So, Trump eh?

I just got back from a 3.5 week trip to Europe.  Whatever they're doing over there, it's working pretty f*cking great.  No matter what Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity are telling you.

Never listend to Rush, and f*cking hate Hannity. Thanks.

I think we all agree on wanting America "great again". But we will have to concede that we will never accept each others' vision for how that will happen.

I agree, which is why these types of threads are pretty useless in a gaming forum.

Socialism works only if you reduce the standard of living for everyone.

Back that up with substance. Not just a bumper-sticker slogan.

Why should I have to give up my 10 acres and mcmansion because you need social services?

America.

Sap the working folks to carry the rest.

Been living in a semi socialist country for the last 33 &3/4 years.
I suspect I have a different view of what socialism is to a lot of you.
Say if someone had a grave medical condition that made their premium so high and they could not work to pay it. Do I mind my tax monies contributing towards their wellbeing and hopefully some standard of living? No I do not.
Every basic human necessity should be run collectively & not for profit. There is plenty of money in the world for all. It is a human fallacy that a wealth generator is more important than anyone else.

Funny how the so many of the citizens who claim that the USA is a "Christian country" and that they are "followers of Jesus" disagree with this.

I don't know what the hell Jesus has to do with this... I'm an atheist, agnostic at best.

Regarding wildfruits comment.... I agree, I have no problem with tax money going to pay for those unable to pay for healthcare. Instead of taxing me more, how about put the tax money you already collect to better use. Stop sending billions overseas and stop bailing out rich banksters that screwed themselves

Also, stop with the open borders which allow hundreds of thousands of people to enter illegally and further burden the system.

Wasn't referring to you, specifically. But there are many people that I know personally who are self-proclaimed Christians but don't seem to have a bit of empathy and "WWJD" is just a fun slogan they can put on a bracelet.

I'm up in Canada and my family doesn't pay a goddamned thing for health care. I wouldn't say our wellbeing has been compromised in anyway, and I certainly don't have a problem paying taxes to make sure people are looked after, the roads are repaired and kids receive a decent education.

I worry for my American friends who are going to lose their health care, it's no way to live as a human being. It's not a left or right thing, it's about not being an a$$hole and looking after others. When I visit the USA, there's an aura of desperation that I don't feel in Canada, Europe or Oceania. I don't blame people, being one misfortunate accident away from bankruptcy or foreclosure.

I think Trump has truly duped people into believing that he'll actually look out for them. He is an egomaniacal billionaire, with an awful business record. He doesn't give a shit about your jobs, your border or your well-being. Being president is a hobby for him, something he can add to his list of achievements, and as if he wanted the job to begin with. He's filled the swamp with science denying billionaire pals who could give a f*ck about you, Zero-Gamer.

The next couple of weeks are going to be a political blood bath. When our ex-conservative prime minister cast doubts on his ability, I worry. Harper was a neoliberal, through and through. Trump doesn't have a clue what he's doing and I hope there's enough resistance down there to keep that shit-show in check.

I'm way to busy laughing to be hate'n. The stuff I read about this moron; his disillusioned narcism is entertaining (the inaugural stuff/rants were great. The CIA speech too). He's basically rich white trash - lol. I really do have to the thank the morons that voted him into office (you guys seriously are f*cking morons - to the core. You simply cannot defend a choice like that haha) - I'm going to enjoy watching all the f*cked up shit this guy does, while everyone looks on in disbelief. And all the while the dolts who put him there cheer him on. It's like some 80's british sitcom come to life. Our first lady is his third wife, and posed for nudes. This shit is awesome! Entropy *is* entertaining.

I have no problem with the fact that she posed nude... he just cannot really represent a strong family image while being married for the third time and having an idiot son who got busted funneling cash.

I laughed when this got pointed out to me; what would Fox News et all right wing media have said if Obama had given a campaign speech with 5 children from 3 different women behind him?

With as common as divorce is in our society, not sure why this even matters anymore.

This thread is exactly the same content as my thread that was moved to fighting street.

There's no need for multiple threads bitching about Trump.  Unless there's a specific policy you wish to discuss, don't make more.
