He was suspended for his free speech remarks? Uh...yeah, it has EVERYTHING to do with his rights. But this really is a typical MAGA response.

And not only that, but his Go Fund Me is up to $500,000. Best thing the guy ever yelled. 🤣🤣

This is tough to watch, but I think everyone needs to see it. Just a complete pattern of excessive force and then not administering any aid after leaving victims unconscious. Horrific. 

Is there any MAGA supporters on this board who support this kind of behavior? Seriously? If so, seek help, you're in a cult.

Was Trump suspended from his job for inappropriate behavior?

The government didn't suspend him, his employer did. The first amendment only protects him from the government. 

 

While I 100% support his actions, I also recognize that it is very much suspension worthy. Now I also question the wisdom of bringing a political figure (ESPECIALLY this political figure), and not expect this type of thing. Actually I wouldn't be surprised if they did expect it, and warned people that disruptive behavior would result in a suspension (still worth it).

$640k worth it so far.

Hopefully he makes more than the chud that shot a woman in the face

Trump has never had a real job before this (even the bad TV show). Daddy bailed him out multi times as has the banks

In just the last week Trump's FBI has begun an investigation into the background of the spouse of the woman who was murdered by ICE agents last week.

Ordered his Justice Dept to begin an investigation of the head of the Federal Reserve who would not capitulate to his demands to lower interest rates.

Had the FBI enter a reporter's home and seize files and multiple devices in relation to a news story. Continue investigations into several Democratic members of Congress who appeared in a video reminding service members they are not obligated to follow illegal orders.

If Obama or Biden had done any one of these things Trumpublicans would have had them up on impeachment charges in a New York minute and their supporters would be constructing gallows in the nearby park

I rarely post here, mostly hang out in the Tigers and Pistons forums. Had to vent a bit though. I'm a left leaning independent. I have little faith either main party truly has everyone's welfare in mind. I've been a mental health professional since 1989. I work primarily with the homeless population, which involves a lot of community collaboration. My last job was contracting with Hennepin County (Minneapolis) corrections, working with homeless adults on probation. Feds cut hundreds of millions to MN social services last summer, and my program was axed. I just got a new job working with homeless in St Paul. I literally started Monday. Yesterday Trump cut 2 billion in samhsa grants that fund mental health and addiction services. My clinic was informed this morning. I was told this afternoon my job is gone.

There are several million households behind in mortgage or rent at least 3 months. The booming homeless population is likely to boom even more, and soon. 

There has been so much widespread fraud. I understand why this administration is skeptical and taking drastic measures. But this doesn't punish Walz. It punishes the poor.

I'm accepting that I may no longer be able to work on the streets. I'll be fine. This just adds another barrier to stability to thousands of people

Populism is really good at identifying and railing against problems. It's terrible at actually doing constructive things to deal with said problems.

A tale as old as time

I'm surprised and sad to hear that public administration in MN seems to have lapsed so badly. When I lived there I was always impressed that they seemed to run a sound good operation. I always got the impression that MN liberalism had a strongly realist view of human behavior - I guess either that was a mirage or it just got lost somewhere.

The UAW doesn't seem to agree. They claim the guy has a right to free speech. Huh...

The people protesting in Minnesota is exactly what Trump wants in all of the blue states. Its his plan to declare martial law, which would allow him to suspend elections.
