Wark Say posted:You'd think that, complete lack of principles aside, a little bit of lip service for one of the occasions where it'd be important might be good. Serves what I know. Trump is the man who called John McCain a loser for getting captured and made the "maverick" his obedient bitch. If he actually had any intelligence he'd at least make his cruelty creative and hire a former Vietcong member to dictate his missives to McCain like an angry jailer in Vietnamese.

Some cared a bit since Trump's polling reached its all time low in the aftermath of the DNC but then some time went by and Hillary fainted on 9/11 so people stopped caring.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:The only thing making me lean toward "fake" is the idea of Trump giving away merch at, assumedly, a discounted price. Well yes, but that is assuming that you something actually ships out and arrives once payment is made, which won't happen so it doesn't matter what the discounted price is.

clockworkjoe posted:I'm not sure if this is more for the RWM thread, but someone blew up at me today about how it's unfair that Europe has" 40% tariffs for cars and it's wrong that we don't" A quick googling gave me the numbers. 10% tariff on imports to EU. The US has a 2.5% tariff on cars and 25% on trucks. Source: http://www.caranddriver.com/features/free-trade-cars-why-a-useurope-free-trade-agreement-is-a-good-idea-feature Bear in mind that looking at tariffs one by one is not really clever since there are millions of products with different tariffs. I honestly doubt that reducing the tariff on American cars in EU would make any significant difference on the sales numbers.

The GOP only give a poo poo about the military when it lets them have jerkoff fantasies about dead brown people, or when they need a quick way to pretend to be superior to real people without putting any thought into it..

Let's be clear, Republicans don't give a good God-damned poo poo about service members. The only thing they care about is the projection of power our military provides. They masturbate to footage of tomahawk missiles launching.

When we do it, we have a reason or can make up a reason or at least hand wave it away.
