FEDIT POLITICS Thread

1) He is NOT a billionaire. He defrauds everyone and anyone near him. YOU merely adore billionaires, even fraudulently claimed billionaire status and thus offer that as justification. Wrong. Do better.
2) We can agree here. In fact his professors cite him as the stupidist student in the class. He lies with EVERY breath, EVERY time his lips move. OK only 84%. Oddly certain MAGAt's think lying as the POTUS is fine. What can one say about MAGAt's?
3) Yeah it's coming. Someday. Once Trump gets to lie on Twitter for another month or two and then redact everything even loosely incriminating.

Find any of that on NBC. It may be there but I don't watch it so I have no idea.

 

When you attempt to defend a "Right" so far askew of America then anything sounds "Left" doesn't it?

Now re-read the posts where I castigate the Left and fail to grasp anything I say on the re-read also

 

pphhhh... as if

 

^ you forgot the me al franken debacle
so glad that pos fell on his sword

 

My point? We do not live in the United Corporation of America. Despite what the GOP preaches and the bought and paid for DC clan thinks.
My point is that caving to corporate interests at the expense of humanity is wrong. Why does any human think otherwise?
My point is that our having a strong economy does not require abridging individual rights. Just because you can. Nor does it require Trumps hand on the helm. Just like it didn't require Clinton's.
My point is that Trump is evil and morally bankrupt. Just like he's financially bankrupt. Just like his MAGAt followers.
My point is that making Fortune 100 companies richer does NOT help Americans. Nor small businesses.
My point is that 'too big to fail' was a lie. But that was a separate rant because they all lie today.
My point is appointing a corrupt Oil exec to head the EPA was wrong. 100% wrong.
Just like replacing him, once his corrupt ass was busted, with a corrupt Coal exec is also as wrong as it gets. Who argues that? Are you?
My point is that appointing DeVos to disable the US education system is wrong. Having only those who can pay the most get educated is wrong.
My point is that we all deserve an education.
My point is that anyone arguing these obvious truths is wrong. Are you?
My point is that ethics got thrown off the bus in favor of the corporate lobbyist interests. Show your cash and we'll re-write the laws in your favor is wrong.
My point is that our children deserve better than corruption from our elected officials.
My point is that using bureaucratic backroom shenanigans to withholding a SCOTUS seat is wrong. And teaches the other side to do the same. Which, when it happens, will also be wrong.
My point is that Trump encourages right wing racists to act out. Repeatedly. So what if bigots and racists like him?
My point is that DSP resembles a right wing echo chamber and I personally call bullshit when I read it.
My point is that Obama was NOT a bad president if he got millions of Americans health coverage.
My point is that intentionally undoing healthcare for 10's of millions is wrong. And heartless.
My point is lost on those who think bowing in respect is weakness. Or showing ANY respect to others is wrong.


My point is that a loudmouth blowhard who bankrupts all his partners, 4 times, and lies 84% of the time is BAD. Never showing anyone respect is wrong.
My point is that anyone who DOES like this racist liar is wrong.

Now I don't like all the Democrats behaving just like GOP Lite, however they become the better sole option when the GOP proves daily that they are against the interests of Americans and ONLY act in favor of large corporations. They are wrong, as are all who support them.

Capisce?

 

Yep. We agree here completely. It's on the crooked DNC leadership, of old white males, who permitted HRC to purchase her nomination. Plain and simple.

Maybe old Bernie could beat Trump but foul and vile HRC had no chance.

 

shuddering at the accuracy of that insight

 

This doesn't discredit anything you guys are saying about Bernie being robbed. He was.
But I don't feel sorry him or his delusional millennial supporters who are addicted to Adderall and looking for free shit and a father figure.
Bernie was horrible at everything he ever attempted in the private sector.
The only thing he was ever good at was ranting about the system and spewing his socialist fantasies.
Then he becomes a bureaucrat and is now a multi-millionaire with 3 homes who ironically demonizes the "haves".
He's right up there with Al Gore as my most despised politician.

And if the commie shit and hypocrisy weren't enough, some of the stuff he says is right out of the Trump derangement syndrome handbook...
Accusing the president of every 'ism' under the sun. That's an automatic disqualification for me.
Any democrat who wins needs to be above the race, sex, gender, whatever-else oppression card.

 

that was better than expected
and i was expecting a lot
thanks for not taking it in a fetid direction

 

huh?,

Thank you for your reply. Thank you for keeping the talking points as clear as possible. Thank you for having read my comments for I fear they're too much for some here to digest. Having read my posts provoked you to ask 'what's my point' this time since I whiz in the wheaties of both corrupt parties, which I've tried to outline. I mean no offense to you, nor to anyone seeking common ground.
Perhaps you overlooked the portion of my replies where I've been a business owning republican for 30+ years, until their more recent turn to the dark side.

By this I mean their openly giving lip service to Organized Religion zealots while displaying behaviors quite as opposite as possible to the moral ethics espoused by most mainstream O.R.'s. Trump is no more moral than any other lying criminal, although his daddy's $$$ has kept him out of jail. So far. The GOP fall into the depths of Mordor include eschewing the rights of individuals in favor solely for corporate profits, humanity be damned. Environment be damned, children be damned. I still get invited to $1000 plate or $10,000 plate GOP dinners. Once on a list forever on a list but they will never see another penny if they do not listen. They confirm zero interest in listening to anything but $$$.

Regarding the GOP-Lite Democrats, they too have sold out and it disgusts me. No one cares for anything but $$$ but the Dems are less competent at it. Let me share that HIllary was the worst among them too. Trump shook things up, for the worse, but Hillary would have been 'more of the same' which America was clearly fed up with. The Dems too never listen and fail to grasp that they cannot win the GOP corruption game.. because they are amateurs with 'some' shred of morals hidden away in their coattails. The GOP have long since shed any remnants of morals.

huh?, I've grown aged, I tolerate lies, deception and flawed morals more poorly by the hour. I care more about the shitshow "WE" are leaving our kids and grandkids who will sooner or later be forced to mop up this fetid mess. When our POTUS is documented as lying 84% of time, that's not OK with me. Why is it OK with others unless they too embrace lying as a normal course of living? So I call them out when parroting BS. Claiming Clinton as 'causing the ruin of the Tutsi's or Obama not solving the Middle East quagmire of a millennia of hatred is wildly off point and far from what I've explained.

Indeed I voted for Obama, twice. He was far smarter than either opposing candidate, esteemed war hero McCain or corrupt hedge fund looter Romney. I thought after the patent idiocy of Dubya that we needed a smarter POTUS. Of course it turned out that he wasn't smart enough to see a better path to solving Dubya's corrupt Wall St / US Treasury global ripoff. Too bad, he tried. Those closet racists who still bicker about his bowing to show respect all the while extolling the (lack of) any virtues of Trump who shows no one respect baffles me. Disrespectful blowhards have no place in the Oval office. Who thinks they do? Racists? Bigots? Make America Great Again is what will need to happen once he's removed from this office. No other president in my lifetime, including crooked Nixon, has fomented racial hatred and bigotry at the scale of Trump. I prefer Kennedy's platforms, which both parties have long forgotten. Why is everyone so quick to call the Affordable Care Act a failure and in the same breath ignorant that it was the GOP / Big Insurance that demanded the removal of the Single Payer option. OK kill the best working part of the Act and then blame the other guys when it only works fair. Still 20M+ people got healthcare where they could not under previous GOP administrations. What gives? How is that bad? GOP hypocrisy talking out both sides of their mouths yet again.

My right leaning stances still includes full support of a border barrier for who doesn't close their front door at night? How am I wrong asking us to adhere to the pledge on the Statue of Liberty? Today we've given ALL control to mega corporations, giving Money the same rights as a citizen. That's wrong. You're not arguing that point or did you miss it? Today nearly everyone in DC is corrupt due to groveling for lobbyist $$$. Meanwhile anyone who does show integrity is assailed and called bully names. When did bullying become acceptable to a moral man? Do they teach that in 'your' church? My point is ethics and morals are not only lost but being legislated away. "Conservatives" are so far from conservative it's shameful. Today's "Conservatives" are hateful, backwards oppressors of all they can find to oppress. Why should old white men tell all women that they have less rights? Says who? Just because some collection of mumbled fables tells them to? So Sharia law is to follow? What happened to the separation of church and state? And why do modern GOP lovers think that's OK? Do none look in a mirror?

Sharing the Alex Cole tweet was an attempt to share mirth. True, we agree that Point #3 has no support... yet. But that wasn't the point, merely a single anecdote among a landslide of compelling evidence. I do not know Alex Cole nor his background, I merely related to his tweet and thus shared it. Agreed that I knew / should have known that it would provoke debate / outrage within the DSP echo chamber. OK, I'm Irish and have been known to poke sticks in eyes before when it appeared warranted.

 

you sound like pencil neck

 

Calls the ACA a fiscal disaster but doesn’t acknowledge the GOP tax sham that ballooned our deficit and widened the wealth gap. Says the ACA failed to save a single life when it provided millions of citizens with healthcare that they normally would not have had. Credits Trump with the strong economy when it is really Obama’s economy.

Everything you said Cap was correct. But it is obvious huh? and TB will disregard everything as long as a party’s views aligns with their religious views. They don’t care that the party is morally bankrupt. They don’t care about the environment, education, social issues, the economy etc. They vote for the party that is against abortion and gay marriage and the party that reinforces white supremacy. Those 3 things supersede anything else. It’s as simple as that.
