lol at the idea that there's been a shred of difference between republican and democratic economic policies since 1980 (at least until the trump bozos arrived to bring back mercantilism or whatever) oh wait it's the "hillary is a once in a generation political genius because she was head of the young republicans at her high school" guy saying it I'm Crap fucked around with this message at 15:34 on Mar 24, 2017 |

Give him 20 years of honking truck horns while nothing he tries to legislate passes Worst president ever? Oh come on. He hasn't allowed a terrorist attack and used a false pretense to spend trillions on a war that has made the entire region less stable an us citizens less safe while also creating a Goverment agency to spy on everyone while lying to the public about the depths of the spying and turning a blind eye to a huge mortgage scandal. All he's done so far is say some dumb stuff.

It's hosed as hell, but I was thinking earlier that Trump is such a colossal idiot and embarrassment that he actually makes me pine for the days of Dubya. Jesus Christ. I at least think that Dubya was probably a decent guy. Just really, really stupid. I'd have a drink with him. Obama, too.

Where was I, oh right, saying things like this doesn't really make you look any better than the people doing this to Obama. The only reason for it is "HES THE BAD GUY  " Trump has done some dumb things but there hasn't even been time to figure out how dumb and how bad they are going to be. Most of his evil deeds are still waiting to be enacted. I know the response is going to be "It's not because he is the bad guy! Here is an executive order! Incestual Pedophilia! Piss tape! Russia!!!!!!" But very little of that is proven to have happened yet. I'm not saying any of it didn't happen, just we don't know. Most of his poo poo is still talk, which he will probably get around to passing and earn the title of worst president ever but he hasn't yet. You are comparing a buffoon that has done very little actual legislation yet but you really really really don't like to someone like Bush who wasted trillions on wars, has a death toll in the tens or hundreds of thousands from those unnecessary wars including thousands of soldiers, publicly lied to everyone about it, passed the patriot act, let 9/11 happen despite being forewarned and had the economy completely fall apart on his way out the door. Also the blatant war profiteering at the highest levels of his cabinet and one hundred other things that aren't on the tip of my tongue right now. He and Cheney should literally be charged with war crimes. Nope the gigantic idiot that has signed some orders over the span of 8 weeks and not much else is literally the worst president ever because you don't like him.

Trump's first few months in office are a pretty glaring example that the only time he's been able to succeed at anything it's been because he can bully and take advantage of people with no recourse. He's utterly powerless and impotent against any sort of real checks and balance system that he can't game

Space Crabs posted:I actually kinda agree with this besides the perception - which is reality in politics, blah blah - surely there's some point where you can predict things and say they'll be bad rather than waiting for trump to get his short little fingers in them and actually gently caress them up. like, anyone with eyes in their head coulda told you this health care nonsense going on right now would be a shitshow back on november 9th. or, heck, that he'd be classless and throwing baby tantrums; people predicted that poo poo the day he went down the escalator, and shocker, they're right. I mean, this is basic pattern recognition. why do we have to wait for the fire to burn down the building and die before we can say it's awful, when we can see plain as day that the flames are already devouring the curtains? SpaceGoatFarts posted:He's the worst president ever because he's classless and throws baby tantrums in a country where public image is everything. every day I am awed that if our fascists had even a drop of competence in them we'd be goose-stepping by now, but instead a tiny kernel of false hope gleams off of the polished smoothness of donald's brain

We should be extremely grateful we got a blowhard idiot with big ideas to gently caress the poor rather than a cunning insider with big ideas to gently caress the poor Jumping the gun and saying he's worse than all the rest because you anticipate he'll be worse is, uh, dumb Toadvine fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Mar 24, 2017 |
