US Politics/2016 Election Pick Your Poison Master Thread

If you want to be fair and balanced you need to throw in Hannity. 

What would be the point of using him as an example to someone who may not consider him to be biased?

Sometimes it might sink in.

Wow great news. Mississippi run-off election Hyde-smith (R) has some confederate leanings with pictures of her w confederate hat. Just released she was caught saying she would be in the front row of a public hanging if invited to one.( her opposing candidate is black..)

ROFLMAO!!!


On a serious note this is the type of racism that needs to be called out. Instead our racist president calls her a great person.

shes the exception not the rule 😡

I’m 99% sure if it was Obama he would say anything to get more support in Congress c’mon.

How many times do I need to post this for it to sink in? This is an everyday occurrence!!!

Not all Trump supporters are racist, anti-gay or anti- Semites. If you are one of these there is a high probability you support Trump. I wonder why, not!!!

[justaregularguy]

In your estimation which party has more crazies? Republican or Democrat?

I don’t think you believe Republican is the party of the anti-gay anti-Semite etc. etc. rather Trump is the party of these and he happens to be “colluding” with the R’s these days.

Having said that he brought in some crazies into the party which quite frankly upsets me. But in all estimation he does distance himself from alt-right groups( and if he doesn’t he’s swiftly condemned by his party ) and I don’t see any Democrats condemning the radicals in their party (read : Louis Farrakhan..)

Bad exists on both sides and D’s are doing a worse job with their PR

[sguitarist18]

There might be more Rs who are anti-gay; I'd say there are more D's who are anti-semitic (sometimes dressed up a bit prettier, but anti-semitic nonetheless).

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Interesting question. More I would have to say D's. I don't have a problem with crazies per say.

Which part of my argument made you think that I feel that Acosta and maddow are more biased than hannity?

when I say crazies I mean possibly dangerous like the shooter at baseball game or the mail bomber. I refer to nazi groups and antifa groups all included with crazy. So you do care about crazy then.

So there you have it. The D’s are leading in crazy ppl. The R’s are more in control of their party than D’s are. So it’s a bigger concern.

He clearly had a different meaning for crazies, so you can't prove anything based on his response

When talking about those individuals/groups I would say R's.

...but I am used to having my response twisted instead of asking for a clarification. 

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Would you agree both Maddow and Hannity are what I call Kool-Aid drinkers? I guess Kool-Aid suppliers would be more accurate.

FTFY
That you had no problem with DJT ordering AG to go after political opponents made me think that is a possibility.

[mercaz1]

is not prosecuting weed a policy or directive that should not have been made? is that directing the AG?

[justaregularguy]

first of all antifa is a far left group -not sure why you’d call them R’s...

Second of all you just exposed yourself as not an independent bc you don’t stand by anything Republican if you define Republican as nazi groups. Why would you agree with Trump on trade (upthread you mentioned something I don’t remember what exactly but you partly agreed) when R is the nazi party??


ETA: if alt-right and nazi groups are R’s for you then who are the crazies?

[ChaimMoskowitz]

is not prosecuting weed a policy or directive that should not have been made? is that directing the AG?

I have no problem with the president saying this or that should be investigated. When he starts ordering the AG to investigate that is the issue.

[mercaz1]

at what point is a suggestion turn into an order?
