US Politics

Lets see if we can keep this thread a little more civil.

I found this interview very interesting.  A lot of soft balls thrown at Trump, he explained his back pedalling on his more extreme issues as a lot of his claims as opening bids for negotiation purposes.  Which .. whatever .. I still think that those are insincere claims he used to get elected.

He does now come across way more presidential then he did prior to the election.  A lot of his noise, yelling, and rhetoric has been scaled back.

Do respect this one though:

Quote

 

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

Because it spreads here. Look at the alt-right nutters that were on MBB. 

Look at the alt-right nutters in Alberta, while the Premier *wink*wink* says both sides bad. 

Look at Rebel media, the Sun, National Post, Globe, all owned by alt-right and being pushed by the Cons federally and provincially. 

We're at the start of this fascist movement, not the end. 

The Left Antifa & BLM aren't any better. The rioters in Seattle & Portland. Watching BLM protestors surround a restaurant trying to terrorize seniors in Fort Lauderdale.

I guess the Republicans don’t mind being seen as having no backbone and saying one thing and doing another. It’s incredible how many pawns can be scooped up by one party and support a psychopath.

I suppose I can't support fascists. It's a line I've drawn. And if the fascists are coming here, and I know they are, I'll be standing with those that oppose it. If trlhe media wants to call them antifa or anti-fascists, I'm down. 

I also believe at black lives matter. I know it's hard for some to see past their white privilege but if the police are going to be the terrorists, I'll have to oppose them too. Too many lives lost to protect the white supremacists in the ranks.

I don't like bullies, punks & thugs. And there's enough to go around on both sides. 

Republicans are mirroring their God

There really is no Antifa. It’s a movement, an idea against Fascists.

To swipe antifa and BLM with the same brush as gun carrying supremacists is just silly. You have to know the difference. 
Of course you’re going to get Trumpholes on both sides, the difference being intent. Peaceful protests should not be harassed and threatened. 
Can you honestly say alt right demos are disrupted by the BLM movement or is it just one way?

There is literally a zero percent chance of a left wing coup in the USA.

There is a significant chance of a fascist coup in the USA. 

so, hmmm, who to fear?

Cite some sources for that. The bullies punks and thugs are a vast vast vast majority on one side.

This both sides crap is just enabling the **** heels.

Sources for what? Don't be ridiculous. You want to have a conversation then make some sense.

Sources for all the bullies punks and thugs you claim are on both sides.

Not gonna take the bait... 

It's not bait, it's trying to get you to stop believing nonsense and start looking at facts. 

I mean you supported Jason kenney and his ucp and are now whining because they're doing what they said they would do. You are the poster boy for the older generation believing in feels over reals.

This is the white supremacist bs we saw in Alberta last week. It's always the right doing the nazi Gestapo s***. 

 

 

Trump might be headed to Walter Reed again tonight ..........get the VP on standby

He is what everyone in business circles knew he was a fake, a charlaton, a con man, and a phony, but the bigger story will be when people find out who he really owes money to

So, from what I've seen we can't even have a discussion here without being jumped by what looks like a dozen angry people. So, I'm not even going to try. You guys win. Your collective voices are heard. Congratulations.

The only person refusing a discussion is you. You were asked to put some thought into your claims and you ran away.
