President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

When was that? When you released your tax returns?

 

Ho, ho, ho. This guy is as crooked as the man who nominated him.

 

As if America needed another reason to hate the Walgreens.

 

Which you can use to watch Team Trump choke every year.

 

What's more important: The Democrats still have no cohesive strategy for defeating the part of Very Fine People.

 

No one in politics ever has a coherent strategy for winning one election, let alone an election that is over 500 different elections. You try everything you can and hope for the best. Put your sentence another way. Why don't the Democrats have a cohesive strategy for reducing the amount of racism and sexism in white America? Nobody has that, because of the enormity of the task,

 

Trump certainly has a strategy for increasing it.

 

Appealing to hate and fear is easy. Appealing to human decency is hard, because it requires more energy from the people you're appealing to. Takes no effort to be a selfish shit. That's why even the best people do it from time to time, and most normal people (me too) do it more than they'd like to admit.

 

"What voter repression?"

 

It doesn't take any more effort to vote against the people appealing to hate and fear.

 

Peer pressure seems like it should be easy to resist, but often isn’t.


And that’s really where we are at isn’t it. Middle and high school. Bullies, peer pressure, gang rape, binge drinking,
