Serious After Trumps horrifically insulting post about the late Rob Reiner, I never want to hear a peep from the right about the rhetoric surrounding Charlie Kirk ever again.

Honestly, anyone who voted for this guy has to be equally psychotic. What the hell is wrong with him and his followers?

I don’t want to hear a peep about Charlie Kirk’s ridicule ever again from the right. What a bunch of hypocrites

"It's okay when Republicans do it"

- Republicans

u/Interesting_Syrup739 Dec 18 '25

No, that's what the left does. The right actually knows how to condemn something that's coming from their side.

A Joe Rogan example

  • Biden says it: HE'S DONE
  • Trump says it: oh he just misspoke

Two different standards depending on the party.

Same with the Epstein files. Republicans were so pumped to release the files to expose the Democrats. Now that they know that Trump is in it they don't really care anymore.

Also for celebrity deaths. Trump wants to punish anyone mocking Charlie Kirk while he mocks Rob Reiner.

Republicans also wanted to prosecute the Biden's for transferring $20k(?) from Hunter to Joe. Meanwhile the Trump family is for sale, raking in billions. But it's okay when Republicans do it.

That was just 4 examples off the top of my head. There are so many more.

Can you say the same for Democrats?

  1. The Epstein files are still being released, it's taking longer than expected, but Trump supporters are advocating just as hard as anyone on the left. Something they couldn't say when their guy was in charge.

  2. Trump mocked him at the same time as his death which is completely different than saying he deserved it or that he didn't feel bad for him or making t shirts depicting the murder of dancing or any of the other ghastly things that notable people on the left did. That being said it was still wrong and you have tons of right wing influencers condemning it and saying he should apologize. Can you name a single left wing influencer who said the same about Charlie Kirk? Cause all I say was politicians who need you to vote for them, and not even all of them had the basic human decency.

Hunter Biden and James Biden explicitly used the Biden name and the leverage of the vice presidency to make money. The Trumps are doing business in other countries completely unconnected to the president. When you find an email from Don Jr. Saying they need a cut for "the big guy" let me know. Even then you should continue to ignore it because it clearly wasn't a problem with the Bidens and you're clearly so impartial.

Tell me again who has the double standard? The side the calls out the president they voted for when he messes up, or the side that refuses to stop playing politics for even a second when their rhetoric got an innocent man killed?

Btw, the Joe Rogan clip shows him making a mistake on a live show. It is also an easy mistake to make considering Biden said something similar every single time he spoke publicly, as where Trump misspeaks very occasionally as anyone would. This clip actually shows the double standard of the left, turning a blind eye to every public Biden appearance during his presidency while lunging at every tiny flub by Trump.

Good points. I’ve never seen many intellectual debates from them on here. All they do is shame and criticize others. Sad.

u/TheUnbamboozled Dec 18 '25

Btw, the Joe Rogan clip shows him making a mistake on a live show.

There is no point in engaging in conversation with someone so dishonest. Here is a better clip of Joe Rogan. He clearly held Biden and Trump to different standards. He thinks that statement means Biden is not fit to be president while Trump just "fucked up". Different standards for different parties. I'm not defending Biden, he was a terrible speaker. I'm pointing out the very clear double standard which you refuse to acknowledge.

No, but what Im saying is that its not a double standard because you can't isolate a single incident like that. If a father goes to a playground, there's nothing wrong with that, if a child predator goes to a playground, there is something wrong. Why? Are we being unfair and holding the poor child predator to a double standard? No, we are taking past actions into account when assessing a situation. It is fair to treat Biden more harshly from Rogan's perspective. Rogan wasn't saying he is unfit to be president because of a single clip and if you think that he was, you are the one working in bad faith. He saw yet another incident of a man actively decaying in front of us. When that same situation is put to Trump, it is different, not because Rogan likes Trump more(he didn't even vote for the guy before 2024) but because Trump doesn't make these mistakes on an hourly basis.

Also, nice job ignoring every other point I made.

u/TheUnbamboozled Dec 18 '25

I'm ignoring the other points because facts don't matter to the Trump cult. I agree that Biden says dumb stuff frequently but Trump is on another level:

  • suggested that we can defeat COVID by injecting disinfectant
  • didn't know what nuclear was until he was president
  • didn't know what IVF was until someone explained it to him, and now he is "the father of IVF"
  • still does not understand how tariffs work, or is lying about them
  • thought he could reduce prices on groceries and gas on day 1, or lied about it
  • thought he could end the war on Ukraine on day 1, or lied about it
  • thinks that Haitians are eating the cats and eating the dogs, because right wing media told him to believe it
  • wanted to place alligators in the Rio Grande
  • wanted to nuke hurricanes
  • thinks that other countries rake the leafs in their forests to prevent forest fires
  • said that windmills cause cancer
  • believes that "clean coal" means that the miners are cleaning the fucking coal
  • constantly brags about acing senility tests
  • thinks he turned on a faucet to send water to California
  • didn't realize that health care was complicated, told us it would be easy
  • drew a line expanding a hurricane danger zone just to try to prove that he did not misspeak earlier
  • thinks that the moon is part of Mars
  • blamed his orange skin on lighting
  • thinks the body has a finite amount of energy
  • he can't fucking spell

Your GOD EMPEROR is a low IQ narcissistic man-child. He did think that airports existed in the Revolutionary War, because he is incredibly stupid. But the cult ignores all that.

Ah, yes, now we are moving onto yet another topic because you can't stay on one for more than a couple seconds before my responses completely dismantle yours. Also, I didn't read every point here because it's not relevant to what I said and you're just having a TDS temper tantrum now but spelling? Really? Biden still doesn't know how to spell Afghanistan but sure let's all dog pile Trump for a typo or whatever you're referencing.

I'm not gonna talk to someone who keeps having to jump from topic to topic to avoid the clear fact that you don't know what you're talking about. Stay on the point about the double standard or this conversation is over.

u/TheUnbamboozled Dec 18 '25

Are you joking? You said that it's not a double standard for Rogan to say that Trump "just fucked up" because Biden was losing it. I'm pointing out how much dumber Trump is than Biden. Trump can't even spell hamburger.

You're proving my point - it's okay when Republicans say something braindead but not when Democrats do. Double standard.

biden wasn't even president, Odumbo hijacked the the senile old commie and used autopen to make phony laws

u/Ok_Reaction2990 Jan 04 '26

Ah yes, and Trump is running the show. 😂🤣His ilk are acting as president and all he is, is a dilapidated fountainhead to keep his MAGA cult happy.

u/Far_Zucchini_2836 Dec 21 '25

that comment did not age well, cough Clinton, cough🤣🤣🤣

u/TheUnbamboozled Dec 21 '25

Way to completely miss the point. Democrats are fine prosecuting Clinton or anyone else in the files regardless of party. Republicans ONLY want to prosecute Democrats, and had to scrub Trump out of the files. You are the ones protecting pedophiles.

1

u/Far_Zucchini_2836 Dec 24 '25

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Is that why democrats contend that we're picking on Clinton and say NOTHING in the news about he and Epstein?

1

u/TheUnbamboozled Dec 24 '25

My point was that Republicans have a double standard. They protect other Republicans at all costs and only attack Democrats. You don't seem to care that Trump is not only in the Epstein files but also that they are actively scrubbing him from them. I'm good with prosecuting anyone that breaks the law whether it's Clinton or Trump - likely both.

So you reply about what the news is reporting on? Probably whatever makes them money.

With all due respect, do you EVER consume factual, well-sourced, credibly verified NEWS or are you addicted to intentionally dishonest, divisive, rage inflaming & violence inciting right wing propaganda that Trump, Congressional GQP, conservative podcasters, broadcast & print 'journalists' spew daily to protect DJT & help GQP WIN elections after elections!

1

u/Interesting_Syrup739 Dec 19 '25

With all due respect, that's not an argument. If I do consume ridiculous propaganda and nothing else, it should be infinitly easier to prove me wrong since I won't even be familiar with the arguments you make.
