lol just imagine firing squad unloading a guy in a wheelchair tho

And then it was Tuesday

One thing trump is great at, seeing how this is going to be a bad look.

And even after Hegseth posted on X on Thursday confirming that the Pentagon planned to livestream the execution, Trump polled several of his advisers and allies about how to proceed.

It was during the those conversations that Trump learned Hasan was paralyzed from the waist down — he was shot in the back by law enforcement during the 2009 shooting at Ford Hood — and that he now uses a wheelchair, the sources said, which made showing the execution publicly less palatable to the president.

Kind of a weird place to draw the line when you routinely rape children, but okay

Showing the execution of a wheelchair bound person would be DEI and Trump can't possibly have that.

Every time I think Trump can't come off as more pathetic he still manages to surprise.

I've been telling people, this is to normalize public execution for "treason" the main demographic trump cared about was a soldier firing on other soldiers.

A big strong man standing there is a propaganda message.

But trumps never consider injured soldiers as soldiers, he "only likes winners".

So dude being in a wheelchair wouldnt send the message the fascists want to send; that it doesn't matter how tough you are they'll get you.

It's always just been about the optics of it, and using it to normalize political violence. That's why he never faced a terrorism charge, they want the label to be "traitor" because that's anyone not for the current administration.

Terrorists need to take action or at least plan actual attacks. They want to be able to go after anyone who doesn't say they're stunning and brave.

TACO Tuesday again?

Ummm...

I'm ashamed to admit that I wonder if someone posted this on the Not The Onion topic.

Pfft what a goddamned clown show. The only constant is the bar keeps sinking lower underneath the floor.
