What you don't understand.

[Wrong Element]

I look at the technique used on Paul Manafort and Roger Stone and it's a winning strategy. Why don't the PUBS act as aggressive as Dems. Why!!!! when the pubs had the house and senate didn't they put a stop to the Mueller investigation. Even Trey G admitted to fucking up. We're just starting to understand the disadvantages of having a weak speaker in Ryan, Nancy slapped the shit out of him.

Yes, why can't the GOP (which conducted a half dozen separate Benghazi investigations) be as ruthless as the Democratic president, who ... (checks notes) ... appointed a Republican as FBI Director, who then proceeded to kneecap the Democratic candidate for president 11 days before an election, all the while keeping secret the simultaneous investigation of Donald Trump.

You fuckers will twist yourselves into a pretzel with your defense of the failed and forever impeached President.

Nah, because the best the competition has to offer is a serial rapist with Alzheimer's.

It could be a literal cardboard cutout, it doesn't matter. They could replace Joe by a random guy tomorrow, it wouldn't change the game one bit at this point. It is kind of pity that they didn't play more boldly in such circumstances, but, better safe than sorry they tried to select the most unobtrusive and therefore boring candidate they had.

except that we know for a fact that trump is a serial philanderer, habitual liar, and most likely has a debilitating case of onset dementia. your shit is lies and speculation. big difference but you'll have some irrelevant comeback and thinks you "won."

 

[Conager]

What's "onset dementia?"

Trump, so far, has no kind of dementia. He actually submitted to a battery of tests to silence those suggesting it. They shut up, you are still, once again, parroting an abandoned narrative.

Those same voices are not interested in suggesting Biden undergo such an evaluation.

The Psychologists that eagerly violated their professional standards and the "Goldwater Rule" and "diagnosed" Trump from afar, are similarly disinterested in Biden.

 

[schism666]

google it.

trump's own doctor said he fibbed some results, that's not parroting anyone besides the guy doing the the testing.

 

[Conager]

Perhaps you mean early-onset dementia? Far as I know, there's nothing called late-onset dementia or right-on-time dementia.

 

[FlowersForFun]

100% agree with you about what they've settled on and the game they are playing.

I think it's a stupid move to try and please both the social liberals and the "progressive" neo-Maoist under an "Orange Man Bad" banner despite their direct opposition to one another on most core values/ideals.

It is kind of pity that they didn't play more boldly in such circumstances, but, better safe than sorry they tried to select the most unobtrusive and therefore boring candidate they had.

IMO, safe would have been a moderate liberal, NOT a puppet that's falling apart. There was a few that would have swept the middle and pulled hard at the moderate (R)'s that are now for sure going to vote for Trump.

The progressive lefties would have groaned but they'll vote for the liberal D over Trump all day. Gabbard and Ojeda on their own or together would have totally destroyed Trump. But....that would have upset the communist on Twitter, so we got Biden.

A bold and more honest play at this point would have been to run the populist socialist ticket with Sandaz and Warren. But I think Trump would beat them, most Americans outside of the left coast/NE coast uberplex metro areas just aren't that keen on eliminating private property and the voluntary exchange of goods and services.

The vitriol is by no means the same in both directions. Despising Obama's policies was forbidden. We had to listen to 8 years of being called racist every single time we disagreed with any policy position so fuck off you with your false equivalency.

My favorite thing about Trump being president is it spared me eight years of, "you just can't handle a "strong" woman (who rode her husband's coattails) in charge!"

People on the right can easily tell you and explain why leftust ideology is stupid. We can be quite specific on why those policies won't be effective. People on the left conversely can't articulate what specifically is wrong with the policies that we propose and instead just insist that we're stupid because of an idiotic, easily refuted ancient, flawed poll of Fox News viewers which somehow is supposed to prove something. We're tired of being called stupid we're tired of being called racist. There is no return to polite discourse and we on the right do not give a flying fuck.

I hear what your saying. It hasn't been my experience and that doesn't negate what you've experienced. It's not ok to dismiss anyone by calling them stupid. I'd like to see all this change toward something more productive because I know we all have way more in common than not, as we always have had in the past.

 

[Pookie]

I don't expect you to understand this but trump wants us to hate him because that feeds people like you. He never stopped campaigning and has been attacking anyone who doesn't support him because that's why you love his dumb ass. He has never even pretended to be the president of all US citizens. The virus crisis was a perfect opportunity for him to unite the country to fight a common enemy but he can't do that. He's incapable and incompetent. He's a sick fuck in way over his head

This.

 

[RobDownSouth]

A better HC alternative? LOL Again, fundamental disagreements are not going to allow a 1 size fits all federal HC system. The best you're going to get is blue states doing their own thing, letting red states do theirs.

Yes, lecture us on the Way Things Ought To Be while you enjoy your Federal-government-provided health benefits, for which you don't pay one fucking dime out of pocket.

That's hypocrisy, "do as I say, not as I do".

Not unlike cashing your socialist government stimulus check, while decrying "socialism".

You've had government-provided health-care most of your life, haven't you?
Military brat, government employee, now government "medical" disability. Have you ever had to pay for your own medical insurance?

 

[hogjack]

Does anyone have a list of who ex-President J. Edgar Obama is currently spying on? He spied on journalists, media members, US allies, US enemies, and political opponents. If he wasn't spying on them he was hunting them down with the IRS.

Anyone not feeling a bit paranoid needs to get a reality check. All I'm asking for is a list so I can open the fucking window shades.

 

[SpeareChucker]

He even put de jour on a list...

I think all federal employees are entitled to the pay/benefits they were contracted for so long as they fulfill their agreements.

So not only is that not hypocrisy, it's totally unrelated.

You need to look up socialism in a dictionary sometime, you still haven't figured out what that word means.

You've had government-provided health-care most of your life, haven't you?
Military brat, government employee, now government "medical" disability. Have you ever had to pay for your own medical insurance?

Yes, it's called work Rob....notice you used the term employee?? Words mean things.

That's the difference between earned benefits/pay and welfare no matter how many times you try and pretend they are the same.

Also totally unrelated to anything I said.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why does the suggestion of states doing their own HC systems being a much more attainable possibility than a 1 size fits all federal program the states clearly can't agree on trigger the radical lefties so much????

Must be too liberal and American for them. Too much toxicshitsludge!!

Or maybe it's because it highlights just how full of shit (D)'s are?? Perfectly capable and entirely (D) run strongholds like CA and NY, don't have any HC.

Why is that??? We know why

I think Obummer is punched-out for now. He's getting caught up in all the heat coming down on Clapper/Comey/Brennan, et al. He has his millions and his Martha's Vineyard mansion. I suspect he's just gonna keep his head down and try to slink off into his ignoble history without having to pay a price for his perfidious treason. His last little gasp about "rule of law", vis-a-vis FBI corruption, got very little traction. We hope he is DONE!

Well, so far President Trump - as bombastic, arrogant, and loud as he is - has not spied on political opponents, US allies, journalists, and media members. The hubris needed to use the courts and federal institutions for personal power is mind-boggling. All the current US President has done is endlessly "tweet" much to the chagrin and frustration of supporters.

Trump has not - to our knowledge - used institutions that Americans mainly admire (FBI, CIA) or reluctantly need (IRS) to take down his opposition. That takes hubris.
