Just a reminder, likely-future Minority leader of the House Kevin McCarthy said, prior to being sworn to secrecy by Paul Ryan in a private meeting of House republicans about 3 years ago, "There are two people, I think, Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump"
It won’t matter. No one on the right actually holds the belief that “good guys with guns” will actually suppress gun violence or stop active shooters more than the harm that comes from the current gun laws. It just sounds plausible enough to stupid people and has been normalized to be an acceptable retort to the question of why a regular citizen would need/want to carry a gun.
I single worst thing liberals can do is engage the right in good faith.
It's all bull****. Every last word. They don't actually believe in supply side economics. They don't actually disbelieve global warming. They don't actually believe white males are being persecuted with false rape accusations. They don't believe anything they say on guns. They don't think voter fraud is a thing. It is all bull****, all the time.
Remember when a law abiding gun owner told a cop during a traffic stop that he had a firearm on him as well as a license to own and carry it and was promptly shot with his wife and kid in the car? Then remember how the NRA said exactly dick all because the dude (Philando Castile) was black?
NEW: John Bolton’s No. 2, Mira Ricardel, was escorted from the White House moments ago, an administration officials tell @WSJ. Ricardel was standing just a few feet from President Trump earlier this afternoon.
apparently she got into a tiff with Melania while on their trip to Africa, including fighting over seating on the plane, so got forced out by her lolol
but between FLOTUS and some John Bolton lackey, my take is: "bad ppl on both sides ... i don't even care, do u?"
a much better platform would be: tax cuts for the richest ppl itw, guns, racism, zero public services, apocalyptic environmental policies, and a foreign policy that is just a sheet of paper with "yolo" scribbled in red crayon
But this is what I came here to post. Are there any conservatives left in this thread (who presumably would also be sprots fans)?
How the hell can you live in the US and be this obtuse? I actually think Republican politicians might be aliens - like 3rd Rock from the Sun. Would explain soooo much.
This is why they made lil Marco recite the same line a dozen times in the debates until Christie wrecked him. Hit a 3 point kick, nice phrase. Stay in your lane, Marco
On Wednesday the US president once again stirred the pot. “The Republicans don’t win and that’s because of potentially illegal votes,” Trump told the conservative Daily Caller website. “When people get in line that have absolutely no right to vote and they go around in circles. Sometimes they go to their car, put on a different hat, put on a different shirt, come in and vote again. Nobody takes anything. It’s really a disgrace what’s going on.”
He also called for new national ID laws with a bizarre assertion: “If you buy a box of cereal – you have a voter ID.”
He might as well go up there, sit cross-legged and piss into his mouth like the chimps at the zoo. It's total nonsense. And he can't handle being questioned about it or he throws a tantrum ahhh **** this let's NBA
