Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

Um... are you touting his bankruptcy record as a positive?

I'm not touting anything. But bankruptcy is all about RENEGOTIATING deals. I think if he came out standing on firm ground after bankruptcy he must know something about renegotiating deals.

Remember. None of this really matters one bit. For me personally, being registered to vote in NY, my vote will not count, so I'm not planning on wasting time on election day. And for anyone voting in a state where their vote might count: nothing a candidate says really matters. They have very limited power to implement anything they promise. The only real power (and lasting power - which is why HRC is so scary) is SCOTUS nominations.

We know that the D's and HRC are Bolsheviks. We know Bader-Ginsburg is a Bolshevik apparatus. Do we want any more of those on the SCOTUS?

Donald Trump calls Hillary Clinton "Hillary Rotten Clinton" on CNN.

Now trending on Twitter.
He can be so immature but he is so good!
The unknown with him is scary but I love his style.

Wait, even if every elected official disagrees with him - even his supporters, like Mitch McConnel who called his NATO comments "a rookie mistake" (Never mind the "rookie" is running for most powerful person in the world) - it is just scare tactics?

Yes, harping on it is scare tactics. Either it's a good idea to renegotiate and he will - or it's not, and he won't be able to.

Quote
Disregarding NATO is an idea he floated without being privy to that presidential knowledge.

That was intended to be my point - when running for office it's easy to say what you will do, but once the light of office begins to shine perspectives are almost always changed.

Quote
And personally I believe there is no evidence that Trump would be able to negotiate a good deal.

That's fine for you to believe otherwise, but I think it's your personal bias that stops you from being willing to admit that Trump has the confidence and ability to negotiate well, even if you think nothing else good about him.
I'm an optimist; but only because life isn't going to give me any other good choices.

Is Obamacare an exception to your generalization or does it fit in?

It most definitely fits in. That was only able to pass because of the D supermajority in congress.

I don't believe the D's had a supermajority, rather an absolute majority.

They also acted like true bolsheviks where the ends justify all means, promising all kinds of things to senators with special interests, lying about the law, etc etc.

I would love to get a constitutional amendment that all members of Congress need to pass an exam about the content of a bill prior to being allowed to vote on it. Even if we set the bar at a low mark of 65 or maybe even 60, I think our democracy will fare much better.

They had a supermajority for the original version of the bill until Scott Brown was elected to replace Ted Kennedy.
