we know you don't "like" it. That's not what anyone is driving at. What we're driving at, or at least I am, is that he is not planning this. He is not being masterful or brilliant in any way, shape or form. He is being himself, and some people eat it up. Because they are as stupid as he acts.BS44325 said:
There was nothing racist about it...that's just ridiculous. Aside from that though you are missing the difference between what I like and what I think works. I don't "like" Trump speaking the way he does but I recognize it's devasting effectiveness. That is the Trump that won the election. He will continue to win this way.PJ_Soul said:
Why do you think him acting like a bumbling, racist moron is a masterful performance? If you think he is acting like that on purpose to... what? Make everyone make fun of him? - and not even stringing full sentences together for the most part - then I don't even know what to say to you. Trump acts like that because that is who and what he is, not because he's putting on an act in an attempt to.... make everyone think he's a fucking idiot? Or am I completely misinterpreting your post??BS44325 said:

this. I can't tell for sure if he's racist himself, or just says really ignorant things unintentionally. but he did run a racist campaign, which is a hallmark of the republicans.ledvedderman said:

What did he say today that would be considered offensive to any race?
If anyone out here that is of a different race than Donald Trump, I'd be interested to know what offended you.
Please don't blast me for asking.
Anyway that's what many of us like, is the bumbling,nonscriped off the cuff talking. He may not be the smoothest speaker, I'll give you that, but he didn't need a teleprompter either.
When he says the same thing twice which he does all the time, that is a mental pause while he is deciding what to say next.
Some people just say (huhhh, uhhhhh uuuum)
then continue.
So, but I missed it, I have a really good ear and am as anti racist as you can be. At what point has the Donald Trump been racist? What race of people can't stand him? Tell me who they are?
(You had this discussion months ago & you
ALL agree.)
No snark here, just respectfully curious.
I do believe that Trump ran a racist campaign. I don't know if I believe that Trump the man is a racist, but Trump the candidate and the President plays on fears of other races. When he says Mexicans are sending criminals and rapists, the logic of that is to play on the public's fear of losing their country to Mexicans. When you say that a religion is at war with us and that you're proposing restricting access to people of a certain religion from certain areas...that's racist. When you actually make a preference in refugees coming from one religion over another, it's racist.
So there's that. Stick around here though, man. We'll do battle plenty I'm sure but if we ever met at a show- who gives a shit about A Moving Train?Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0 -

Oh that's just laughable! The billionaire businessman who used his campaign to enrich his business is not a known corruption risk? Laugh out loud.BS44325 said:
The only thing that has been suggested to be corruptable right now is Flynn post-lie to Pence. I'm not sure how that's worse then the known corruptable power that was Hillary. Not the same ballpark. At all.mickeyrat said:
still not the same ballpark. at all. preventing corruptable power so corruptable power can take office? stop insulting my intelligence.BS44325 said:
Hillary was a corruptable power. The FBI was giving everybody the heads-up. It was just pushback.mickeyrat said:
colluding with an adversarial foreign power in the electoral process is a lot different than leaking pertinent info on corruptable power. And in the early stages of this particular administration, its a civic obligation imo.bootlegger10 said:
If that is the case than why so mad if Trump colluded with Russia to leak the Hillary campaign's emails? Just pushback, you know, the foundation of this country?mickeyrat said:
exactly. the very founding of this country was pushback against power. what is a leak other than pushback?mrussel1 said:Illegal or not, the information is true. By definition, a leak is true.

Jared Kushner Delivers Critique of CNN to Time Warner Executive
Trump’s son-in-law and adviser complains that coverage has been slanted against the president
In the final stretch of the presidential campaign, Mr. Trump said he would block the agreement and singled out the news network in his statement. “AT&T is buying Time Warner, and thus CNN, a deal we will not approve in my administration,” he said. The deal will be reviewed by government agencies including the Justice Department.
Such rhetoric from a presidential then-candidate and meetings such as the one between Messrs. Kushner and Ginsberg are unusual, according to Mark Feldstein, journalism historian at the University of Maryland.
“Lord knows that every president has been angered by their news coverage, going back to George Washington,” said Mr. Feldstein. “But to engage in that kind of bare-knuckled tactics is extraordinary.”
Mr. Kushner has taken issue with specific CNN contributors including Van Jones, a Democrat who served in the Obama administration, and Ana Navarro, a Republican strategist, who have each criticized Mr. Trump in harsh terms, the people familiar with the matter said.
