    Venting and shitposting, no question.

    The single most compelling reason for Trump to not get a single vote in 2020 is what he’s done to discourse. Or what he’s done to it in conjunction with social media.

    If the bathroom needs to be remodeled, be sure to get one of those toilets you need only flush a time or two.

    No, really, what do the people who disapprove of this thread want it to be?
    I've sought an answer to that question for seven fucking years.
    I've been a member on a few forums where empty tweetposts are vaporized, no questions asked. I agree with you it would help the conversation around here.
    But beyond that you seem to be the type of person who could never understand suffering until it visits your doorstep.
    People are dying because Donald Trump had to be president, to fill whatever empty hole he thought that might fill in his sorry life.

    The thing is, either he's lying about who he votes for or he posts a lot of bullshit he doesn't even believe. It may be the latter because he is definitely a troll, but I don't believe for a second anyone who honestly believed everything he has posted isn't a supporter of President Trump.

    Then again, maybe I'm wasting my time because you're too busy hiding under the desk to read this.

    If anyone has any balls, they will use these exact words with attribution during any kind of senate impeachment testimony.

    There’s probably a gap between what I think a message board is good and fun for and what it’s become in this thread.

    I think I have a pretty good understanding of suffering. I do not think this particular thread is some grand expression of compassion, either. Mostly, it’s becoming a place where angry people use Trump’s awfulness - and he is awful - as cover to post all kinds of weird critiques and fantasies, including the death of other posters.

    I guess my argument is, the anger wasn’t produced by Trump or, by and large even related to politics, but Trump is being used as cover to express the rage. Maybe I’m wrong.

    A man barged into a rabbi’s New York home with a long knife and stabbed five people Saturday night, officials and witnesses say, shattering Hanukkah celebrations and renewing fears of attacks on the country’s Jewish community.

    The suspect faces five counts of attempted murder and one count of burglary, according to police, the Associated Press reported.


    This follows an ant-Semitic shooting in New Jersey.

    JERSEY CITY — The deadly attack at a kosher supermarket here that left six people, including the two gunmen, dead this week is being investigated as domestic terrorism, officials announced Thursday.

    “We believe the suspects held views that reflected hatred of the Jewish people, as well as the hatred of law enforcement,” New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal said at a news conference.


    I believe we are beginning to see the nation coming together, both extreme left and right are now anti-law enforcement and anti-Semitic. As Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Trump have shown, fighting a common enemy, unites disparate peoples.

    AP has the new Trumpist hero as Grafton E. Thomas. CNN says it's Thomas Grafton.
