Oh brother.

The "Law and order" candidate who ran "We either have rules, or we don't have rules" and his supporters, have been reduced to "A lot of people would have taken that meeting", "How surprising is it? People knew who would they were voting for" etc.

The ABSOLUTLEY matters. He defamed Clinton as "crooked" - implying that he, therefore, was not - and look at what's happening.

Democrats need to hold his feet as close to the fire as they can. They are not obstructing. That is what the GOP did to Obama and Dems to Bush post 2006.


I support trump less than I support algren.

As if anyone who doesn't buy media bullshit must buy republican bs.

I'm criticizing democracy, not defending their votes.

Such a chaotic president. We could have John Kasich right now. The GOP really messed up

I'm in awe that Sean Spicer actually happened, you could get like... anyone to do his job, and they would've been better. Like the random security guard off the stage? Sure!

I'm sure Trump's decision to ban transgenders from the military will go over well with the left

Geez. There are like 1 million trans people in the US. We need to stop pretending there is a need for blanket laws concerning them. Each one is a different case that should be dealt with individually.

I can see the argument for it that transgender are more likely to have emotional issues as they have sky high depression rates, and in general the military is strict about not letting people in with medical conditions. Trump tried to justify it by saying it's about money though which is pretty stupid considering how tiny a fraction it is of the budget and he could have just stopped the government from paying for the surgeries

Let's face it, Trump could cure cancer and he would still be criticised by the left.

This is almost defintely just a way to distract liberals while they push the new healthcare bill through. And it will probably work.

Maybe they have emotional issues and depression BECAUSE EVERYONE DISCRIMINATES AGAINST THEM AND CHRISTIANS CONSTANTLY TELL THEM THEY'RE EVIL AND SHOULD JUST DIE.

Perhaps if we accept them, some of those emotional issues might go away, hm?

The idea of Trump curing cancer is about as absurd as imagining him flapping his tiny hands and flying into the sky.

I'm no fan of Trump, but this level of petty physical insult reminds me of the most cowardly bullies of grade school.

Physical insult? Verbal at best. It was not even an insult.

I think Darth Indiana Bond, who made this thread, can change the subject line to a closer-to-reality "The Trump Era: The Perfect Marriage of Authoritarianism and Crony-Capitalism".

It was a verbally delivered insult about one's physical features.

Trump has spent his entire life insulting and belittling people. I have no problem in insulting and making fun of bullies who should learn to take their own medicine.

I saw it as a mocking reference to the mention of small hands in the debate.

Pretty sure most are depressed before they become transgender, that's why they make the transition, out of hope it will change them

Why are they depressed though? Because they don't feel comfortable in their body and society is telling them they're wrong, perverted, sinners and evil.

Look at the root cause of the depression. There's a reason the suicide rate among gays, lesbians and transgendered is so high. As the acceptance of gays and lesbians has increased, that rate has dropped. And there's a reason for it.

The military accepting them helped prevent this depression, helped prevent suicides. Trump's policy basically says, "screw you, heroes who were braver than I ever was. You're unwanted and unwelcome." Duh. Who wouldn't be depressed over that?
