How can anyone pretend this is normal?
It's all a media creation they tell themselves perhaps?

Re: How can anyone pretend this is normal?
I just posted it in the Comey thread but if you get a chance read this Washington Post article with survey data. As long as the base is so wildly approving of the president, republicans won't do anything substantive. And they approve of him because they get their information from the propaganda arm of the white house.

and you also have to remember that the deplorables who spent 8 years having to endure a smart, educated, respectful black president conduct himself with integrity has created a level of seething hatred for America that they're willing to tolerate most anything as it begins to crumble.

This is a bit over the top but there's definitely something there.
Will read the WaPo a bit later. Thanks.

Re: How can anyone pretend this is normal?
if you sit back and remember how the right reacted to Barack Obama and how they now react to the sexual predator, I don't see it as "over the top" at all - their total hatred and disgust for a country that could elect a black man has fueled their tolerance for the current administration.. they are willing to overlook anything in order to watch that country burn.WhiteBoyHatcher wrote:Robert J Sakimano wrote:this.

Republicans are complicit in turning our country into an authoritarian oligarchy. Unless there is a major shift in the GOP's mindset stunts like Comey's firing and McConnell holding up a Supreme Court nomination are going be seen as minor league in decade.

I'm all for the entertainment, but it's getting a bit weird. President Pence might have to really step up and be a statesman. Hopefully he renounces his past efforts of praying gay away and moves on when he takes over.

Re: How can anyone pretend this is normal?
I actually don't think Trump is going to make it. Guy is completely off the rails, and his approval is dropping among uneducated white guys.
He's black mailing Comey over twitter today is completely out of bounds. Screw the Trump voter/supporters, it's time to protect our country from the damage this buffoon will cause.

How will you do this? Armed insurrection? Impeachment of an R President with R's controlling the House and Senate? Or did you have something else in mind?
Keep consoling yourself that the dumbasses are catching on.

lol, yes they could impeach Trump and put a REAL conservative in his place. IF this happens and I give it a 50/50 that Pence does become President somehow - within a month EVERY Leftist will hate Pence with the same fury that they hate Trump. It's what they do. As Bob talks of Right wing Hate he ignores all the hate spewing from the left.

Re: How can anyone pretend this is normal?
If it makes you feel better, I super hate Pence already and think he is the very definition of a monster. But I'm pretty sure he's at least competent enough to not get all of us killed. So that's a plus. Plus he wouldn't have been an elected president, and by the time any of this hypothetical actually happens we'd be pretty darn close to 2018 so I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have a chance to do most of his worst maniacally insane ideas.LooseGoose wrote:Travis of the Cosmos wrote:

I hate him and what he stands for now. Taking choices away from women, praying gay away, destroying any semblance of health care for millions of people. But my side lost. I have to eat it for 3 1/2 years. His side won. That's America. But for the love of god, at least we'll sleep at night knowing we don't have a lunatic in chatge

Trump is a con man and a buffoon. The "hate" for Trump is a recognition that he's a con man and a buffoon. Surely, someone who called him an "asshole" understands that. This isn't a purely left vs. right political issue. You know that...you just won't admit it...any more.

I loved the Devos speech last week. WTF did they think would happen when they let a blatant racist speak at a predominantly black college?

Pence >>>> Trump
Yes, he's a fundamentalist christian nut but at least he'll uphold a level of normalcy.

I realize that Trump is a buffoon. But for any honest person to say the Dem reaction to his election is abnormal tells me they're uninformed or kidding themselves. Think I'm full of shit? OK, I'll provide you with some history - if you dispute it, look it up. If you want to call me a liar then I'll provide you a link and wait for an apology.
The Democrat playbook has been to delegitimize the election of any R President. Think back to 2000. Gore was so much smarter than Bush, so much more qualified than Bush. The media convinced many of that including most if not all of you and you still believe it today.
Strangely the educational facts tell a different story - it'll be interesting to see degreed people here argue that all that means nothing. But the facts are that George W. Bush had a higher undergraduate GPA than Gore. Bush also earned an MBA from Harvard. Gore dropped out of 2 different post graduate programs and never obtained an advanced degree.
And never forget that Gore invented the internet.....ooops...well that sounds like something Trump would say.
But carrying on from the the media did all they could to help Gore over the finish line. They dumped an old DUI of Bush's on the weekend before the election. They called Florida before the polls were closed in the panhandle thus suppressing the GOP vote there.
After the election and in the 16 years since the Dems have done everything they can to plant doubt over who won the election. This in spite of EVERY count and recount done by ANY organization has ALWAYS shown bush to have won Florida. Yet we still hear how the Supreme Court "gave" Bush the election. It's bullshit and they know it.
And now? With Trump? Again, I realize that Trump is a buffoon. I've said here many times. I've hoped his advisers would steer him along and he'd do OK. So far he's not made any hugely wrong decisions that affect the country. Maybe that will remain the case, maybe it won't. I don't know. But I seethe with anger every time I hear this "Russian" shit because I know it's a fucking replay of Florida. It's spoiled little brat Dems not being able to admit they lost. Because of that that're willing to sow every seed of discord they can. They're willing to tear this country apart so they can somehow score a "win".
And all of you go along and support them in that. Fine. Just remember the old saw about reaping the whirlwind. Trump's election was a peaceable whirlwind, I hope it's the only one.
Tell me how this would have been played if the parties were reversed????

And all of you go along and support them in that. Fine. Just remember the old saw about reaping the whirlwind. Trump's election was a peaceable whirlwind, I hope it's the only one.
Tell me how this would have been played if the parties were reversed????

I realize that Trump is a buffoon. But for any honest person to say the Dem reaction to his election is abnormal tells me they're uninformed or kidding themselves. Think I'm full of shit? OK, I'll provide you with some history - if you dispute it, look it up. If you want to call me a liar then I'll provide you a link and wait for an apology.
The Democrat playbook has been to delegitimize the election of any R President. Think back to 2000. Gore was so much smarter than Bush, so much more qualified than Bush. The media convinced many of that including most if not all of you and you still believe it today.
Strangely the educational facts tell a different story - it'll be interesting to see degreed people here argue that all that means nothing. But the facts are that George W. Bush had a higher undergraduate GPA than Gore. Bush also earned an MBA from Harvard. Gore dropped out of 2 different post graduate programs and never obtained an advanced degree.
And never forget that Gore invented the internet.....ooops...well that sounds like something Trump would say.
But carrying on from the the media did all they could to help Gore over the finish line. They dumped an old DUI of Bush's on the weekend before the election. They called Florida before the polls were closed in the panhandle thus suppressing the GOP vote there.
After the election and in the 16 years since the Dems have done everything they can to plant doubt over who won the election. This in spite of EVERY count and recount done by ANY organization has ALWAYS shown bush to have won Florida. Yet we still hear how the Supreme Court "gave" Bush the election. It's bullshit and they know it.
And now? With Trump? Again, I realize that Trump is a buffoon. I've said here many times. I've hoped his advisers would steer him along and he'd do OK. So far he's not made any hugely wrong decisions that affect the country. Maybe that will remain the case, maybe it won't. I don't know. But I seethe with anger every time I hear this "Russian" shit because I know it's a fucking replay of Florida. It's spoiled little brat Dems not being able to admit they lost. Because of that that're willing to sow every seed of discord they can. They're willing to tear this country apart so they can somehow score a "win".

GOP Congressman Outraged That Barack Obama Wore a Tan Suit
Summer suits, according to Rep. King, are not appropriate garb for talking about terrorism or ISIS, and especially when the President says he doesn’t have a strategy to deal with the resurgence of terrorism.
“For him to walk out — I’m not trying to be trivial here — in a light suit, light tan suit, saying that first he wants to talk about what most Americans care about the revision of second quarter numbers on the economy,” he seethed.

I believe that was a signal between the colored boy and Muslim terrorists that all was well. Summer suits have many uses.

Don't forget how Barack and Michelle were terrorists because they bumped fists.

Re: How can anyone pretend this is normal?
I'll take Pence. Don't give two fucks if I differ from him on issues. Where do I sign him up?
I'm sure the left would have issues with Pence. But if anyone thinks it would reach this decibel level they are kidding themselves. There's a reason it has reached this decibel level, and unfortunately many of us realize it's only going to get louder because the buffoon will continue to buffoon.
Trump is well beyond the D vs. R battle at this point. He's a danger to all of us.
