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!

Nov 8 : Time to edit the wiki. Biggest upset in American History according to Michael Isikoff.

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 not getting what your trying to do here. Most Americans automatically vote for 1 party ( If I'm not mistaking the number is either 60% or 80% between the 2 parties )
If we are going to separate them into 3 groups the I's would be the biggest group.
Why do you think that you are so different that some others here? ( Unless my suspicion is correct about T****g...)
Different in what way? The way we think in general, politics, religion, race, economics or a million other things?

Part of being the same as everyone else is to think you are different from everyone else just like everyone else does.

In fact, I would even say that based on all the current evidence, it's not even possible to make an honest case for impeachment.
@CountValentine , based on your response I'm gonna assume the honest case for impeachment is something along the lines of "Half the country disagrees with you & stop drinking the kool aid?"

The bottom line is if I choose to be an impartial juror I can. Most here can't.

You are living in a bubble and can't see the other side. Throw out the nutcases on both sides. The ones in the middle are split over this. It is a legitimate issue.

YOU JUST DON'T GET IT.   :)

Translation:

"I don't actually have an argument to make, so I'm just going to accuse you of living in a bubble instead."

This seems to be your MO around here quite a bit.

I think I get it quite well. :)


I came here to see if my opinion that
based on all the current evidence, it's not even possible to make an honest case for impeachment.
holds up, but I guess I'm not gonna be getting any real counter-arguments here...

Now who is trolling?  ::)

The legitimate argument that has those in the middle split (not the nutcases on both sides) is did Trump abuse his power to get dirt on a political opponent and if so is that impeachable.

Do you understand that?

Use government power to get dirt on a political opponent. That sounds horrible. There's only one party who is clearly guilty of that.

Waiting for the predictable smart-@SS response.

I understand what you said but I'm not sure it answers my question.

Are you saying there's there's a legitimate question whether or not Trump abused his powers to get dirt on a political opponent?

Or are you saying that based on all the current evidence, there's an honest case to be made for impeachment, because Trump did abuse his power to gather political dirt on his political opponent?

We have a scumbag president that calls traumatic brain injuries to our brave soldiers "headaches". Lets see who is going to call this scumbag out!!!

The Pentagon said on Friday that 34 service members had been diagnosed with traumatic brain injury following strikes by Iran on a base in Iraq earlier this month.

Would it be wrong of me to conclude here that you don't want to answer the question and you're trying to change the subject?

Yes it would be wrong. There is other things going on in this world.
Would it be wrong for me to conclude you agree with Trump they are just headaches and not serious injuries?

Your two questions don't make sense when pitted against each other.
Legitimate: Did Trump abuse his power? If you believe so is that an impeachable offense?
