President Trump - Page 172 - Politics version 7.0 -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

In both cases Democrats and independents are correct in their understanding of
how things have changed since Obama became President, but Republicans claim
by a 64/27 spread that unemployment has increased and by a 57/27 spread that
the stock market has gone down.

Republicans are stunningly ignorant of basic facts about Obama's presidency.

It's almost like there are Nazis in the White House.

Quote:

The solution to online 'harassment' is simple: Women should log off'

A article in July argued that women are "screwing up the internet for men by invading every space we have online and ruining it with attention-seeking and a needy, demanding, touchy-feely form of modern feminism."

'Bill Kristol: Republican spoiler, renegade Jew'

A post in May described a "third party effort to block Trump's path to the White House" that Breitbart claimed was orchestrated by the prominent conservative and Trump critic Bill Kristol. The headline is one of the site's most infamous, and was featured this fall in a Democratic political ad.

'Trannies whine about hilarious Bruce Jenner billboard'

A December 2015 article criticized a campaign to take down a billboard mocking Caitlyn Jenner after she went public with her transition last year. "Transsexuals have forced a company in New Zealand to take down a billboard poking fun at Bruce Jenner and his man-parts," the article said.

'Birth control makes women unattractive and crazy'

A December 2015 article made a case against birth control and concluded, "We need the kids if we're to breed enough to keep the Muslim invaders at bay." The article was one of many blasted by critics of Breitbart.

'Suck it up buttercups: Dangerous ****** Tour returns to colleges in September'

An article in July touted tour dates for a show headlined by Breitbart tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos, a prolific Breitbart writer who was banned from Twitter this summer for violating rules against abuse.

'Hoist it high and proud: The Confederate flag proclaims a glorious heritage'

An article published in July 2015, weeks after a mass shooting at a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina, slammed critics of the Confederate flag, a symbol embraced by the gunman. "Those who initiated identity politics are attempting to obliterate the Southern identity," the author of the Breitbart piece wrote. "Every tree, every rooftop, every picket fence, every telegraph pole in the South should be festooned with the Confederate battle flag."

' "Would you rather your child had feminism or cancer?" '

A February post on the website included a video created by the Michigan Review, a University of Michigan publication, to promote a debate on campus featuring Yiannopoulos. The publication asked participants the question.

'Gay rights have made us dumber, it's time to get back in the closet'

A June 2015 article by Yiannopoulos, who is openly gay, argued in favor of "forcing gays back into the closet." "I find it depressing that my fellow **** have stopped breeding," Yiannopoulos wrote.

'Science proves it: Fat-shaming works'

A July article argued that overweight people should be shamed into losing weight. "A 20-year-old has their entire life ahead of them, and those are the people we should focus on shaming into shape," the article said.

Anne Frank Center calls on Trump to fire spokesman Spicer for ‘Holocaust denial’
http://www.miamiherald.com/news/poli...#storylink=cpy

Quote:

The Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect called on President Donald Trump to fire Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, for what the center is calling “engaging in Holocaust denial” during his press briefing on Tuesday.

While discussing Syrian President Bashar Assad, Spicer brought up former German leader Adolf Hitler.

“We didn’t use chemical weapons in World War II. You know, you had a — someone as despicable as Hitler who didn’t even sink to using chemical weapons,” Spicer said.

[Hitler ‘didn’t even sink to using chemical weapons,’ Spicer says. Wrong.]

He attempted to clarify his remarks at the podium. “He was not using gas on his own people in the same way Assad was,” Spicer said.

He later clarified after the briefing. “In no way was I trying to lessen the horrendous nature of the Holocaust. I was trying to draw a distinction of the tactic of using airplanes to drop chemical weapons on population centers. Any attack on innocent people is reprehensible and inexcusable,” Spicer said in a statement released by the White House.

The Anne Frank Center, the U.S. national organization in the worldwide group of Anne Frank organizations, quickly responded to Spicer’s comments.

“On Passover no less, Sean Spicer has engaged in Holocaust denial, the most offensive form of fake news imaginable, by denying Hitler gassed millions of Jews to death. Spicer’s statement is the most evil slur upon a group of people we have ever heard from a White House press secretary. Sean Spicer now lacks the integrity to serve as White House press secretary, and President Trump must fire him at once,” said Steven Goldstein, executive director of the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect.

This just sounds like more proof of the widely accepted fact that the average person is ignorant? You are likely to see similar numbers (likely not as bad) with some dems after a republican presidency. However, it is probably made worse because of the 24 hour media, more fake news and so many sources were extra hard on Obama.

More evidence for the theory that every accusation Trump makes actually applies to him & his side:

What actually happened last night is that a district Trump and Mike Pompeo (the election was to replace Pompeo) won by, like, 25-30 points became a narrow Republican victory of 7, when the DCCC gave ~$3k to this race because nobody even thought it was possible to win.

[ ] easy
[ ] dems spent heavily
[ ] dems predicted victory
[x] republicans might be ****ed in 2018 midterms at this rate

It's also interesting that he brags about how our technology/military strength is better than anyone else's by a factor of five, then catches himself realizing that his comment begs the question "Then why do we need to increase defense spending?"

****ing baby boomers will be the death of this country.

Democrats seem habitually focused on the wrong things. Trump admitting or implying he was naive about something is a very good thing. We already know he is not that bright or learned. So when he say things like "Who knew you can't just do X because it's more complicated than what I thought when running for president?" that is actually the one good thing he has going. That's actually rare. Like I'm the one poster in politics who has ever stood corrected. The rest of you have apparently always known everything.

That and the other thing you guys get on him about- being open toward rapprochement with Russia. Get off that. Worry about why you suck so hard that you lost to that. Hint: Russia's got NOTHING to do with it.

While I agree that Russia had nothing to do with Clinton losing to Trump, his apparent desire to view Putin as some kind of ally or a good leader is worrisome. Perhaps that's changing now, but he shouldn't trust Putin. Putin is evil.

I thought he was a billionaire who wasn't beholden to donors?

Quote:

And while the president has grown weary of directives from donors like the Mercers, he is mindful that they are among his major financial backers, and he is said to be conscious of the need to keep it that way.

Opinions of Putin are not nearly as important as the diplomatic status between countries.

Putin has now put his rep on the line, vowing retaliation in response to any further attacks in Syria. Given that Trump started out friendly to Russia, I wonder what would be going on by now if Hillary and her aggressive, "muscular" strategy against Russia had been implemented. I'm thinking operation Hillary has Balls would have been a thorough disaster.

I love how you cats still think the Prez of USA#1 runs ****. Didnt dude say when he was running for Prez of USA#1 that he didnt at all think getting involved in Syrian conflict was something he wanted to do? Didnt he say something about not squandering Americans tax dollars, as he just dropped $100M+ in missles on a slab of concrete & some empty buildings? ObamaCare repeal, the wall etc etc?

Keep arguing amongst yourselves while the plotters keep plotting...haha good stuff.

Nothing to see here you tin hatters

Hey Goofyballer, Einbert, were you guy's at? Lots of good stuff going on?

The killer of Brian Terry has been caught. You all remeber the fast and furious scandal don't you? That was Obamas great idea to give guns to the cartels and criminals in Mexico. Ya, hundreds of Mexicans and some Americans were killed with those guns. Anyway, while you guy's are posting about all the mean things President Trump say's your President is out getting things done. Trumps been in office a few months and that quick this guy is caught. Obama couldn't do it in seven years. Eric Holder was held in contempt of congress.

Another terrorist attack in Sweden. It's looking like they are gonna vote in a far right candidate..an anti immigration candidate. I would recommend you folks start opening your eyes and taking some notes.

Thank you President Trump for trying to keep our country safe with your immigration temp bans.

Trump may end up murdering as many people as Assad; particularly in Yemen. He's already had a village massacred, murdering an 8 year old American citizen, and for that he should at least spend the rest of his life in prison. But, he's trying to do much worse and may well end up going down as one of the biggest war criminals in world history.

"His attempt to destabilize the region...and root out ISIS". These clowns are so desperate they have to cherry pick parts of quotes to try to make the President look bad. This is why I usually skip over Einbert and Goofyballer spams.

How do you like your President now boy's? Lol!
