POLITICAL THREAD

DC is not an invitation only party, you insufferable dunce. What does “invited to DC” even mean. I’ve been there a few times on visits, never was sent an invitation.

It was organized and initiated entirely by Trump dude.
It was not a spontaneous, grass roots gathering. He knew EXACTLY what he was doing. Lighting a match.....

Trump promises 'wild' protests in Washington, DC, on the day Congress is set to finalize election results

So why were tens of thousands of Trump supporters even at the Capitol that day??
Who invited them there??
Who was the main speaker??
Why the F was there even a rally on a day designed soley to carry out a formal Constitutional act??

Again....Why were they there, who invited them and who was the headline speaker?
Facts dude. Pure facts.
You're in a cult.

There were lots of speakers there that day.

Again, you don’t get to decide or even get to like the reason for rallies or protest. I know you and your like would change that, but for now…that’s still how the country is supposed to work.

That's not my point.
Trump is responsible for everything that happened on that totally embarrassing day in American history.
There was no other reason or purpose of that rally except to sow chaos and incite violence.
He knew exactly what he was doing....then sat for f'ing hours in the White House watching it on tv....doing absolutely NOTHING to stop it.

POS has zero business ever being given the keys to the Oval Office again.

What's the over/under on the amount of amphetamines "Jacked Up Joe" took before SOTU last night?

POS has zero business ever being given the keys to the Oval Office again.

His primary source of communication to his supporters that day was Twitter.

His tweets telling the crowd to remain peaceful and respect the police were censored and deleted by Twitter/feds in real time. Why would they do this? Wouldn’t they want that message to get out?

Use just a smidgeon of logic here. They wanted people like you to come to the exact conclusion you did.

 

[UPSCat4080]

The main thing I dislike is just pure partisan reactions lol.

Biden makes his speech last night
Democrats are clapping and saying he is so inspiring
Republicans are sitting shaking their heads saying he is being divisive

Trump makes the same speech that Biden made last night but toward the Dems
Republicans would be clapping saying he is so inspiring
Democrats would be sitting shaking their heads saying he is being divisive

Its always been that way and always will regardless of who is in the position and who is right or wrong and that's sad. To me Biden used the SOTU last night to campaign and not be a President for all and I honestly would say that if Trump had made the same speech. I wish our leaders would just quit the BS and do what's best for our country.

You left out one glaring point....Trump wouldn't make the same speech. He cares about the border, illegal immigration, right to life, etc.


Otherwise, great post. #SMH

Whether he would or wouldn't isn't the point. Its that regardless what any of them say their own side will fawn over them and the opposite side will think they are the worst ever. It gets worse and worse with each passing day on both sides.

Speaking of being taxed to death, love the trendy con politicians are using now in the penny tax. First they tell you they need a gas tax to fix roads and then they need a penny tax to fix the roads that they never fixed with the gas tax.

Britt’s rebuttal was way too forced. Wasn’t impressed. Nowhere near ready for prime time and especially a VP candidate.

With more electric cars no paying the tax and better gas mileage lessening the revenue from the tax, it may not be a reliable revenue source to cover expenses, especially when our government spends a ton of money on things government doesn’t need to involve itself. Also, it all of that money goes to its stated cause.

I have to agree that none of them care about you and me in anyway other than our vote. They are all in it for their own benefit and self interest.

And obviously Trump wouldn't make the same speech. I meant if he made the same style of speech but replaced all of the Dem talking points with Republican talking points the reactions would be 100% reversed on each side. Someone isn't right just because they have the same letter beside their name that you do. That is what aggravates me about the entire political spectrum.

Can’t wait until next month when it‘s revised down a ton, like most months have been over the past year.

It’s almost like the initial number is being inflated on purpose or something…..

Who knew that Creepy Joe was responsible for all the great things that has happened in the last 3+ years and none of the bad things.

Most who voted for Biden have issues with him too.
Things he got wrong....
**I think the Afghanistan withdrawal was a hot mess.
**I think his handling of the border for the last 3 years is a hot mess.
**I think his proposal last night to give 400 bucks a month to prospective homebuyers is asinine and he knows it. Just throwing it out there for fools to believe.

Things he got right.....
**He is 100 percent right on Ukraine
**His handling of transition from Covid to non Covid American economy
**His handling of the UAW picket line
**His handling of the economy/ interest rates and inflation reduction kept us from a hard landing and recession (High inflation was coming after Covid regardless of who was President)
**His handling of Israel/Gaza has been acceptable but not transformational
**His handling of private/public partnership in manufacturing computer chips
**His handling of infrastructure $$$$ given out to states for bridges/roads etc.

I did find it funny he talked about how he had brought down inflation from 9% to 3.1% but he failed to mention it went from 1.4% when he took office to that 9%.

Seems like there would have been easier ways to rile people up other than telling them they need to stay peaceful.

Just to be clear, you just posted February jobs numbers in an attempt to spike the football, while virtually every single month has been revised down after the fact, and you’re calling other people gullible?

 

[sambowieshin]

You're leaving out the months leading up to that rally and all of his surrogates echoing his calls for election justice on social media.
Months that he said the election was stolen....even before the election took place.
Months he claimed Republican voters were cheated or will be cheated.
Countless speakers preceding him that day calling for retribution and "Trial by Combat".

You can't do all of that, say you gotta "Fight like Hell to get your country back" then throw in the word "peacefully" at the last second before telling the crowd to walk down to the Capitol "with you" to see whether or not VP Pence has the balls to overturn the election certification.

C'mon man.

That crowd fully expected Pence to do that and then see Trump leading the charge up those Capitol steps to be put back in charge.
Sadly those Americans truly believed they were patriots fighting for freedom and their votes.
It was ALL BS lies.
He is a master manipulator right up there with the worst actors in world history.

Can't post March numbers before March is complete. That's how that works. Its always the previous month's final numbers.

If Trump telling people to peacefully protest was manipulating them to fire them up miles away, so you also think it’s important to figure out how many federal agents and employees were inciting the crowd at the actual Capitol?

No shit you dunce. Are you aware January’s numbers were revised down significantly? As virtually every other month has been? As February will be in a month.


I’m actually curious if you know about the downward revisions or if I’m educating you.

Have I ever said you should take immigrants into your house? I prefer actual solutions to empty rhetoric. Y’all just try to throw out gotchas with no substance.

 

[Dionysus444]

Why is it ok for democrats to gather in protest but not republicans? Democrats are the cult, you all agree on everything, republicans have disagreements on a lot of things. Might want to learn what a cult is. Hint: your in one!!!!!

Protesting is fine, interfering with the counting of Electoral College votes is not. That should be obvious.

 

[JumperJack]

Has any president who lost an election ever held a rage fueled rally on election certification day in US history??????

You're in a cult.

Everyone, the educator is concerned about rallies after the election is over and about cults.

Let’s set aside that there was or was not election meddling for a sec….you think a party claiming they got jobbed is something new?

Do you need links to Hillary, democrats, and her supporters from 2016 to be posted? You need links of the riots from 2016?

 

[TopCatCal]

I’ll wait for the revised report next month.

I saw somewhere where that the December 2023 and the January 2024 job numbers have been revised down by something like 168,000 jobs. It's strange that pretty much every month that Biden has been in office that the jobs numbers are over reported by such large numbers every month. When this happens month after month after month, this is intentional.

 

[Marleydogg]

Who invited the mob to DC on Jan 6th?
Who told them their votes didn't count?
Who told them Pence could overturn the election?
Who told the angry crowd to follow him to the Capitol on Jan 6th?
Who created a FAKE slate of electors?
Who called Ga election officials and asked them to overturn the election results even if the votes don't show that?
Who sent people to Ga to harvest voting machine data?
Why hold a massive rally on that day to begin with?? What was the damn purpose when THE ELECTION WAS OVER.
Trump is a clear and present danger to democracy and America.
Any Presidential candidate that invites Putin to attack NATO should be in jail where he belongs.

Who is the absolute dumbest poster here? WHO IS??

 

[Bill Cosby]

Also, if anyone had any doubts, last night was a shining example of why Joe Biden and the democrats need to be as far away as possible from tax reform in 2025.

“Yeah I’m going to start a moronic shrinkflation commission to combat corporate greed while also raising their taxes because I’m too stupid to realize those costs are passed on.”
