Inso still avoiding questions and grasping at strawmen...you're a great conversationalist and debater, of your values no less.

Trump started off coherent and on message (even though that message was mostly horrifying) for like 10 minutes and that was all he could do before going off on a rant that is just...I don't know what it is. This is just absolutely absurd.

No matter how often I think about it, it's amazing how stupid people are to buy into this. I mean they have to see that none of these promises will be fulfilled.

Still listening to it now. Drugs like candy bars. Wall gonna be built lol gtfo.

They're now reporting Trump just strolled in this morning and said 'let's have a press conference.'

I just picture Priebus and Spicer with a gun to their own heads debating suicide.

Also was Conway there? I didn't see her stroll in with Bannon, Miller, Kushner, etc.

The information was provided by — who I don’t know, Sally Yates. And I was a little surprised because I said “doesn’t sound like he did anything wrong there.” But he did something wrong with respect to the vice president and I thought that was not acceptable. As far as — as far as the actual making the call, fact I’ve watched various programs and I’ve read various articles where he was just doing his job.
That was very normal. You know, first everybody got excited because they thought he did something wrong. After they thought about it, it turned out he was just doing his job. So — and I do. And by the way, with all of that being said, I do think he’s a fine man.

Walk it back.
I haven't seen any evidence of goodness in you.

Oh no, it's not a surprise, and I remember his posting history quite well. It just bears repeating that Inso0 has given up all pretense of caring about the country.

It’s all fake news. It’s all fake news. The nice thing is, I see it starting to turn, where people are now looking at the illegal — I think it’s very important — the illegal, giving out classified information. It was — and let me just tell you, it was given out like so much.

We just had Jeff Sessions approved. Injustice, as an example (ph). So, we are looking into that very seriously. It’s a criminal act. You know what I say, when I — when I was called out on Mexico, I was shocked because all this equipment, all this incredible phone equipment — when I was called out on Mexico, I was — honestly, I was really, really surprised.

He's the vehicle by which outsiders of all stripes can get back at "the elites". That's all people want to see.
02-16-2017 , 04:55 PM
The irony is that Trump is empowering those elites far more than any President alive during my lifetime.

So my dad has been a huge trumpkin since he announced he was running. I just got a text from him.
"Well we ****ed up"

We've ordered the Department of Homeland Security and Justice to coordinate on a plan to destroy criminal cartels coming into the United States with drugs. We're becoming a drug infested nation. Drugs are becoming cheaper than candy bars. Cheaper even then Junior Mints. Do you know these Junior Mints? When your sweet tooth demands both the rich taste of dark chocolate and the cool, fresh flavor of peppermint, Junior Mints are the only answer. They are outstanding. Really the best.
02-16-2017 , 04:58 PM
Can't wait to get home and watch the whole thing. Oh to be a fly on the wall after this mess.
02-16-2017 , 04:58 PM
i want updates on those that have family that are vocal trump supporters and they go back and forth with you.. sadly (just for this instance) i live in the biggest liberal bubble so i only see one side of it.

You keep baiting me on this, and I don't really want to go through posts from a decade ago, but I was thinking about this when I was driving for my lunch meeting today. Someone else posted something about it earlier ITT and I ignored it.

If you linked a post somewhere, I guess I'll go back and try to justify it if necessary, but I wonder if you guys are just totally off base on where those comments came from. The whole 50+ ton animal breathing out of nostrils the size of a horse was part of a discussion I had with someone like 10 years ago regarding atmospherics in a pre-flood world.

You can think I'm bat**** crazy for believing things written in the bible, but I'm not denying the existence of dinosaurs, if that's what you're implying. I realize that in the minds of most here, there's no meaningful distinction. But the nostril thing is just such a weird line of attack I figured I'd finally acknowledge your bait and ask wtf your issue is.

At some point, someone linked me a study by dudes at the University of Manchester, but it was less a study and more of just a theory to try and make sense of the fact that it would've been impossible for something that large to function if the atmosphere were similar to what we've known. It boiled down to, "They're birds, and birds are super good at breathing efficiently." It was pretty underwhelming.

Still, I tend not to discuss YEC related things with people I know have no interest in it. It's been a very, very long time since I've bothered with an online thread on the topic. I frankly don't care enough about it to invest the time. But I do believe in a Creator, if that's what you just want me to admit.

Though, I think there's plenty of LOLINSO to go around, so feel free to PM me if you want to goad me further on believing in God. No need to clutter up a Trump thread.

Creationists believe most dinosaurs died during the great flood, but Noah brought them on his ark so they were alive AFTER it. They were just like any other animal.

In case you missed it, that means there were humans and dinosaurs living together at the same time.

So wait he isn't annoyed with the treason. He is annoyed with how he revealed the treason to Mike Pence.

What the hell is he even talking about with Flynn? The man can't stay on topic.

This made me laugh and then scared.

I didn't get to see the press conference so reading this I can't even decide if this might have actually happened.

My opinion of him is suffering tremendously because of his silence (especially considering he said he would speak up if necessary).
one thing i know for certain is that obama was smart enough to know exactly to whom he was handing over the white house. therefore part of me has an optimistic sliver of hope that he put in some checks behind the scenes before leaving office to prevent this administration from replacing democracy. it is however a small hope.

He ran as a clown. We knew he was a clown. You are all still seemingly surprised that he is acting like a clown.

I wish he'd STFU as well, because it is pretty embarrassing to have my POTUS talking about approval ratings and crowd sizes, but in the meantime, the other side effects are definitely working for me. Trump may be a clown, but he'll sign on the dotted line for pro-conservative outcomes, and that's what counts.
why do you think this is a partisan issue? you do realize what is happening here, right?
02-16-2017 , 05:11 PM
anyone got a small video with the CBC thing? or a timestamp
02-16-2017 , 05:12 PM
I hate to think Obama's biopic will be titled "The Last President".

According to Mike Lisenbery, one of the organizers of the Indivisible group, the group visiting Rohrabacher’s office was predominantly composed of older retired women. This account is borne out in photographs of the group. The video shows that there were about 10 people in the hallway.

In his press release, however, Rohrabacher paints the incident as malicious and characterizes the activists as an unruly mob of thugs.

“I am outraged beyond words that protesters who mobbed my Huntington Beach office violently knocked down my faithful district director, Kathleen Staunton, causing her to be hospitalized,” Rohrabacher is quoted by saying.

“Though the protesters think of themselves as idealists, they engaged in political thuggery, pure and simple. These people do not want, as they’ve claimed, to hold a town hall meeting with me. These are unruly activists on whom the lessons of civility and democratic participation have been lost,” he continues. “These holier-than-thou obstructionists will be held responsible for this outrageous assault. They are exposing themselves for what they are — enemies of American self-government and democracy.”
