The white working class who vote Republican against their own interests don’t care if the GOP guts policies against their interest, as long as their life is better than those blacks and gay people.

I actually don’t think Trump personally cares about GLBTQ people one way or the other. He used to be part of the Manhatten elite and Hollywood both of which have a significant GLBTQ contingent. But he doesn’t have principles to avoid throwing them under the bus to feed his rampantly homophobic base. Pence probably…
There was already a million articles on Linda by FOX and Brietbart after the Women’s March “Women’s March Organized by Supporter of Sharia Law” *headdesk*
New York City and LA, two of the most multicultural cities in America and one of which was the victim of a terrorist attack, are vehemently against the travel ban and restricting immigration. Maybe when people actually work and live beside *gasp* Mexicans and Muslims they realize they’re not the demons FOX news makes…
Rachel Maddow was talking about a poll done by mnsbc where over half of Trump supporters said it was okay for Trump to defy a Supreme Court order (referring to the travel ban), basically making Trump a dictator. I’m pretty sure most of his supporters wouldn’t mind if he ended elections and declared himself Emperor.
He actually said in one of his rallies in the Rust Belt “I’m just like another one of you blue-collar guys, an average Joe worker.” Dude, you live in a gold-plated apartment with a supermodel wife and inherited millions of dollars from your Dad. How was anyone dumb enough to fall for this con?
This is really sad, but I actually saw that argument on a tweet by a conservative pundit ....That this was a win-win - if the shooter was Muslim, Trump’s fear-mongering of Muslims would be justified and if the shooter was white, this was proof that “multiculturalism doesn’t work.”
Yeah, as someone who actually works as a Crown Prosecutor in that province, I can say the vast majority of crimes are committed by white people and one refugee out of 40 000 isn’t going to change my mind on whether we should let refugees in.
But to be clear (sorry if it wasn’t) I was referring to the zero terrorist…
They said they already had impeachment proceedings lined up “the second Hillary takes her hand off the Bible”. Over Benghazi and an email server.
Yeah, Canada took in 40,000 and we’re 1/9th the population of the States.
The fact that Trump knew that Flynn lied about sanctions in his conversation to Russia and was potentially compromised, but let Flynn handle national security matters with the highest level of clearance is enough to impeach him. However, it will never happen with the current spineless GOP (compared to the GOP of…
McCain’s a spineless partisan hack like the rest of the GOP. He may talk a big talk, but he always rolls over and votes on party lines.
I’m actually curious why he refuses to grow up a spine and stand up to Trump. The other GOP I understand because they have to run for re-election and don’t want to lose his base. He won in 2016 and I doubt he would run again at 86.
Trump supporters are sending him death threats now.
I will never understand the “she would be worse” argument - which I actually heard from Bernie bros throughout the entire election. One of my friends tried to argue that Hillary is a predictable war hawk, while Trump is unpredictable so Hillary would be worse. Trump isn’t unpredictable, he’s doing exactly everything…
Agreed. People are being WAY too optimistic that Trump will be forced out. The current spineless GOP crew would not impeach him even if there was overwhelming evidence he was committing blatant treason with Russia. And with a steady diet of FOX news and Brietbart, his base will never turn on him. Already I saw…
I read this terrifying article by The Atlantic https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/03/how-to-build-an-autocracy/513872/ which talks about a future where Trump wins re-election in 2020 and the media grows warmer to Trump after CNN and Washington Post are sold off. I immediately renewed my subscription to…
If it’s Petreaus, he’ll have to notify his probation officer because he’s still on probation.
He’s a former Navy SEAL. He knows a sinking ship when he sees one.
