Trump Tweets Apparent Call for More U.S. Nuclear Weapons

Archie Bunker’s back! Good grief. Trump supporters really are like Carrol O’Connor’s caricature of the 1970s Republican base.

You probably don’t usually know who the *actually *tough guys are, because their distinguishing feature is that they really are tough; not that they boast about being tough. It’s a common phenomenon that the person who boasts the loudest about having a virtue often the least of it.

Convince yourself, if that’s what you want. It was the dumb fucking Republicans that voted for Trump that can pat themselves on the back. Their bridges are in the mail, I’m sure.

Court jesters usually feel they’re above everyone else and are a part of the '‘elite’.

Little do they know.

It’s as if Russia and what they’re up to is an afterthought to you.

Any comment or condemnation towards them you want to spew?

Nah. It’s all our fault. Our responsibility to be reasonable.

Blinded by partisanship is what I think you are. Facts be damned.

You mean like helping get Trump elected?

And the real danger to the world is the US, not Russia.

You’re drivelling. Did you actually think you said something?

You’re oblivious it’s obvious and you’re obviously oblivious.

There you go again, thinking we’re the worst of the worst.

What society, organization, whatever, do you most consider yourself apart of then?

I’m honestly curious. If it’s not not us (the US) then who?

Canadian? German? South Africa?

You obviously have feelings about the matter, who you relate to?

Or are you one of the lame kind that excuses your hyperbole by saying nobody goes far enough. Even your own party.

You rebel you.

America just put the worst of the worst into power; it doesn’t matter what the rest of America is like.

I’m not a joiner. And I’m certainly not patriotic at all.

You say this. But then you also say this:

Yes, you’d “long decided” to vote for Trump, and no amount of pointing out how stupid, irresponsible, or insane anything he said was could have changed your mind. But we’re the ones who are blinded by partisanship. What the fuck, dude? This shit matters. The words of the President of the United States carry immense weight. And when the president-elect decides the best place to talk about ramping up a fucking arms race, apropos of nothing, is his fucking twitter feed… That’s a problem. If you can’t figure that out, you’re a goddamn idiot.

We’re getting way off topic here. Don’t let Czarcasm know this, or he’ll have a fit.

But to answer your question, yes, I decided to vote early on for Trump. Your misgivings notwithstanding. I thought (and still think) it was the best choice.

You have your opinion and I have mine.

Why?

Because what he says I believe he means. And what he’s saying I mostly agree with.

And it’s a hell of a lot better than the alternative that’s only interested in the optics of the day and how best to lie to the American public (and to the voters that voted them in). The stooges.

Fuck em. I want someone honest and who says it like it is.

So you believe in his blatantly bigoted and unconstitutional plans. Nice.

Trump has walked back almost every single one of his “talking points” during the campaign. How is he not the biggest liar?

Damn, you really are stupid. Trump is not honest and he hasn’t a clue as to what anything is. He’s completely out of his depth. And, evidently, so are you.

I knew this was a setup but I answered anyway. In-artful as it was. But Ok.

What parts are bigoted and unconstitutional? Be specific, please.

You guys have never understood this point, and apparently never will. I don’t care if he ever delivers on the exact, specific, details your side is so adamant about him delivering. Hillary isn’t going to be locked up tomrrow, just because. A fifty foot wall isn’t going to be built, paid for by the Mexicans, ever.

The gist of what he’s saying I wholeheartedly agree with though - corruption at any level needs to be prosecuted and those guilty of it and put in jail. Forever as far as I’m fucking concerned. That’s the nastiest of the nastiest crimes against the people.

We’re the United States. We’re a sovereign nation with borders and rules for immigration and exile. The fucking Canadians have a harsher entrance policy than we in the US have now. We decide who comes in and when. It’s not an open border for all to enter whenever and wherever.

Etc etc etc…

Yeah yeah yeah. Heard it a thousand times over by now. Doesn’t mean anything anymore.

Blame your side for that.

Bolding mine…

You are one stupid motherfucker if you think that Donald Trump is going to do anything about corruption.

And do his actions back that up? Is he “draining the swamp”? Has he even taken the absolutely standard step of placing his assets in a blind trust, to ensure that his own businesses don’t form a massive conflict of interest?

Has he fuck.

This is what you don’t seem to get. Trump talks a great game. He lies like a fucking natural. And then when it comes to his actual actions, he does nothing to back it up and you eat his shit with a fucking soup ladle. Go on - tell me. What’s Trump doing to fight corruption?

Then you are both an idiot and a bigot. A bigot for agreeing with him, and an idiot for believing a con man.

And corruption? A vote for Trump* or* the Republicans is a vote *in favor of *corruption.

Inartful? It was a simple and direct question. It’s not my fault you fell for the blather of a fool (Trump).

Banning someone from entering the United States based solely on their religion.
Banning an American citizen service member from re-entering the United States because of their religion.
ETA: I guess you completely forgot about Trump whining about an Hispanic judge trying a case Trump was involved in.

First, who is “you guys”? Next, what is “my side”? Third: you admit that you know the guy lied to you and yet you’re supporting him, and at the same time bitching about other people whom you call liars.

You seem to be forgetting that Trump is corrupt.

Who’s disputing that the United States has immigration control? I mean besides your hero liar and the fools who support him.

Funny thing. When I see the sun in the morning, I tend to say “Good morning”; when I see a lying sack of dung like Trump, I tend to say “That there is a lying sack of dung”.

Again, what is “my side”?

No.

No.

No. Further on this point: The German Bank itself took action on that so that they wouldn’t have a conflict of interest.

That about sums it up.

Trump doesn’t talk a great game. What he does is pander to the lowest and hope that there are enough of the moronic to vote his way. As it turns out, there were enough in enough places to put him in office. “Cry, the Beloved Country!”

What’s fascinating is HL says he knows the dude’s a conman and a liar, but still puts his trust in him. WTF?

That’s certainly true this go-around.

I think most of Trump’s tweets are triggered by something he reacts to as a threat to his self-image as the best and greatest.

Hillary wins the popular vote? Unpossible for the greatest candidate with the greatest win ever not to have won the popular vote - must be huge amounts of voter fraud.

Russian interference in the election? Unpossible for Trump not to have won simply because he is the greatest candidate with the greatest win ever - must be lies.

Russia planning to build more bombs? Unpossible for Trump not to be the greatest Commander-in-Chief with with the most, biggest, and shiniest bombs ever - must build more.

There’s no thought or policy behind them, just wounded ego.

Apparently, Trump himself thinks that Ms. Clinton is the better choice. Could that be why he’s, essentially, turning into her?

You might notice, reading that link, that something one of Trump’s relatives is attempting has gotten South Korea’s president impeached. Fun reading!

You seem to have fallen into a grave error: your right to have an opinion does not equal that opinion’s right to be free of mockery. Unsubstantiated opinions are just nonsense.
