Rachel Maddow

Besides the utter stupidity of comparing Trump to Hitler (and I hate Trump) or suggesting that Trump wants ‘violent discrimination’ against Muslims, just how do you propose to personally stop him? You hace posted previously that you wound never vote for a Rep candidate. How is your stupidity any less stupid than the Donaldster?

There’s nothing stupid about hewing to a position that Donald Trump* will never receive one’s vote.
*Or any Republican for that matter.

A great awakening! All those Republicans suddenly wake up and say “Hey, fuck this shit! How about we build a just, fair and equal country and then be conservative about that! Yeah!”

And Rachel Maddow…she of the swan’s neck, the girlish giggle and the steel-trap mind…well, her ratings soar, and Sean Hannity is seen standing by the freeway entrance with a sign saying “Will Lie My Ass Off For Food!”. Then the Republican Party drafts Bernie!

Well, then I’d vote Republican! Probably cause me some internal hemorrhage…

If you think a Muslim database isn’t a little Hitler-like, and in the important way, you’re a fucking twat.

The fact that Trump is at the head of the pack being hooted on by imbeciles, racists, and trailer-folk, is why I, personally, wouldn’t vote for a GOP candidate. They want to enact stupid laws, and as it happens, evil-laws like Trump is calling for.

Ahem. Paid ten grand for it fifteen years ago, two bedrooms, kitchen, liv., central air and heat. $400/mo rent. Don’t have to be rich to live well, but it helps if you’re smart.

And colorful neighbors! Like those nice young men and their motorcycles, down the way! Science enthusiasts, it appears. Saw them unloading beakers, bunsen burners, condenser coils. And a delicate odor wafts from there, kinda like perfume, but not quite…

Do you know, they always go outdoors to smoke? Sometimes twenty, thirty yards away…

You aren’t what I considered trailer folk. You’re a frugal-kook, and I mean that in the best way possible.

I was unfairly using trailer-folk as a shorthand for the GOP Base, with their mullets, Nascar memorabilia, confederate flags, guns, and their Jeezus. Mea Culpa.

Time to invest in some roman candles.

No prob, Bob.

Also, friends. Friends can be your friends.

The “Hitler liked parks and highways” argument is not your friend. That argument is pralines and dick.

Easy, not voting for a Republican is not stupid at all. Given their politics, that’s actually a smart move.

And I plan on speaking out against him at every turn here or in real life about what a stupid idiot he is, and moreso if he gets the nomination. Its not much, but its better than supporting the guy or his racist followers. Its funny, I knew precisely that if I wrote that I don’t plan on “letting” him win, someone’s going to pop up and challenge me on how I plan on stopping him. Good thing for me there are probably a hundred million Americans who feel the same way

And I don’t think its stupid at all to compare databases. I specifically did not mention that it was exactly like Hitler, I used the words “moving in that direction” for a reason. I knew if I said it was just like Hitler that I would be wrong, but it is in the same vein. Its one step down to a lot of bad stuff happening in the future and I cannot let that happen without speaking up.

I have a tough time getting annoyed that a PhD in Political Science gets all snooty about how much she knows about politics.

Well, maybe, but she had to go to Africa to get it, one of them Rhodesia scholars…

Geez, I never realized it was actually named for the same dude.

was hitler a big park builder?

I googled that phrase, and my SDMB post was the numero uno hit!
Fucking Win.

I’ve been wondering if chappachula is going to nut up and address his lying. I went back to the transcript and did a quick search for “Hasan”. The name appears 23 times in the transcript. Yet, chappachula posted a long anecdote about his clear recollection that Maddow specifically avoided using the name. What gives?

I have lots of books. Care to recommend one in specific? One that backs up your claim?

Theresienstadt had some lovely parks, also string quartets playing Mozart.

She has stated that on her show. Doesn’t want to “reward” killers by mentioning their names and adding to their infamy.

I’d suggest(seriously) that he has a false memory, much like Donald Trump has a (false) memory of “thousands” of people in NJ cheering 9/11.

And Brian Williams had a false memory of his copter being shot down.

I bet Williams wishes he could get away with what Trump can with his supporters.

Only because the fucking hot-dyke will never fuck me. :mad:

Otherwise, go, Rachel! :slight_smile:
