    I still can’t fucking believe that this verbally incontinent, senile, silver-spoon-deep-throating, walrus-looking, absolute shitbag is the guy we’re fucking up the entire system and body of law to protect, and 50% of the nation is seeing all of this and thinking, “yep, that’s my president.” It’s fucking incredible that a Burger King can operate with our per capita of knuckle-draggers, let alone a country.

      It’s really an antisocial thing. They want the world in flames so that their own pain burns away.

        I also think the root is pain, misery, trauma. They choose to hide it, but most importantly blame it on everyone but themselves. They choose the cult to be surrounded by enablers. No need for them to face the truth anymore.

    I wouldn’t overthink this one… Trump’s “dog whistles” are usually more of an air-raid-siren. Any shred of nuance or subtlety is most likely accidental.

    In this case, I strongly doubt there’s some deep meaning behind it - he’s just being an asshole by deliberately mispronouncing her name.

      Exactly. If he had real trouble with the name, the misspelling would vary. It’s just standard racism.

      My assumption was always the “afterthought” of this article: he’s trying to force the word “black” into her name.

      My thoughts were he’s combing with the star wars senator amadalla or whoever it is I’m thinking of

        Or the tiktok sound where they’re like ‘senator blah, chief commisioner blah, vice president blah!’ but I can’t remember enough about it to find it.

    I read a suggestion that he’s combining Kamala and Obama because he’s a dumb ass racist and that theory actually kind of tracks.

    You guys are reading way too much into it. He thinks he’s saying her same correctly. He’s a demented old man. You hear the shit this guy has been saying? Hannibal Lecter? Shark Lightning? Rapidoo?

    My guess is he’s trying to say “Kama-BLAH” as an insult. But no one’s picking up on it.

      Hm. I was thinking something more like “Ka-Mob-la” so it’s a dog whistle for racism based crime tropes.

    My guess is a typo which neither he, his sycophants, or his cult could ever bring themselves to admit, so they’ll just keep running with it and pretending it means something (a la “covfefe”).

      It’s probably assumed it’s his rapid cognitive decline.

      His supporters:

      “Oh that’s just his syphilis/dementia/dry mouth from methamphetamines…”

      I think he mispronounced it once and was made fun of for it, so now he is doubling down to try and convince people he did it on purpose as some sort of 4D chess insult no one but smart trump can understand.

    My guess is a take on “bla bla bla” Kamabla, to be condescending and bullying. Just a guess.

    If so, it’s obviously very childish, which is right in tune with everything trump and the GOP.
