Political Hippo Circle Jerk - America, farg YEAH!

Lincoln himself would leave the party. 

It's degenerated into a clusterfarg of willful ignorance and petty farging fear.

the party needs to be leveled. any chance of coming back to reality left when trump got the nod.

The Supreme Court threw out a Texas abortion law in a victory for supporters of abortion rights who argued it would have shuttered all but a handful of clinics in the state.
The 5-3 ruling is the most significant decision from the Supreme Court on abortion in two decades and could serve to deter other states from passing "clinic shutdown" laws.

Who came in second?  Ted Cruz.  I mean, he was the SECOND choice and then a hideous third would have been Kasich or Robonot. 

I mean really??  That's what they're offering.  Nothing but racist scum or empty suits.

Level it indeed.

Lincoln would have been drummed out of the party once the "Southern Strategy" began in the Civil Rights era.

The scary thing is that Ronald Reagan, basically worshipped as a "god" by the neocons, would also be drummed out of today's GOP.  He been seen as too moderate and too willing to compromise with the Democrats.

ive stayed to try and vote against the cruz's out there in favor of humans. at this point though, there's no other choices.

I try to talk sense to other rep voters and its instant argument. this weekend is a great example, jersey guy screaming about how the dems once again have raised nj taxes and about a new gas tax proposal. when I reminded him that Christie isn't a dem, he said, well, yeah but its still the dems fault.

This fargin guy...

[Diomedes]

Is this wrong:  Boris Johnson just had his legs cut out from under him by what can only be called a betrayal even by people who welcome the development, to a man who has precious little hope of actually becoming Prime Minister and whose move to undermine Johnson basically amounts to political martyrdom because though he may save Great Britain from suffering Boris Johnson as P.M., Gove himself is also done in politics.

Am I more or less on track?

And that's just the conservatives.  I have no clue what's going on in Labor.  Or is it with a "u"?

Donny posted this to Twitter then almost immediately deleted it.

I guess offending Ishmael's descendants wasn't enough for him so he went ahead and insulted Isaac's for good measure.

farging buffoon.

come on....its not like he made the graphic or even knows how to use a computer

with a lot of these things i honestly think its just a honest mistake on the campaign. theyre understaffed beyond belief and the staff they do have is farging stupid as they were handpicked by the orange icehole themselves. ignorance is not an excuse, but with trump, you have to understand just how dumb he and everything around his orbit are.

[Diomedes]

I have to agree.  I doubt the guy knows that a star with six points is called the Star of David, nevermind the associations it carries.  He and his ilk may have an echo of a memory from grade school about jews being made to wear a star...but I wouldn't expect many of them to remember even that.  To these folks, that symbol looks like the starburst you would put on a circular from the supermarket advertising 99 cent wonder bread.

Of course they think political correctness is out of control.  They are so undeducated, so basically stupid, that they often don't even know they're being bigoted, chauvinistic, etc.

[Rome]

Things like this happen too many times for it to be coincidental.  This isn't pure stupidity on his part.  It's a calculated plan to sow the seeds of distrust and hate among his gaggle of supporters and potential supporters.  Yeah, he's definitely got the white pride vote sewn up, but these sorts of "clever" dog whistles are guaranteed to catch him more attention.  After all, it's not just Klansmen in Alabama who hate Jews in this country.  It's the mildly bigoted northeastern Catholics he's angling for.  The subliminal message got my attention and I don't hate Jews nor am I remotely antisemitic.  I do have functioning eye balls, though, and that couldn't be more egregious an example of distrust-mongering.

Corrupt...  System...  Government...  Blame... Jews...  Hate...

It's straight out of Goebbels' handbook.

ok, so it turns out the meme originated from a right wing subreddit and made its way around white power twitter, which has morphed into pro trump twitter.

https://mic.com/articles/147711/donald-trump-s-star-of-david-hillary-clinton-meme-was-created-by-white-supremacists#.vN93TxZVP

thats not the least bit surprising. i still attest that whoever tweeted it from trumps account, whether it be the child himself or some staffer, are just that stupid and didnt know what the meme meant. maybe im being too nice to trump to call him too stupid to recognize racism and anti semitism. but i really think that lowly of him.

[General_Failure]

Trump does love the Jews, though. He's on record saying he prefers them handling his money over the Blacks.

[Rome]

If you don't think Trump approves every Tweet that goes out, you're kidding yourself.  He grew up in Queens, for farg's sake.  He knows what a Star of David looks like.  He's the sort of nasty prep school corksucker who used to laugh at kike jokes.  He's absolutely disgusting. 

[MDS]

he used to tweet everything himself, but now at least some of them are coming from his comm team

again that specific meme was lifted off twitter...whether you think trump or trumps team saw it and said "haha jews suck" or if they just posted it without a 2nd thought is splitting hairs
