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.

I'm in Israel at the moment. Watching all the marching today. Quite a crazy scene. Amazing how many people came out.
...and they were peaceful.

Wasn't authentic, you think?  :)

Didn't feel authentic, as aygart correctly understood.

I understand you what you said but my point was can it be because it wasn't authentic?

I think it was authentic for the most part, minus the 100% eradication of Islamic terrorists exaggeration.

Someone pointed out in his speech he didn't say "I' at all. How quickly that has changed. All it is about today is "I". He goes to the CIA (great move on his part) standing in front of the memorial wall and complains about the crowd size reports. The press secretary calls a press conference (no questions could be asked) and again complains about the crowd size reports. The were both wrong and the pictures prove it. How can someone with such thin skin and big ego expect to accomplish anything? Here is how bad it is. FOX ripped him on both of these events.

Not saying I was surprised but it was interesting to see FOX and CNN's take on the speech (complete opposite). Do you think Trump knows or cares about the history behind the term "America First"?

There wasn't supposed to be any press conferences until Monday so it's not a big deal that he didn't accept questions today.

Didn't get to see much coverage due to the Sabbath, and not sure about history of America First, but I'm guessing from you bringing it up that it is/was used by the KKK? In context of his entire MAGA campaign, and in his speech when he's also saying that skin color doesn't matter I know it doesn't bother me.

Man did that one fly over your head. You are correct their wasn't a scheduled press conference until Monday. When this one was called at the spur of the moment on the weekend it means some important breaking news. I guess his ego is important. Also did you know the National park district had side by side pictures from 2009 and 2017? There were instructed to take them down. Who do you think gave that order?

What if it was associated with anti-Semitism? Would that bother you? Google is your friend.

Apparently the America First org was against going to war in Germany, which is not that controversial. I've seen anti-semitism and if that's anti-semitism that's as toned down as it gets. Yeh, I would definitely want America to fight the war, but you know, Americans as a whole didn't care. Why would they want literally hundreds of thousands of soldiers to die to save Jews or to save anyone? America didn't go to war until they were attacked. What really bothered me about America's involvement in WW2 was the fact that they didn't accept enough refugees, and they turned back a ship so everyone could die.

The move was marred by many anti-Semites. One of there biggest supporters was Charles Lindbergh.

While I know there were anti-semites involved (not surprising), I think that an American who never met a Jew or had an opinion about Jews would probably be against going to war. The movement also reflected how the President at the time felt...
At the end of the day, us Jews know that Trump isn't anti-semitic, so all we're debating is whether it sounds wrong or not.

Trump should realize that his supporters are the ones in this country who work during the day and he can't expect a crowd like the one in 2009.
I'm an optimist; but only because life isn't going to give me any other good choices.

Not a debate as I just asking does he know or care about the term "America First". By contrast John McCain had the same saying but used "Country First". I don't think that was by accident.

So are very many totally benign movements as well as just about every denomination of every religion including Judaism itself.
