Trump thread part 2 (Or anything else we want to talk about that's ridiculous in politics today)

Yeah that's so true, the closest thing I can think of where he did something good for people in general was his ownership of Miss Universe. Even then he himself really didn't do anything to make it good, he just bought into something that was already doing well. His contribution was to use his position there to walk in on half dressed contestants and make xenophobic and misogynistic comments about contestants. Then when he ran for President, he drove off his partner in the business (NBC) who cut all business ties with Trump in reaction to his comments he made about illegal Mexican immigrants who crossed the border into the US (the one about them being all rapists and murderers). NBC gave up 50% ownership of a successful annual event to which they had exclusive broadcasting rights because his comments were just too offensive to stay connected to Trump even though the Miss Universe pageant was so popular. Then Trump sold it 3 days later since he had no clue about how to keep running an International beauty pageant all by himself.
You know, t's funny whenever you point out Trump's faults or the crimes he's committed his supporters will typically dismiss what you're saying and just accuse you of Trump Derangement Syndrome saying that you're just saying that because you have an irrational hatred of Trump. Which really kind of pisses me off because I don't really hate Trump. Sure I expect him to be held accountible for his many crimes just as any of us would be if we did the same things. That doesn't mean I hate him though, that's just who Trump is, a low life criminal. You can't hate someone for being who and what they are. That would be like hating skunks simply because they spray a liquid that gives off an obnoxious odor from glands in it's backside. I don't like that they do that but I don't hate them for it, I just avoid them. No the one(s) I hate are his supporters who are too ignorant to see thru all Trump's lies or worse yet know they're lies but are willing to look past them because they stand to personally benefit from the democracy destroying agenda Trump would engage in if he ever got re-elected.
to truly know him is to loathe him. it takes time to see him for what he really is.
Yeah but he's just being the same loathsome creature he's been since the day he dodged military service because of bad feet. It's all the people that look the other way and let him get away with his BS that allows him to really have an impact worth getting mad at. If all those who support him, by ignoring his bs didn't we would likely being all saying "Trump who?"
all very true, but he was a despicable POS long before he got into politics and found some enablers/disciples to lead astray...
Mike Pants failed at being exactly the weasel out he was chosen to be and is now compelled to testify about 1-6. Pants was only there to give an appearance of honesty and legitimacy to the con man. His initial efforts to avoid testifying directly contradict what he said after he narrowly avoided the hangman's noose. Maybe he will continue his journey of destiny and perjur himself only to get caught. Roll with the con man - Hang with the con man.

i don't think so, but it is possible. i think that the GOP (not MAGA) finally sees The Chump for what he is, the worst manifestation of anti-democratic values we've ever seen in this country. i believe Pence is going to drive a stake through the heart of the vampire...my opinion of him has risen ever since Jan. 6th. i still wouldn't vote for him though...
I would like to think so but part of the reason Pants was chosen was because he is submissive and willing to put on the knee pads when is told. No doubt he is being pressured and bullied to cover Chumps but.
I would say his enablers came well before he entered politics. His biggest enabler was his father, who did like so many other Father's in that social class of people and pulled strings and called in favors to insure his son never faced any real challenges that might have molded him into a man. I'm sure it was Daddy calling n some of those favors that kept Donald out of active military duty. Which was kind of a strange move considering he sent his son off to the New York Military Academy at age 13. You would think that after graduating from a Military Academy his Father would have wanted him to actually serve in the Military as an Officer? I'm guessing though that his Fther recognized his son was a loser even back then and likely would have gotten himself killed if he actually saw combat. So he paid off someone to classify his son as $-F due to "bone spurs" even though in previous exams he was deemed as fully eligible for service. Then he got his son enrolled in a prestigious Ivy League business school but upon graduation rather then let him build up his own business empire from scratch as he should have been able to do as a Wharton Graduate but apparently he did so poorly there that his Father had o give him everything on a silver platter and then later on his lawyer Micheal Cohen had to threaten all of the schools he attended with major lawsuits if any of them released any of his acedemic records. Usually when people run for politics a good acedemic record is quite a feather in the cap and very helpful towards getting elected. I guess must have had something to hide. Of course I'm sure his Father wasn't his only enabler. Surely there was a long line of friends and associates who helped Trump skate thru life in the hopes that eventually they would be rewarded from the wealth his father left him. Which is rather amazing when you consider that Trump has a well established history of taking people for all he can and never returning favors or paying legitimate debts he owed people for that matter.
All of which is exactly why he is the loser he is today. All thru his life he never rally had to do anything to prove himself or earn a reputation he might be proud to share. His only real accomplishment of even the slightest merit was his time doing the TV show "The Apprentice" which hinged on the manufactured image of him as a successful business man. Even though what managed to make it to public record about how well he did as a business man shows that he fail year after year after year.
I'm glad he managed to evade the crazies that wanted to hang him on Jan. 6th. Not because I like him or have any respect for him but because it would have been horrific had they actually managed to hang him. Still I often wonder how things would have gone had the mob succeeded in the kind of violence towards politicians that they wanted to inflict based on their chants? Despite the desperate attempts by the GOP to paint Jan. 6th as a peaceful protest anyone who tuned in to the live coverage that day saw a bunch of crazed blood thirsty maniacs desperate to inflict even worse acts of violence on Congress then what they managed to inflict on the police trying to hold them back. Most of the GOP had the right idea to denounce everything that happened and lay the blame at Trump's feet, in the first 24 hours after it all happened. They should have stuck to their guns too because had the mob succeeded in their goals there would have been victims on both sides of the aisle. I remember vividly one scene where they were rifling thru some stuff they found where Ted Cruz sat and how they were ready to brand him a traitor because they didn't understand what they found until someone finally realized Cruz hadn't turned on them. Imagine how differently that might have played out if they had Cruz in their custody when the found whatever it was they found and thought he had betrayed them.
As far as we know, there were no congress people taken by the mob. Total craziness. Remember the scene where the girl got shot. If they did get Pence or Pelosi the outcome would have been ugly. That mentality carried through with people like the creep who bludgeoned Pepsi's husband. Keep in mind that these people believe they are working for their leader.

Worse yet they believe they are in the right and that they are patriots doing what is right for the Country. As far as that day we know that no congress people were taken, if they had been we would surely have heard about it by now. They all managed to escape unharmed due to the protection they received from the outnumbered Capital police. Like the one cop who intercepted an advancing group and managed to lead them away from the Congress people thereby giving the Congress people time to get to safety. The thing is had they been able to the rioters would have done God only knows what. I know a lot of people got upset when Hillary Clinton called Trump's supporters "A basket of deplorables" but clearly she was spot on with that accessment and the people who assaulted cops, vandalized the Captal, stole things as trophies, smeared feces on the walls and actively sought out Congress people to do bodily harm, proves it. In fact the way Clinton described them was putting it nicely. They knew their actions that day were criminal and anything but patriotic. Sure Trump whipped them up into a frenzy but that doesn't even come close to excusing them for what they did and sought to do that day.
