Our elected leaders are dictated by gerrymandering and voter suppression which were actions implemented by American politicians. 

You mean the elected leaders now aligned with the Kremlin?   Yeah, maybe we should RETRACE OUR FUCKING STEPS ON HOW WE GOT HERE

Just a hunch. Basing it on the fact that Trump has been successfully sued for blocking people on Twitter. Twitter is now a record of his official statements as president. Plus, Jack doesn't have the balls to block him. 

Fair enough, I suppose my thought on why they don't ban him is more cynical.  I think it's all about ad revenue.  Twitter is in the eyeballs business, and if nothing else, Trump brings in the views.

My grandmother has no problem with the coloreds. Now go help yourself at the candy and nut bowl, grab yourself a delicious nigger toe and sit and visit awhile. 


I remember when my friend's grandfather was so proud of his newfound racial tolerance after he quit using the "n word"  and started calling black folks "darkies."

Sorry, but I’m not impressed with Obama’s statement.  We need more Betos right now and less Obamas as far as the rhetoric from our leaders go.

I think we need both.  Obama can be the boring gravitas guy as a comparison to Trump. The candidates can bring the heat.

We need leadership.  We need Trump named and shamed by those leaders.  Anything short of that is not leadership. 

If this democracy wasn’t so brow beaten, our “leaders” would openly calling for Trump to resign right now.

Well Obama is constitutionally forbidden to be our leader again so I’m fine with him being the “hope & love” voice from the left while the actual candidates bring the anger and indignation.

Obama gets both locations correct
Shreds the "it won't work!" argument
Brings up white nationalist, racist ideologies, radicalized through the internet
Tolerance and diversity, shades Trump

What a class fucking act. And Hugo hates it.

The distinction is that Trump is President so he has a duty to not violate the 1st Amendment. Twitter is just a company, as other have pointed out. I agree though that he won’t get banned from twitter, but it won’t be litigation fears that cause them to back down.

Hey, hold on a second. I mean Hugo's been right about so many things over the past 2 years...

Obama flames Trump and that then becomes the story. Unlike Trump, Obama has the smarts to put out a statement like he did and reinforces just how far we've fallen in the decorum of the president.

Toledo?  Did he seriously say Toledo?  GFL.  I'm surprised he didn't drop a T&P for Bowling Green.  

Did you hear that Obama said 57 States? Way worse!

Class act indeed.  He played all the right notes to give everyone the warm and fuzzies.  He identified all the problems and what needs to be done.  He demonstrated what a good president looks like in normal times.  But these are not normal times.   

His trepidation about overreaching or coming off too divisive has always been his weakness.  Sorry if I see it again in this statement.  I’m not going to bash Obama because there’s no point but the lack of intensity and urgency irked me. 

His statement was better than no statement.

Thanks Obama

Not a lawyer, but why do you think they would lose?  They are a private company, so not beholden to the 1st, and surely he's broken their terms of service agreement numerous times.

Not arguing, just asking.

Civil rights violation.  Trump is mentally disabled.

“Trepidation about overreaching or coming off too divisive” are good qualities of reasonable people in general, and especially those who are wielding more power than anyone else in the free world.

I think Obama’s statement was very good.  And while it may be satisfying to see Beto voice people’s raw frustration, of the two I would rather have a President that responds the way Obama did.  Do we want to solve problems, or is it more important to land a sick burn against Dotard and dumb media people?

It’s not about landing sick burns, it’s about setting a tone.  It’s about making Trump and those that enable him uncomfortable to the point they might think twice before they tweet out racist shit. 

I want leaders that speak as if their brother was just murdered by the same hate Trump has been spewing for the last four years.  Americans are now being massacred by the same forces the Trumpublicans have been actively inspiring and giving aid and comfort.  The time for niceties is over.

I hope the D nominee can be that person, at least in part. The Ds are going to have to fight as hard as the Rs to make that happen.

By the time the election is in full swing this weekend will be forgotten, I’m afraid. Trump will be back to normal and Fox News will be in full force. I hope I’m wrong, Trump needs to get the hell out. Every complicit Republican needs to be voted out! We need fresh air and total change.

Trump to visit El Paso on Wednesday - this should go swimmingly.

He'll truck in a bunch of actors and 8chan to fill the crowd and block any protesters from entering. Outside will be a different story.

Trump is still stiffing El Paso for the $470k he owes for his maga rally in February.

This will be forgotten by next weekend. He'll say or do something outrageous to distract the media narrative and then get right back to his racist hate speech.

How many more radicalized white nationalist attacks are we gonna have before November 2020?  Or school shootings? 

5? 10? More? 

How many more asylum kids torn from their families are going to die in our custody?  

We are in uncharted territory.  Trump isn’t going to be able to distract from what’s coming.  It’s a miracle we haven’t had any high profile assassinations yet.   Trump has no idea how bad his Frankenstein’s monster gets.
