this aint unstuck. obv they should get rid of the bot but they love yelling at it.

the Trumpers here need to see what dear leader is posting. kinda like when you rub your dogs nose in the pee or poop or trash that they dropped in the middle of the floor.

This is why it is harmful to not have Trumpbot in this forum:



<...snipping 4 other tweets about MAIL IN VOTING FRAUD RIGGED ELECTION>



You guys are very shielded from how insane his presidency is, simply by virtue of not really knowing what he tweets every day. He has been actively building the "preventing voter fraud" option. He says the quiet part out loud: if everyone can vote, Republicans lose!
I think there's a certain ignorance involved in discussing Trump so much without ever really reading his own messages to the American people (which most people here probably do not! Outside of when he makes a particularly newsworthy "oh my god, he said what???" tweet, anyway). He's happy to tell us, every day, who he is and what he cares about; some people on this forum still do not hear him, and are essentially arguing with their fingers in their ears.

Trumpbot is spammy, and annoys some people, which posters have admitted is by design.

However postcount shows 26 posts, just a bit over 1 post per 100, which is not too terrible. Also, if it is annoying people, they can just put the bot on ignore?

So if most of the Trump thread regs want it back on I would lean towards turning it on and advising those whom it annoys to put it on ignore.
Ignore Feature is my new friend.

My quality of life has been significantly improved since I started "liberally" (so to speak) putting people who annoy me on Ignore.

This is not really directed at you in particular, but your post was a handy example. There has been a fair bit of this kind of posting around here recently. I know these are heated political times, but still.

Go after the message, the argument, the ism or whatnot, but let's all cool it on the characterizations.

we live in a world where words matter more than action

Trump has done more for America than Obama ever did but he is hated because he speaks his mind and is white

I guess that is the power of the media

The powers that be hated Trump from day 1 for changing the status quo and have been undermining his position since the start

If trump had the media favour that Obama had he would be seen as one of the best Presidents as well

sad times

Clowns is pretty mild. You should see what i get called sometimes. I take your point though.

By the way if "clowns" isn't allowed how about "racist"? That gets thrown at posters quite a lot around here. I would contend that "racist" is far more offensive than "clowns".

if you think someone is evil then you will find evil in his every action

that's the issue ain't it

two people can look at the same thing/issue/post and see competently different things

at the end of the day you have half the country who says every thing he does is bad and the other half who does not see it that way

can 50% of the country be completely wrong? I'm not that arrogant to assume that

ot : I would love for someone to post what Obama did for America beside read speeches that divided the country. His opening speech was how America isn't racist because he is the president ,how black people should stop abusing each about "whitespeech" and fatherhood etc. Then he closed on Trayvon could be his son and that all cops are evil.

I have been trying to make a distinction between calling an argument racist, and calling a poster racist. A thin line, but it is there. It's an uphill battle though, trying to keep up with all the threads.

If everyone could just keep the veneer of civility on, I think it might go a long way towards this sub not getting nuked from orbit like it probably deserves.

That's my personal sheeple (sheep?) test: if you agree with every single party line position, either side, you're probably not doing a whole lot of independent thinking.

If this is your takeaway from the last 4 years, then, well, I'm not sure how to respond to you while maintaining a veneer of civility.

LOL. Guy who condescendingly attacks everything liberals do: "I'm not so arrogant as to assume half the country could be wrong about something"

Yes you are, you just aren't smart enough to realize it

@Mods: please note Joe's standard MO. He will make a claim (in this case a minor one), then ignore requests for evidence for, or rebuttals to that claim. He will then repeat the same unsubstantiated claim in future, even if it has been debunked. In fact, he has made this very claim several times in the past, never providing any evidence for it. This is why people call Joe a liar and a troll.

He might claim he has me on ignore, but that can be easily disproved as he responded to me yesterday in the Trump thread before he deleted it.

can you say what he has done to make you so mad besides "he said some mean things"?

he has done basically the same thing any other president has done and a bit more

besides that if he was as bad as you say then why do so many Americans support him? do you think half the country is racist?

Trump's press conference the other day, I couldn't help but respect his manner. Sure, he didn't say much, but he was composed and noticeably in a good space lol for him. He got ahold of some mood stabilizers os

And some of the questions were just provocative, re-quivered arrows, serving no purpose.

He can say person, woman, man, camera, tv. That alone makes him more coherent than joe. Joe should have to complete this 30 or 35 question test to qualify for the debates. Extra points if he gets the words in order!

If you are unable to answer these questions yourself, you clearly haven't been paying attention. Hint: it's been discussed in this very forum at length for at least 4 years.

1). Half the country does not support him, it's 35%.
2). Yes, at least 35% of Americans are racists, total morons, or both. I don't think this is a particularly controversial statement that reasonable people would dispute.
