> [@Okrahoma](#): > > Because it is endlessly entertaining to see the impotent sputtering coming from liberal morons (and it will be hilarious to watch the heads 'sploding when in the end it will come to nothing). It wasn’t really entertaining when far right lunatics and Fox News (but I repeat myself) did this with Obama for eight years, constantly trying to conjure up some personal misconduct scandal, hoping it might stick to him. It was just tiresome and pathetic. ---

> [@pulykamell](#): > > That’s all it is. No sane person gives a shit if Obama or Trump bowed or curtsied to the king. Who gives a fuck except partisan lunatics? Yes, Correct - I agree. The same thing with the first lady wearing a head scarf. When Michelle Obama did not wear one, Trump tweeted about how horrible it was, and other Repubs lost their shit. Now Melania does not wear one and … apparently it’s OK now. Nobody cares. Or rather, nobody SHOULD care. But one side loses their shit when the “other guys” do it, and suddenly changes their minds later on when they do it. Selective memory, or they are just assholes - not sure which. ---

> [@Okrahoma](#): > > Well then it’s a win-win. Because it is endlessly entertaining to see the impotent sputtering coming from liberal morons (and it will be hilarious to watch the heads 'sploding when in the end it will come to nothing). Trump is good for everyone. I think we can all agree that in the end, no matter how it all resolves, this presidency will come to nothing. And that will indeed be good for everyone. ---

> [@Okrahoma](#): > > The video shows that he [bent down for the king to put the medal around his neck](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DASNfG6UwAAag1i.jpg). I’m sorry that the fact that Trump bowed to the Saudi King bothers you so much. Facts like this that show the hypocrisy of your idols can be troubling and upsetting. If you need support in emotionally handling these sorts of facts about Trump, like the fact that he rose to political prominence by spreading lies about Obama, then we Dopers would be happy to support you. We Dopers are full of love. ---

This is a big deal, a tremendous deal, believe me when I say that it is a Uuuge deal, the best deal ever made in history! To the American working poor with regards to those hundreds of thousands of jobs? We’re shipping those over seas and we’re taking away your health insurance. NOW SHUT UP AND GET BACK TO WORK! ---
