you may be missing my point. Conservatives have not recently been, if they ever have been, in power here. It's not good practice to allow reactionaries to pretend they're conservatives just because they call themselves that.

It's hysterical.

The guy has zero clue what he is talking about. He's like an old man yelling at a cloud. He is completely detached and out of touch from reality.


And yet you voted for him.



good one

I'm in favor of this plan to trot Spicer out to drumpfsplain every day for about 2 hours until he eventually bursts into flames. The White House is being managed by Dusty Baker

Hmm. Pretty sure I was only unfurling a scenario in which the labor-drumpf lovefest Brantt imagines might not turn out as he/drumpf/others might be anticipating. Sorry you misunderstood.

Wonder if Trump will keep repeating the 3-5MM illegal voters for the next few years so he can use this alternative fact to postpone indefinitely the 2020 election.

now you're getting it

President Mr Trump wrote:We can't let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!
11:29 PM - 6 Nov 2012

Lets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice! The world is laughing at us.
11:30 PM - 6 Nov 2012

This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!
11:33 PM - 6 Nov 2012

Our country is now in serious and unprecedented trouble...like never before.
11:39 PM - 6 Nov 2012

Hopefully the House of Representatives can hold our country together for four more years...stay strong and never give up!
11:47 PM - 6 Nov 2012

House of Representatives shouldn't give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare.
11:54 PM - 6 Nov 2012

He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!

November 7, 2012

The phoney electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation. The loser one!

"3-5 million illegal votes?! What evidence do you have for that?"

"The results! She had about 3 million more than me so they must have been illegal voters. No, wait, that would make us even. Make it 5 million. No, ten. Hillary only came close because she had 20 million illegal votes for her."

the saddest part is he needs zero evidence to make millions of idiots believe it.

there's video of the Kenyan usurper voting, so that's proof of one illegal vote right there.

so the question becomes, is this just Trump being a giant moron, or does it have nefarious purposes like greater voter suppression? Feel like that's the dynamic with him a lot, actually.

It's sad because that truly what it is. Just look at the electoral college debate.

Argument: Let's make all votes count equally!
Counter: But then my team doesn't win

Any arguments about small states being ignored in popular vote are bullshit anyway because they're even more ignored in electoral college. Trump's key swing state victories were all top ten in population.

To be frank, just from having conservative family members who have hated Hillary for years, it does seem like they think she is a moron. Yet they also seem to think she's a maniacal genius. They don't seem to understand that it needs to be one or the other, but that's the way hate works.
