Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

I'd like to read tony's explanation of Trump's education plan. I know part of it at some point was getting rid of Common Core, but I'm not sure if he stuck with that.

 

For the 1,000th time, I don't think I'm "smarter than most everyone here." I come here for the opposite reason - to b.s. with people smarter than me.

 

It concentrates on 10-year-old girls.

 

What "indefensible cause" am I defending? I think Trump's comment was ambiguous enough about consent that Politico should not state unequivocally that he confessed to sexual assault. The Washington Post, which broke the story, didn't write that he did.

 

No matter how much I know he has untreated mental illness, I keep trying to force Trump's actions into some sort of rational framing.

Blaming it all on a Mexican billionaire of Lebanese decent is yet another move directed at keeping the deplorables fired up for him at the expense of alienating everyone else and further cementing his loss. None of his strategies are coherent for someone who is actually still trying to win an election.

The only explanation I can come up with that allows for Trump to have some sort of actual plan is the one where he's trying to become the face of the alt-right so that he can set up a news network to crowd out Fox News.

Actually, maybe that explains some of his weird electoral strategy choices too. I wonder if Ohio and Pennsylvania have higher concentrations of Fox News watchers than Nevada or Colorado or Iowa or Virginia.

 

Oh my:

 

John Adams, defense attorney, would get a hero's welcome here.

 

Why do I get the feeling that every one of your inferred consent instances would involve Democrats and none would ever be Republicans?

 

Because you are a terrible human being who implied that sexual harrassment was worse than child rape?

 

Again: Bill Clinton was accused by Juanita Broaddrick of committing a violent, vaginal rape.

 

We can't even get left-wing heroes to agree on what "is" is, so good luck with that.

 

Here come the rape police, amirite?
