The Goat Pen

you guys never paid much attention to Ron Paul did you?

is the argument we're not killers, or that Putin's killing is unjustified and our is?

or is the problem that he used the word killers?

What Trump said is basically a pre-Trump leftist talking point. The fact that the right is on Trump's side and the left is whining about those particular words is hilarious. Team Blue and Team Red have no soul.

Some of you guys are taking a long time to figure out that most of us are more afraid of the left wing globalist agenda than we are of Vladimir Putin.

It's not just the left whining about those words. And people of all stripe want to know WHY he used that particular talking point. Sure we've probably killed foreign journalists, maybe even some domestic ones - but why would you verbalize that very disturbing probability unless you really REALLY are in the bag for Putin for some as yet unknown reason?

maybe it's because he's not a politician and hasn't learned to lie at the drop of a hat yet.

I wouldn't say that I'm afraid but the rightwing dumbfuck agenda has me a little concerned. It's always self-centered, short-sighted, ignorance-fueled and fear-based.

yea...always

Trump staff doesn't know how to turn on the lights in the office. This is a top notch group of people we've got in charge.

Trump has dementia. Pass it on.

I'm thinking he learned how to lie early and often. Either as himself or John Miller or John Barron.

if we're going to start throwing around generalizations do we get to say that 92% of the African Americans that voted for Obama only voted for him because he was black?

Nah. 92% (I bet it was higher) of Af Ams voted for Obama only voted for him because he was a Democrat and Michelle was black. For a while, old black people had their eye on him and wondered whether he actually was at any of the meetings.

I know you're joking but we both know the answer.

Only partially joking. Michelle was a huge factor for black people. She was his firewall...and the conservative opposition tried to paint her as a liability, when she was far from it. It's part of the reason Trump doesn't fuck with her.

People from the community were not running out to vote Herman Cain, or Ben Carson...and don't even bring up Al Sharpton.

Barack was more than just a melanin content vote.

If Corey Booker doesn't get married...and get married to a exceptional and impressive black woman (or at least an Afro Latina), he can kiss his national aspirations good bye, too (as far as hitting that "over 90%" black vote).

Who?

NJ Senator Corey Booker (D). He's positioning himself as a Dem leader. Kinda Obama Lite in personal and educational history.

Just saw where Trump said there have been many cases of terrorist attacks that the dishonest media has chosen not to report on. "They have their reasons, and you understand that"...

Man the people in the tank for this guy are going to have to dig deep and go to some dark places to keep it up.

Trump walks around the White House only wearing socks.
