These are your reactions when a right wing nut job attempts to assasinate a former democrat President, VP and presidential candidate (20 bombs in all) and you incredulously wonder why you are ridiculed and not taken seriously? You arent deplorable, you are comically pathetic caricatures from a political cartoon, lol.19 points

If only there was a way to maybe cross reference the fan fiction you just made up with the actual position of the Republican Party. Too bad there isn't a readily available party platform that has the Republican Party's position on all these issues. Oh yeah, there is a super clear platform. Let's use the Texas one since that is where we live! Abortion-you know the position. Pro life people are concerned about the rights of the fetus, another individual. But don’t worry, abortion is going nowhere. Going nowhere eh? Not if the Republicans have anything to say about it! "We urge the federal congressional delegation from Texas to take immediate action, under the authority extended to them in Article III of the Constitution of the United States, to put forth legislation remanding all authority over abortion to the individual states and removing all standing on the issue of abortion from the federal judiciary." Gay marriage- Republicans have been slower to come around to this, but it’s happening as I posted earlier. I don't actually know what you are attempting to say here, it is indeed "happening" but no thanks to the Republicans: "We affirm God’s biblical design for marriage and sexual behavior between one biological man and one biological woman, which has proven to be the foundation for all great nations in Western civilization. We oppose homosexual marriage, regardless of state of origin." Immigration- I think just about everyone outside of strict libertarians would say there should be some government involvement in maintaining our borders. A cute straw man, but Republicans don't call for "some" government involvement, they want that dang wall! "We expect both the Texas Legislature and the United States Congress to make a priority of allocating funds to effectively secure the border through whatever means necessary, including but not limited to barriers, a border wall, or fence everywhere along the border where it is feasible and useful, as well as personnel and technology over land, sea, and air." Marijuana legalization- Again, going to happen. Possibly under Trump. I don’t hear many Rs calling for stronger penalties or more intervention on this. Government will recede over time here. You are correct! Look at you, actually knowing a position of the party you so fervently support. I'm so proud of you right now. Gay rights- how are Rs using the state to discriminate against gays? The cake baker case? We'd be here all day if I posted every part of the platform that discriminates against gays. But yeah, you nailed it, the cake baker case. Brilliant. Ok fine, just one: "We oppose any criminal or civil penalties against those who oppose homosexuality out of faith, conviction, or belief in traditional values." Trans rights- I honestly know nothing about trans rights other than DoD wanted to restrict them from military. I’m not as upset about that as y’all will want me to be. I don't know nothin' bout them queer trannys and I don't care! Yee Haw! But your party sums up its position quite succinctly: "We oppose all efforts to validate transgender identity." So please continue to write your fan fiction of what the Republican party believes. Don't let facts or reason or evidence get in the way of the made up party you are a member of in your head. And maybe, just maybe, stop posting so much god damn stupid shit on this board. https://www.texasgop.org/platform/16 points

I’ve heard this bullshit my entire life, hell I used to believe the myth that Republicans were all about “faith in the common man succeeding when unimpeded by the govt.” Left alone business and humanity will solve all problems. I voted R. Then I read some books and watched this country for the last 20 years. It’s a myth and weak cover to allow business to trample all over individual rights, wages, quality of life, the environment, and our long term goals as a nation in exchange for money and power today. Hell with a little bit of forward thinking and regulation in our earliest days of oil production in Texas would have vastly improved the economy of this state permanently. But nope, gotta cash in today. 6 -12 hour work days per week, acid rain, burning rivers, child labor, superfund sites, unregulated securities exchanges .... I could go on for days. Just about every improvement we’ve had to quality of life in this country was impeded by those claiming we should keep out of business and have limited government. The same forces that built are insanely large military and keep waging wars. Or waged a war on drugs incarcerating millions simply for using drugs. Or ruined lives because of individual political ideology, or sexual orientation.15 points

I dont understand. Why cant Trumpkins just admit he is wrong. That all of his stupid hate mongering is wrong. Bush didn't do it. Bush Sr. didnt either. Neither did Reagan. Heck, I dont think Nixon did it either. And so on for the history of the Republic. So why can't Trumplicans just say "this is wrong. he needs to stop. he is partially to blame and it is unacceptable, reckless, and irresponsible for a US President to do this." no whataboutisms. no russian chaos tactics. no both sides. no but anything. just accept that your guy is wrong, call him out on it, require and demand that he stop doing it, and we as a nation can all move forward. its really that simple. why cant y'all just do that for the sake of Country?15 points

Essay Problems: -- An entire region of the United States won't let black people eat in restaurants for about 100 years now. -- McDonald's wants to build a golden arches on the top of Half Dome. -- A hurricane has wiped out Houston -- Overproduction of crops has lead to soil depletion and windswept great plains. -- We need to demonstrate our superiority to the Soviets by getting to the moon first. -- Farmers cannot get electricity in their remote locations. -- The economy has ground to a halt because the money supply has dried up, leading to 20%+ inflation. Please write a non-state solution to the above problems. 100 words. 10 points each. It sounds manly to say "You guys depend on the government. I am a mountain man! I can do it myself!" It's stupid sloganeering. It builds on dumb fantasies people have for themselves. And it rarely has any actual examples of being implemented nationwide and working.10 points

If someone can refresh my memory... Link me to a statement made by a Democrat leader after the softball shooting that downplayed it’s severity. Like calling it “that shooting stuff”. Oh? That didn’t happen? Then shut the fuck up and quit drawing a false equivalency between Trump’s horrific hate speech and Democrat’s existence.8 points

Trump, the president, has openly called for violence against his political opponents and the media in general on many occasions, including recently. I really can't think many of any parallel examples coming from similarly high profile Democratic politicians, in terms of frequency or explicitness. I agree there is rancor and paranoia all around, but this is not a "both sides" situation here.8 points

The FBI asked him if he did it and he STRONGLY denies it. In addition there are no collaborating witnesses. Let the guy go already.8 points

Weekend weather looks to be perfect across the state, no Cowboys/Texans, and the Horns are on the road and don't play till the evening. Go to the below site, find your nearest pop up office and get active. Even if you only have 30 minutes to spare. It's obvious it's going to take a herculean effort in the final week to win this thing. https://win.betofortexas.com/7 points

I love when right wingers refer to others as snowflakes...the entire modern conservative platform is predicated on fear. From immigration, to guns, ISIS, voting rights, and doomsday prepping, these guys are afraid of their own shadows. That's about as snowflakey as it gets.7 points

Did you not just read that you are talking to a bunch of people who aren't far left? And wonder why you are getting your intelligence questioned? C'mon man. Trump supporters are the biggest fucking soy boys out. Drink Bud Light, wear t shirts and cargo shorts, shave with a Gillette razor, scared of Mexicans and Mooslims. It's not possible to be a bigger pussy. That guy who said "Leave Britney Alone" or whatever is more manly than these gaping vaginas.7 points

motherfucker I cited two different conspiracy theories you had multiple posts about. I don't buy "I was just joking, TROLLED!one!!!" because there's tons of people being 100% serious about it and you're making light of over a dozen assassination attempts. I'll even give you the benefit of the doubt that you don't mean any of the shit you post, but either way, you're still adding to the volume of serious sounding discussion that's pushing easily verifiably false theories. And on top of that, you're getting butthurt for getting called out. Take the loss, pussy.6 points

I hardly ever respond on this board, but I can’t let this go. This situation is too tragic, too much of an example of where the current political mindless rhetoric has taken us to pop off with a stupid nonsensical joke. Fuck you!6 points

This. Megyn aside imo you should be able to dress for whoreoween, including BlackFace KKK nazi isis stripper homo, however the hell you damn want. The whole point of the holiday, which is the context, is to wear a costume that you otherwise wouldnt. Something that is unreal, fake, dumb, scary, witty, funny, provocative and/or controversial, without malicious intent of course, is the point. Bunch of damn snowflakes.6 points
