Pretty much. The thing is as much as I’ve said we need third parties or let’s get rid of this simple seesaw stuff it’s irrelevant. We ain’t changing anytime soon. We’re America where what we’ve been doing should continue to be done because god damn change is anti-American.
Keep in mind we’re the same people who scream we need term limits for Congress even though we pick our representatives regularly. We just almost always pick the same ones.
I definitely didn’t tell anyone what he/she must do. Neither did Biden, for that matter. He did say, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me, or Trump, then you ain’t black.”
Dumbass comment no doubt and I won’t spend any time defending it. But how did he respond? Like we expect most adults to do when they screw up. Acknowledge it and apologize.
Trump has a long history of racist speeches and actions and do we have evidence of even one apology? I mean he didn’t just call actual Nazis good people, but relentlessly pushed the most racist conspiracy theory on a President of all time. Even when finally acknowledging that Obama was born in the US he didn’t apologize.
I’m not sure he did that…
What was that? (I have no idea whether he did, because I don’t even know what theory you’re talking about.)
LOL!
@Legalsteel…I LOVE to watch Parliament!
Somebody can get up and talk…then in the most orderly and gentlemanly way possible they are told 1) “Sit down, you dumb-ass son-of-a-bitch”! 2) there will be some “Here! Here’s”!, and 3) they sit down!
As a dumb yank, I’m dumbfounded (and impressed!); and think: "Did that guy just get called a “dumb-ass son-of a bitch” without actually being called a “dumb-ass son-of a bitch”?
LOVE it!
Good people on both sides when one has Nazi’s?
You really don’t remember the birther movement huh?
But my point was Joe acted how we teach children. When you screw up you acknowledge it and take responsibility and apologize. Trump has never done that. I can only hope that the Trump voters are actually teaching children the way we should. Ok watch how the President acts towards others Johnny…now you do the exact opposite.
This. Watching our legislative shit is a snooze fest. I could watch Britain all day if I could forgive those fuckers for 1812. Never forget!
I can say there are good people in every country without meaning that terrorists are good people. Regardless, you can read what he said: PolitiFact | In Context: Donald Trump’s ‘very fine people on both sides’ remarks (transcript)
I thought that may be what you were talking about, but calling it “racist” threw me. I have no idea how that was “racist.” Nationalist(or something like that?), maybe?
That’d be swell, if everyone wouldn’t pounce on a show of weakness from him(or anyone that doesn’t march to the Progressive tune).
That’s probably why he became President and has a chance to do remain so.
As I’ve indicated in the past, each man (Trump and Biden) could benefit from less “ad-libbing” and tweeting.
The problem for Biden is that Trump’s bullshit has become almost “expected” and is solidly baked into his Poll Numbers. For Biden, not so much.
Every “Corn-Pop” story or mis-speak will be magnified 100-fold, slowly chipping away at his Poll numbers.
Why do you care? You’re white.
He was ten.
It’s proper banter. The current PM had one of the most hilarious quotes attributable to him.
Cameron boiled my piss in many ways, but the man had some solid gold at PMQ’s.
We won’t forget either. It’s the one time we really put our boot to the ass of the uppity colonials. Never forget that ourselves and the Canadians humbled you once!
So, he’s a victim because he gets pounced on so much, but then…
…what’s great about Trump to his cult members is that he…pounces on people relentlessly and never apologizes when he’s wrong (see Obama birther claim).
Summing up - Trump is awesome because he gets after people, no apologies, but it’s not fair when people get after him, everyone is so mean.
So he’s the “snowflake that fights!”.
Hilarious.
He’s not a victim, because:
What the fuck does this even mean? Trump can’t take responsibility or apologize because people would pounce on him? Come on this is beyond ridiculous. You’re saying an adult can’t take responsibility and apologize. Pretty much all politicians and adults have done this. But Trump can’t do it because people would pounce? Well good now we can say Trump definitely shouldn’t acknowledge when he’s screwed up or take responsibility.
Well how often have other President’s been attacked for that? Wonder what was different. If Obama’s dad was born in Canada would we be having the conversation? If you don’t think this was because Obama’s dad was born in Kenya and he was half black then it’s not even worth discussing. You’ll just feign shock that someone could think it was racist.
Hell a study was even done confirming what everyone knew. The people who bought into this shit were white Republicans who showed racial tendencies. Because of fucking course.
The mental gymnastics you use to defend Trump is beyond impressive. Both of these claims of yours are absolutely insane.
He SHOULDN’T apologize, for that reason. Apologies just get twisted into either, “See: He knew he was wrong, and that was totally racist(or whatever they want to call someone),” or, “If he was truly sorry, he would repent.” The penance is always getting out of the way.
Have you ever listened to him? He basically plays the victim card 24/7. He is constantly whining about how everyone in the world is out to get him.
I mean we’re getting right to the heart of his base here. Rational people: If you screw up acknowledge, take responsibility, and apologize.
Trump base when he doesn’t so that: That’s a sign of weakness! He can’t act like an adult because how weak would that be! It’s not his fault people would jump on him. Everyone is mean to him!
For fucks sake.
Ok I don’t know what the point is of this. Politicians throughout history have taken responsibility and apologized. You just saw one do it.
But Trump can’t because…well see if Trump has a behavior that people question we really need to make an excuse for it. I mean we knew this already about the things his base would do to defend him, but you’re arms going to pop off with these insane reaches.
Agree to disagree I guess. Trump can’t behave as every President before him because reasons. Never take responsibility, never apologize. Like I said I really hope Trumps base isn’t teaching their kids this bullshit.
There was an actual Republican presidential candidate and current senator who is born in Canada. What color is he? Hmmmmmmm…
