NoCalMike Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I wonder if there is a small, large, or no contingent elected GOP Trump supporters left who have only stuck it out thus far to see the day this "massive tax cut" happens. If it fails, much like everything else Trump tries to pass via legislation, I wonder if they all finally start bailing as Trump being their proxy loses much of it's use.

Yes, they are called Republicans. But they aren’t counting Trump, they’re counting on Congress. Any GOPer in the WH will do, Trump just happens to be their useful tool. Just ask @twa They don’t give a damn what he does, just so long as there is a GOPer in the WH to sign whatever GOPer legislation comes off the Hill. If that useful tool manages to destroy several regularory agencies in the process then that’s icing on the cake. Worst case scenario, Trump’s entire Administration is found guilty of collusion and Trump/Pence are both forced from office...Paul Ryan takes over. For GOPers it’s win-win. Truth be told, Trump is actually impeding the Republican’s ability to shove their agenda down our throats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It disturbs me that the things he posts seem like memes he stole from Donald Trump's subreddit. That girl's got no chance of growing up into human being. Being a piece of **** is hereditary. Perhaps a better lesson would be to keep 90% of her candy for himself to teach her about capitalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, Capatalists call it “leveraging someone else’s time and efforts”. As a parent you have the knowledge of where the candy is to be harvested, and you have the means for that harvest to be efficient. The child is just the unskilled labor. They should be thrilled to get 10% of what they would have gotten 0% of without the parent’s resources. It really is that simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 So The Pumpkin King is tweeting again this morning, apparently a dark skinned guy with the beard who acts alone and kills a dozen people with a vehicle is a terrorist, but a millionaire white guy who shoots over 500 and kills 60 is not. This my friends is Republican logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 There is literally no joy in that child's eyes. She knows her father is a POS and using her to advance his POS agenda. 1 minute ago, AsburySkinsFan said: So The pumpkin King is tweeting again this morning, apparently a dark skinned guy with the beard who acts alone and kills a dozen people with a vehicle is a terrorist, but a millionaire white guy who shoots over 500 in kill 60 is not. This my friends is Republican logic Well duh white people cannot be terrorists. But also this guy apparently has been talking to ISIS online or something like that so it may be a little more justified this time. More fun is that Trump is blaming this terrorist attack on Shumer already. Politics is fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 That’s a distinction I just don’t understand. Apparently in order to be a terrorist you need to be talking with organized groups of terrorist people. But if you’re a lone gunman who shoots into a crowd of thousands for 10 minutes killing 60 and wounding 500 then that’s notvterrorism. What the hell are we doing?! It is literally a distinction without a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Don't have me defending these people pls lol. But I can get the idea that a guy we know noithing about is less of a terrorist than a guy we know has been linked to terrorist related material. Whatever that is. Not that I 100% agree. I would call the white guy a terrorist too. But I can understand the argument in this case in particular. In fairness I would have called the dude from Charlottesville a terrorist as well since I know he is a Nazi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 The distinction of being connected to organized terrorism only matters if you posit terrorism as the bigger (or only) threat to public safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying that the distinction is made for political purposes. Basically, terrorism committed by Muslim extremists is a boogie man that the public understands and takes seriously. It's also something conservatives think liberals are weak on and that they can score points with. The ways to handle terrorism suit their agenda--demonize Muslims, ban foreign Muslims from traveling/immigrating here, and fight wars in Muslim countries in Southwest Asia. When it's white guys committing mass murder with legally purchased guns, the proscribed solutions go against their agenda. So they prefer to downplay the threat to public safety from that kind of violence and ramp up the hysteria about Muslim extremists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 All of that is true for sure. Its a shame to say it but mass murder with legally purchased guns is the way or life in America. We arent even trying to change it. Gonna lock our borders so no more scary Muslims can come in and run over 8 people at a time but wont even discuss gun control because its insensitive to the victims. Tough ****.

Llevron Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 You know its not a coincidence he says this stuff about a Muslim attacker. He has been waiting for his chance to disparage some Muslims. I do want to see what he said about the LA guy and the Chancellorsville guy before I jump to hes a ****ing racist mode (even though I know hes a ****ing racist) EDIT: I feel i should add that I wont get up in arms one way or another over what he chooses to call a Murderer as long as hes not trying to say one was better than the other.
