Rufus>> Well, some of my friends on the Left have been telling me for years that the police are Nazis. And now I hear that Trump is literally Hitler. And yesterday my 10-year-old son asked me why Trump was trying to kick everyone who isn't Christian out of the country. He gets out more than I do. So I think he's got a better drop on what's going on in the streets. So maybe the answer to the query is "Sooner than you think." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But some of his tactics are getting a tad scary. And...it's not just him. A lot of people are moving....Alt-Right...and I'm not sure they understand the consequences. Now I don't think being the left of Marx is the answer either. But I honestly think if left unchecked...Trumpy is gonna bury us all.

The fact that some of our fellow Americans are going along with it is truly disappointing. Imo. Why do you say a lot of people are moving alt-right? I was thinking that they have a solid base but are not growing in popularity. I would hate to be wrong on that one but wouldn't be surprised.

Now our Right calls the Left Communists and our Left calls the Right fascists. To whom do we turn? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawgGoneIt Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 The fake news schtick is pretty old already. So yeah, attacking the media for reporting on what you're doing started out being a tad scary, but now it's more hilarious, because it's just that laughable. The scariest part coming from this guy is now the screaming that the senate should change the filibuster rule etc. No! It will be time to storm the castle at that point imo.

thc6795 Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 What are you guys going to storm the castle with? Sticks and rocks? Remember your party is against owning guns. Or automatic weapons. Good luck with that massacre. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have friends out in the sticks of Idaho and other such places who are well right of the Right and who have been stockpiling weapons for years. I'll be "good" when the time comes.

The senate was designed to work like it is working. It's the idiots up there that are failing to work it. Like a man mentioned on one of the Sunday political shows this morning... Healthcare for instance... There's a majority that wants to see something done for the good of us all. The problem for Trump and McConnell is it isn't a majority of the majority. If those asswipes will work together and leave the fringe idiots to themselves, we'd have some positive and lasting reform on the issue. Instead the parties are letting the fringe folks control the agenda. It's bullshit and it's been going on quite long enough. It's far past time for them to come together and make the government work again. Trump screaming on twitter for the majority to scrap how the senate works is not helpful. Not helpful. Not in the least bit. Instead of a strong leader that is the best negotiator ever, we get a tween female tweeter. Yep, we got Twitler! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as we see an elected official refusing to" compromise on everything", it's time to switch elected officials. To compromise on everthing would be intolerable. To compromise on nothing should be grounds for the trash heap. To steal from BillyBob above, only a lefty communist or a right fascist believes Health Care is a black and white issue in America. Make know misstake, it's all GRAY. The same with gun control issues...GRAY. Compromises are a must ! On the other hand, gays in the military...BLACK and WHITE. Interpret the Constition, except the court results. If not, protest, oust unfavorable pols, create new laws....the American way. As for Trump and the influence the Generals around him might yield, sure it's a little unsettling. The founding fathers, Madison in particular, would take notice. But if any administration, in memory, needed discipline it's Trump's. Hopefully they bring maturity to the west wing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the confirmation bias that Nooner was on about so much that turns people off to Jesus. The Jesus followers seem to think that Jesus works for them when it was meant to be the other way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
