President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

You forgot to add the racial factor. It probably goes unsaid.

 

Sure. But some is almost all here. It isn’t me - but it’s almost all. You surely know that.

 

I do. Your point is entirely valid.

You know why you can be dismissive? Because you’ve never been one of the vulnerable. Good for you.

Remember which party is saying "hell yes" and "bingo!" to confiscating already-purchased firearms.

 

I can be dismissive because the vulnerable are just as vulnerable no matter who sits in the stupid Oval Office.

Police did stupid shit with Obama in the Oval Office. Killed an unarmed black man in my neighborhood in 2013 after he wrecked his car and was looking for help. Twelve (12!) shots.

Police do stupid shit with Trump in the Oval Office.

And I have to say it's interesting how you say I would be less dismissive if it "affected me."

When Shottie has been lambasted for taking that attitude.

 

"Good for you" is as dismissive as anything he or I have said. I'm not going to walk a mile in your shoes, because I can't. Nobody's pulling me over without just cause any time soon. If I see it happening to you and I'm nearby, I will not ignore it. But ...
