    Trump isn't even religious :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,363 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    hahaha, he asked for a standing ovation for Clinton.

    What happened to locking her up?!

    A man of negative values is Trump

    I think his support base are going to find this out more and more. There's going to be a lot of angry people who voted for hom who will feel betrayed by him when he's through.

    Because putting it in writing that you support abusing them until they turn straight isn't something a first world country comes out and says.

    well i guess he'd have to do that for it to be true.

    Pence did support and demand funding for the electro therapy for those that wanted it - you know freedom of choice and all that.
    trump has always been very pro LGBT

    so maybe get the facts right

    By the way, Christie been spotted anywhere yet? That was an impressive vanishing act he pulled.

    I thought he was asking hillary herself to stand and then everybody just stood up when they heard stand.

    Crikey they're at the religion thing again.

    Amazing how much religion is used throughout this whole day.

    US really is much more religious that Ireland is despite what people may think.

    Children aren't given a choice.

    Trump isn't pro LGBT, at most he doesn't care. Someone who is pro LGBT wouldn't be running as a republican. And no, holding up a flag means nothing.

    Pence supported defunding HIV funding and putting it into corrective therapy. Thereby conflating HIV with homosexuality.

    Trump has consistently said he opposes equality for LGBT people for years now.

    So maybe while lecturing others on getting the facts right you could be fulsomely truthful?

    Again, feel like pointing out the fact that his wife is advertising her line of jewelry on the site, because that is seemingly more important than LGBT rights and Climate Change.

    Let's be clear, it's more demanding funding for electro-therapy for teenagers whose parents are horrified at the whole concept of homosexuality. Not that many people volunteer for it. And that's leaving aside that it doesn't work, that it's barbaric and disgraceful and that the VP is on the record making a stand for it.

    Freedom of choice could include the freedom to sign up to be tortured, but you'd still look askance at anyone who advocated it.

    Can't find any proof but apparently the White House now has a totally made up list of murder rates. Presumably to drop those numbers over time to make it look like he's doing something about that.

    Will be interesting to see if school shootings etc go up or down in frequency during his term.

    This from the website:
    In our nation’s capital, killings have risen by 50 percent. There were thousands of shootings in Chicago last year alone

    I take back what I said earlier, it looks like he is updating the site himself.

    Despite becoming president, he still needs to play catch up with Obama

    That's...

    Mike "the Electrocutioner" Pence

    Mike "if you like cock, you're in for a shock" Pence

    Mike "zap it before you tap it" Pence

    Mike "turning fruits into vegetables" Pence

    Mike "Deus Volt" Pence

    Mike "Thomas Edison has the best medicine" Pence

    ..and so on.

    Agreed it's inaccurate, the murder rate in DC doubled in 2015 compared to 2014. There have been thousands of shootings in Chicago though.

    Inaccurate but hardly made-up.

    Murders fell by 15% from 2015 to 2016 in DC. Surely one should use the most recent years figures but of course they don't suit Trump's agenda...

    Seems it was just taken purely from his campaign (in 2016...) - http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/A-Look-at-the-DC-Murder-Statistic-Trump-Cited-387948852.html

    Right then, down 15% on 2015, so some back of the hand calculations and murders in that city last year were 30% higher than 2014. These rates being the highest in years (you have to go back before 2008). I fully applaud your campaign to get these figures up on the white house web site!

    I am not a fan of Trump but would expect RTE as a state broadcaster to be neutral does anyone else think Caitriona Perry does not hid her dislike of him.

    Will he take a lead from the Philippines on fighting drug crime?

    Bit off topic, but for people complaining that there's not enough politically relevant music being made these days (...and the 'bad b*tch in my lap' is likely Hillary Clinton, also).



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 625 ✭✭✭130Kph


    Watching fox news (only ever for the laugh) and Trump only walked 100 meters in the parade then after all the jeering and boos he decided to get back in the car sharpish.

    The Fox commentators ignored it. Now they’re saying he’s comfortable in front of crowds. what? :eek:

    General comment:- A day that will live in infamy!!!

    Barron looks 17, is 10 .
    It's why he looks weird, you are looking at a kid who looks 17 but acts like a 10 year old
    Nearly Trumps height and trump is over 6f

    It's pathetic

    All day every show on Rte

    Protests and riots front and centre

    Didn't win the popular vote etc

    They need to be reigned in

    I know. Imagine questioning the Donald's inaccurate figures. How dare anyone do that....

    Except that's not what happened. There was protesters in some sections of the Aisles and past those he got out and walked a bit. Then the secret service told him to get back in the car right before the hotel where it's likely a high danger spot.

    Exactly he tried to walk towards the hotel and the secret service guy came up said something I'm assuming along the lines of not a hope man and they got back in the cars
