people; you're measuring for your masters. Your numbers, your 'reality', is not mine or anyone's that I live near. Your words, your measurements, and your claimed morals are just as hollow as the rest of the settler cohort's; you no longer deserve, and are no longer invited to hold dialogue with me.
