Reasons Dumbass Drumpf got elected:

1) James Comey's incredibly biased political maneuvering right before the election
2) The inability for many Americans to vote for ANY WOMAN as President, especially immediately following a black man.
3) HRC's absolutely awful political campaign strategy - completely ignoring battleground states
4) Dumbdumb fear mongering - appealing to the basest emotions among us.
5) Deft yet idiotic political maneuvering by the right - "Fake News," which is not in and of itself real.
6) HRC's lack of ability to connect with her audience.
7) General Clinton fatigue


Did I miss anything?

Wow. You actually missed a lot. Like reality.

Trump got elected because Americans we're sick and tired of corrupted talking point politicians. Case and point,,, the hypocrisy we now see in the democratic party. When Obama was in office they wanted a wall. Now when a Republican takes office it suddenly becomes inhumane. It amazes me that they are never questioned about this flip flopping by their loyal followers, and im speaking about both party's. These politicians only want their party to "win" and care nothing about bettering the life of you and me of any race. "Enter Trump"... a non politician or member of the corrupt political swamp. He may be from another swamp but the swamp that is in Washington cannot stand to see the water being drained by an outsider, and this is why they have hate for the man... and since the Democratic party hates him so... so must their loyal followers... and nothing he does can ever be praised.. only denouncements and failures can only grab the spot light. This is why the democratic party is endorsing these radical ideas like the green deal when they know how idiotic the rationalization of it really is... they simply can't denounce their own party for many reasons. it's sad our loyal party's cannot work together anymore.... I know I know... it'a all Trumps fault... blah blah blah

Nah,,, He won by none of those silly talking points that I saw just above. He won because he spoke against what I just touched on above.

Again the point was Clinton was impeached about an issue that had nothing to do with the initial investigation. Again an investigation goes where the evidence takes it, that is basic law enforcement. It exposed that piece of shit Paul Manafort who deserves everything that is coming to him. As a tax payer I would think you would feel the same way.

While Manafort and even Trump May deserve whatever punishment, they also deserve their rights. If the government can look through their lives in search for a crime, they can do that to us.

Are you worried about what kinds of things all politicians say over hot mics, or just democrats?

Just curouus of where your hypocrisy ends.

Trump wasn’t a politician. Trump wasn’t talking to the Russians about political matters. There is no hypocrisy. TBH, that statement never really bothered me from Obama. I was simply pointing out that is the very definition of colluding.

This is exactly my problem with this whole mess. Let's say the local police chief doesn't like you. Would you be OK if he just sent a few cops to your house to look around? They come in, they search they snoop. This is what Congress is now doing with Trump. Why, exactly, do they want his tax returns? Is there a specific crime they are believe he has committed? No, they are just hoping they can uncover some dirt. That just ain't right. IF one person's rights are violated, then all of our rights are in jeopardy.

I would say just about every white nationalist in this country, and most if not all voted for and support Trump.

Right. I don't disagree. But that doesn't actually support your argument.

 

[Toadman005]

Completely and utterly ridiculous.

Nonsensical.

Nah, it's true, but by all means bury your head in the sand when it comes to any criticism of your messiah.

The guy that organized Charlottesville was an Obama supporter and occupy Wall Street guy . The litany of black face stuff are from Democrats . Democratic state senator from Maryland talking about N counties . Obama a known associate of Louis Farrakhan and rev Wright , 2. Known anti semites . Do I need to go on ? Do we need to talk about al sharpton or Jesse ? And let’s talk about numbers . There is at most 50000 white nationalist / racist. Members . Hardly a voting block worth giving a damn about . Ronald Reagan once said that David Duke may have embraced his philosophy but that doesn’t mean reagon embraced his . I didn’t even mention AOC ,Omar , tailida or Ellison for their racist views either ( anti Semite )

NO sir, you have proven long ago that your level of whataboutism wizardy knows no equal. I have never said or claimed that there are not in fact racists on both sides of the isle. BUt at the present time the majority of them seem to be supporters of our current Potus.

Again I put out names . And if you want to call out one party for racism from a minuscule amount of people with no power then I will bring out the other side. Conservatives are not socialists and if you research these leaders you will find they are socialist and there is only one party advocating that

Add to it that those names ARE in power that I named above

We estimate 80,000 migrant women were raped or coerced into sex during 2018, rising to 103,000 on higher migrant numbers in 2019,” said a statement from Steven Kopits, president of Princeton Policy Advisors.

The open border crowd endorses this and allows it to go on

Bull.

The vast majority of white supremacists support Trump. The vast majority of racists do not. You are incapable of recognizing that.

I understand and agree,. While you believe they were in search of crimes to me it appears as if you are in search of a reason to discredit the investigation. Mueller came into this with impeccable credentials. Even Lindsay Graham, the biggest Trump guy on the hill, agreed with this assessment. Pretty far fetched to believe he suddenly became dirty with the whole world watching. No he would make sure everything was done legally.

The people who tend to lump all Muslims as radicals, the group that implies illegals are criminals tend to be Trump folks. Then we have Juice, a guy who didn't even try to hide his racism and only stopped when the new board rules neutered him.

Wait, people that want safety and border security tend to support Trump? Shocker.

And, aliens trying to enter illegally are breaking the law.

Notice the pic of Obama the press suppressed during his tenure

It's incredible this is being allowed. Found nothing on the Russian collusion (2 1/2 years wasted with it) so keep digging boys tell you find something and then lets oust this dude from office. Why can't this happen to the next republican who wins office... or the next. The ticky tac BS only stops when a democrat gets back in office... that some BS right there. Had this been done to Clinton or Obama theyd been a civil war. Never mind the fact that they too would have had dirt found (quite a bit actually) and ousted. When do we as a people stand up for rights given and demand to let this dude run the country as president that he rightfully won. Fuck this democratic witch hunt already. Get over it Demmy's!!

Jeff Sessions recused himself because he supported Trump. Mueller should have recused himself because of his relationship with Comey.

Jeff Sessions recused himself because he supported Trump. Mueller should have recused himself because of his relationship with Comey.

If thats the logic, then Trump should not have been allowed to

1. Install a SCOTUS who might have to rule on a case directly involving him
2. Name an acting, or actual AG who would be directly over seeing an investigation that might directly involve him or his children.
