You’re just going to have to explain it to me…(Trump Edition)

[Bray123]

Why does the right give equal weight to two opposing ideas and not realize that is what they are doing? For example, their mantra ‘socialism is bad’ and should be stomped out. Yet in the very next breath, they are screaming to support the police.

A police force is a prime example of socialism in practice. That’s just one example of hundreds. Why for the right does political rhetoric overshadow the least bit of critical thinking skills?

Also, road building/repairs, military, education (yes, I know Project 2025 wants to get rid of public education).

MAGATs can go build their own roads for their lifted trucks. Keep off our socialist highways.

You’re just going to have to explain it to me…why Trump is the right choice for this country for the next four years.

Trump had more success in his four years in office than Biden, who has failed and lied about his mental ability to do the job he was elected to do. Joe Biden has failed on the border, in Afghanistan, and the Middle East, and has now positioned us for a war with Russia that Kamala Harris has no negotiating skills to deflect or direct as a Commander in Chief.

BS, there is no correlation between the existence of a police force, or a standing army, and Socialism as a political and economic ideology that advocates for the collective or government ownership and management of the means of production, distribution, and exchange. The difference is our Constitution when properly enforced deters Socialism and Communism.

Lets go back to private fire brigades like in the “Gangs of New York” that Vance likes so much or was that ‘rump?

Socialism !

Now? Show me some communism in the US
Show me a communist in this country
A communist party?

We've made amendments to the Constitution that employs pieces of socialism because it is what is good for the country and people.

Why do you hate America?

Nope. Sorry, you don’t just get to say “my dick is 20” long” without non-AI-enhanced proof. Either list out Trump’s ACTUAL successes (good luck finding any) with documented proof to back it up, or just STFU.

Afghanistan was a dumpster fire in the middle of a clusterfuck in a sea of acid. GW Bush got us into it and kept us in two wars backed up with flat out LIES and while Obama tried to get us out without too much collateral damage, it was TRUMP that started the ball rolling for the pull out and it was his shitty plan that Biden was stuck with. Biden at least followed through with it, but it was never going to be easy. Trump wanted to invite the TALIBAN to fucking Camp David for shit sake! Sure! Why not invite Vlad Pootie and Lil Kim into the Situation Room and the Pentagon while you’re at it?

How in the actual FUCK do you know that Harris doesn’t have the skills to keep us out of a war? Trump has been licking Pootie’s ass and giving him fuck knows what kinds of intelligence on Ukraine. Trump can’t even run his own businesses without going bankrupt multiple times, where Harris was the Attorney General of California and a Senator! Trump wouldn’t even read his daily briefing for fuckssake!

Pull your head our of your ass to see some sunshine.

Law and order aren't socialism. Socialism is the discarding of law and order to impose rule by fiat.

Trump’s list: 289 accomplishments in just 20 months, ‘relentless’ promise-keeping
By
Paul Bedard
October 12, 2018 12:43 pm


The Trump administration’s often overlooked list of achievements has surpassed those of former President Ronald Reagan at this time and more than doubled since the last tally of accomplishments after his first year in office, giving President Trump a solid platform to run for re-election on.

As Trump nears the two-year mark of his historic election and conducts political rallies around the country, during which he talks up his wins in hopes it will energize Republican voters, the administration has counted up 289 accomplishments in 18 categories, capped by the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

They include 173 major wins, such as adding more than 4 million jobs, and another 116 smaller victories, some with outsize importance, such as the 83 percent one-year increase in arrests of MS-13 gang members.

“Trump’s successes in reducing the cost of taxes and regulations, rebuilding our military, avoiding wars of choice and changing the courts rival those of all previous Republican presidents,” said Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform.

The list is too long to post but it's there in the link. You don't like the source fuck off. Now you give us a comparable list of Kamala's ACTUAL accomplishments from any source or you shut the fuck up.

The DNC talks like Trump is the incumbent. Harris is going to control the border and lower prices starting on day one. Welp!!! day I was approximately 1,300 days ago. They are a comical gullible group them dems.

 

[Bray123]

Trump released 5,000 Taliban prisoners back into the war, MAGATs tried to blame Biden but they're not too bright so nobody was fooled.

That's because Anna Navarro is an idiot with no clue about real communism. There is simply nothing comparable to communism in the Trump administration. Democrats are simply projecting their policies onto Trump to confuse less educated people in their party.

Is Trump a bigger socialist than Biden?​

Both men are lured by the strong arm of the state

Neither has any compunctions about using massive deficit-spending to boost economic growth. Neither is averse to picking economic winners and losers by helping industries they favor and crippling those they don't via regulations and mandates. Trump, Lincicome notes, has been quite adept at using Uncle Sam to slam industries that hurt his America First agenda — and boost those that help it. Biden, meanwhile, is a typical Democrat who wants to use Big Government to tax rich companies and individuals and pursue a redistributive liberal agenda.

What do you call election denying, j6, 34 felony convictions, and sexual abuse?

The things he did during those four years certainly are.

 

[Lazaran]

The things he did during those four years certainly are.

Not to mention, the mess that Shrub left Obama / Biden, and the mess Trump left Biden / Harris hamstrung their administrations and dictated much of their actions. ("republicans" in congress and a corrupt right wing majority SCOTUS also limited Democrats ability to truly provide solutions and protections for Americans.)

Contrast that ^ with the conditions Shrub and Trump inherited from Bill Clinton and Barack Obama respectively.

 

[PaxNurgle]

Why? It appears from your voluminous diatribe that you've made up your mind and aren't going to listen to reason or common sense.


I await the Wailing On The Sidewalk remake.

You have no common sense to offer.

Only endless diatribes, willful ignorance, and hypocrisy with a complete absense of logic or critical thinking. Oh, and an ever-growing army of screen aliases, but that's a whole other issue.

You demonstrate it right here with your first post, implying that the only alternative to Trump's extremism is "Socialism." A common misconception among the brainwashed idiots; nowhere did Harris, Walz, or Biden advocate government takeover of private industries, collectivization of agriculture, or nationalization of housing and private property. Which is the actual real definition of "Socialism." (And no, advocating for racial and social equality does not equal marxism or socialism, only a backwoods idiot bigot believes that.)

People with training in effective techniques of persuasion take their knowledge to more productive venues. Nothing said here will change a vote. This is a place for popcorn and exercise by laughing asses off and pounding keyboards. And then someone will eventually win, starting a new round of cheers and tears.

There are members here who pop in just for curiosity or to see what's being said on certain relevant topics. They do not care to interact with the cesspool members here (and I'm including myself), but I'm of the belief that they are smart enough to tell someone spinning lies and someone attempting to find answers or who is being honest. This is, at its heart, a literary site as well as a sex one. Plenty of smart folks reside here. I think those members watching but not posting far outnumber the regulars here. Even if I'm wrong, I know that I've personally used information I've learned from others here to reshape my own beliefs as well as for ammo in social conversations.

Well okay then, that is one thing Trump did accomplish. I will give him credit for this. Trump did, in fact, accomplish quite a bit. He was successful in his accomplishments, at that. For starters he:

-Pulled the U.S. out of a global warming treaty.
-Made the Middle East more unstable by backing out of a peace treaty with Iran
-Moved the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, further enraging and alienating Israel's enemies; both this and the one above contributed to the general instability and hostilities that are current in the Middle East.
-stacked the Supreme Court with three lackeys who have a disregard for the Bill or Rights and the Constitution, undermining basic liberties and separation of powers
-undermined environmental laws, resulting in more pollution, heath hazards and envirnmental degredation.
-Locked up women and children in cages and subjected them to inhuman treatment
-Pardoned war criminals
-undermined the Department of Education and the EPA by appointing lackeys who were set to dismantle those institutions
-raised taxes on the middle class while lowering taxes on the rich, resulting in record budget deficits.
-emboldened Russia and China by turning America's back on our allies.

He did all of this and more. Yes, by that measure, Trump was successful.

But now here's the thing: NONE OF THIS WAS ACTUALLY GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY!! In fact, ALL of the above was, in fact, VERY, VERY BAD for the country.

The measure of a leader's success should be measured not in what they accomplished, but rather by what they did to improve the well being of the country and people they govern. By this measure, Trump should, rightfully, be regarded as an abysmal failure.
