    Because I wanted serious change. And to a point, I got it. Unfortunately, we became Israel’s warmongering lapdog and either got promises 25% fulfilled, or forgotten about entirely. Why are you insulting me?

        His political platform is more that of a late 80s early 90s Dem. Far less the ist-phobe German National Socialist you claim.

          Do you mean the 1880s? Nothing about his platform has ever been anything like the postwar Dems.

            We haven’t known each other long enough for you to make such a valuation. Give it some time and I am willing to let you say such things.

              Dog whistles for his base, the potus, and his supporters being ok with white nationalism. Hence the jan6 insurrection

                With white nationalism? Or with an understanding that Islam has some pretty serious human rights work to deal with?

                    You act as though they are minor issues. And I don’t believe it was a blanket ban. It was on specific connections to terrorist orgs. The media turned it into a blanket ban.

      I just don’t understand how any person could vote for him more than once. It wasn’t a secret that he is totally incompetent, spiteful and extremely stupid after just a couple days of him being in charge the first time. His first term was a clown show where he continuously fired his staff. If you somehow think he’s going too far only now, then frankly it says a lot about you and your lack of sense, empathy and political literacy.

      His values have constantly shown that he is sexist, racist, greedy, slovenly and generally hateful. If you have voted for him three times, frankly, you probably are those things as well.

        Because I am not a Democrat, nor a leftist in any way. I do not stand for their ridiculous shit the same way I do not stand for what Trump is now doing. Believe it or not, people can have different views from you. The fact you don’t understand that says a lot more about your intelligence than my own. Relax, bud.

          I honestly wonder in what way you think the Democrats are worse than the Republicans. Even before Trump turned the Republicans into a clown show, it was the party of greed, selfishness and corruption. Bush lied to start a war with Iraq. Reagan destroyed the middle-class because rich people needed to get richer. They’ve supported wars for oil, lies about the environment, sinking people deeper into debt.

          I completely agree that the Democrats are not always great, but at their worst, they’re almost as bad as the Republicans. Never worse. Everything bad they’ve done, the Republicans have done worse.

          Remember everyone. He doesn’t believe in everyone having affordable access to healthcare. He doesn’t believe in free or subsidized education. He doesn’t believe in fair wages. He doesn’t believe in affordable housing for all. He doesn’t believe in human rights.

          That’s all “ridiculous shit”. You’re a loser dude.

          Genuinely curious what the ridiculous shit is in your eyes. I generally see most people want the same end goals (better lives for all/most) and the nuances are just in the execution.

            Pretty much everything now. I am NOT a fan of Israel, first off. Not to mention he didn’t follow through with any of the things he started. I personally do not like this country being absolutely flooded with illegal immigrants and all of our jobs being swooped up by underpaid H1Bs, etc. My area with the largest industrial park in the whole country is a total nightmare now. I don’t really care if you feel a moral obligation to think the opposite, so don’t bother. I will be avoiding this sub now. It’s just as violently retarded as Reddit’s r/politics. Got it blocked now. See ya!

              Took a while, but we finally found why they voted for trump 3 times. Racism.

              And it is this sentiment that will keep you voting for shysters and con-men and voting against your own best interest.

              Yeah - shit libs make everything shitty.

              Their “everything is a nail because I have a hammer” approach to everything stops all conversation.

      Fuck your feelings. You remember that? You’ve thrown in with a cult that has been singly focused on being as destructive and as obnoxious as humanly possible for over a decade, and now you’re getting your feelings hurt? Did you actually believe that Donald “losers and suckers, I prefer people who didnt get captured” Trump was anti-war? Then you are, or at least were, a moron.
