Bogatyr posted:The terrorism speech a few days ago where he was talking about calling them Losers instead of Monsters since terrorists would enjoy being called monsters I think is more projection. That's actually the right way to discuss terrorists. After he London bus bombing the British police talked about the terrorists like they were petty criminals or "punks", that's even better. The wrong thing to do is to discuss the terrorists like the US media does, which gives them a kind of mystique.

Evil Fluffy posted:His base will love it because "LOOKIT TRUMP SINGING UNLIKE THAT PINKO COMMIE KENYAN BASTARD UBUMMAR." The reason this is especially great is that Mattis is standing there solemnly so if someone says this poo poo, you can immediately ask why they think Mattis hates America. It really is best to just troll these people. As an aside, got into it with a coworker the other day about the Russia stuff and he of course brought up Benghazi so I asked him why he's ok with Trump having had Ryan Owens assassinated in Yemen to silence him about his illegal campaign contributions. He basically shut down completely. I encourage this tack with people you know who are lost.

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Yeah, I guess, but the whole town was apparently reduced down to .13 square miles of land and was 10 families. It is absolute nonsense for a town that small to have an entire local town government. Like I get it's unfortunate it had to be about horse cruelty but pretty much the first time anything did anything that made anyone even notice that a town government was even still a thing someone was going to say "why do we even have this? just let the county manage us, the county seat is literally the next town over" This kind of stuff happens fairly frequently in rural areas. Here is the most recent one I could find in Iowa. http://www.thehawkeye.com/news/local/state-board-dissolves-city-of-mount-union/article_fbef38f6-ae16-5520-ba6b-a429201871e2.html IIRC a lot of the issues have a lot to do with infrastructure operations and maintenance. DNR comes in and tells people "hey please stop drinking your own poo poo." People get all hung ho and sign 10 year agreements to buy water (even though everyone is like minimum 85) then people eventually start dying and the kids (likely living in another state) are left paying a water bill for an empty house that no one will ever live in again. I've heard a lot of those cases end in the house mysteriously burning down because then the water/sewer contract ends. That or I remember the case of one town that had like 35 people and no one ran for mayor or council. They asked the outgoing mayor why didn't run and he said he was just sick of it, he had been the mayor or rotated around the council or city clerk off and on for the last 25 years.

I'm not denying he looks like a complete idiot rocking back with that ridiculous grin forgetting half the words. People who are not Trump can usually handle singing something solemnly in remembrance of dead people. Happens all the time in churches.

I'm glad Trump has gotten to the point where he's as openly disrespectful to the dead veterans as he is for the live ones. FUCKIN' DUMB DEAD GUYS, I PREFER THE SOLDIERS WHO *DIDN'T* GET KILLED! HEH!

Do Americans typically not sing the lyrics to their national anthem when it's playing? I mean, it's odd that he's the only one doing it, but other than that it doesn't seem strange.

If it's a retarded occasion like a ball game you can sing. If it's at the Arlington National loving Cemetary on Memorial Day where, in some cases, heroes who protected the country are buried? You loving act like a goddamn adult and you pretend to be somber for the occasion.

You know, there's a giant gulf between "The President did nothing wrong" and "He needs to be impeached for this it's worse than Russia". Pretty sure many of us are nestled comfortably in the spot where we think he's a moron for singing and patting to the beat like a giant stupid child but it's just harmless idiocy that is only further proof he's not fit to run a country.
