Because it’s irrelevant. The point is that 6 candidates raised their hands. Which not only includes those leading in the polls behind Trump but also Mike Pence himself!
What is being comunicated in the image is that every republican nominee says they will support Trump. That is simply a lie; and the image was cropped specifically to make that lie.
The cropping is not accurate to the question asked at the debate, but every candidate there signed a pledge to back whoever wins the GOP primary, and right now that includes Trump as an option.
So for Hutchinson and Christie, the only way this image is not an accurate representation of their stances (if not how they answered the question on stage) is if we assume that they were lying when signing the “loyalty pledge” document that was a requirement for even being on the stage at all.
Christie in particular opposed Trump in the 2016 election…all the way until Trump got the nomination, at which point Christie became an ardent Trump supporter. I think it’s reasonable to assume this is a repeat of that track record on his part.
You’re making an assumption. I’m the one who made this image and I did not crop it specifically to “make that lie.” I cropped it to show the six people that were holding their hands up.
If someone is coming to a political meme community looking for accurate information, let’s all be good stewards and direct them to actual reputable news sources.
This is rank both-siderism bullshit. This is a funny meme about the hypocrisy of some candidates. It’s nothing like the absolute fabrication of events the republicans engage in en masse. Go spread your bullshit elsewhere, and stop making space for Nazis.
Lmao thanks for trying to paint me into a box I don’t belong in. I have never and will likely never vote for any Republican candidate, especially any with ties to trump.
I’m not whataboutisming here, I’m suggesting that the OP hid context to paint a specific narrative. Even if I agree with that narrative (all R bad), it’s gross to see explicit manipulation in action.
All sides should demand better. Memes that paint everyone with a broad brush are what caused us to be so hyper partisan.
Jesus fucking Christ. You’re engaging in both-siderist bullshit and presenting this harmless fucking meme in the same space as a Nazi agenda to fucking genocide trans people, destroy the climate and create a white ethnostate. That’s the kind of shit they tell lies to advance. Meanwhile this is… an accurate meme of the six people who are actually depicted. The only way this could possibly be construed as misleading is if you’re fucking dumb enough to decide that six people are actually eight.

Christie caught Covid from Trump while helping him prep for a presidential debate against Biden. LOL
What they say is worthless. Even Christie will vote for trump if he’s the nominee. 100%

Thanks for unwittingly continuing the spreading of misinformation on the Internet. It sucks here more because of situations like this.

I don’t fucking care about your life story when you’re literally making space for Nazis, moron. Your intent means less than nothing.
Please elaborate. How am I making space for Nazis?
