Iraq WAS better under Saddam, and Saddam WAS really good at killing terrorists... and dissidents... and Kurds... especially their women and children...

David Frum's convulsions over the last 4 years or so have been loving great. Almost as good as David Brooks longily staring at the whiskey bottle live on NPR

I highly doubt the house, the senate, or the supreme court would allow President Trump to do much let alone brand everyone as terrorists.

I'm starting to think more and more the RNC will actually be an intervention. Trump will walk in thinking it's all about lauding him, and he'll find everyone sitting in a circle with one chair open for Donald to sit at. Then they'll all explain to him how he's hurting everyone around him and he doesn't realise that he's out of control. It will all end with Donald storming out yelling "I can stop anytime I want!"

Hillary should just play that audio and show pictures of wounded and KIA OIF vets non stop between now and November. She'd get 538 electoral votes.

You need support of the other branches of government to pass bills, budgets, ect, he just cant executive order his way into deporting 11 million people, building a wall, or declaring war on the world. His own party hates his guts and unless he does the regular branded horrible poo poo they want he wont get anything done.

Remember this from last month? quote:Republican leaders say they are confident that Mr. Trump would respect the rule of law if elected. “He’ll have a White House counsel,” Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the majority leader, told Hugh Hewitt, the radio host, on Monday. “There will be others who point out there’s certain things you can do and you can’t do.” Joementum memorably said at the time that, even if Trump did listen to his White House Counsel, maybe we shouldn't elect a president who needs a babysitter.

i think i'm now convinced he's a plant. the timing of his outbursts and how they always hide hillary's mistakes are just too suspect. i hope i'm wrong, though. what would be even better is he actually isn't a plant, but at the end says he's a plant to save face. like completely disavowing his statements and dunking on the rnc and how this was all revenge. yet it actually wasn't. he just wants to save face and be loved/famous/lauded that much. he totally would give up his beliefs for that kind of attention

Jygallax posted:Trying to make Trump a Russian plant is dumb but there's no doubt at all that Putin desperately wants him to win. I think Putin would like Donnie to win, but at the same time, doesn't want to hitch his wagon too close. Trump's just too unpredictable, push him only a little too far, and he'll go ballistic. You need to constantly suck up to him, and he'll gush praise at you and call you a genius.

Nameless_Steve posted:Good thing President Hindenberg and the Reichstag were around to stop Hitler before he became anything more than Chancellor. The government of the United States is a lot stronger institutionally than the Weimar Republic, and last time I checked Trump didn't have a political party and a paramilitary force loyal to him. Trump can't even get members of his own party to show up to his big convention, hell the news that Scott Walker would be there is a big deal... I mean Scott Walker... Gross. E: Abel Wingnut posted:i think i'm now convinced he's a plant. the timing of his outbursts and how they always hide hillary's mistakes are just too suspect.
