Thread: The Trump Presidency

    The very picture of an independent! Get it together, Dole.
    Really? News to me. Show me or stop making shit up.

  2. Just for reference, the only place I post anything political is Facebook and I make an effort not to because of how quickly political discord turns into nasty conversations. Here is every post/topic (remotely political, not family stuff) that I've made since the Covid-19 outbreak:

    February 5th: "How do you spell Congress? P-A-R-T-I-S-A-N"

    March 12th: A graph on the virus outbreak

    March 12th: NHL cancelled. NBA cancelled. ATP/WTA cancelled. NCAA cancelled. With all of these televised sports being cancelled some of us are going to have reintroduce ourselves to our wives.

    March 13th: True story: 20ish years ago I got out of manufacturing because China could produce a finished product cheaper than I could even buy the raw material for. I said it then: sooner or later the fact that we aren’t producing enough goods here will bite us in the ass. Here we are.

    March 14th: Nice to know that all it takes for the Democrats and Republicans to work together is a global pandemic and/or the end of the world. Healthcare should be fixed in no time.

    March 16th: You have to wonder what’s going to do more damage - this virus or the cratered economy that we’re creating.

    March 16th: Bloomberg's wasted 500 million sure could have helped A LOT of small businesses that are going to be in trouble moving forward. Be nice if he, and other billionaires, got together and created a fund for all of the restaurants, etc... that are going to suffer immeasurably over the next few months.

    March 20th: Keep your fingers crossed that heat & humidity will kill this thing. Looks like early summer for us in Florida.

    Registered: No party affiliation
    Didn't vote for Trump or Hillary
    Fiscal conservative, social liberal - believe in universal healthcare, abortion rights, the 2nd amendment, borders, etc... About as independent as you can get.

    The only person shitting here is you, Bacon, right out of your mouth.

  3. I don't really care which team anyone supports. Hating on each other over politics is exactly what the powers that be want. Be better than that. Neither side is on yours.

    It's all right to have disparate views of issues that don't, and might never, line up. It's not okay to wish someone would die of some horrible disease because you don't like them or those views. That's a whole another level of hate.

    The problem is the people can't seem to discuss different views of subjects without it evolving into a rhetoric driven over the top insult fest. It would be far more productive to express your views, have them be heard and understood, and then be willing to listen to the other side's views and offer the same respect. We might actually get something done in this country instead of this hyper partisan crap that doesn't do anyone, least of all us, the "little people", any good.

  5. I voted for Trump. I don't consider myself to be a dimwit. I'm actually fairly well respected as a person. I work in a place with mainly Democrats in a city that's mainly made up of Democrats, doing work that helps people. And no one's ever called me a dimwit to my face.

    It's exceedingly easy to talk shit and demonize others on the Internet.

  6. Fortunately, it's just as easy to ignore it.
    I honestly don't know who I would have voted for if I were an American. I think Trump is an ignorant douche, but he may still have been the lesser of two evils. We'll never know what sort of sinister shit Clinton would have gotten up to if she'd been elected, and the independent candidates were not particularly compelling, to say the least.

    Social media has set actual socializing back decades if not centuries. "Keyboard muscles"

  8. I agree, but it was only an accelerant for what cable news and reality TV started - a sensational disregard for reason.

    You're SO right, Bacon! Silly me, judging a man by his actions and all.

    Aaaannnnd that's what I (and everyone else) am basing my opinion on.

    Hey, don't take it so personally, sugar. In case you didn't notice, I was responding to what haoh said.

    I assure you, I would say it to anyone's face.
