How has Former President Trump pissed you off today?

The BBQ Pit

Those interested in knowing the truth? Or simply knowing what they’re talking about, perhaps? After all, you’re the one who’s so quick to call people stupid whenever they post something that your limited intellect supposes to be in error, so it seems you should want to be doubly sure of your own words and suppositions. You aren’t, of course. You just shoot from the hip in blind obedience to whatever moronic stereotypes and idiotic imaginings pop into your otherwise empty head.

A few points of fact:

I don’t watch/listen to Alex Jones and don’t know who he is.

I don’t watch/listen to Sean Hannity, and as a matter of fact don’t like him much based upon what little I’ve seen of him.

The few times I’ve seen Ann Coulter, I’ve been amused at her skill at tweaking her opponents. I know little of her beliefs and have not heard her speak at length and have not bought or read any of her books.

I do not watch or listen to Fox News or the Fox television network. This means that before he got the boot I didn’t watch or listen to Bill O’Reilly either.

I do read Fox’s news website, which is very different from what I’ve been given to understand is Fox News on tv. It’s more or less a strait forward news site that admittedly skews right, but isn’t dishonest or misleading so far as I know.

I don’t listen to Rush Limbaugh. I did in the early nineties but stopped after his tv show ‘mistakenly’ introduced Chelsea Clinton as the White House dog.

Believe it or not, most conservatives/Republicans are perfectly capable of watching the machinations of the left, and, by utilizing an upbringing that included discipline, proper schooling and common sense, recognize the many things that are wrong with the liberal approach and therefore find themselves critical of it.

Further, I’ve said all this numerous times on the board over the years. Why are you so stupid and ignorant on these issues when the truth has been right in front of your eyes? You really need to back off on these laughable declarations of your opponents’ so-called stupidity, given that, you know, most of what you think and say is vastly more stupid than anything one hears from your opponents.

(But of course I mean all this in the nicest way. Ta.) :slight_smile:

2943

Marvellous. Sounds like quite a colourful chap! Thank you for the explanation. :slight_smile:

Yeah, you were unclear. It’s pretty easy for me to avoid the “horror show” happening in the US because I don’t live there and get most of my news from British or Australian sources. All the “OMG our president said something I don’t like!” stuff earns people internet brownie points and upvotes but realistically it doesn’t have far reaching effects for the average person in a Western country.

We all know the US and North Korea aren’t going to go flinging ICBMs at each other - even if the North Koreans fired one, their entire country would be radioactive glass before Mr Trump had finished tweeting about how he’d just turned North Korea into a glazier’s delight. The North Koreans don’t want that, the US doesn’t want that, no-one wants that. It’s not going to happen.

Mr Trump is not dictator for life. There are elections in what, two years? Even if he wins those, he can only be El Presidente for another four years afterwards and then it’s someone else’s turn to sit in The Comfy Chair With The Big Windows Behind It.

2944

It may seem jingoistic for me to say this, but America’s failures affect the entire world. The world’s economy, culture, and security rely to some extent on American power. American failure will cause worse than mere amusement in other countries. Australia may be better insulated than many countries, but the advice to learn Chinese may still be good advice.

And if you think, a 4-year Trump Presidency will do only four years’ worth of damage, I suggest you read the same essay I recommended in my last post. (PostS? :smack: )

2945

So. Still no admission that your “97% health benefits” was … mistaken?
Still no admission that you’ve developed your fabulous knowledge of European socialism without ever owning a passport?

2946

What 97% health benefits? I have no recollection of that.

Is it your proposition that no one lacking a passport may have accurate knowledge about any other country? What about history then? If one can’t know anything about Germany today, does that mean no one who hasn’t been there may know of or speak knowingly of Hitler, of Normandy, of Auschwitz? We have some posters from Canada, England and France on this board. Why do you never make this ludicrous claim when they (as liberals virtually always do) insult or criticize the U.S.?

But to answer your question, I’ve told you before that since you’ve reverted to being a dick I wasn’t going to answer any of your questions. That assertion still stands.

2947

If you have an overfamiliarity with both, I hope to god you never get entrusted with either baby-sitting or dog-sitting.
I am genuinely curious when you will reach your tipping point on Trump and switch to claiming that he was never a true Republican (he isn’t), or a true conservative (he isn’t, except as far as he represents and appeals to the very cruelest forms of social “conservatism” and the most selfish of fiscal “conservatism”), or perhaps that he was a liberal/Democrat plant all along.

But hey, you do you, Boo.
Stand by your Man, as Tammy said.

2948

With the proper upbringing, including “discipline, proper schooling and common sense”, it is indeed easy to scrutinize and identify the problems with the *other *side.

2949

Humpy just straight up lies. Does he believe the lie? Is he incapable of grasping reality?

Maybe this is the real zombie apocalypse. The Trump zombies are hungry for brains because they’ve lost their fucking minds.

2950

There’s an extraordinarily good chance someone from Canada, England, or France has been to the US. The inverse is not necessarily true.

2951

I’m sorry you were forced to admit that you’ve never had a passport, Starving, but it seems you don’t need much knowledge or experience to be so very smart about so many things! Congratulations!!

When I saw this I thought maybe you didn’t know that 100% minus 3% was 97%, but now I see you did that arithmetic correctly in your post. I’m sure it’s unfair to hold you responsible for bullshit from the stupider Starving who, once upon a time, thought Trump had an MBA. … But the following was posted by you *less than a week ago. * I’ve highlighted the portions you don’t seem to remember.

Does this jog your recollection?
It’s good to hear you’ve revised your opinion of the Donald. I still treasure your earlier view, with its inimitable hyperbole:

2952

We can only hope there’s no one else in the country remotely like him, but sadly, it seems there are.

2953

As long as he gets his jollies here, never. But if everyone ignored him and did not respond to his posts for, oh, a week… he’d go away. But whatever. :rolleyes:

2954

62M of them. All stupid enough to believe he really is a stable genius.

2955

Only because the King of Debt took out a 1.5 million million dollar loan, gave most of it to his friends and a small amount to his base of middle class supporters.

I got a form letter from my mortgage company yesterday telling me I could refinance and take out $225,000.00 in cash to do whatever I want with. That’s a lot of money. I could travel the world, staying in nice hotels and eating in fine restaurants. And I would look rich. And I would feel rich. But I’m going to decline the offer and drag my butt to work tomorrow. Because I’d actually BE poorer and a lot worse of in the long run if I borrowed money irresponsibly.

2956

As sack of shit is not just dead fecal matter, sometimes, it contains parasitic worms. I’ve not had much experience with such, but they probably do have more self awareness and honesty than the humpster.

That’s been their game for quite some time now. Threaten great harm upon the people of the country to get democrats to agree to lesser harms against the people of the country.

If you claimed to not follow Jones, or not to listen to what he has to say, or to consider his opinions, then those would be valid and believable rebuttals. You do tend to use the same types of arguments and seem to have similar beliefs, but that could just be coincidence.

To claim you don’t know who he is though, that’s just a lie.

To be fair, trump probably is smarter than most of them.

2957

WH calling for the “nuclear option” again. The shutdown is a great excuse for him to renew his calls for something that would move him closer to his aspirations of becoming a dictator (IMO).

That is what is “pissing me off” today, although scaring me is more like it.

2958

Nope. I post reality. You people can’t deal with it.

2959

You said the stock market was stagnant, I posted a chart showing it wasn’t. You lied.

2960

He also claims there are 54 republicans in the senate.

Though, to be fair, that may not be a lie, it may just be early onset dementia.

2961

The consensus is calling you a liar. And a delusional idiot.
