I like fighting as much as the next guy. (Yes debating is still technically fighting. No matter how you spin it.)
But the thing about debates its populist much like democracy.
Where at the end of the day it isnt even about what the value of your words meant but more so on how you presented it with a “Gotcha!” mentality. When put in that perspective it sounds more masturbatory then anything else.
About being partisan. I like the simple quote. "Tolerance is the virtue of a man without convictions."
Thats why I’m bias against liberals. People I’ve known personally that sided with the liberal mentality has always been a let down or unreliable. Where as the people that openly mock or condemn me for my race would end up respecting my stanch behaviour and work ethnics after some time. Crying racism is nothing more then a crutch to those who refuse to adapt or improve, imho.
Cant tell liberals about a slippery slop. It dont real.
Only elitist mentality I can think of are upper class citizen pushing for “inequalities” and “injustices” being in there nice cozy cities/neighbourhoods. Never once thinking about rural citizens or jobs that are “beneath them” cause that nice illegal works hard at a job no one else wants to. :]
Other then cuckseratives and zionist pushing for more war on behalf of our greatest ally I dont think the 1% are a big concern.
I like the idea of protesting, but protesting in the name of shutting down freedom of speech, regardless of the person speaking, is akin to abandoning our principles as Americans.
If we can’t uphold our values in the worst of times, then we don’t deserve them in the best of times. Regardless of my personal feelings about Trump or his supporters, shutting down their rallies just because we disagree is something I can’t condone, and I hope that fellow liberals will also convince the regressive left to put and end to their bullshit because all it’s doing is adding fuel to the fire and furthering Trump’s evolution of his dog and pony show to be a serious threat.
If the republicans lose this election, it will be another demonstration of the party’s biggest hurdle: itself. Every candidate has to swear up and down to love God, hate abortion, and preserve the institution of marriage as we’ve known it if they want to win the nomination.
They want the candidate that independents and moderates are least likely to support. As has been said in here, people like Rubio and Kasich are more electable than candidates like Cruz. Primary voters are banking on Trump Mania being enough to win an election. I don’t know if it will be. Trump is the kind of candidate that will drive people to vote against him from a neutral place. Amusingly, Clinton is too.
The two most hated people in the country stand to get the nominations from their respective parties. It’s interesting how the Democrat party wants Hillary and the GOP doesn’t want Trump, though.
The only reason people are buying into Shillary’s brand is because her last name is Clinton. It’s why the black vote in the South was almost unanimous in giving her the vote; they can’t see past Bill Clinton’s legacy and how he actually gave somewhat of a shit about minorities. Even Dave Chappelle said that Bill was a good man to black folks. Meanwhile, despite Bernie’s excellent track record with civil rights and defending minority groups, most average voters are so ignorant to the point where they don’t even know who the fuck he is, let alone what he actually stands for. Old media does nothing to help his campaign either, and the only reason he gets any press time at all is because he’s forcing his way into the limelight. Even then, the media has a strict bias against him because the establishment has bought out the main voice of the people and put it in a deadly vice grip of ignorance.
Anyone with eyes can see past Clinton’s bullshit though, and when more and more people notice that she only wants to be president so she can be president instead of actually giving a shit about the American people, the easier it’ll be to sway the public to Bernie’s side more, and then as I said, if he wins the primary he wins the election.
(cracks knuckles) Incoming quadruple post. ALSO, please please please please for the love of god, if you or anyone else is going to reply to me, be thorough. I’m repeating myself here i feel like.
They didnt shut down the event through force. Stop fear mongering. As we know today, cpd didnt even tell him there was a threat or valid reason to shut down his rally. Even in hindsight now, it really wasnt that big of a deal. People making this shit out to be ferguson riots level or some shit when it wasnt.
Ive seen a video or two of some rowdy people, but there is no context to it. People make it seem like the arena erupted into chaos, and blood was shed all over. lol
I disagree, and i will likely reiterate this point again. Trump is fairly unique in his politics right now. No other human being that has ran for presidency in this country (well that might be an overstatement) has been this divisive on religion and race.** Certainly 100 percent no politician in the 21st century has been so rude to women, minorities, and another persons religion like trump has. Nor have they encouraged violence at their rallies. Thats fascist nonsense rearing its ugly head. **
You think trump is fit for presidency? Are you fine being complacent with people like him being the leader of your country? A lot of other countries allowed that too, and history has already painted that picture for us of what happened. While i can be calm about trump possibly being the president, due to my cynicism of mankind. I can fully understand how people are riled up about this guy. A few days ago they just saw a trump supporter elbow a man on his way out of the rally, and they tackled him instead of the assaulter.
**Im not sure why people are pretending trump has been running as a good honest guy with flaws, who isnt for the political games, and not a sexist, prejudice, xenophobic, violence inciting, ignorant asshole who will gladly worsen foreign relations with everyone to protect america from the imaginary war we are fighting on our homeland right now with mexicans, muslims, liberals, and the politically correct.
Next your going to tell me the KKK should continue to be allowed their free hate speech publicly, even though its likely borderline illegal, and not protected by the first amendment. **
Trump has game like I’ve never seen. The way he handles passive aggressive reporters is just awesome.
Anti-trump people: you got nothing to worry about. According to you, trump has no social skills, he’s racist, sexist, he eats babies. There just isn’t any way he will trip and fall into presidency. So far he’s leading but that’s because the stars are aligning for him. Y’all got nothing to worry about lol.
Don’t worry, people are sensible enough to vote for Hilldawg. We will have open borders and your EBT cards shall always sustain the weak and vulnerable.
I disagree. Trumps freedom of speech borders on hate speech, and the first amendment does not protect that. Even though americans constantly let hate groups fly proudly here when theyre likely participating in illegal behavior. America is so prejudice and stupid though, its no wonder the kkk and the westboro baptist church are allowed to do what they do.
Trump isnt just someone people disagree with for general reasons. Hes the guy who railroaded a group of you black men in the NY times as rapist, and then over a decade later when we find out it wasnt true, he doesnt apologize for his mistake and behavior. He basically still insinuates they were bad guys, and it is what it is. He couldve shut the fuck up and said nothing, but he didnt. He wanted to make sure people knew his unsympathetic thoughts on those men who lost their greatest years of life.
Trump is the guy who tells megyan kelly shes on her period, that most illegal mexicans are rapist, that his daughter is dateable and hot, that muslims need to be temporarily banned (How would you do that. By skin color? lol), that all schools should NOT be gun free zones, that his supporters should attack anyone that doesnt think like them. The list goes on!!
**Trump is literally the antithesis of what an american president, and an american in general should be. There should be a lot of outrage over him. Considering this countries complicated history. The last thing we want is for a billionaire, out of touch, fear mongering piece of shit to make his way to the position of the president of the united states. **
Hillary Clinton would be an excellent conservative president. Anybody in here that is actually a republican: What are your gripes against Clinton? She literally is everything I wouldn’t want in a democratic president.
Jamie foxx did too in his 2002 standup. That set was fucking legendary. He doesnt get enough credit as a standup comedian. Maybe because he didnt write it. I dont know if he did or didnt. If you youtube jamie foxx bill clinton, it should come up. His impression of bill and george bush was hilarious.
