I mean, come on people, you see the irony here: The people who like to complain about a lack "traditional values", "Christian values" and want to "make America great again" went off and elected a thrice married, serial adulterer (Jesus had some words on that) who is a crooked business than with a long record of cheating poor people (something about a camel through the eye of a needle) who made promises to get rid of a government sponsored health care and keep throwing people unnecessarily into prisons ("I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.") And I of all people, don't think it matters if Trump attends Church, because it has zero bearing on his ability to steer the ship of state and he's never claimed that in who he is. I think he is doing a terrible job regardless, but we really shouldn't be making any deal about his Church visits. ...why, yes, that is a surprisingly accurate depiction of "values voters". How astute of you.

Ok, I am confused. I am actually trying be serious now. You asked, "what does it matter as to why "values voters" went for Trump when he absolutely does not embody the so called "values" they share" My, mostly sarcastic replies, have been: Because they throw small tantrums when other people don't. They scream about how oppressed their voices are because someone got to put up a Mennorah at city hall along with a Christmas tree, or when Satanists got to submit coloring books along with their own, and how Starbucks cups are a different color, or that college campuses are dens of sin because they teach other ideas other than Christian philosophy, or a public school teaches modern scientific theory and that's an assault on the home. And the normal people have been expected to nod their heads, grit their teeth and force a fake smile, hoping that these idiots die off or go completely senile before they can do much more damage. So when they completely ignore all the faults that they normally constantly cannot stop whining and moaning about, because that person let's them impose their way, of course non-crazy people are going to call them out on their BS. Cool story bro. It would matter more if whatever you pray to existed, but I appreciate the thought. I'm a little surprised. I thought you'd think I was hip for speaking your lingo. My moral compass is just fine. You're the idiots who constantly B word, whine and moan about how oppressed you are, while complaining about "snowflakes" and the irony is just too rich not to enjoy.

No, I'm answering you Well the simple answer "what point does it make" is that the "basket of deplorables" as you phrased it, seem to be NPC cucks who like watching DJT ream out traditional values because it really get them off to screw over other people. And boy, do they trigger. "OH MY GOD, YOU SAID HAPPY HOLIDAYS INSTEAD OF MERRY CHRISTMAS, I NEED MY SAFE SPACE, WAAAAAA!" PS: Sorry, I'm trying to use up all the 4chan before boyst and Tasker get here. EDIT: And Rhino! How can I forget the 4channer in chief?

Well, I wouldn't really care if they kept to themselves, but they keep throwing little S**t fits about how they're oppressed, so they decide to put kleptocrats in charge to make them feel better and that causes problems for normal people. What a bunch of triggered snowflakes.

Yeah, they can swallow a XXXL extra nubbly rubber, latex or silicone based marital aid. Let's be honest, for a long time "family values" has been the fig leaf for "Other people are doing different things, and the fact that they're not my thing makes me uncomfortable. It's better to punish them for not being like me rather than me to become comfortable with this broadening of my perspective"

Have we yet mentioned today that they were Democrats, and completely forget the historical context of the Republican party being the progressives at least through Teddy Roosevelt, only to have TR split the Progressive party away from the Republican party in the election of 1912.

Look, I am hardly Trump's biggest fan. But I don't care about whether he attends church. In fact, I am adamant that it doesn't matter. We are, in fact, Constitutionally prohibited from having religious tests for any federal position, and I think that's a good thing, because it then legitimizes all the pearl clutchers and "Obama is a secret Muslim" morons. Trump has never run with he himself professing Christian values, pretty much keeping his dog whistles to "You can't say Merry Christmas anymore", so I can't even say that he's hypocritical about it. Sadly, I can't say the same thing for all the bible thumpers who support him. They need a serious "splinter in the eye" moment.

One of my favorite sports figures in Philly loved Baldy. That's a nice breakdown to see!

I'm glad to have the Bills as underdogs here for two reasons: A) It keeps them hungry for victory while the oddsmakers take them lightly. B) I live in NJ, and that is a sweet, fat line to gamble on

Thanks for the writeup! Seriously, I think my draft plan for next year is this: 1st round: Best Available WR or OL 2nd round: Rinse and repeat 3rd round: What did I just say? (You get the picture)

I just saw this. I mean, I'm unsurprised, but he is hardly the only reason why the Jags look so inept on offense. If they don't have Fournette gift wrap games, or we go into Prevent defense, they couldn't do anything. It's Marrone strategy, all day.

To be fair, she reported it and the fed recommended an investigation that...just never got followed up on. And yes, thay should have happened to Hillary. Wanting transparency and accountability means not letting the people you might often agree with slide when they screw up I'm sorry, I completely missed the Congressional investigation that occurred when this was first reported. When did that happen again? *crickets*

Oh no. I am totally cool with Hillary being exposed as a shady politician. I want shady politicians gone. Let's hold the current administration to at least the same standard of rigor, never mind all the previous nepotism claims that arose in the tariff exemptions for Ivanka's handbags made in China. Speaking of which, wasn't China a currency manipulator? ?

Thhaaaaaaaat she had Top Secret clearance, and using personal email has all the security flaws inherent in personal email as opposed to a secure government account, and there was a risk of a data breach. . I will give her credit that she stopped and reported it when she realized she had screwed up, but let's not forget: Clinton got raked over the coals, and rightfully so, and it turned out nothing happened. And you RebTards still keep harping on "Crooked Hillary" So when the shoe in on the other foot, you trip over yourselves to explain it away? Do you realize how stupid you look?

I wanted to make sure the information was accurate...which I don't notice you denying or disputing. ? I answered your question, didn't I? One, really, that's the best derogatory nickname you could come up with? Jeez, put in some effort you phonetically challenged hillbilly. Two, like I previously wrote (and you ignored):

"Advisor" to the president. She had fullTop Secret clearance: https://www.axios.com/ivanka-trump-security-clearance-status-jared-kushner-f0ff4333-3665-4778-9c35-ba10bae55d94.html This means she has access to foreign intelligence and the president's daily intelligence briefing Oh come on, I know that it's not going to lead to anything. I personally doubt anything of significance happened, and I would be shocked if there are any actually repercussions. I just like to mention it because of the raging shitstorm that people on this board rained on Hillary Clinton for doing pretty much the exact same thing. I thought it was a nothing issue then, and I think it's a nothing issue now, but the hypocrisy is shocking. Everyone knows that rich people don't clean their own things.

I find it hilarious that these knuckleheads decide to keeping posting the NPC meme and calling people they don't like "NPC's". And yet, they are copying and pasting from 4chan, keep to simple (incorrect) answers, and have the same talking points. Irony is lost upon them. They think it's the next country ISIS takes (after I-raq, I-ran, those secret muslims must be coming from I-rony) ?

Wow...none of you have ever taken a job before you had new housing lined up? Some people must have never moved for work.

I like the idea that we spent more than a passing moment to determine whether or not we were going to promote a sexual assaulter to the higher court of the land in a rushed effort to make sure a Republican led Senate was kept. That she was questioned for four hours to relieve the worst day of her life, to have them question its validity, to try to smear her as being a pawn in a conspiracy, to have them try to question a psychology professor on how traumatic memories are remembered, to have them grill her over a fear of flying. I then watched when it was Kavanaugh's turn, the prosecutor brought on to keep questioning impartial was sent away, and Senators spent their time talking about how terrible it was that they had to be here. And even then, Kavanaugh couldn't hold off being a petulant man baby. And this made you...support them more? It's funny, you calling me an npc, because clearly it's you who are glitching, getting in people's way and not having a single original thought. It turns out, the majority of people in this country believe me. You're losing. The country is getting younger, and your lunacy has ended apathy to record turnouts.

It's funny, I had the same reaction, but for a completely different party

Look, if it wasn't clear to you that this year would be a step back, I don't know what to tell you. I didn't think it would be this bad, but this year was always about getting rid of dead cap and seeing what we had for 2019. I was actually impressed with some of Daboll's playcalling, but he's handcuffed by some truly awful QB play in Peterson and Anderson.

You know, I seem to notice that...no one who seems offended is disputing that Bolosaro has a record of anti-Democratic principles, advocated that the military murder people, or that he has publically stated that he wants the police killing more people. No, instead it's just insulting me, and making up some random personal anecdote about how "the left doesn't think democracy works" and "he says something I don't like, let's compare him to a journalist I don't like and therefore he's just a drone" You can't actually refute me, so you like to stroke yourselves to not feel quite so small.

It kind of is! "Today I learned that the reason why DR, 3rdnlong and Koko seem to say deranged things is because they like fascist dictatorships. That's why democracy, representation of the people and not brutally killing people who disagree with you seems like such a crazy idea to them!"
