Political Discussion
And, once again, you missed the point - deliberately. I was not a fan of Jimmy Carter, but he at least had integrity. You seem to prefer a malignant narcissistic wannabe dictator who is betraying our country to the highest bidder. And you wonder why we think you’re stupid. |
Look, it’s not about insults. It’s important to understand how dumb much of the public is for messaging. Trump is a con man for sure, and he understands what makes the ignorant tick. If there is any hope for the democrats to peel off another 2-3 points in the polls, they need to start messaging to the lowest common denominator. They need to keep it simple. |
Yes, disparaging voters who you need to "peel off another 2-3 points", is a sure fire formula for success! |
Buddy, I don’t “need” anyone. I’m one of the few people the tax cuts actually help. I just don’t care it’s see our democracy get flushed down the toilet. Why don’t you give patriotism a try... ya dummy! |
You make the point. A constitutional guardrail - impeachement - is not "overturning their votes" but sure, go on banging that drum. |
At one time, voters in another country preferred Hitler. Are you fine with that? |
Everytime trump lies he is showing contempt for every citizen of this country including those who voted for him. |
Just stop the Hitler references and implied analogies. It makes you look weak. |
Are you even kidding me? The man who’s still out there building g**da** houses for the poor at 100 years of age is “incompetent,” but his successor who had dementia for most of his tenure, and allowed the Iran Contra ish wasn’t? Yeah right! You really are the worst among us, holding up liars and cheats as winners and denigrating a man who devoted his entire humble life to service. Some kind of morality you’ve got there. If JC we’re alive today, you’d be out in the streets spitting on him as he walked to his own crucifixion. |
| Fox News and Facebook with their propaganda, has sure done a number on this country. |

If you look at what happened in the 2018 election and what just happened in Virginia and Kentucky (of all places), the trend is not going in Trump's favor. This is not going to suddenly turn around unless the Rs have something really damning. Trump was trying hard with the Bidens and Ukraine (total desperation to ask them to investigate), but it is backfiring bigly. I haven't heard any big bombshell from that side. Meanwhile, bombshells drop every day with Trump and the lies just keep piling up. |
NP: If you don't like Hitler, pick another despot. The phenomenon we're watching is a slide into authoritarianism. Trump has personalized politics so that what is paramount is him rather than the rule of law. Loyalty must be to Team Trump, not to the US. It's actually rather frightening to see how vulnerable our country is to bad faith actors who are unwilling to abide by established norms and laws (with the norms being as important as the laws). |

People need to drop FB. Period. |
Carter might have been incompetent but in a very different t way. Same w Ronnie. But both had decent people surrounding g them. Bush 2 - not so much - he had Darth Vader 1 & 2 advising him. |
