They're worse than ISIS.
ISIS was borne in war-ravaged areas where there's a scarcity of food, water, education & health care & virtually no press to report on atrocities.
The US, according to Trump, is in an age of glorious greatness never seen before, the greatest country ever run by the most benevolent smart & stable genius - not to mention healthiest - dear leader ever to salute an American flag with the bluest of stripes.
Did you see the latest Sacha Baron Cohen "Who is America?" Why are Trumpsters so angry & hateful & upset - that they'd be willing to kill peaceful protestors?
Because they have been carefully taught to hate & fear.
Just like ISIS - but worse. Because they're Americans who should know better.
GOP voters are very prissy people. They're SO particular about who they support, right? (eyeroll)
Mention W to a GOprick now. Same as McCain. And Romney.
GOP voters hate McCain now - because they see him as being disloyal to the current POTUS BLOTUS.
So it's loyalty thing with them. Period. Question mark?
They call McCain the war hero a traitor - because that's what Five Deferment Donny wants them to do.
Loyalty to Trump. Trump! A guy who's never been loyal to any other person his whole life.
The base-base of the GOP denounce their old leaders. Rabidly.
Just as they denied W's & McCain's & Romney's faults & foibles during campaigns to rabidly support them.
The GOP has whiplash. They're whipped by Trump. Whipped into a frenzy. Whipped into mobs. Whipped.
I think the restaurant made a mistake in kicking her out. They should've taken her order then told her that they'd 'get back to you on that..."
If Sarah Huckabee Sanders had come out after getting turned away & made the announcement "Based on who & what I am, I was discriminated against. It didn't feel great. Now I understand what others feel. This is not what America is, it's not what will make America great."
But she didn't. She used her position to name names & give addresses (too bad that Rethugs are geographically challenged)
Joe Biden was turned away from a bakery in Roanoke in 2012 & you didn't hear him whine about it all over the world.
I just saw a post here by some Rethug who thinks she's being discriminated against because she's a Rethug. Or because he's a straight (he says!) male. Because GOPricks really really need to perceive themselves as victims. Womp womp!
We no longer have freedom? This country is controlled by a leftist tyranny?
Don't you think you're being just a TAD hyperbolic, cupcake?
Oh you GOPricks. You're a group of Chicken Littles! Drama queens. Hysteria! Be afraid! You're not SAFE!
On the one hand, you say Democrats are so weak. But then they're so powerful they're coming for you!
For 8 years under Obama you were convinced that your guns & bibles were going to be confiscated. They weren't. It was never part of the Dem platform despite your raw hysteria & daily freakouts.
Meanwhile, despite your rhetoric, the ONLY elected official who ever suggested 'gun confiscation' was 5 Deferment Donny Trump himself. Yup! In Feb 2018 he said "Take the guns while I eat my cannoli with 2 scoops" http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/376097-trump-take-the-guns-first-go-through-due-process-second
The sky is falling!
You're right. It won't be effective. And Mexico will never pay for it.
People support it because they don't understand the issue. A wall won't be effective against illegal immigration because most illegal immigrants arrive in the USA by plane, they don't cross our Southern border. They apply for & receive travel or work or student visas & then don't leave when the visas expire
.
People support it because they don't understand geography. A wall won't be effective against illegal immigration because the border is almost 2000 miles long. I doubt that any real fiscal conservative would justify that infrastructure expense while our roads & bridges are falling apart everywhere else. Also? A River Runs through it. How do you build a wall across a river?
People support it because they don't understand ladders. Or tunnels. Or catapults. Or doors. A wall won't be effective against illegal immigration.
Facts not in evidence re: forced separation of immigrant children families? Anytime I bitched or anytime I moaned.
I'm outraged that trolls like you can't have honest discussions about seemingly anything.
How do I know this about you when my presence here is so new?
The evident fact that you can't stay on topic, that you deflect, that you make pitiable attempts to obfuscate.
Fact! We Libtards DID take Pres Obama to task about his massive deportations. Strange that you're not praising Obama because his policies seem to reflect yours.
Fact! Trump has told the GOP leaders in the House & Senate to stop working on immigration reform & to concentrate on re-elections. Why? Because HE is using the kids as props. Poor privileged Daddy's boy Trump! He was POWERLESS to intercede on the kids behalf because those pesky DEMOCRATS had enacted these magic SPELLS on the border.
You & the Moron in Chief are trolls who are uninterested in solving any problems. You just want to deliberately misunderstand the issues, blame other people for the problems & then campaign on manufactured outrage. Keep doing that! The basest base of American red-neckery is enamored with your bullshittery.
And that's no way to MAGA, maggot.
SAD!
SMDH, Satan. In a post where you claim someone else is bullshitting, you just unzipped your rusty fly, released the dazed flies from your unwashed pants, lowered your shit stained tightie WHITIES & shat in front of the choir. Satan, you ARE the weakest link and you ARE a certified Shitstain.
Timelines. Introduce yourself to them.
Facts. Discover them.
Reality. Is not your home.
You're a silly troll. Let me guess! In the next SHITSTAIN post you blame Obama for Prince Philip's War.
MUSLIM! MARXIST!
VIOLENCE! BLOODBATH!
MAINE-IACS!!!!!!!!!!
Try to set your hysterics aside. Witnesses are still being interviewed about this fight AND THE FINAL REPORT WILL BE RELEASED NEXT WEEK.
Officers involved & reporters in Lewiston said that REPORTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA & OTHER OUTLETS ARE NOT ACCURATE.
(Go ahead! Call the Lewiston cops! The number is 207-513-3138)
The guy who died, Donny Guisti, was "a known brawler " & a "father of 2 who was trying to turn his life around." NOTE: I'm a LIBERAL so I don't have a preconceived idea that the white guy is bad & the black refugees are good - or vice versa. If I was a FASCIST like Satan, I might have left out the part where he was a father of 2 trying to turn his life around.
I'm waiting for the facts to come in.
Did I mention that the investigation is not over?
While you wait, look up the history of Somali refugees in Lewiston. The mill town has been brought back from the dead by the influx of these people. Newsweek Magazine did a profile on the impact these Muslims have had on the town. Unlike you, that story reflected on the skills & the economic turnaround. There has been struggle, there have been setbacks, but there's NO DOUBT that they revived Lewiston - which was a dying mill town. THEY FUCKING HELPED THE LOCAL TEAM WIN SOCCER CHAMPIONSHIPS. Oh! And there was a movie made about this intergrated population. Check out the documentary movie called "One Team."
But you won't.
Because this story is incomplete & you've already twisted the facts. Facts. You've published FAKE NEWS. Also? The POSITIVE stories about this community don't jibe with the stories YOU like to pass around.
Maybe you ought to cancel your subscription to the sources that are feeding you incomplete & biased bulls hit?
Check your bias, stop spreading FAKE NEWS. Wait for the ACTUAL FUCKING RESULTS of the police investigation BEFORE you comment.
You're not helping.
Stop wasting time on working on a comprehensive immigration bill & get elected instead?
Well? That's the strategy that works for the GOP.
See, if the GOP House & the GOP Senate & the GOP Executive actually PASS a comprehensive immigration bill then they can't CAMPAIGN on the immigration issue.
Then they won't be able to froth up their mobs with their hysterical rhetoric like: "They're INFESTING our country! STEALING jobs! RAPING our bot boys! Be VERY afraid!"
Then there's the irrational "The Democrats want open borders!" talking point. This one's tricky because they also need to blame the family separations on the Democrats. And as Rethugs here on this board have pointed out - what's NEEDED for these miscreant families is a HARSH PUNISHMENT for crossing our border illegally. And as noted above, the DEMS are the ones responsible for passing the family separation law.
What Trump doesn't want to admit is that he's incapable of having an honest discussion on the topic.
Once again proving that there's NO art in any of Trump's deals.
I'd also like to add my thoughts and prayers to Corey and all the Coreys everywhere, who find themselves in the situation of having to face the consequences of their very own words & their very despicable actions.
After Romney's defeat, a Republican autopsy was commissioned after yet another privileged white Daddy's boy ran for President & lost the popular vote.
In 2013 when the report came out, Republicans had lost the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 presidential elections.
This 100 page "autopsy" of the Romney loss added analytic recommendations to grow opportunities. (Sorry, that's GOP-speak -but after 2016, the opportunity for growth GREW!) SMDH.
Reagan was the hero of the GOP but in 2012, no one under the age of 51 was old enough to vote for Reagan.
So the report suggested that they cultivate young voters. And what does the GOP do? They reduce investments in renewables & double down on COAL. Coughers gonna cough!
The report suggested that the GOP cultivate minority voters. So what does the GOP do? Well, Breitbart featured a column on its homepage titled "Black Crime." because haters gonna hate.
The autopsy also had a lot to say about whistleblowing & corporate malfeasance. This is big. The suggestion was that they attack corporate welfare & executives who take bonuses after they liquidate their companies & leave workers unemployed. Yeah. Seriously. They put this in the report. Strait face. So what does the GOP do? Tax cuts for the wealthiest! Let's give Trickle Down Economics another try! What's that you say? We're going to have to cut Social Security & Medicare? Tough tax breaking titties.
The report said the RNC/GOP ought to "foster an environment of intellectual curiosity" & a "culture of data & learning." LOL I could NOT type that with a straight face. "What books have you read, Mr Trump?" "My own!" FAKE NEWS!
And here's my favorite part of this Frankenstein's monster of an autopsy. It concludes that Hispanic Americans perceive that the GOP DOES NOT WANT THEM IN THE US and that the RNC must improve efforts to LEARN HOW TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS IMPORTANT DEMOGRAPHIC.
"I'd much rather live next door to someone who crossed a desert to become an American than an American who wouldn't cross the street to help a foreigner. "
I guess I missed this You Gov poll.
BTW? If you use a poll as some sort of authority to support a point you're attempting to make you're also proclaiming that we should trust what the polls say.
Do you? Trust what polls say? Polls are ALWAYS right? Polls should ALWAYS be considered?
Good to know.
Didn't Cohen have 3 clients? Daddy's boy T-rump, Sean Hannity & the GOPrick co-Finance chair of the Republican National Committee Elliott Broidy.
Broidy is the one who had Cohen work out a $1.6 million dollar payout to a Playboy model so that she could have an abortion. (Note to self: send donation to Planned Parenthood before the hypocritical hysterics on the reich turn this country into Gilead)
It's going to be mighty chilly around Melania or in the Hannity household when it comes out that Broidy actually had a vasectomy back in 1997.
Grab your popcorn!
You just named 4 celebrities who you say have come unglued because they spoke or wrote something you find offensive.
Might I introduce you drama queens to the 1st Amendment?
No?
How about an abacus? I know that you Rethugs have problems with basic Arithmetic, but by all calculations FOUR liberal celebrities is still more celebrity than you GOPricks could muster up.
There is no art in ANY of Trump's deals.
Since the 1950's North Korea has been wanting to be taken seriously on the world stage. The North Korean leaders have had penis envy watching South Korea thrive as a manufacturing hub, watching other nations enter the 21st century when they can't keep lights on at night.
Decades of human rights abuses have been recorded there.
And Trump's takeaway is that KJU is some terrific, terrific guy, very smart, very powerful, a really great leader for his people.
Hi!
I'm a libtard.
My outrage is real.
Therefore, you're a liar.
Bye!
First? She wasn't destroyed. She won more votes. Over 70 million people voted for someone other than the vulgar yam now occupying the White House.
2nd? Your hypothetical scenario is bullshit on many levels. '...separating families would've continued on without a word..." If you tried to testify to this statement in court, you'd be laughed off the stand. Try to stop imagining what people who you don't know or understand would do in some future you conjur in your very limited imagination.
3rd? You mention that 'the process' was implemented during her husband's presidency.
To what process are you referring? Surely you can cite the statute. I've seen this talking point regurgitated all across the reich wing bot-sphere, but none of you can ever cite the statute. Interesting thing, they always mention the year 1997 in their "But the DEMS did it!" screeds. You DO realize that the GOP was the majority party in the House AND Senate starting January 3, 1997? That means that your talking point is bullshit. And you know why you can't cite a statute? It's because HER HUSBAND never signed any bill like the one you you pretend to understand.
4th? Fake crisis? To distract? Fake crises to distract were INVENTED by the GOP. Black people want to vote! Gays want to marry! Trans people need to pee in restrooms! They're coming to take your guns & bibles away! Sharia law! Be afraid! Be very very afraid. You really are a bunch of hyperbolic drama queens, & Trump is the biggest queen of all.
But what is FAKE about *this* crisis? Families ARE being torn apart. Do you deny this? Is THAT why your guys won't allow cameras into the "summer camps?" Deniability? In some GOP text books of the future, will you deny that 2500 kids were separated from their families starting in April of 2018? This POTUS already calls the stories much ado about "PHONY sob stories?" Prepare yourself to switch gears from arguing "it was the Dem's policy that made us do it!" to "It never happened at all."
And if you think that there was an IG report to the Senate which "destroyed!" - what? the 15th Clinton email investigation? You're in dire need of fresh tin foil for your haberdashery.
Last? If you think that the Trump Russia investigation is also "destroyed!" you're in for a rash of disapointment.
My mother used to call political pundits on cable panel shows "talking hairdos." Even a bald guy like Steve Schmidt was a hairdo. He was a partisan guy providing the talking point of the day.
Krauthammer & Schmidt & Frum & Navarro & others who watched their party turn to Trump were responsible for Trump. I agree.
But when one of the talking hairdos steps out of talking point mode & into some semblance of sanity, I can appreciate it. I do appreciate it.
Still. They didn't speak out after Reagan secretly sold arms to the terrorists who had held Americans hostage? They didn't speak out after watching Trickle Down Economics fail - again? They didn't speak against their party when the Supreme Court stole a Presidential election or when the House Majority Leader stole a Supreme Court seat? They didn't protest when their party leaders lied us into a war that took hundreds of thousands of lives, costs billions or trillions of dollars & cost us the goodwill & respect of the world.
No. Nor did they speak out when the market started turning back around after the GLOBAL FINANCIAL COLLAPSE & after unemployment started to drop. No. That's when those talking hairdos REALLY went to work. They started attacking the STATS. Remember their talking point during Obama's recovery? "But what about the people who have STOPPED looking for work?"
So let me channel my inner John McClane. I've been fighting GOP BS for years. Die Hard. So to Schmidt & Frum & Navarro & other former GOPricks I yell from a cracked window on the barricade "Welcome to the party, pals!"
What is Trump actually achieving, aside from chaos? He spent years talking about how terrible & ineffective our immigration laws are & he spent the last week essentially admitting how he was to change the EXISTING strict laws.
I mean he DID blame the separation of children from parents on the Democrats, didn't he? And he also said that he would fix it all & get the best immigration laws ever - but for those pesky Democrats.
But didn't he say just today that "The Democrats want Open Borders?
Chaos.
Months ago, Trump sat in a room with Dems & Rethugs & said 'bring me a bill & I'll sign it" referring to DACA. They did. They brought him a compromise & he refused to sign it.
But he draws crowds! But MAGA! And rather than have a real talk about immigration issues - who's here, who's coming here, how they get there, how long they've been here, WHAT THE REAL STATISTICS ARE, T-rump uses the same old bullshit talking point that Rethugs always do. The old 'you're either with us or against us" line.
When you make speeches using the phrase "The Democrats are for open borders... " - you're not looking for honest debate, honest solutions, you're not trying to solve any problems or even understand what the problems are. When you use words like 'infestation' & 'rapists' & 'crime' that's not only insidious, you're manufacturing outrage. You're trolling. You're not solving a thing.
Aren't you tired of carrying T-rump's bullshit?
So what HAS T-rump actually achieved on immigration except to cause chaos in families & turn the Statue of Liberty into a liar?
You're right about one thing. That vulgar orange yam "and his hair" currently pretending to be POTUS is not who I voted for.
And I'm in the majority.
