So, we blame Hillary Clinton for the idiots that wanted to believe she sold our urananium, killed a guy, ransacked her own foundation, was personally responsible for the deaths in Benghazi, and had a debilitating brain disease? Blame her for the idiots that embraced the current criminal in the White House?
Let's not forget in all of this focus on Trump that the profound problem here is the electorate. That problem remains after Trump is gone. They've hitched their cars to the hate engine. They'll be provided with many false reasons to hate whoever the GOP wants them to hate. Hillary was just target of opportunity. 
See GOP outlets propaganda about AOC and her freshmen colleagues. See GOP campaign to denounce John Kerry's war record in favor of a guy who couldn't even show up for the National Guard. Or just turn on FOX and Limbaugh.
Trump is a symptom. The shining bubo on a hill. The plague is the poison happily consumed by the electorate.

Perfection.

I fucking love this President. My 2 faves during my lifetime are Trump and Nixon. They share a lot of similarities and were besieged by the same groups of assholes. No I’m not trolling. Y’all, the lef

This.....is magnificent. The "younger generation" is going to have to work double-time to fund YOUR Social Security, which YOUR generation of elected officials raided the fuck out of.  And which,

Never mind taking states for granite, Morty.  She was a shitty candidate because she didn't energize the base at all because she's been a centrist political weathervane her whole life as evidenced by her vote for the Iraq War, among many other things.  She also was gifted the Access Hollywood tape before a debate but couldn't fully press that advantage because her husband is also a creep.  We'll be fine as long as we don't nominate someone like Biden that's kinda creepy and also the kind of dumbshit that would vote for the Iraq War.  

Unless black voters turn away from him hard, I'm pretty sure Joe Biden is going to be the nominee.

Have you shunned the Republicans in your social circle or do you still associate with them?

At the risk of being super racisto, can someone explain the math to me as to why the African American vote controls the Dem nominee?  I believe African Americans make up 13% of America, and if you say Dems are 50% of America, by my math that comes to the African American vote making up 26% of the Dem vote, assuming 100% of African Americans vote Dem.  Why do 1/4 of Dem voters determine the whole enchilada?  I really am asking a serious question.  I may be the dumb shit here, so explain it to me like I'm a dumb shit.  It was also my understanding there would be no math.

Because we have state primaries and the percentage of African American voters varies state to state. This means they often make up the largest percentage of voters in Democratic primaries, particularly in the south.

Because we have state primaries and the percentage of African American voters varies state to state. This means they often make up the largest single percentage of voters in Democratic primaries, particularly in the south.

So the Dem nominee is largely determined by voters in states that the Dems will lose in the general?

@Chrispy remember when the republicans talked about the sanctity of the office?   Are you man enough to admit that was a lie now?

You forgot the underscore, so I didn’t receive any notification.
 

I think it’s probably best to look with a jaundiced eye at anything politicians tell you. Sanctity and politics certainly don’t belong in the same sentence.

I haven't really needed to shun anyone within my extended circle of friends and family. The only contact I have with GOPs is casual and fleeting. I raised issue with one man who was an investment advisor who'd stated he supported Trump because he'd somehow averted an economic disaster that Obama headed us toward. I made known that, even if true (I'm not aware of that issue, but I'm not a financial specialist), this policy does not balance the bad in Trump.

Nobody I regularly associate with supports Trump. Even GOPs I know and who may have voted for him, despise Trump now.

My guess is that the Trumpists in my world here in Austin move in dumbass circles or just keep quiet about it.

I couldn't have a supporter of Trump as a friend because they have made themselves dangerous to the remaining shreds of this republic.

This is the perfect encapsulation of Trumpist thinking.

For years, these same people told us character matters, decency matters, “family values” matter, the sanctity and dignity of the office matter....etc ad infinitum.

Now, they are perfectly fine with it, because “all politicians do it.” How much y’all wanna bet that the next time a dem is in the White House, the trumpists will re-discover their “values,” and will have hours of taking heads condemning a POTUS who said “damn,” because swearing is beneath the office?

Trumpists have no values or standards. They only ever cited them to give cover to the only thing they really feel: hate, anger, contempt, racism, and cruelty.

This is what they are. They are nothing other than that.

I think it's a lot of both.  She never thought Trump was a real threat, so she just didn't take him seriously.  I don't think she realized the depth and breadth of the basket of deplorables, which is what the GOP have been baking since Reagan/Gingrich.  Instead of providing their base with the education and programs to actually succeed and make this country better, they simply took away (and continue to take away) programs that would do those things.  They have switched out the American dream with insecurity and have replaced hope with hate.  All the while robbing from the poor in a lot of different ways. 

Government is not the problem as much as politicians.  Somehow the DNC needs to get that word out.   If it weren't for the New Deal and it's fellow programs where would the USA be now?   I think we are at a similar point in history, just a different set of evils.  Just seems the more wealth disparity we have, the closer to breaking we are as a country.

You strike me as someone that is awfully new to politics.

HEY! Better late than never. I return after errands and here is the calendar with the day half over. And what a calendar it is:

Today, Trump is (right now) departing the WH to attend the Army-Navy Football game in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. What a conundrum for attendees. Current military doesn't have much of a choice, so what happens to everyone else in attendance. The drama! The excitement! To which branch of the military will the Trump Curse be afflicted?!

After the game, the President will return to the WH for a diaper change and then its off to Trump International Hotel this evening for a fundraising committee reception for which WE are probably, no wait, assuredly paying.

 

Someone rewrite the music and play "Hell to the Chief" and see if he notices.

If it wasn’t for those bone spurs I’m sure trump would’ve been as good as Roger Staubach.

And all authoritarians are this way. They can freely vacillate between nihilistic cynicism and blind trust. They can parrot “everyone does it” when we call their leaders out on their bullshit, as if they trust no one, but then they’ll consistently trust the retarded talking points their party spews. They don’t even believe their party’s bullshit, they just like amplifying it.

They are little boys and girls inhabiting adult bodies. Too many people confuse them for being grown ups (not you, of course)

Literally no one protesting in front of the WH, but I suppose their new fence out front does a lot to deter dissent. That said, it says a lot about our country that no one is protesting while a president is actively being impeached.

Couldn’t do the same at the WH without capitol police running me off, but there was another opportunity down the street.

I don't get a lol out that at all. They should be immediately kicked out of West Point for flashing white power hand signs instead of infiltrating our armed forces with their sick ideology.
