    Deftlefthand - And you know what happened? The "seedy left" told off the idiots and made it clear, in general, that the child was off-limits as they should always be. The SNL woman that wrote one of the nastier tweets was suspended and her account frozen while it was investigated and she gave a public and contrite apology.

    Which is the way things should have worked. The left is seedy? Can you imagine if this happened with Trump insulting some kid? Deny, double-down, lie.

    So, in short, you are looking for the odd complete dick and spreading your views on them to the entire "left", which is not only intellectually lazy, but demonstrably untrue.

    The Rep/Dem thing at the end is pointless to bring up when it's pretty well known that ideologically, the Reps and Dems switched sides and judging modern either by the distant past is pointless. This is a very well-known bit of history, even outside the States.


    Is anyone else curious as to why exactly Trump, wanting to keep Mexicans out of the US, is deliberately doing so much damage to Mexico? Send the peso plunging, exacerbate poverty in the most vulnerable and how do people react? THEY GO NORTH. Into the US. He is actually busily creating the problem he's pretending to solve. Whether or not that's deliberate, some great cunning plan to create a problem to solve, or whether it's just his own bullying nature I don't know. Although it reminds me of how he acted over the Scottish golf course and his infamous eminent domain attempt to get an elderly widow's house (her name was Vera Coking). Donnie wants something, people stand in his way, they must be punished so Donnie can get what he wants. The Mexican government has defied him, Mexico must be punished.

    It's funny how the mask will slip if they can get a dig in.

    I read during the week on Twitter that Baron Trump is autistic. Horrible phrases like "oddbod" and "window licker" were used. He's not autistic btw.

    This is a ten year old boy. It highlights the seedy hypocrisy of the left.

    It reminds me of Thomas Sowell, as soon as he spoke against the Dem party and the Bigotry of Low Expectations, he got nailed with racial abuse.

    They refer to him as an Uncle Tom for being a GOP member.

    Who fought to end slavery again? Oh yeah it was Republicans

    And members of which party founded the KKK? Oh yeah it was members of the Democratic Party.
    Make up your mind, are the 'left' totaltiarians who try to impose ultra PC standards on everyone, or are they bigots and child traumatisers...

    If you're judging half the population based on some tweets you saw then you need to expand your horizons.

    Twitter and youtube comments are full of the dregs of society.

    You could go outside and talk to people on the other side of the political fence face to face and see what they really believe. You'll be surprised that they're overwhelmingly human, and agree with you on most things, but might have a different approach to solving problems.

    If you talk to lots of people and most of those conversations go badly, the common denominator in those discussions is you.

    Tipperary, apparently, several generations back. The Clonmel Nationalist ran it a week or two ago, as I recall.

    Edit. Found it. Great, great, great, great grandmother, 1700s. http://www.nationalist.ie/news/what-s-on/231686/president-trump-s-tipperary-ties.html

    All American Presidents are from Tipperary.
    It makes sense.

    Donald Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do

    The big decision will be to remove the sanctions on Russia. The practical impact may not be very important but the decision will be directly in the face of EU posturing.

    What a load of abolute trash you've just written there.

    Claims that Barron Trump's autistic? First I heard of it. Are you sure you're just making up conversations in your head like AdsByGoogle was doing before?

    Democrats founded the KKK? Care to name any democrats who are current members? Funny that you mention the KKK, since David Duke has been pretty vocal in his support for Trump.

    I mentioned it ages ago on this thread but it was constantly said by some right wingers that Michelle Obama was a transsexual and that their daughters had been kidnapped. There were others that said that they hoped the daughters were raped (Edit: btw, one of the daughters was 11 at the time).
    No-one said that the right wing were hypocrites because some idiots said that. At any point where Barron Trump is mentioned on this thread you'll see that people have said that saying those things is wrong. The worst that was said on here about Barron Trump was probably me when I said the kid looked bored witless as any 10 year would be listening to a load of old guys making speeches.

    As for calling someone Uncle Tom. That's not nice. Neither is calling someone a renegade jew as Bannons site Breitbart did.

    Strangely enough they can be both

    btw, let's not forget that Trump himself has said that Cruz's father might have helped assassinate Kennedy. He retweeted unflattering photo's of Cruz's wife. He told people to check out a non existent sex tape of one of his detractors. Trump is seedy as fcuk.

    Good to see he came good on the immigration tightening up.
    Not happy to see the sanitary cities may be able to defend against the Federal laws being implemented on rooting out criminal illegals.

    I enjoyed the Hannity interview which was fair and in a relaxed atmosphere. Got to say the donald is trying new things and i feel his policies will do wonders for the american workers.
    Agree with the donald about the media trying to portray him as racist over the fake allegations regarding the martin luther king statue. Got to be careful these days on which media to listen to


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 179 ✭✭wildgreen


    I don't think he's a man who'll be comfortable coming up short in the face of someone more capable.

    He's going to attend a press conference tomorrow after their meeting where he'll have his first taste of the UK press. I imagine it'll be a shock to his fragile ego, they'll certainly be less reverential that the US press core tend to be. It'll be interesting to see how he handles it, so far I haven't seen him confronted on his own level by anyone he couldn't quieten with abuse.

    How did the press conference go?

    Claims that Barron Trump's autistic? First I heard of it. Are you sure you're just making up conversations in your head like AdsByGoogle was doing before?

    Article about the autism stuff. I'm surprised you missed it.

    Katie Rich of ‘S.N.L.’ Is Suspended for Tweet Mocking Barron Trump. That's the one about the homeschool shooter.

    There are loads of examples of the left losing it and being worse than the people they hate. And the conversation I made up in my head was on point.. If we bring up anyone you guys like in a negative light, they're irrelevant and we're deflecting.

    The autism stuff would be quite ironic. Isn't Trump an anti vaxer?

    He is.

    He has now put a ban on people from seven countries entering the US and suspended the refugee program

    Huffington Post? Seriously? Why do you even bother arguing with atrocious evidence to back you up lol. The article just has a load of quotes from no sources with no screenshot or nothing. Did you even read the bloody thing after googling for it?

    I heard about the SNL woman, and yeah she was an idiot for posting. No worse than what Donald has done/said about people but still, bad taste.

    Blah blah blah 'looney left' here we go again with the nonsense talk. Show me some legitimate examples of a consensus belief- or at least a belief shared by many "liberals"- here that's wrong, offensive, contradictory to what we -supposedly- preach, or do you want to make another conversation up in your head because you've got no substance?

    What a pathetic argument by you.

    I see there's anger and commentry this morning about him not waiting for melina to escort her from the car to the door. He's the president, surely she should have got out and waited for him (equality and all that)! Or equally she could walk to the door unescorted by a man.

    What do the alt left think?

    I couldn't give a flying **** about nonsense stories like this. He wants us to talk about bs like this because it distracts the public from what's really going on with him: Making as much money as possible with his alliance with Putin which is out for oil money and destroying western democracies.

    Posting or talking about nonsense like not waiting for Melania is allowing him to get away with this.

    And if you have any honesty in you at all, you'll go have a look at the backlash to the Katie Rich one. It's really not hard to find. In fact, it's in that second one. Did you miss it in the headline?

    What do the alt left think?

    No idea, probably need to find some members of the "alt-left" to ask, whatever that is. Trump's policies are more important than muckstirring about his wife.

    It's basic good old fashioned etiquette or manners to wait for a lady. Nothing to do with left or right.

    Who are the 'alt left'?

    If you mean anyone who doesn't identify as alt right, that's just everybody else with a basic shred of human decency, their views are wide ranging and far reaching.

    As for me, I couldn't really give a fcuk tbh, more pressing things to be worried about :)

    To be fair, what she said was horrible and she absolutely deserved the backlash. I did get the impression from her apology that it was sincere, at least.

    Although no point trying to compare to Trump. I did it too, but let's be honest, the opposition are expected to act like rational, reasonably honorable adults. Trump isn't and nor are his closest advisors. It's nutty and shameful on his followers that rant at others who try to make up for dumb **** they do while setting the bar so low for Trump that it's barely existent. Still, Katie Rich should have known better.

    While I'm here, I read probably the most spot on post I've read on the internet in a long, long while last night.

    Since the story has died down in the last few days (unfortunately) it's important to remember that the Trump-Putin alliance is alive and well, and for anyone who doubts its existence/ isn't completely clear on what's going on this is worth a read.

    Plus he says "the left" lose it and are worse than the people they hate. Because the whole left all have the same rulebook and march in step to the same drum.

    If we used his standard of holding the left to blame for everything anyone on the left says/does then we'd have to hold the right responsible for saying that an 11 year old girl should be raped.
