Senate and congressional republicans are super loving stupid.

Like Americans are lurching around, blindly groping around for someone who makes a decent pretense of looking out for them. Ideology, social/moral norms are irrelevant. The electorate is just flailing around randonly until someone figures out that your reward for loving over the banks and delivering universal health care is massive popularity, unlimited power and complete legitimization of your ideology. This was the republicans chance and they're blowing it by being filled with incredibly petty morons.

Arguably Hillary throwing everyone under the bus when it was expedient while paying lip service to all those same people is what caused everyone to mistrust her so much. Maybe don't act like some Machiavellian wannabe and people might actually want to vote for you?

Trump didn't throw his closest allies under the bus, he threw people actively rallying against him but still on his side of the party lines under the bus. Trump not throwing Corey Lewandowski under the bus makes him look loyal once the facts of the story came out, while Hillary and the democrats letting DWS get fired upwards didn't help their image.

I mean the president of the united loving states would certainly be willing to do it most of the time, but I agree that that senators and congressmen should be way more invested in it. If they managed to get universal healthcare out, they'd steal a huge chunk of the democrat's voter base. "WE MADE UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE HAPPEN, NOW LOOK THE OTHER WAY WITH PIPELINE DEALS AND poo poo WHILE STILL VOTING FOR US BECAUSE HEY UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE IS PRETTY loving NIFTY".

I'm currently attending Rutgers U in NJ. The situation in the education system is dire, beyond hope. 

If you DARE to speak about your conservative values, you will be immediately branded a "racist, bigot, homophobe...." etc ad infinitum until you are forced to resign your values or drop the class. 

95% of the professors are liberal whiny fucks preaching anti-white hate. You can decide what that means but they are pushing the most communist/Marxist anti-American agenda I have ever seen. Anything American is BAD. ANYTHING African/Muslim is GOOD.

Every filler credit class is about white guilt and why whites should just kill themselves. The problem is that in order to fulfill the prerequisites, you must take one perhaps two filler classes like "African studies" "African American Music" or some other total nonsense bullshit class like that. And yes, you have to pay for it! 

I have observed that 99% of the SJW freaks can be described as follows:

1- FAT or obese

2- pierced 

3- tattooed

4- UGLY as gently caress

5- sexually abused, molested as child

6- sexually confused

7- LOW self-esteem 

8- limited reasoning ability, low intelligence 

9- dyed hair

10- bulldykes

11- beta cucks, skinny wimpy males with microdicks

12- 90% of all blacks

13- 50% of all Hispanic

14- 10% of all Asians

15- 95% of all Muslims

16- brainwashed, CNN cum drinking whores

17- poor, low income

18- any freaks of nature

19- mudsharks

20- single mother/father family background

Now, if you are like me, good looking, straight white male, highly intelligent, on partial scholarship or full scholarship, big ego but humble, middle class and up, may or may not be religious but conservative, you are enemy #1 on campus. 

I think the only solution is a good old fashioned culling which will occur automatically as the regressive leftist freaks of nature push ever deeper into the side of communism. 

I'm thinking about dropping out of school to pursue my own business but I think that there is no hope for America. My kind makes up less than 10% of the campus and that is being generous. I think we need to prepare for civil war because these freaks are leaving school with violence as their only option.

-Has beard and/or glasses

Yes, you definitely identified men in their 30s, gj. Let me tell you about these, uh, cuckOlds; they're men over the age of 65 who are obese, wrinkled, and have some kind of chronic problem that requires medication.

Yeah whoever wrote that has got some alienation going on. I see this Elliot Rodger type guy sitting in class, never says anything, quiet. He doesn't talk to anyone. After class he packs up his books and returns to his apartment and composes his maestro: "freaks of nature...blacks...mudsharks... the sexually abused... the only solution is a good old fashioned culling."

I have more thoughts on this than I'm willing to think through right at this second. But I will say that modern U.S. college campuses seem like alienating places in general and for a lot of reasons. So this student, who was already isolated and confused, now has somebody to blame! It's the freaks... the blacks... etc. etc.
