imagine that a bunch of dipshits tried to run a Trump bus off the road. Trump would be melting the fuck down on twitter. Fox News would be screaming bloody murder. Jeanine Pirro's head would explode in a spray of stale wine. and Joe Biden would be the first person to denounce it

(17,862 posts)Trump giving approval for the action is the real story (a good second story would be Jr. firing up the mob in advance - you have some accountability for the actions of your minions). The fact neither denounced immediately is really, really bad. I can't see how it wouldn't be disqualifying for any political candidate.

(81,406 posts)Trump Train New Braunfels: The Klan Rides Again
One family has made hate and harassment their mission.
Nestled in the Hill Country is the picturesque town of New Braunfels. The old German settlement is home to a popular water park, beautiful hiking areas, and a former KKK Grand Dragon. Recently, the city has also become home to the Ceh family, transplants from Nevada who have positioned themselves as leaders in the battle of good vs evil in this growing central Texas city.
The family made their first media appearance in the summer, when local citizens staged a peaceful BLM gathering in the center of town. Steve and Randi Ceh showed up with several armed supporters to protect the town. Their friends made statements on social media (see screenshot) to harass local BLM supporters.
The couple insisted they were there in peace, but the guns and social media posts said otherwise.
After the success of their BLM protest, the couple decided to organize a Trump Train for NB. What started as a small gathering of goons with trucks and flags turned into a full fledged KKK style parade that locked down traffic while people were trying to get home from work. People of color in town changed worked schedules or their route home so they would not be subjected to the Thursday night harassment from the NB Trump Train.
The NB Trump Train has told Hispanics to go back where you came from.
They have yelled the N word and nearly run over a Black couple in the Buccees parking lot. The Ceh familys NB Trump Train allowed a member to drag a BLM flag under their truck, and even proudly made it part of their weekly video.
The racism escalated further when a NB Trump Train member randomly chose four Black men from the community to intimidate. He posted their pictures in the trains members only Facebook group and urged members to carry and watch for these men.

(14,637 posts)That's been the case since we first started here and it was Bush's team getting away with all their shit.
Republicans have proven out in the open how evil they are and fully 40+% of the country just doesn't care or they are that evil as well. It's hard to be encouraged when there is not wholesale outrage from both sides about this incident. They were a threat not only to a presidential candidate, but to a former VP. How can that not have serious consequences?

Shouldn't there be prosecutions?

Intelligence gathering on people perpretrating this b.s., professional escort and not terrified staffers in Civics getting rammed by monster trucks.

(7,341 posts)It needs to be banned. Besides being an ugly eyesore they are a danger to any other vehicle if they were to fly off. Fuck these assholes I'm so sick of their bizarre sexual fetish over their flag obsession.

(57,014 posts)and that was the last time they let Don Jr drive it. Only Eric's been driving driving it ever since. The 'boys' took over after Sarah Huckleberry Sanders (an ironic a last name as ever) retired. At night she claimed she saw Jebus hitch hiking along the interstate. Not a terrible problem past the talking in tongues, it was when she'd stop and back up. It was decided she should open a little "public relations" office back in Little Rock.
