Trump: "Even if you vote and pass away, it's worth it." You would think weather-conscious Iowans would bristle

at Trump's urging them to go out and caucus in the subzero temperatures, even if it means putting their lives at risk, but no.

Former President Trump encouraged his Iowa supporters to caucus for him at any cost, joking that due to extreme winter weather, “even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it.”

Meteorologists warned of “life-threatening” conditions in Iowa for the weekend as the state prepares to caucus. Trump canceled three of his four in-person Iowa events Sunday due to the freezing cold and snow.

Windchill is projected to be as low as -40 degrees in parts of the state Monday, with temperatures also in the negative. The Hawkeye State is also recovering from a blizzard that rocked the region Friday and Saturday, icing roads.

“You can’t sit home. If you’re sick as a dog, you say, ‘Darling, I gotta make it,’” Trump said at an Indianola rally on Sunday. “Even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it, remember.”

Do they not realize that this is just more proof that he literally could not give a shit if even his own supporters live or die?

They should also be reminded that in November 2020, he left thousands of people stranded in freezing temperatures at two different rallies by his campaign's effed-up attempts to shuttle people by bus to and from his clown shows.

Supporters of President Donald Trump were left stranded for hours Sunday night in cold weather after a campaign rally at Richard B. Russell Regional Airport in Rome, Georgia due to transportation issues, making it the third such incident in the past seven days. ...

The president’s supporters had been ferried to the event location on shuttle buses arranged by the campaign after leaving their cars in distant parking lots.

Many were left stranded after the event, waiting for hours, as the buses failed to take them back to their cars. ...

After a similar incident took place in Omaha last week, Democratic nominee Joe Biden compared Trump’s handling of his supporters with his handling of the pandemic, stating that the incident "captures President Trump's whole approach to this crisis." Biden then added: "He gets his photo op and he gets out. He leaves everyone else to suffer the consequence of his failure to make a responsible plan."

7. In the same situation, Joe Biden would've said, "Folks, I appreciate your support, but stay home! Take care of

yourselves and your loved ones. Your safety is much more important to me than any caucus."

And as a result, voters would have risked anything to vote for him. I know I would!

Love you, President Biden!

12. And They're Willing to Do It

According to what I heard on MSNBC this morning, the Dump supporters in Iowa are willing to go out in sub-zero temperatures and snow to go caucus for their guy.

I'd say that the governor or whomever runs this shit-show needs to postpone the caucuses until next week. But, they're probably in Dump's pocket anyway. They don't give a crap if their supporters die.

14. It reminds me ofthe Jim Carey movie "Liar, Liar." Carey's character is a lawyer who normally lies

blatantly ALL the time but suddenly CAN'T lie because of a spell cast by his son's wish as he blew out the candles on his birthday cake. There is a scene in which Carey is forced to attend a large meeting at his law firm and ends up telling his boss the unflattering truth of what Carey really thinks about him. There is a shocked silence, and then his boss bursts out laughing and says something like, "That's GREAT! Now do him!" So Carey goes around the room insulting everybody in attendance. They are all just in stitches, thinking it's just a joke. Here's the clip:

That's what Trump voters think. They find Trump's mistreatment of themselves hilarious and entertaining, and so they don't take it seriously when he asks them to die for him.

16. To his base, this passes as his fantastic sense of humor

Apparently, it may be just us who are appalled and consider it in bad taste.
