Current Affairs Donald Trump POS: Judgement cometh and that right soon

[DanEFC92]

As a Bernie fan, I don't think it was that straightforward. They would've hammered him as a 'commie' - A very dirty word to Americans. A poll last year by Gallup showed only 35% of Americans see socialism as a good thing compared to 60% for capitalism. Even among Democrats, socialism polled at only 58% positive. Trump would use the scare tactic that Bernie wanted to take all their money and give it to poor and unemployed people - and we all know poor people are lazy, right?

There's also the financing issue. Would Bernie have been able to keep up with Trump's campaign spend without turning to alternative revenue sources? His money was running dangerously low in May 2016. Could small donations have carried a run at the presidency? I'm not sure.

I don't think anyone could say with certainty that Bernie would've walked it.

Also, don't know whether or not, when it came down to crunch time, wikileaks, etc would have tried to smear his campaign as much as possible. There was a wee controversy over his wife being under investigation, etc.

It's already boiled down as much as it can be on twitter. Just read it there.

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) appeared to heap more criticism on President Donald Trump during an interview on Sunday, saying it was “wrong” for high-income Americans to dodge the draft during the Vietnam War.

“One aspect of the conflict, by the way, that I will never ever countenance is that we drafted the lowest income level of America and the highest income level found a doctor that would say that they had a bone spur,” McCain said during a segment on the draft that aired on C-SPAN 3 on Sunday. “That is wrong. That is wrong. If we’re going to ask every American to serve, every American should serve.”

I don’t, or at least I didn’t think I did. However he isn’t always wrong, I think his high risk strategy against N Korea will pay dividends. Mostly he is a fool and it’s fine for everyone to have a go at him, but no one is always wrong. Just trying to bring a bit of balance. It’s easy just to denigrate everything he says or does. I cannot stand Obama, but even he said or did the right thing every now and again.......

Your issues with Obama were likely down to his politics. What did he ever do to denigrate the office or fan the flames of hatred in America the way this buffoon does on virtually a daily basis?

I guess Pete thinks he doing a good job and deserves a break because of the following,

He is constantly looking for pats on the back, constant need for attention and positive reviews like its a TV show,
Attacking just about everyone on twitter like a 12 year old, including gold star families, veterans, Actors, sports stars, his own party and foreign leaders also. No one is off limits to this guy. Constantly in a spat with someone.
Not accomplish anything and not being able to get his own party to pass something, Not even understanding healthcare or taxes and expecting them to pass.
Outright lying and saying he has proof he didn't, even though he doesn't and that's a lie. That's embarrassing. People get picked apart in this very forum for being constant bs artists but its ok for the Potus the leader of the free world to be bad at at it and constantly be picked apart because of it.
Refusing to admit some of his people are in cahoots with Russia and now i see he wants to pay for their defense. That's ethical right?
Not understanding the freedom of the press saying they all lie and wanting regulations on them.

Tell me Pete what other US president acted like this? All politician's and Presidents make mistakes and say stupid things but to compare this buffoon to any of the last 4 is insane.

They accomplished things. They got things done and they treated the office and the constitution with respect.

They also didn't spend their days getting into fights with people online.

They actually knew stuff they were supposed to know and look composed in front of the mic and were able to deliver a message even George W was able to do that.

I'm sorry but when it comes to American politics, I think Pete is just winding people up. I'm interested in his opinion on Brexit but he completely devalues it with his clueless ramblings on this thread, sorry Pete.

I doubt the Republicans would have been able to think of a line of attack that the Clintons hadn't already tried

Republicans might not have been able but I think Trump would have.

in terms of malevolent delusion, bloodlust, imperial dick-waggling, wanton slaughter, and lasting irrevocable moral, political, and strategic damage, Trump is still in the lower leagues compared to Bush II's Manchester United.

nor Trump could have existed without Bush's annihilation of public trust.

how soon we forget...

Yes, that’s what I believe.

The Trump team would have went to town and labelled him a Red and that would have sunk him IMO

That cant be true?
