American Government Thread 2: RIP John McCain, 81

Paul Ryan is damned it does and damned if he doesn’t.

Lest you all forget the slander the left threw on him and Romney back in 2012 til now.

Surprise surprise, the left is still throwing shade at the man.

Ryan and Romney (especially Romney) are giant fuck ups who deserve the shade.

With all the shit he’s done he deserves every second of that ridicule.

The only people who despise Ryan more than liberals are Trump fans.

There’s a lesson somewhere in there about attempting bipartisanship in a highly polarised political environment, but I suspect it’d be lost in this crowd.

I read a profile on Ryan yesterday and it was interesting. Apparently he’s all about lifting up the poor and according to this community leader has visitied more poor black neighborhoods than the members of the Black caucus.

But then he sells all of that out to become anlapdog for the wealthy and corporations. So at best, Ryan is a sellout.

Which is to the point. No matter which “conservative” gets the vote. The left will use emotions to attack them. Make a demon out of them and then wonder why no one wants to work with them.

Only someone who’s accustomed to getting shit on like Trump has the backbone to deal with it.

Wonder if they use the 25th ammendment to get rid of Drumpf

People who live in America really need to stop using the word “Democracy” — especially when describing America or its system of government.

Using the word “Democracy” is a disgrace and goes against everything America stands for and was founded upon.

it even says in the Constitution that this country is a Republic.
A Republic and a Democracy are not the same thing at all.

Apparently America isn’t a Republic — according to Dan Rather, Paul Ryan, and Obama Pedobama:

I hope all you people who have been indoctrinated and brainwashed over the years, will once and for all, stop using such a horrid word to describe America, it’s form of government or voting/election process.

The origin of America’s Republican system of government came from Rome. The Founders studied all types of governments from the ancient world and they understood what a terrible system Democracy was. And thus America was founded as a Republic — THE VERY BEST SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THERE IS. NO OTHER SYSTEM IN HISTORY CAN COMPARE TO THE GREATNESS OF A REPUBLIC — ESPECIALLY NOT A DEMOCRACY.

DEMOCRACY vs. REPUBLIC
MOB RULE vs. THE RULE OF LAW.

Whats the title for that kind of country because that is what the fucking US is now.

What does Pardoning Libby have to do with Manafort?

It seems more like another digg at Comey.

Sum it up better?

Like Trump isn’t even trying to be discreet. Its like yo homie I got your back so don’t worry.

Like all this for what? I can’t one Trump supporter to give me the payoff for this crap other than like feeling like they get to support a fellow troll. Looks like that Tax Cut is doing great things for…

Side note:

Anyone know the difference between a Chickpea and a Garbanzo bean?

Trump has never had a Garbonzo Bean on his face…

The play here is that Trump clearly lets Manafort know that Trump has Manafort’s back: just say nothing, and if you get convicted I’ll pardon you. It’s super sleazy, and another reminder of why “drain the swamp” was a meaningless phrase meant to delude fools. This is why Mueller set stuff up to also be looked into by state agencies. Trump can’t pardon that.

And unlike Nixon, once Trump out of office there will be no one that would want to pardon him.

Which is why his approval rating is currently around 42-50% depending on where you go?

If Trump is going to be slammed by the MSM and the sheep that believe that tripe, why should he continue to care what you and they think? MSM and the lefts actions and opinions of every GOP candidate for the POTUS for the last what 40 years have made it so that only someone like Trump stands a chance. Congrats, you brought Trump upon yourself.

But I’m curious, who was the last GOP nominee for president that the lot of you didn’t believe was an evil person? That he was a sell out? Inherently stupid. It definitely wasn’t Trump, or Romney, McCain, Bush.

Was it Bob Dole? H.W. Bush? Do we need to go back before Nixon?

Even Nixon and Reagan did things that empowered the middle/working class. Nixon was paranoid and that wound up being his downfall, and while I wouldn’t say he was necessarily a great guy, I think his heart was in the right place.

Reagan also did a few things that were good for the middle class even if most of his policies were tailored towards the wealthy.

Trump on the other hand is pretty much an empty suit and is pretty transparent. He isn’t interested in helping anyone but himself and his buddies and has no qualms about using people to do whatever it is he wants to do.

The problem with a lot of the more recent republican presidents, Bush I notwithstanding, is that they’ve all pretty much been puppets of the people around them. Reagan, Bush II, and Trump are/were all political novices who had/have to rely on people around them who are likely pretty unscrupulous to give them the information they needed.
