This is what a president looks like when all they know how to do is stick to a lie and hope people believe you. He is damned lucky there are as many rubes in the world as their are.

What a load of crap.

People only hate Trump because his policies are 100% awful. He is the bad combination of a raging narcissistic ******* without being a good president.

Nah, they've been working hard to make sure people associate democrat and socialist for a long time.

Democratic nominee should pick hillary as running mate just to watch the right's heads explode. Own the regressives!

Ferraro has been good from the get go. Check out is call on Patrick stefan ******* up an empty net goal vs. The oilers back in his early time with sports net. Need more colour guys not afraid to flat out say when guys **** up.

Once again, point missed. The point isn't believing anything just because it is reported. It's about knowing what is true and what isn't. You don't have to watch media all the time to know when someone is being untruthful. For example, global news was on the other day and the lady interviewing an expert was engaging in leading questions trying to get certain answers. It's not that the expert was being untruthful, just he was being led to answer in a certain way. But you can parse through what was being said and take the truth and discard the nonsense. And again you make it partisan. It's not about being partisan, it's about being pragmatic. If a "leftist" idea is good it's good. If a right wing idea is bad it's bad. Nothing Trump is doing is good, and what the left is suggesting is far superior. But you keep on pretending that leftists are the real danger.

Your problem right there is the rejecting corporate media... as if independent media is any better. There is even less vetting process there. The key with consuming media is to be able to tell which is truthful and which is not. Which requires the ability to think critically. So again, you use the fox news playbook of deflection and false equivalence. Stop thinking of it as a team sport and be objective. But instead you are all in defending shitty people with shitty policies because you hate and fear change and progress. Seriously I vote right of centre every time, but it's ******* hard right now because of how truly awful conservative actions have become, and Trump embodies the worst of the worst of it.

No I hit the nail on the head. You don't have to defend fox news, you are just using their playbook. Works on stupid people with no interest in looking at things through a critical lens, aka regressives. No you desperately try and claim you're not like that!1!11!!!! Yet you embody everything wrong with the conservative movement these days. Lies, misinformation, policy guided by hate and fear.

No you don't, you hand wave away stuff and try and pretend things are as bad when they aren't even remotely the same. You are nothing but a partisan trying to justify your teams shitty behaviour with false equivalencies. That might work on stupid people, but folks here aren't as dumb as fox news viewers.

Except you never criticized trump once for his rampant nepotism.... and which democratic president has given his kids senior level White House jobs? You can keep screaming that it's the same, but it's very clearly not the same. You just want to pretend it is so you can overlook shitty right wing behaviour so you can keep getting the hateful bigoted stuff passed.

Republicans ain't gonna win an argument about nepotism. They just aren't. Trump and his idiot kids aren't even trying to be subtle about it.

He never had a hero status, he was just given props for doing the right thing. It's rare among Republicans.

Air Canada was a nickname from college was it not? Black is just a guy who loves to use players nicknames that's all.

You and false equivalencies.

She may have run a horrible campaign, but she had arguably the most substance of any candidate. She would have been my top choice not because I'm woke or any of that nonsense but because she truly was the smartest one of the bunch with the most well reasoned and researched positions. But she didn't get the support and is out of the race because Bernie inspires the progressive side more and Biden is the status quo choice.

So offer proof that gabbard is being discriminated based on gender... the dnc wants Biden as it's candidate just as it did Hillary. It's not sexism, it's just wanting the person who is in with the right circles.

Devil's advocate is about presenting a different opinion as a way to get someone to think about their beliefs. This is not that. This is trying to steer the conversation into a different and unrelated direction. It's pretty text book right wing distraction technique.

But is the writer wrong in his description of trump? Seems to nail it pretty much on the nose.

God willing Pierce avoids the old Lapo turtle plan with a lead and we can get some wins that are easier on the old heart (and liver as the sphincter clenching tight games lead to much more beer consumption)

So if it's a mental state then let everyone be whatever they want to be, again, what's the difference? If someone makes that choice why are you trying to protect them from their own possible regret? Isn't it more harmful to deny the people who it would benefit that option? And I must have missed where we started talking about puberty blockers on children... sounds like patented regressive deflection bringing up scary sounding topics that aren't really relevant to the discussion at hand.

Please explain how it is potentially damaging to recognize that gender isn't as black and white as boy or girl. What harm comes from it?

Why does the bits someone has between their legs and their choice of gender identity matter one iota to you? That's the only ideology here. Their life their choices who the **** cares? It's not that progressives have cornered the market on logic, it's that regressives have completely rejected it.

Ignorance and small mindedness. The hallmarks of trump supporters. Terrified of the world moving forward.

Just amazing that people will believe that Trump pulling numbers out of his ass knows more than people who's entire job is to study these things. The anti-intellectualism in the world right now makes my brain hurt.
