    So an anonymous blog on an unknown website is a riposte to reportage on CNN, ABC AP, Reuters, Fox, WP, NYT? Okie dokie.

    He’ll be using QAnon as a source next.

    "Trump's disdain for Obama was so extreme that he took his fixation a step further, according to Cohen: Trump hired a "Faux-Bama" to participate in a video in which Trump "ritualistically belittled the first black president and then fired him." "

    Considering the blogger was anonymous, he may already have.

    This week's month's Trump book. He seems to do wonders for the American publishing industry.

    I consider the "losers" story an act of desperation. Trump made massive gains this week then the story drops, what a coincidence.

    He didn't make massive gains and there is literal video of him calling McCain a loser and that he likes people who didn't get captured. Actual video!

    It's true. The guy is obsessed with Obama. Listen to the criticisms he has for Obama. Each one could be against himself:

    What you consider is meaningless. It's true, there's more proof of it coming out today.

    You'd have to wonder what was going thro the actors head as he sat across from Trump.

    He's not right in the head.

    Same........91% top marginal tax rate!

    Thats almost as bad as slavery, barbaric.

    And before anyone starts i dont mean specifically black american slavery, 100% taxation is literally slavery.

    Im pleased to see how many people can see past their own views to see how Raegan Was an admirable character.

    Definitely was the greatest US president in my book. We could use another Raegan.

    And before Chameleon or Cartman leaps in to claim there no proof of that, here's the video. May god have mercy on your brain cells. Suspect the Trump fan base will love it.

    Screams of some staffers ‘brilliant’ :rolleyes: idea for a campaign meme video , its cringey as hell, but sure thats american politics for you


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,482 ✭✭✭Kidchameleon


    Is that video made by Trump or is it a "fan edit" kind of thing?

    It was originally supposed to air at the Republican convention in 2012. So entirely real.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,606 ✭✭✭✭Igotadose


    I don't know if "Sure, I said most of the things but not the worst one" is the best approach here. It shows massive contempt for all those loyal defenders who put their credibility on the line insisting that Dear Leader would never do such a thing despite him doing it on

    Best line from the Fox reporter: "My sources are unimpeachable."

    Democrats / the left really scraping the barrel with this Trump doesn't care about Veterans nonsense. Sure they tried it a few years ago when politically motivated prosecutors harassed him over his charity work and thy then misrepresented the court's findings to make him look like a thief when in reality he had been raising money for vets over the years.

    The truth, as ever, is far different and while of course Trump has said a few ill advised things about McCain and Obama with regards to war and the military, it's always been quite clear he has more respect in his little finger for the military than either of those men had in their whole body and yes I am aware of McCain's service.

    Just saying he was great isn't a debate. I laid out quite clearly why I don't like him. What was so great about him in your opinion?

    If he respects them, why did he call them losers? Because he definitely did.

    Deregulation , lowering of taxes, embracing to the furthest extent thats realistic the free market, tough on crime , oversaw the end of the soviet union and aiding freedom being brought about from the shackles of oppression, fiercely anti communist, his second term he was only something like 1000 votes shy in one state from having every single state go red,

    A well loved president who truly embodied allowing the american dream to flourish for the small business owner.

    I just had to post this with insane Hillary Clinton rambling on about Russia. Her husbands facial expressions though :D:D

    Net Zero means we are paying for the destruction of our economy and society in pursuit of an unachievable and pointless policy.

    What could be more respectful to troops than bringing them home to their family's. The left cannot stand that he is the PEACE PRESIDENT. Any old crap to smear him, nobody really believes it.

    Te Republicans/Right had an absolute meltdown when Obama had the temerity to salute a marine while holding a coffee cup



    But Trump describes American soldiers killed fighting the Nazis as "losers and suckers" and his zealots jump to his defence lol.

    TDS is alive and well in you all.

    No US president now or ever cares about US troops.

    Top marginal rate.


    In today's dollars, Eisenhower's 91% rate would kick in only on income earned over $3.5m.

    Every tax above 49.9% is closer to slavery than the free market, even if it kicked in at a billion 91% is barbaric and oppressive.

    I find that hysterically over the top.


    The free market wasn't gonna build the Interstate Highway System.

    That story about him hiring an Obama lookalike and then "firing" him is one of the saddest things I think I've ever read about Trump. And that's saying something.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,117 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2

    Agreed.


    Trump is an abomination, and he has been way to hawkish for my liking, but America needs to have a serious grown up debate about the American military and how they are sent to pointless wars which never end.

    The most concerning element of Biden for me is his foreign policy, the man is cheered on by the architects of the Iraq war and looks like he will be surrounded by hawks like Rice.

    Obama we can agree was a much better president than the current yoke, but his biggest flaw was his hawkish leanings. Luckily for him mainstream media don't give a **** about foreign wars whatsoever.

    The current story about what Trump said or didn't about the troops can be put to bed once for all once one of those people who were in the room come forward and tell their story. Then even the most fanatical Trumper can't deny it.

    Why none haven't though is a mystery,,,their is nothing to lose,,,, the person would swim in money if they did, MSNBC slots galore and probable book deal *lol at the "libs" who bought Bolton's book).
