President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

It is always interesting watching people like QWERT arguing for the wrong side of history. Is there any doubt that he and his type would have been LOLing at those damn, dirty hippies that were undermining our brave leadership during the Vietnam protests? Or how about those damn uppity negroes that were making it difficult for hard working southerners to take a bus to work. LOL.

 

Turns out he is.

Another MCCA member.

Damn that common sense gun reform!

 

Wow, you are an American hero. At home with your kids. Congratulations on greatness. (I am not making light of you being with your kids but it seems like an odd thing to brag about. My father was with us nearly every single Sat. Because... he was a father.)

 

Oh, this is fucking rich ...



(Disclaimer ... I'm one Republican who has never liked her, except if she does a naughty librarian music video)

Seriously, Sarah? You're passing judgement on someone else's kid? Maybe David Hogg used some F-bombs but from what we know about him, he hasn't knocked anyone up (as your daughter allowed to happen to herself) and he hasn't allegedly beaten up his father (as your son was accused of doing).

He's the perfect child compared to your whelps.

 

Swearing is still awesome

 

Sarah Palin gettin' the vapors over a 17-year-old kid cussing. I do declare....

 

Sure are a lot of snowflakes whining today about the protesters being big meanies.

 

Right-wingers are in an unenviable position. Hundreds of thousands are teenagers are protesting because they are literally scared for their lives and standing in opposition to them is a hard-right organization that funds so many of their beloved GOP candidates and politicians.

At the same time, right-wingers have to defend the indefensible presidency of Donald J. Trump, (a beneficiary of NRA largesse) who jettisons advice from professionals in favor of the inane blabbering of Fox News "personalities" like he was a generic septuagenarian in a rumpus room at Leisure World in Mesa.

 

Tom Nichols is a smart guy who knows he's spent years on the wrong side of history and can't stand it. He knows what the right thing is, and often says it, but he hates doing it. Nichols also completely forgets the violence that suppressed the marches he cite and how outspoken the marchers were denouncing it. He's not a bad guy, but he's not much of a historian except in his Cold War specialty.

 

Getting shot at in school doesn't qualify as inhumane?

I don't know if we'll see a spike in younger voters, but they don't need to tick up much to make a major impact this fall.

 

Can you point me to any?
