That's what I'm saying. The r-tards don't give a fuck.

Trump could've had an abortion performed in the middle of times square and he wouldn't lose a soul.

All any candidate has to do is talk like him. The r-tards will accept any amount of anything just to hear those words

Yeah, but a lot of non-base folks voted for him. I don't think they will again.

That's not true, though.

All one would have to do is merely talk like Trump. Then they can literally do ANYTHING and the fucking r-tards will do whatever mental gymnastics needed to accept it.

Especially if they think he's a white supremacist who's against abortion.

as long as they are a Republican. Anything else and they'd be immoral.

I'm very cautious about this.  I didn't think they would vote for him the first time and they fucking did.  Anyone with half a brain could see he was a con artist from the beginning.  He didn't even really want to be president.  But they made it happen.  I won't put anything past them again.  To me, the midterms and the general for 2020 depend completely upon voter turnout.  I'm going into it assuming he will get the same amount of votes he got in 2016.  Him and the R's have to be outvoted.

He managed to gain a number of critical union household votes that contributed to winning the B1G region which solidified the electoral victory. He is currently going hard in the paint for a big pro-labor cause which might strengthen his union support.

People don’t like to admit when they are wrong and go to great lengths to avoid it. My brother was a MAGA hat wearing fucktard. He won’t talk politics at all now except “still better than Hillary. Add in willful ignorance, Fox News and Minor reduction on his taxes and he will vote R again. Even if doing so hurts his work Industry, even when it cuts Medicare for his in laws. It won’t matter he will find an insane way to justify it.
Same with my mom. She shit talked Obama for 8 years. Teleprompter! Tan suit! Hawaii! She still does. Talk radio and Facebook. She won’t change her vote.
The only hope is that a large number of these willful idiots become disillusioned enough to not vote, because they aren’t switching sides and they aren’t voting anything other than straight R

It’s different for different people but I honestly believe the root cause of the Hillary hatred goes back to her beginnings.  She just rubbed people the wrong way.  People would see Hillary talk and they would have that, “I don’t know what it is about her but I don’t like her.”  There was never anything she could do to win these people over.  Nothing.

Couple that with 25 years of Hillary being under the microscope of the right with character assassinations, fake and overblown scandals, her own mistakes that were blown way out of proportion, and people would literally vote for Satan himself over Hillary.

That's a good question. I've seen progressive folks on this forum and shaggy say how they detest her. I've never understood the animus towards her. She's a centrist corporatist pragmatist by any political standard. I'm more to the left of her, but I don't hate her for that.

I've heard people say she has no convictions. Ok, fair enough. But that's every politician. The only obvious explanation is misogyny. If not that, what about her explains the hate?

https://www.axios.com/john-kelly-trump-oval-office-meeting-threatened-quit-f29667d3-d99f-4e23-92f6-9c48c360722b.html

 

White House Chief of Staff John Kelly threatened to quit on March 28, according to sources familiar with the events.

What I'm hearing: Kelly blew up at Trump in an Oval Office meeting that day, and while walking back to his office muttered he was going to quit. Sources said it was not related to the David Shulkin firing that happened the same day.

A senior administration official said that calling it a threat was "probably too strong, it was more venting frustration." Kelly often says he doesn't have to be there and didn't seek the job originally.

Details:

  • Kelly packed up some personal belongings, though I'm told that wasn't necessarily because he was walking out. 
  • He was fired up enough that colleagues got allies to call in to calm him down. 
  • At one point DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen — perhaps the person in the administration he trusts most — came over to talk him off the ledge. 

Context: Kelly has verbally threatened to quit more than once over the past eight months.

She's a tepid, unlikeable, status quo politician. I don't really detest her but she's not a great candidate. That said, she still would have been far better than this nightmarish maelstrom of stupidity we're stuck in.

Did they? They say they all voted for Gary Johnson.  Gary would have won this thing if all the people who lied about voting for him actually voted for him.

If you favor the democrats, Hillary is the best thing that could have ever happened for you.  And in particular her losing to Trump. 

If she beats Trump, the GOP strengthens, gains house and senate seats, and maybe nominates somebody who is not a lunatic in 2020.  She has no major legislative accomplishments as the GOP has the obstruction playbook down pat. After 2020, we're looking at filibuster proof GOP senate, the house, and WH. The only real upside for the Democrats is you got to replace Scalia (but the GOP Senate would have probably impacted who was actually confirmed). 

As it stands today, Democrats will take over house, narrow the margin in the senate, and will win the WH in 2020 if they nominate anyone other than Hillary (and maybe still win running her again). There will be no GOP legislation after Jan 2019. The GOP is an exposed and hollowed out shell, and will have difficulty imo regaining a solid foothold in the burbs and in presidential races for some time.  The damage that Trump has done to the GOP cannot be understated.

2016 was a major pivot point in terms of the political trajectory of this county.  And with the right time perspective, the Democrat party will be the long term winners in that pivot. The only thing that they have lost is a SCOTUS seat, and some short term shit that will all get unwound beginning in 2021.

This is true. The Fox News set would have expanded rather than declined under Hillary.  However, it still isn't going anywhere, and will maintain a solid amount of "always nos" in the Senate and House.  Obama was about as agreeable and open to compromise as a politician can get, and the burbs had no problem electing people who refused to sit down at a negotiating table with him.  I think the next President will be somewhat of a left wing firebrand in comparison which will give both center-left and center-right politicians pause.  He/She will probably get some things done with a Dem Senate and House, but by 2022, that type of President would be just the right person to let the GOP get off the mat.

Trump did leave a playbook for a smart left wing populist.  Libertarianism can't rebuild a dying town, but socialism could.  In the old days, we had socialists with the right wing penchant for xenophobia, but its been a long time.  The ones we have now are "kum ba yah" and that's never going to sell in a white mining town.

Trump made sure to leave those runways untouched so flights could resume that same day.

Trump Tower contains many stories—58 stories according to city records, or 68 stories according to Donald Trump who had the residential elevator buttons skip 10 floors to make the building seem bigger.

As special counsel Robert Mueller continues to investigate possible Russian connections to the Trump campaign, here's a look at some of the most controversial residents of Trump Tower over the years.

63rd floor -- Vadim Trincher’s former condo

Trincher was a leader of a Russian-American crime ring that operated an international gambling operation from Trump Tower. The ring laundered over $100 million, according to the U.S. attorney's office and FBI.

Prosecutors said Trincher coordinated with his neighbor a dozen floors below.

51st floor -- Hillel “Helly” Nahmad owned multiple condos on this floor

Nahmad acquired nearly an entire floor of the building over the course of a decade for an estimated $21 million, according to listings on StreetEasy.

Trincher, Nahmad and dozens of others pleaded guilty to charges connected to the gambling operation, while their alleged ringleader, Alimzhan Tokhtakhounov, slipped away as a fugitive in Moscow where he attended Trump’s Miss Universe Competition just months after the FBI conducted a raid of Trincher's apartment in 2013.

49th floor –- former rental apartment of ex-FIFA official Chuck Blazer

Blazer rented an $18,000 per month apartment for himself and a second $6,000 per month apartment primarily for his cats. According to Blazer's former girlfriend Mary Lynn Blanks, Blazer also enjoyed attending Trump's Miss Universe competitions and let Trump film a commercial for Trump University in his apartment.

A decade later, Trump would settle lawsuits brought by students against the now-defunct Trump University for $25 million. He never admitted to wrongdoing.

Blazer went on to befriend Russian President Vladimir Putin and voted for Russia to host the 2018 World Cup before admitting in court to taking bribes and pleading guilty to tax evasion, money laundering, racketeering and wire fraud.

43rd floor –- condo of Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort

Manafort purchased his $3.6 million Trump Tower condo in 2006.

But federal investigators now allege that Manafort made millions working as an unregistered foreign agent for pro-Russian political leaders and charged him with conspiracy and money laundering last October. He has pleaded not guilty and has filed a lawsuit challenging the broad authority of Mueller.

26th and 25th floors -- Trump campaign and presidential transition offices

It was here that Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushnerand Manafort agreed to take a meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya in June 2016 after being promised potentially damaging information on Hillary Clinton, according to email records.

After the election, Michael Flynn and Kushner arranged a separate, private meeting with former Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak at Trump Tower that they said was to establish a “fresh start” in U.S.-Russian relations, according to a statement made by Kushner in July 2017.

Last December, Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his communications with Kislyak and is now cooperating with Mueller’s investigation while facing up to five years in prison. Kushner denies any wrongdoing.

When it comes to alleged Russian connections, Trump also denies any collusion.

“There is absolutely no collusion. I didn’t make a phone call to Russia. I have nothing to do with Russia,” Trump said last December.

Putin is once again just proving to the rest of the world, including China and Western Europe, that the guy who we currently call the president of the United States is his cuck. And once again he’s right. It’s ridiculous but as they like to say, elections have consequences. Putin’s gamble continues to pay off.

Russia doesn’t want us there.

ISIS doesn’t want us there.

Assad doesn’t want us there.

So who wants us there? George Soros and the globalists again? 

And the Putin regime is evil.  They are pure fascism with all the cruelty and oppression mixed in.
