Donald Trump Thread aka End of Days

[BlueBMW]

He's still president?  Sad...

But seriously, how is he still president and how do his supports still support him?  I cant figure it out.

I'm pretty sure that his supporters will support him no matter what happens.  As the recording of his "locker room talk" didn't affect that I think that nothing will.  I'm hoping Mueller's investigation heats up and gets him out of office.

[NecroPhile]

Morons will continue to support him because in their minds every bad thing he does is acceptable because Hilary would've done worse.

::sigh::

Where's Fox News about this?  I vividly remember them complaining about the $44M that Obama spent.

[seieienbu]

And Flynn pleads guilty to two counts of lying to the FBI.  Maybe I'm a tin-foil hat wearing lunatic, but I wonder what they actually have on him to make him plead guilty to anything...

No tin foil hat needed for this one at all. This shit seems pretty apparent.

[seieienbu]

I read trump's twitter and he just won't shut up about Hillary.  It's pathetic.

[BigusSchmuck]

Come on Demies, you guys can do better than this.

I think it was too soon.  They should wait for Mueller and the various congressional inquiries to finish.

For all the questionable things,

I have to say at least my investments are doing great. . .

Sometimes I just like to look for the positives.

[NecroPhile]

I'll give him credit for some of the stock market increases, but it's not like it was crashing before Trump.  If you followed the DOW trajectory from early in Obama's presidency, it'd be at ~22,000 anyway.

He owns golf courses. He has vacation homes at golf courses. He spends his time away from the White House on his own properties and does business and spends time negotiating while golfing. That's the difference between him and Obama on that front. Face it, Trump is already doing more for this country than Obama did in eight years. While the left just cries racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia all day and calls him a Nazi, Stalin, KKK, Trump is actually getting shit done. Seriously, that's all the left has. Oh, and that Trump is going to kill all these poor people by taking from them and giving it all to those evil, slimy corrupt horrible greedy rich people who stole everything from the innocent little guy. It's the same recycled garbage used over and over by wealthy socialist Democrats stoking class warfare and racial tension to keep getting re-elected. While the left sits around worshipping Crazy Bernie the millionaire socialist and those charitable Clintons who somehow ended up making a couple hundred million dollars over the last 20 years, Trump is working to solve the major problems this country has been facing for years but few politician have had the guts to tackle. And that's in the face of an unprecedented misinformation and slander campaign by the overwhelming majority of the media, the Dems, and many Republicans. In the end nothing will come of this whole Russia investigation scam other than it being a calculated plan to stymie Trump as much a possible by both the Dems, some Republican "Never Trumpers", and some within the intelligence community. Slowly but surely the details of the real collusion are coming out with the whole dossier, Fusion GPS, and the Dems and in the end it will be interesting to see how it all comes out.

I could make a lengthy list of things he and those in his administration have accomplished but really, why bother? If you're even somewhat politically informed you already know what he's done and will either attribute it to Obama (stock market, GDP growth, crushing of ISIS, low unemployment, job growth, consumer confidence, etc), call it racism (decrease in border crossings, gang member arrests, travel ban, US embassy moving to Jerusalem, etc), call it hand outs for the rich and corporations (tax bill, cutting regulations, net neutrality gone, etc), a war on women (rollback of contraceptive mandate in Obamacare, rollback of Mexico City Policy, amending Title IX guidelines, etc), a war on the environment (drilling in Anwar, Keystone, XL pipelines, pulling out of Paris Climate Accord) and whatever else. I'm sure there's an insidious motive behind reforming the VA, pulling out of TPP, decertifying the Iran nuclear deal, and everything else because he's a horrible, racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, transphobic monster, right?

[seieienbu]

Great.  He's a corporate shill giving big business what they want and he's creating fear where none should be to create a boogeyman enemy to oppose.  That's "getting shit done" apparently.

Here's a crazy thought: maybe I disagree with things he's doing just because I think he's wrong or that they'll do more harm than good.

Only an ignorant piece of shit would dismiss every argument against Trump's actions as being born from hatred of him personally.  Give up now.  You have nothing intelligent to bring to the discussion.

[RyuHayabusa]

Um, not all businesses are big businesses. The tax bill benefits small businesses and they make up the majority of all businesses. You lefties demonize business but they're the job creators. Not everyone can get a posh government job where you can't get fired, make on average more than in the private sector, and get every federal holiday off. Quit watching MSNBC so much. Also, this boogie man you're talking about. You lefties are all a bunch of Neville Chamberlains, thinking you can apologize, appease, or pay off anyone who would do this nation and it's people harm. No need to create an enemy to oppose. Unfortunately there are plenty outside of this country and within as well.

[mitsuman]

Why bother? Because you have a fucking point to make. You can't come into a discussion, say "You guys are wrong, but I'm not going to actually give examples of why you are wrong. You just are!"

List five things that he has done to improve this country since he has been inaugurated. Five, with some sort of documented backup.

Was Obama fantastic? Nope, not even close. But he wasn't a maniacal, egotistical, racist, misogynistic, bafoon.
He is moving this country backwards, in so many ways.

[seieienbu]

A quick google search points to over half the money going to the super rich.  I'd much rather the government keep my tax refund if that means that the rich guys paid taxes.

 I want the government to continue paying off social security to all the elderly who paid in.  I want the government to provide good schools for children to gain an education.  I want the government to have good roads for people to use.  I don't want the top 1% to gain a trillion dollars that could have gone to these things.

If you actually read my post I listed numerous things but I'm not going to waste my time writing a dissertation with "documented backup" when you didn't even read my post. It's up to you to do some research instead of watching MSNBC and looking at the Huffpost and Vox all day.

As for Obama not being a "maniacal, egotistical, racist, misogynistic, bafoon" he most certainly was egotistical, racist, and a buffoon. And moving the country backwards? Seriously? In what way?

[RyuHayabusa]

Funny how the Democrats used to sound like Trump. Just goes to show how far left the Dems have gone. What was that about a boogiemam? Be honest. The Democrats looked at demographic projections and figured it was in their best interests to get on the side of the immigrants in the name of political power.

[RyuHayabusa]

A quick google search points to over half the money going to the super rich.  I'd much rather the government keep my tax refund if that means that the rich guys paid taxes.

Um, so you do know that the "rich guys" pay the overwhelming majority of taxes, right? The top 1% pays roughly 40% of all income taxes. The top 10% pay roughly 70% while the bottom 50% pay around 3%. Yes, the wealthy have most of the money but they also pay most of the taxes. Why liberals think the rich pay no taxes is beyond me. Someone has to pay for all those child tax credits for the people making under $20,000 with three kids and no high school diploma.

I want the government to continue paying off social security to all the elderly who paid in.  I want the government to provide good schools for children to gain an education.  I want the government to have good roads for people to use.  I don't want the top 1% to gain a trillion dollars that could have gone to these things.

Maybe if the majority of budget spending didn't go towards Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid along with all the immense waste within the government we could do those things, though I'd say in large part our education problems aren't a money issue but rather cultural decline.

Perhaps I could write this in a way that someone from the moral write could relate:  For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required

Politicians, like Trump, have their stupidly expensive elections paid for by oligarchs like the Koch brothers.  The Koch brothers spent $889 million on the 2016 election.  Why?  Because it makes them money in the long run.  If they wouldn't make billions from funding elections then they wouldn't pay for it.  I dislike how the mega rich will waste vast sums of money on campaign ads, fake news stories on social media, and overall nothing of worth to save themselves money. 

Why yes, they Do often pay more money to the US coffers than I do but I honestly don't care.  They have more money; vastly more money.  If I can pay my taxes then they can pay their capital gains taxes (which are at a lower rate than what I pay) and not decide "It's unfair to me because I'm rich so I should buy some politicians to make things better."

Maybe if the majority of budget spending didn't go towards Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid along with all the immense waste within the government we could do those things, though I'd say in large part our education problems aren't a money issue but rather cultural decline.

Immense waste like spending $150k on golf carts at Trump's hotel?  Money from taxpayers like me that eventually goes back into Trump's pockets?  Yeah, I'd much rather that money went to retired elderly or was spent on medicine and vaccines for poor children.  A definition of government waste is essentially every stupid thing Trump does to help himself jerk off to how great of a human being he is.

I did read your post, or at least tried to. I'm not sure you made an actual point. You rambled about things that are going on and how someone on the left would perceive them.

I have done research. I don't take this shit lightly. I do not watch MSNBC, or hardly any TV for that matter, especially broadcast news. I don't read huff post or vox (whatever the fuck that is). I like to keep tabs on US politics from international sources mostly.

He (and when I say he, I am including his administration) have begun to DECIMATE rights for the LGBT community. He has pushed for a near theocracy. He has sold out what protected areas we have left so they can be developed. He is embracing fossil fuels while the rest of the world is moving on to renewables.

His tax plan has a slight silver lining. Maybe his cut on corporate tax will get some industries to move back to the US.

As for him taking credit for a lot of the prosperity in the US this past year...sure, right. The DOW was on the way up when Obama was still in office and Trump was daydreaming about ramming his daughter. Jobs were slowly making a comeback.

Politics is not an overnight thing. What ever he decides or signs off on today will not show fruition in the next week, month, or even year more than likely.

Not only is he poor at what he does, he surrounds himself by backwards thinking, ignorant people in his administration.
At least W had a decent administration, albeit morally bankrupt, they at least understood diplomacy and how to keep the country running decently.

I tried to give him a chance. It just seems eveytime he does something that I think "ah good, maybe we aren't totally fucked" he does something to change my mind.

Now, in closing, don't get me wrong, all politicians are shit. It's nit just Trump. Maybe I'm a slight anarchist, but I say dissolve the government, and start over. Set short term limits on all positions. Get rid of career politicians. Get a control over the money used in elections and all other things. Make lobbying illegal (which I know Trump has at least put a time period on when someone can go from politician to being a lobbyist, so yay him).

[ClodBusted]

Trump twitters today:

"RyuHayabusa is a total loser."

[turboswimbz]

For the Record: I have found that Democrats are generally quite against immigration and have been for decades.  Most of their, recent so called support is just to oppose the opposite side.

Also I find Rich people aren't the issues, Corporations are.

If either side go there heads out of their asses and stopped fighting with the other side maybe we'd actually close up some debt

Then again keeping people divided works wonders for those that use it

[RyuHayabusa]

Perhaps I could write this in a way that someone from the moral write could relate:  For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required

Given? Spoken like a true liberal. Not every rich person was born with money. Not everyone had their wealth given to them. Most wealthy people worked hard for their money, took chances, failed a few times along the way, etc. Yeah, Trump was born into money and then he built it up exponentially but this whole deep seated anti-wealth idea on the left is ridiculous, especially considering most of the leaders of the left are filthy rich themselves.

Politicians, like Trump, have their stupidly expensive elections paid for by oligarchs like the Koch brothers.  The Koch brothers spent $889 million on the 2016 election.  Why?  Because it makes them money in the long run.  If they wouldn't make billions from funding elections then they wouldn't pay for it.  I dislike how the mega rich will waste vast sums of money on campaign ads, fake news stories on social media, and overall nothing of worth to save themselves money.

Yes, elections are far too expensive and there is too much money buying influence within politics. Keep in mind that Trump pretty much funded his entire primary run for the Republican nomination with $50 million of his own money and a few million in small donations, and overall spent millions more of his own money against Hillary. Also, he ended spending much less than Hillary, somewhere around $1.4 billion vs $900 million. One does have to wonder why Hillary, awash in CGI money, didn't any of her own money.

Why yes, they Do often pay more money to the US coffers than I do but I honestly don't care.  They have more money; vastly more money.  If I can pay my taxes then they can pay their capital gains taxes (which are at a lower rate than what I pay) and not decide "It's unfair to me because I'm rich so I should buy some politicians to make things better."

Often pay more? Get real. You already know they pay more taxes to the US coffers than you do. Quite whining.

Immense waste like spending $150k on golf carts at Trump's hotel?  Money from taxpayers like me that eventually goes back into Trump's pockets?  Yeah, I'd much rather that money went to retired elderly or was spent on medicine and vaccines for poor children.  A definition of government waste is essentially every stupid thing Trump does to help himself jerk off to how great of a human being he is.

Funny, Democrats didn't care about how much how much money it cost to fly Obama around for 8 years. Now, you do know it cost $105,662,975 for Obama's vacations and travels over his 8 years, right? ONE HUNDERED AND FIVE MILLION DOLLARS. Democrats are so funny. You guys add $10 trillion to the debt then all of a sudden you become deficit hawks when Trump takes office. Give me a break.

[RyuHayabusa]

I have done research. I don’t take this shit lightly. I do not watch MSNBC, or hardly any TV for that matter, especially broadcast news. I don’t read huff post or vox (whatever the fuck that is). I like to keep tabs on US politics from international sources mostly.

What, you sit around watching Al Jazeera and BBC all day? No wonder you're so misinformed.

He (and when I say he, I am including his administration) have begun to DECIMATE rights for the LGBT community.

Really? Like what? He said he doesn't mind if some weirdo tranny in a dress uses the women's room at Trump Tower. What else do you want?

He has pushed for a near theocracy.

Bullshit. I'm an atheist so I know this isn't even close to being true. What, because he's saying Merry Christmas? As a conservative atheist I unfortunately have to deal with the bad reputation atheists have because of all the whacko leftists who want to tear down crosses that have been around for a hundred years because they're "offended".

He has sold out what protected areas we have left so they can be developed. He is embracing fossil fuels while the rest of the world is moving on to renewables.

He's helping make America energy independent and the world leader in energy production. Face it, there are ZERO renewable sources of energy that plentiful enough or efficient enough to get off of fossil fuels. You know it. I know it. Until something new comes along that isn't going to change.

His tax plan has a slight silver lining. Maybe his cut on corporate tax will get some industries to move back to the US.

That's the plan, along with expansion of those already here. It's about jobs and keeping American wealth here.

As for him taking credit for a lot of the prosperity in the US this past year...sure, right. The DOW was on the way up when Obama was still in office and Trump was daydreaming about ramming his daughter. Jobs were slowly making a comeback.

So it's just a coincidence that the Dow has risen nearly 7,000 points since Trump was elected? It just suddenly skyrocketed for no reason. Oh, it was Obama. That's right. An anemic GDP around 1.8% all of a sudden jumps to 3.3%. Coincidence? Or another delayed Obama after effect? Unemployment rate? Yeah, that was already low though it's gotten a bit lower since Trump. However, keep in mind that it's not the real number anyway, as Trump often said on the campaign trail but doesn't mention now.

Not only is he poor at what he does, he surrounds himself by backwards thinking, ignorant people in his administration.

Statistics, massive business successes, and the fact he won the presidency against all odds say he's not poor at what he does. As for the rest, what you call backwards thinking and ignorance I'd call common sense. Not everyone thinks simply putting lipstick on a dude in a dress makes him a woman. Not everyone thinks people who come here illegally should be showered in free government benefits and be let out of prison to roam free after repeatedly committing felonies. Not everyone thinks taxes should be raised on workers to fund free healthcare, education, housing, etc for the entire nation. Not everyone thinks like you do.

At least W had a decent administration, albeit morally bankrupt, they at least understood diplomacy and how to keep the country running decently.

Seriously? I hated W's eight years. Good guy but woefully ill equipped for the job. Better than Gore though. As for diplomacy, kissing ass and giving away the nation's wealth didn't help anything. Iraq was a mistake. NK kept working on nukes. Terrorism spread around the world. Not a great track record and things didn't get better under Obama. Funny how libs hated W until Trump came around.

I'm being sincere when I say your arguments would carry more weight if you could refrain from the childish nonsense. While I disagree with 95% of what you've posted, I could at least respect your positions if they weren't all laced with antagonist horseshit.

That sort of childish bullshit is what got us into our current situation with the Twitter Troll in Chief.

So no, I'm not hiding. I'm always happy to have a conversation. You have made a couple valid points, despite them being couched in 4chan-level bullshit. And sure, Nulltard insulted you first. Maybe rise above it. I know Trump likes to "hit em back 10 times harder", but it'd be nice if people remembered what dignity was, instead of grade school mentality. Maybe we'd get somewhere.

You talk about 4chan-level bullshit right after calling the president the Twitter Troll in Chief. See, that's what it all boils down to is hypocrisy. You hear all this talk about civility, dignity, and maturity from people who flagrantly insult anyone who disagrees with them by labeling them as racists, sexists, bigots, homophobes, xenophobes, Nazis, white supremacists, etc. I initially didn't want to get in an argument here but sometimes when you see something that's flat out bullshit you can't help but say something. Dude posts some bullshit link talking about how much golf Trump plays all the while ignoring how much golf Obama played or the fact over $100 million was spent on Obama's vacations and travels. I guess he probably didn't even know that but then again how would he since 95% of the media is pro-Obama and anti-Trump.

I'll agree with you, I wish things were more civilized at times but we're a nation now divided more than at any other time probably since the Civil War.

[jlued686]

Calling him the Twitter Troll in Chief is too much? Damn, you're sensitive... He's a Twitter Troll, is he not? I mean, shit man, you're not denying that are you? Good grief...

People give him shit about golfing because he famously said if he was president he wouldn't waste time playing golf because he'd be too busy working. Plus there's this. Are you so far gone you can't see the hypocrisy? Come on.

I can't go on too much right now because I'm on my phone in the middle of nowhere, but I'll just say that I respect some of your opinions, despite how badly I disagree with them and how I think some of them are just flat out ludicrous. I only just jump in here from time to time to try to get folks to converse instead of insult and troll. I'm not good at it, but I try.

I am not a big fan of RPGs, though...

I told you, man, I stopped participating because it was pointless. And yeah, I was guilty of antagonizing behavior, too. The difference here is that I realized it and stopped. I’m not interested  in lobbing shit at people online, nor am I interested in lumping people into libtard/conservatard boxes, or whatever. That sort of childish bullshit is what got us into our current situation with the Twitter Troll in Chief.

So no, I’m not hiding. I’m always happy to have a conversation. You have made a couple valid points, despite them being couched in 4chan-level bullshit. And sure, Nulltard insulted you first. Maybe rise above it. I know Trump likes to “hit em back 10 times harder”, but it’d be nice if people remembered what dignity was, instead of grade school mentality. Maybe we’d get somewhere.

You talk about 4chan-level bullshit right after calling the president the Twitter Troll in Chief. See, that's what it all boils down to is hypocrisy. You hear all this talk about civility, dignity, and maturity from people who flagrantly insult anyone who disagrees with them by labeling them as racists, sexists, bigots, homophobes, xenophobes, Nazis, white supremacists, etc. I initially didn't want to get in an argument here but sometimes when you see something that's flat out bullshit you can't help but say something. Dude posts some bullshit link talking about how much golf Trump plays all the while ignoring how much golf Obama played or the fact over $100 million was spent on Obama's vacations and travels. I guess he probably didn't even know that but then again how would he since 95% of the media is pro-Obama and anti-Trump.

I'll agree with you, I wish things were more civilized at times but we're a nation now divided more than at any other time probably since the Civil War.

I'm getting ready to play Lunar on the PSP. Just finished playing through Castlevania Symphony of the Night on the Saturn. Not the best port due to longer load times, no transparencies, and having to go through the menu to access the map but it's got a few interesting extras not in the PS1 version.

This is Fighting Street, after all.

A quick google search points to over half the money going to the super rich.  I'd much rather the government keep my tax refund if that means that the rich guys paid taxes.

Maybe if...

Comrade, we are diametrically opposed politically.

HOWEVER, I offer this because PCE:

Please enjoy this brief moment of common ground I have painstakingly nurtured for the pcefx community.

You are welcome

Hahaha, I didn't know about that, another episode I missed! Must've been hard for you to include that clip, comrade, but I'm glad that you did!

SHUT THE FUCK UP.

I actually forgot that this was Fighting Street, asshole.

NOW I LOOK LIKE A SENILE DUMBFUCK.

Thanks!

I honestly believe it is the only moment in history where PURE LOVE explodes from the COLLISION of the Trump Universe and the TG-16 community...

I hope I am wrong, but I don't think so...

Ahhh, I played Lunar Silver Starman on Sega-CD back in the day... but I never played Saturn Symphony of the Night (I am aware of the differences, but I love comparing games... one day I'll get to it).

OK, I'll have to play a few minutes of Dracula X (PCE) today so that our positive energy (powered by Konami) will CROSS STREAMS

I am serious, comrade. I'll be thinking of you every time I encounter an ancient patriarch sucking the blood of the working class.
