Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Where's Sanders on the "liberal in the college town local source coffee shop" scale right now?

1 is wearing a country gentleman hat despite living three feet from downtown
10 is getting in open shouting matches in the coffee shop over some protected wetlands outside of town.

 

Is that supposed to be better?

 

Trumpghazi!

 

No. It might even be worse. Let's face it, we've had plenty of bitter racists in office who were at least smart enough to govern somewhat effectively.

Trump doesn't really stand for anything and he lacks the skills to do the job.

 

He saw the green flag and thought he was courting the NASCAR vote.

 

Release the emails!!!

 

What do we really know about Trump? Do we know if Trump really loves his country?

A liberal who trolls conservative Facebook pages who calls himself "The Voice of Reason" posted this and he's right:

"First of all Judge Gonzalo Curiel isn’t a Mexican, he’s an American who was born in Indiana and I don’t remember your team ever bitching about Bobby Jindal (who was born in Louisiana) being Indian or Michelle Malkin (who was born in Pennsylvania) being Filipino so you can just take that line of attack and shove it. Also: Just because you say Judge Curiel is a racist doesn’t mean he’s a racist just like you saying he’s “an active member of La Raza” (he isn’t) and that La Raza is a racist group (it isn’t) doesn’t make it so. The fact that even a self-described "nonpartisan voice for Latinos" like La Raza Lawyers of San Diego is seen as partisan because it’s a Latino advocacy group screams volumes about how blatantly anti-Latino the GOP has become.


There’s a whole world of difference between the fairly anodyne La Raza Lawyers of San Diego Scholarship Fund, the organization whose board Judge Curiel once sat on, and the National Council of La Raza that advocates for immigration reform. I know they both use “La Raza” in their names but by definition the San Diego lawyer’s group is barred from engaging in political campaigns.

Was Judge Curiel acting as a Mexican when he prosecuted a Mexican drug cartel as an Assistant United States Attorney working as the Chief of the Narcotics Enforcement Division in the Southern District of California? No, he was a patriotic American doing his damn job then just like he’s a patriotic American doing his damn job now. And what do you call someone who automatically thinks anyone from a specific ethnic group can’t do their job because they’re part of that ethnic group? Paul Ryan (born in Wisconsin and therefore not actually Irish) said “Claiming a person can't do their job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist.”

When you have dyed-in-the-wool Republicans like Ryan calling Trump’s remarks "completely unacceptable" and others like Mitch McConnell who said "I couldn't disagree more" with Trump’s argument that Judge Curiel should recuse himself over this non-existent conflict of interest or others like Bob Corker who said he didn’t condone Trump’s comments about Judge Curiel and Newt Gingrich who said that Trump pursuing this particular line of stupid is “inexcusable” and “one of the worst mistakes Trump has made" you have to consider it’s not us, it’s you."

Reagan’s Son: The Whole Family Is Insulted By Those Comparing Trump To My Father

I look forward to my man YF's argument that he has a better feel for how Reagan would have felt about Trump than his kids.
