The rally folk do seem robotic, Banks.   Could it be we're living in a dystopian version of Westworld?

If the robots could de-link from Fox and Fiends propaganda, even briefly, they may figure out they've been programmed by evil anti-American traitors, who will eventually make America weaker, through the destruction of core democratic values, an infatuation with autocratic regimes, and their racism and greed.

Sadly we need to accept that 40+% of America supports a racist/fascist inept wannabe dictator with no regard for core democratic values.

Its up to the rest of us to defeat the evil.

Buh  bye, drone.

No messin with 45.

That was dishonest.   And, in a politics forum, bad faith.   You won't answer the question, you won't provide any facts to support your childish rejection of a real dialog or debate.   I am probably the last Independent on this forum you could have had a real dialogue with, but no, you have been brainwashed by the Trump cult of personality.   You are a pathetic piece of shit.  And don't have the balls to confront the question three members have put to you.

I have a few on ignore.  But dont forget what West Wing (through Spencer and Chenowith)  teaches us - by answering a question you accept its premise.

Barack Obama called a cop stupid in July 2009 and lost white support for the rest of his presidency.

Because the facts did not back him up.


No, it had nothing to do with the facts.

But little you have to say does.
Interesting that the Global Moderator is so ignorant of easily verifiable facts.

Quote
   TRUMP quotes Omar as saying: “You don’t say ‘America’ with this intensity. You say ‘al-Qaida,’ it makes you proud. Al-Qaida makes you proud. You don’t speak that way about America.”

THE FACTS: This is a wholly distorted account of what the Minnesota Democrat said. She did not voice pride in the terrorist group.


Trump is referring to an interview Omar gave in 2013. In it, she talked about studying terrorism history or theory under a professor who dramatically pronounced the names of terrorist groups, as if to emphasize their evil nature.


“The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘al-Qaida,’ he sort of like — his shoulders went up” and he used a menacing, intense tone, she said. Her point was that the professor was subtly rousing suspicions of Muslims with his theatrical presentation, while pronouncing “America” without the intensity he afforded the names of terrorist groups.

At no point did she say “al-Qaida” should be uttered with intensity or pride and that “America” shouldn’t.   

- AP

Double check these facts, if you want.   But you still need to accept the reality:  The President of the United States committed slander, and defamed a member of Congress, in public, on the record.   He singled out a person from a religious and ethnic minority, slandered them, and also directed a racist slur at them.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT?  IS THAT THE AMERICA YOU WANT TO LIVE IN?  DO YOU WANT YOUR GRANDCHILDREN TO SEE THIS PRESIDENT, AS CHILDREN OFTEN DO WITH PRESIDENTS, AS A ROLE MODEL???

GIVE A STRAIGHT FUCKING ANSWER.
That’s easy. There was no slander.

The Democrsts better go tell black and brown folks how they’re gonna kick Donald Trumps ass.

Don’t talk policy, talk shit.

You’re NEVER gonna satisfy the white people you’re trying not to piss off or scare.

You’re never gonna win if you don’t show the folks you absolutely fucking need to win you’ve got their back.

This guy is a crook who is only trying to stay in office so he won’t go to jail.

You want chants? Get this prick out of the White House and then “LOCK HIM UP! LOCK UP HIM UP!”

That's the funny part - you idiots could win in 2020 and that wont be enough for you.  You dont appreciate America's process running its course.

Gorsuch is the best Justice the democrats could have hoped for  based on his decisions this term. Had you been paying attention Gorsuch has been skeptical of  federal power and caused him to break with his conservative brethren on immigration, Indian tribal rights, and criminal procedure issues.

Because the facts did not back him up.
It quickly became a pattern.

Yeah, they did. Cop arrested a guy in his house after he knew it was his house. He was arrested because he didn’t kiss the cop’s ass hard enough.
In your telling.

Nope.  Those were the facts, reported all over the media.   If you have evidence that contradicts them, post it.
Those were not the facts. As Obama admitted.

You still do not get the concept of EVIDENCE.

Okay, not interesting at all. You almost never even try to do so.

Yes, and what you did with it was abuse it.

Lie about why you were abusing it.

And then admitted that you lied about it.

You still think this is a game. It isn't. People have lost their lives because of your "majority" and their refusal to do their jobs.

But what else is new. You support racism and criminality, you deny science and humanity.

He lies, too.

Sure, we deny people safe and sanitary conditions, we grossly overfill our spaces, we refuse to allow doctors in, but... "we do not have a dehumanizing culture at CBP."

And since you don't consider those kids or the adults humans, you probably agree with him.
