#47 President Donald Trump

HughFreakingDillon · February 17

I haven’t been to any countries I’d consider a shithole, so I’m not going to speak on something I haven’t experienced. I’ve been all over the US.

Um, what? No. Why would you think that?

Because you mentioned it doesn't happen in a month.

HughFreakingDillon · February 17

Suggesting it wouldn’t happen in a small block of time is not the same as claiming time is the only factor.

Everything you listed is true. And it’s scary AF to be watching it in real time. Your government is a dumpster fire. But your country is still not a shithole.

I agree with your last sentence. Disagree with your second last sentence.

I didn't say it was, neither did Spiritual, by the way.

How do you define a piece of shit country though? Was Germany a piece of shit country a hundred years ago? Not saying we are about to send a bunch of people to concentration camps but they elected Hitler just like we elected Trump. He was elected with less than 50% of the vote too. That Nazi government was surely a dumpster fire!

You really splitting that hair? He asked “how long until we can start calling the US a shithole?”.

Anyway, I don’t have the criteria you seek. But it doesn’t happen a month into a new presidency.

Why are you putting quote marks but at the same time purposely choosing to misquote me

HughFreakingDillon · February 18

😂 sorry. “Piece of shit country”. Didn’t realize there was such a difference that it would illicit offence.

It wasn’t purposeful. It was a mistake. Jeez.

The US is not a shithole. I refuse to define a country by its leaders. Turn off the news, and it’s the same place it was 6 months ago. Shitty people live everywhere. That has always, and will always, be the case.

US politics is a shithole.

My initial response was going to be similar, unit I got to thinking for the 5,000th time, voters voted for an inept, amoral dictator. Twice (sort of). So to my way of thinking, if you define a country by the kind of people who do that, any country that does that is a shithole (we are not alone on that one!).

On the other hand, if you define a country by it's geographical and environmental features, the U.S. is, for the most part, pretty amazing, both in it's variety of topography and natural features.

And if you define a country by it's cultural and creative and inventive output, it's a mixed bag, but so much of it is outstanding. We invented jazz and blues, and baseball! On the other hand, we also invented Kid Rock, fast food, and most of the world's toxic chemicals. No one is perfect, lol.

Just wanna say thanks to @mickeyrat for keeping the insane amount of insane maga info flowing here. It is so hard to keep up with it all (and even with your help, we all need to know that we have to keep our eyes wide open to everything... boggling out of our heads).

really? I appreciate that.
Sometimes it feels like too much posting and others have intimated as much not too long ago.

Plus it seems like I'm not even posting half of the shit going on.

I appreciate the info too, but the nature of the screen shots make it unreadable to me unless I quote your post and then backspace if I have nothing to say. But that's MY problem. lol

same with me....I can't read it but I try!

well, I am on the phone so maybe that formatting is at play?

yeah I think when viewing on a phone it looks perfect...just on desktop it's really hard to see

i just right click the image and then click open image in another tab. Works for me.
Thanks Mickey

Countdown to the 🍊 🤡 blaming President Joe Biden for thebplane crash in Toronto.

Everyone will blame whoever they. Didn’t vote for. Even though this took place in Canada, so it’ll be ridiculous either way.

find it interesting that oil prices have seemed to settle around the $70 per barrel mark give or take a few either direction.

WE havent "unleashed" our energy sector , yet.

- Please be careful not to misquote people.
- Not liking a countries government is one thing, but be careful not to paint the entire country with the same brush.

But we know it's President Plane Crash's fault.
What's he up to like 69 plane crashes since he took office on 1/20 and decided to gut the FAA?
Hell of a month.

Gern Blansten · February 18

Did you see the video of that crash? Holy shit I can't believe NO ONE got killed.

It sure did look like the plane came down way too fast...maybe wind issue or something

Airport Fire Chief said runway was dry and there was no gusts at the time of this incident. There are crew(s) on flight line watch at all times.

Poncier · February 18

Looked like they thought they still had a few hundred feet of descent to go the way they hit the runway.

Maybe the plane was equipped with the same brand of altimeter as the Blackhawk in DC. Probably made by SpaceX.

Pearl Jam's next album will be produced by Space X and feature enhanced TikTok features when you play it on your Google Pixel while you have the X app open.

Yeah that's exactly what it looked like. Really odd. And again...how the fuck did no one die?

indication that those lap belts actually work.

assuming those that were injured were on the side of the plane that rolled to the ground first.
