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.

Actually, identity politics has been wildly successful for him, and is the preferred political weapon of the left, too. So yes, unfortunately pitting us against each other is a calculated move made by both sides.
Successful for elections. If you truly care about this country or believe in making America great/greater this does not work.

So now that it is a Trump issue it became okay for them to disrespect the flag?
Clearly they think that it's merely disrespecting Trump.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

So now you are calling a decorated army ranger a liar. You guys are unbelievable.

Look, all I want to do on Sundays is watch football (hockey soon). The second week they had six people kneeling and it was a non-issue and no one was talking about it before/during/after the game. Then we had those stupid comments from Trump and all h*ll breaks loose. This is how he intends to make America great again by pitting us against each other?
a liar, no thats a bit much
Just that i believe his original action was his true feeling and now he "regrets" it
(Probably becuase someone like @Dan explained to him that its only a Trump thing not a ARMY/USA/BLdontM/Police thing)

as far as the rest of it, i agree with you lets watch football, like the lovely moment when marcus cooper got stripped at the one
CAN SOMEONE GET US A GIF OF THAT PLEASE
shame it didn;t cost them the game

I think that's the argument CM has been miserably failing to make.  And maybe they do think so.  But it's hard to understand how they could think it is not disrespectful to the flag to use an act of disrespecting the flag to get back at Trump.

I.e., it's facially disrespectful to not stand.  If you're intent is to protest Trump, you're protesting by disrespecting--which is disrespectful.  I hate moshols, so won't make any, but you can imagine any other people or things you respect, and whether you would do something disrespectful towards them to make a point about Trump. 

And I don't think anyone debates honestly that the person who started this intended to disrespect the flag and country. For some extra-curricular Kaepernick reading, see http://www.latimes.com/sports/nfl/la-sp-colin-kaepernick-socks-20160901-snap-htmlstory.html (wears socks showing police officers as pigs), https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2016/11/24/colin-kaepernick-grilled-by-miami-dolphins-reporter-over-fidel-castro-shirt/?utm_term=.b2351ef0de33 (wears Castro t-shirt).

What about if they are protesting police? Are they then only disrespecting the police?

How many times did I state they were not protesting the flag but Trump?.

My main point was Trump should have keep his mouth shout with those idiotic tweets. No one here could defend those so instead they tried to muddy the waters anyway they could.

Yes and that's why the majority stayed out of it. Then comes the idiotic tweets from trump attacking the league. If you believe the protest was disrespectful that is your call. What is not your call is our idiot president caused the whole issue this past week. Jerry Jones one of his biggest supporters was on one knee before the NA. His way of saying Trump you are dead wrong but we should not use the NA as a time to protest.

They knew exactly what they were doing & what would happen afterwards. I just love these owners now promising that they will all stand. They wanted to have it both ways. Too little too late. A lot of people out there want refunds.

I.e., agreeing with Trump, since that was Trump's point to begin with...

Many. You stated it. Then stated it again. Then again. And again.

Lets get one thing straight about respecting the flag. Ask any military person what you are to do. You stand facing the flag, remove all headdress and cover your heart with your right hand (civilians). So my question is how many here do that?

Let me google that but in the meantime since you are so adamant about respecting the flag can you answer the simple question?
