    Pretty much. Also, I do see where his supporters are coming from on this. You see, in their minds, anything bad said about Dotard has to be a nefarious lie concocted by liberals because that is how they would operate if the shoe were on the other foot.  They can’t fathom that’s not also how everyone else works. 

    The thing is, one needn't be a liberal to detest Trump. The thing is, people of all stripes of political thought (even some of his own) loathe and detest him. And it's not because of some cosmic hatred that they have; it's because he's a loathsome and detestable creature. But you're right; what they're exhibiting is what I like to call "the pot calling the silverware black."

    They're terrible. We should win convincingly.

    Right I mean Texas will very likely cover the spread but it won't really mean shit as far as how good they are, just how bad the Miners are.

    “But but but Obama put kids in cages! Checkmate motherfucker!” Nevermind Trump’s made it 20 times worse, and by cherry picking the one thing you think you can argue with you’re tacitly admitting to the other 10 horrible, indefensible things Trump has orchestrated. Listen here, Greg-Davis-2-yard-out-on-3rd-and-long-because-you-take-what-the-defense-gives-you, maybe sit this one out. I don’t think you’re ready for debate team on this one. WhatAbout-ism is going to get dunked on 100% of the time. It’s a poor ineffective strategy. 

    Not only that but it completely backfires in its intent. The intent is to expose a hypocrisy of the Democratic Party when really all it does is expose the same of the administration.

    The Trump administration built its entire ethos on being the anti-Obama administration...but when it came to the one policy of Obama’s that they actually like, they’re like “well it’s an Obama policy and we can’t do anything about it.”

    Motherfucker, all you had to do was sign another one of those executive orders...just like you do with everything else Obama-related. But THIS is the one policy that they pretend their hands are tied?

    This is a motherfucker that has either tried or even succeeded in diverting funds away from where congress dictated they should have gone, has floated the idea of cancelling/postponing the election, has fucked with the post office, has argued in a court of law that he has “absolute immunity,” has argued that Article II gives him unlimited power, has stated multiple times at those retard rallies of his that he should be able to bypass the term limit provision of the 22nd amendment (12 more years!), and has also criticized Obama for damn near everything he did (even the shit Trump also did, like playing a lot of golf), but HERE is where his hands are tied and actually exacerbated the living shit out of it well beyond what Obama likely had in mind? Get the fuck out of here with that weak ass bullshit.

    seriously that’s some damn fine internet sleuthing. Partially surprised that someone hasn’t tracked down his current location.  Rey hard to completely live off the grid. Or fully live under someone else’s name.

    Actually that wasn’t me, just some shit I found on another board via google search. I actually didn’t even know about this whole thing until today. But yeah I am curious to know what happened after this exposure.

    Trump walking to Marine One in one those off the cuff interviews:

    Said the Post Office has been horribly operated.  Reporter asked him if people should feel worry about getting their meds through the mail.  Instantly said Post Office was operating great.

    Reporter then asked about mail in ballots.  He said it was horrible but absentees were very secure.

    Lulz.

    Goddamn are you serious? That sounds extreme even for his stupid ass.

    All of us and most people.  I'd also like to add police accountability.  

    When I asked you that, I was referring to the D candidates.

    Only 2 of them (Warren and Sanders) pushed M4A. The rest (i.e. the liberals) either argued Obamacare was fine the way it is or that a public option needed to be included. The latter position was really just a cheap attempt to expand the tent because in reality, the private insurance and medical industry would never allow that to work (any more than FedEX or UPS or DHL wants the USPS to stay in business). As far as education, I've yet to see anything meaningful from that crowd either.

    Now, perhaps your definition of "liberal" differs from mine. Mine is taken from the classical definition, which is a political centrist as seen on the compass:

    These are the same people to which Phil Ochs referred in "Love me, I'm a Liberal."

    These are the same people who cheered candidate Biden when he said this:

    In his comments about the younger generations, I can already see where it's going...and then he confirms it with this "we changed the world" nonsense. It's typical delusions of grandeur from that generation, and it's why I invoked the car analogy. You may not have liked it, but it's accurate nonetheless. If the Joe Bidens of the world want to pretend that shit's all sunshine and daisies for the millennial-and-younger generations and if he wants to pretend his generation "changed the world," he's living in a recurring mindset that presents itself throughout history. It's called the "end of history" mindset. It basically reads "we're as advanced as we're ever going to be, everything is as close to perfect as it's going to get, we don't need to change anything." It's utter horseshit, and I shouldn't have to explain why as I'm sure anyone with a brainstem who posts here already knows.

    Don't get me wrong; I unhesitatingly will cast my vote for him this November...but I'm not going to be spiking any footballs or running any victory laps if and when he wins. I'll simply be saying that we bought ourselves some time and that the progressive trend that's happening in Congress needs to expand rapidly.

    While Republicans just run full bore towards the cliff thinking the rich can jettison from the soon to be exploding car.  Saving the car and it's riders isn't moderation for moderation's sake.  It's about not crashing the car.  And why is affordable education and healthcare radical or moderation for moderation's sake?  Blanket statements are useless.

    What liberals are in favor of those things?

    Sucks. I’m tired of people dying, I’m tired of being under siege by this virus. Nothing good is coming from this. Come on folks can we band together now, please? #wearamask

    Well goddamn, that's what so fucking frustrating about this. It's frustrating because we have the necessary info to help at least severely mitigate this pandemic, and yet we have a disturbingly large contingent of the population that's so mentally weak that they're unteachable. They're incapable of learning anything and it's precisely because they don't think they need to learn anything.

    This is not just me speaking ill of the dead. For one, I'm also speaking ill of the living. But also, did anyone else consider that Herman Cain's tomfoolery just might have led to him infecting someone else? Did anyone think of that? Did anyone else think about the people who've unwittingly been in proximity of Louie GomerPyle or Paul Waldron or Bill Montgomery or Rand Paul or any of those other stupid fucks? Does anyone give a shit about them?

    Well those guys certainly didn't. All they did was spend the last few months playing Make Believe and Pretend. They pretended that and made belief in the idea that all this was either a hoax or not nearly as bad as the libtards said that it was, some of them are fucking dead because of it, and others may soon (or have) die(d) in their wake. The GOP certainly does not care one iota about this either. How do we know this? Their support for this orange retard, who couldn't be bothered to give a shit about COVID 19 even if someone told him that Ivanka's blowjobs were a vaccine, has not wavered in the slightest. They would literally rather die on that hill than admit that MAYBE Joe Biden isn't the communist threat they imagine him to be and perhaps he's the better of the two options. They absolutely are complicit and they will never be able to argue otherwise.

    And just to cut the head of the proverbial snake that is the GOP playing the false equivalence card against me, as they so often do, I absolutely detest Biden. I see him as nothing but a dangerous compromiser, but Trump just tweeted this morning that the election needs to be postponed. This man is an outright fucking authoritarian and it's literally costing thousands of American lives (and potentially others because who the fuck knows how many foreigners we've infected along the way). This is what intelligent people mean when they use the term "shit show."

    Why didn't they just pump him full of HCQ?  There's a cure for this thing!

    The spin will be fantastic when we find out he was on a full HCQ regimen and yet he still passed away.

    Even better if he was on a full regimen and that's what contributed to his demise.

    Developmentally disabled as in learning disabilities? The DA is quoted in that article as saying she struggled with learning disabilities. Doesn't mean she was retarded or unfit for child care.

    Personally I'd say that the DA just overcharged unnecessarily. They already had enough to pin him down for many years.

    Dude- I used to hear it. Or Cheney was an evil genius and Bush was a puppet. But the point was still cognitive dissonance when speaking about the administration being cunningly, strategically evil and bumbling and incompetent, simultaneously. 

    Heard it from whom? 9/11 Truth nuts? That’s hardly a valid representation of...well, anything. 

    Oh and which claim was it? Because Bush being an evil genius or a puppet are two very different claims. One is not a lighter version than the other. One is the opposite of the other. 

    Also, hardly anyone suggested idiocy of the entire administration. The idiocy claims were limited to Bush and maybe a handful of much lower level nitwits (Brownie, Gonzalez, Goodling and the rest of those idiots that went to Regent University), but no one serious said that about Cheney, Rummy, Powell, Bolton, et al. Did they have absolutely insane political views? Yes, but hardly an indictment of their education and/or overall intelligence.

    These guys aren’t helping.  Fox News headline.

     

    I should have elaborated.

    So earlier this week I encouraged the sane and moral people here to utter the words "DONALD TRUMP IS A DOMESTIC TERRORIST."

    I was half right, and I say "half" because there's another important part to that which I omitted unintentionally:

    FOX NEWS/OAN SUPPORTS DOMESTIC TERRORISM

    Yep.  It didn't really seem like it, but in retrospect, Obama and events had us on a pretty even keel economically and most other ways.  Many of our problems were perceived, theoretical, or aspirational.

    And that persisted through most of the Trump administration, despite his best efforts.  Until now.

    I mean there were still a lot of problems economically with a great number of Americans under Obama, but Trump was the guy who invented additional problems in his own tiny mind and offered insane solutions that exacerbated the symptoms of the actual problems. It's like a heart surgeon who took a bunch of mushrooms and ripped a guy's balls out in a triple bypass operation, and when asked why he did it, he says "his balls were singing Layla, and I hate that shit because the very sound of it summons aliens to my fortress in Guatemala!"

    Liberals:  "You crazy radicals need to understand change happens incrementally. You can't just change the system all at once."

    Lefties: "OK, how about just 10% of the already incredibly hyper-inflated military budget?"

    Liberals: "No."

     

    Liberals are fucking insane. They're the guy who's riding shotgun in a corvette that's traveling top speed towards a cliff that goes thousands of feet down, and when the driver realizes he has to slam on the brakes and turn the fucking car sharply to avoid an inevitable catastrophe, he says to the driver "don't stop that hard and don't turn that much!!! MODERATION FOR MODERATION'S SAKE!!!"
