Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

They're your kinda peeps ... you know, the kind who have only the best intentions.

And I never said they suggested terrible things about the people in Brussels. They suggested WONDERFUL things about the people in Brussels, wonderful things that couldn't possibly be true.

 

Not at all.

These things bounce around.

You have no idea where they originated.

And, if you're not careful, you can re-tweet an "deplorable" account, when looking at hashtags. If you just hit re-tweet, without checking out the account, you'd have no way of knowing what other content an account might contain.

 

Do it once, you might have a point. Do it multiple times, then not so much.

Kudos on admitting Trump and his campaign aren't careful. (Cue the "WHAT ABOUT HILLARY!?!" response.)

But, hey, I run social for our company. I guess I'm lucky my staff hasn't RTed some racist memes or something from a White Genocide account. Or maybe half of our 1m-plus followers aren't Deplorables like Trump's.

 

They haven't been careful. No one denies that.

Until today, I'd never heard of Pepe the Frog, and had no idea he was a white nationalist symbol. When I saw the criticism, I thought it was based on the uniform in the picture.

And, I think the vast majority folks have no idea about this, and can understand how/why Trump Jr. wouldn't know either.

 

It is pretty crazy that they took her to Chelsea's apartment and not the ER.

But, I guess that's what happens when "campaign operatives" make medical decisions.

Hillary Clinton was headed to an emergency room following her sudden collapse during the Sept. 11 memorial ceremony — but ditched her NYPD escort and detoured to daughter Chelsea Clinton’s apartment to keep details of her medical treatment under wraps, The Post has learned.

Secret Service protocol called for the Democratic presidential nominee be taken to a state-designated Level I Trauma Center in the wake of her Sunday morning health crisis at Ground Zero, sources said.

But a campaign operative decided to change course to avoid treatment by doctors, nurses or other medical workers who could leak details to reporters, a source said.

Clinton’s van was supposed to be escorted by an NYPD protective detail, but the Secret Service whisked her away from Ground Zero before cops could accompany her, another source said.

Clinton had told police officials that she didn’t want the escort at all, but the NYPD overruled that request, the source added.

 

Hillary seems to make a lot of bad decisions. Seriously. Almost George Costanza-like.

 

Holding a POTUS campaign to the same standard as a singer. Nah, the bar isn't low for Trump.

How many RTs of racists are needed to make you quit excusing them?

 

She needs to follow Costanza, and choose to do the opposite of her natural instinct.

 

Trump-Pence 16: We can't help it if our views keep aligning with those of white nationalists for some mysterious, unknowable reason!

 

Ok. Is there a good example of a false promise made by these well-intended but ultimately delusional folks who foist their beliefs on the poor (and proudly?), less-informed populace. Or do you mean just instilling some general, fuzzy, warm sense of optimism that something can be done to help them?

 

I say this in all seriousness: the fact that white nationalists support Trump's immigration position is not an indication that there is anything wrong with the position.

I thought we learned this from the Reverend Wright episode.
