The 2018 Trump Presidency thread

[David Wooderson]

I'm waiting for the defense of Trump to state that Trump obviously didn't sexually assault anyone because he's paying off the women he actually had sex with... sigh.
Wait, someone already did (seriously, I hadn't seen that comment). Gross.

You're outrage over Trump's alleged business transactions prior to taking office and complete dismissal of an actual violent rapist in chief is very revealing and as always hilarious.

So what are your views on prostitution uggle's?

Because I believe when strict controls are enforced within the industry it is not unlike many other jobs.

It's creeps like the Clintons and Jeffery Epstein that crap in the punch bowl and make it a permanent grey/black market industry that attracts nefarious individuals that run and operate it.

Inherently evil people are a reality of mankind, but the overwhelming majority of good honest people whose ethics are rooted in Christianity in the western world has outweighed the evil that is rampant in 3rd world countries and inner city ghettos.

I see no problem with an adult women of their own free will choosing to prostitute themselves.

I find it abhorrent to turn your employees into prostitutes, which is what people like Bill and Harvey get their kicks from.

Lol, yes, and Clinton was also a drug smuggler too! Another unfounded charge leveled in that POS "documentary" The Clinton Chronicles, that was produced by Citizens for [not so] Honest Government and Jerry "My First Time was in an Outhouse" Falwell. Man, the tinfoil hat brigade is endlessly entertaining.

My outrage? Ummm... okay.

He paid off women to keep quiet about his extramarital affairs. Plural. If you think this is the only (or worst) body he had buried I have some prime Manhattan real estate to sell you. PM me about it! :D

As Trump's Russian friends call it, it's kompromat. And a president who can be blackmailed is a bad thing.

Bill Clinton is loathsome. Let your narrow little mind process that opinion.

So what are your views on prostitution uggle's?

I'm assuming you're wasted and asking me.

Prostitution should be legalized and regulated to protect sex workers from sexually transmitted diseases and potentially abusive customers. Also they can form unions to improve working conditions. See: Nevada.

Trump hasn't been caught by "rouge" Feebs seeing a prostitute yet. Perhaps the subtle differences between porn, Playboy and prostitution are lost on a righteous man like yourself. Like Roy Moore!

Or maybe Trump has been caught with a prostitute and it's not in my news feed yet. Who knows?

Because I believe when strict controls are enforced within the industry it is not unlike many other jobs.

Why would you believe that? Why would anyone believe that?

It's creeps like the Clintons and Jeffery Epstein that crap in the punch bowl and make it a permanent grey/black market industry that attracts nefarious individuals that run and operate it.

Acknowledged as something you wrote.

Inherently evil people are a reality of mankind, but the overwhelming majority of good honest people whose ethics are rooted in Christianity in the western world has outweighed the evil that is rampant in 3rd world countries and inner city ghettos.

I'm guessing what you know about any of these topics could fit in Trump's favorite bible verse in 2 Corinthians.

I see no problem with an adult women of their own free will choosing to prostitute themselves.

I'm sure you don't. What about men?

I find it abhorrent to turn your employees into prostitutes, which is what people like Bill and Harvey get their kicks from.

How about that Roy Moore? Are you a Rob Porter fan too? That black eye was an accident!

There's enough grossness on both sides of the aisle. It's not okay that you don't see it.
It's kind of sad you don't think anyone else can.

If only the DNC hadn't rigged the nomination for Hillary we would probably have President Bernie right now. Sad. I hope he's still got it in him to run again in a couple years.

Yep, the DNC fucked up big time. I'm nearly certain Bernie would have won. That guy is the real deal. Such a stupid move on their part, and we're all paying for it.

I agree. Because Bernie wouldn't have taken the marginally blue Rust Belt states for granted like Hillary did. But Bernie will be 79 by Election Day 2020. He could still perform a major service by steering the direction of the debate, but I think he's too old to be a viable candidate, just like Biden.

NSFW:

1: please keep the memes in the lounge
2: this is not the Bill Clinton Presidency thread.
3: Bill and Hillary are not the amoral monsters the right wingers have made them out to be. This is coming from someone who did not vote for Bill nor Hillary. Please be respectful with your political disagreements.

Such a stupid move on their part, and we're all paying for it.

How? Hillary stood a better chance of winning. I did not want to see Sanders win. Hillary is and was the obvious choice from a non-democratic party point of view. Did you vote in your state's primary? I did. I think a lot of people who are really upset by this need to become more politically active, and realize that the best candidates normally don't win their party's nomination (I didn't vote for Johnson in the primaries).

he's too old to be a viable candidate

This is an unfair assessment. People can be mentally fit long into their lives. He talks well and is mentally sound, I just don't agree with many of his political views.

I disagree, I don't think Hillary had a better chance at all. There were already plenty of Democrats who weren't too into her. To many people she represented the status quo. Bernie had a really passionate base and represented something more in line with the sort of place Obama ran from. He has a long track record of working towards social justice and against corruption. I personally know a number of people who told me they would have voted for Bernie but they voted for Johnson because they couldn't vote for Hillary.

And yeah I did vote in the primary.

 

[Captain.Heroin]

Glad to hear you voted in the primaries man.

To hear Hillary pushed voters to Johnson is funny (it is often the other way around; people fleeing from the sinking Trumptanic, jumping into the last Libertarian life boats )

 

[mal3volent]

There was polling throughout the primary that showed a clear and substantial advantage for Bernie going into the general.

 

[aihfl]

This is an unfair assessment. People can be mentally fit long into their lives.

I used to live in Vermont. I like Bernie and I've been fortunate enough to meet him on several occasions. But anyone who thinks that his advanced age won't be made an issue is living in a vacuum.

Of course it will be made an issue, the question is, should it be? I say no, not only because it is ageism, but because age is not necessarily an indication of ones health. Not to mention, if he were to die, there is a line of succession that is seamless.

 

[aihfl]

No, it shouldn't. But the issue of McCain's age and health was raised and he was only 71 in 2008.

 

[JessFR]

And yet he's still alive and still working.

Granted, we didn't know that at the time. And at the time the cost of mistake was that we'd see President Palin.

"working" these decrepit senators clinging to life are not reading briefs/policy and studying laws for 10 hours a day like they should be. On the other hand i doubt that even the younger lawmakers are doing much substantive work. the focus is all on campaign funding

 

[alasdairm]

part of me is surprised that this went without comment in here. but another part is not surprised at all because every day of the trump presidency brings more of the bizarre and the surreal and demonstrates, to me, that this guy could not be less fit for the office.

so, in the wake of the parkland shooting, president trump held a 'listening session' with survivors and family members. press caught a shot of his crib notes for the meeting:

#5 "i hear you"

what kind of sociopathic moron needs a note like that to remind him to pretend to be a human being to a group of kids who were just terrorized by a gunman in their school and saw their own classmates die?

[Noodle]

At this point I am more concerned about a GOP that endorsed this narcissistic buffoon.

I feel like there are more important things to consider, like the amount of money being skimmed off tax paying Americans by this farce of an administration.

How many kids do you think suggested arming the fucking teachers???????????????

that is overlooked by the fact that they save $100 dollars a month. Yea their schools are shit and the wealth inequiality continues to increase due to this skimming, but that 100$ a month makes it all alright (along with the bashing of mexicans of course!)

It was in one ear & out the other with Trump.

A teacher at that school was interviewed on MSNBC this AM. He owns a gun but said that if he had wanted to be a cop he would have been a cop instead of a teacher. He pointed out that the cops would likely shoot anyone who had a gun, teacher or not. You can't solve complex societal issues with simplistic solutions. This will just serve the NRA & the gun manufacturers they represent.
