OCinBuffalo Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Talk about delusional. Here you go, in all its hysterical glory: https://newrepublic.com/article/144046/rot-republican-party-nearly-complete Yes, apparently in this child's addled mind "rot" == serious debate about an issue that effects every American. See, he is still operating under a pre-Trump mindset, which, is actually an extension of the pre-2010-2014 wave elections. Last time I checked: having the trifecta in 31 states(all branches are R), compared to only 6 for Ds, hardly spells "rot" for Rs. Neither does controlling all 3 Federal branches. You wanna know what real rot looks like: consider the Ds laughable "new" policy roll-out which == "Better Ingredients, Better Pizza"...but FUBARed. Like I said on this very board all the way back in 2006: "You unmitigated morons are going to replace blue collar white workers, who will show up and vote, never mind stand in the rain around a fire barrel to support candidates...whith college professors, their students, identity groups, and trial lawyers? You're going to lose everything you've gained this year." I was right. They are still wrong. They did lose everything. They aren't going to win anything, and they are talking about...."rot"? Keep it up people, and Trump coasts in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 The voters loud and clear have supported Trump right through all the by-elections 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) The voters loud and clear have supported Trump right through all the by-elections 100%. Those by-elections would've turned out the same no matter who won the Presidency. Of course if Clinton had been prez you'd have said it was because of her and the country no longer supported her. Republicans won in republican strongholds, nothing more. Both parties are rotten though so the article was half right, just incomplete.

You are backing up that Congress is beloved by it's constituents, that the vast majority would not vote "SOMEBODY ELSE PLEASE" if given the choice?

Both parties are rotten though so the article was half right, just incomplete. Exactly. People are beginning to get that both parties don't give a $hit about the people as the US is turning into an oligarch. Evidence of this is congress's approval rating, people's lack of trust in the federal government at an all time low, and the rise of two populist candidates (Sanders and Trump) who preached in different ways of taking on the Washington establishment.

Tiberius Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Senator Jeff Flake has had enough of Trump and his ignorant followers it seems. As Flake sees it, We were party to a very big lie. Seemingly overnight, we became willing to roll back the ideas on the global economy that have given America the highest standard of living in history, he writes. We became willing to jettison the strategic alliances that have spared us global conflict since World War II. We gave in to powerful nativist impulses that have arisen in the face of fear and insecurity. We stopped speaking the language of freedom and started speaking the language of power. Reckless, outrageous and undignified behavior was excused and countenanced as telling it like it is, when it was actually just reckless, outrageous and undignified. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/paloma/daily-202/2017/08/02/daily-202-jeff-flake-delivers-the-most-courageous-conservative-rebuttal-of-trumpism-yet/59812c9b30fb045fdaef10a8/?hpid=hp_hp-more-top-stories_daily202-730a%3Ahomepage%2Fstory&utm_term=.7558cd68a9dc “Rather than fighting the populist wave that threatened to engulf us, rather than defending the enduring principles that were consonant with everything that we knew and had believed in, we pretended that the emperor wasn’t naked,” he adds. “Even worse: We checked our critical faculties at the door and pretended that the emperor was making sense. … It is a testament to just how far we fell in 2016 that to resist the fever and to stand up for conservatism seemed a radical act.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
