It is unfortunate that this is much too subtle for most people.

I just get crude and say the pickup drivers were only trying to get to the exist to 71, so that they could head on over to Lagrange, but the bus was making it hard for them – but, now, I might be mistaken.

I just did a quick google search and it’s possible I may just have coined a new term for Urban Dictionary.

Just to be clear, the cops saying Biden and co. are at fault are the same cops who took forever to show up to help when the Biden campaign staffers called 911 for help, right?

Maybe if they responded in a timely manner they could weigh in on who was at fault.

Looks like that pickup is doing some pretty serious tailgating.

And watching the video, it’s not entirely clear, as the one taking it doesn’t show the whole thing, but it certainly does show the pickup swerving into the suv, not the other way around.

When the video is first looking at the bus, the SUV is directly behind it. When the video goes back to the bus, the SUV is now pushed to the left, and the Pickup is behind it.

I think that the cops are full of shit on this one.

You have a gift for digging up the most obscure clickbait “news” sites. Do you have some sort of financial arrangement with these bullshit internet tabloids?

All the above said, I don’t doubt agzem’s point that the cops did, in fact, blame it on the Biden staffer. I expect next they’ll be mailing traffic tickets to the Biden campaign on behalf of whoever was driving the bus.

Didja all see that story about the Trump Truckers blocking several New York bridges but all the cops did was arrest a few pro-Biden counterprotesters?

Yeah, my concern if Biden does win tomorrow is the rioting and burning down of cities by the police.

They also stopped traffic on the Garden State Parkway, which should be punishable by death.

I’ve been told on this site that causing traffic problems is an excuse for pepper-spraying kids, and yet no kids were sprayed this time. Weird.

It looks like you used an acronym without explaining what it means. Don’t assume everyone in the thread knows.

Hover your mouse pointer over it and behold!

(ETA: If you’re using a mobile device, I’m not sure how you do that except I vaguely recall reading that it’s doable.)

But it isn’t trolling. It’s a(n arguable) statement of fact.
