Well, Bolton is going to talk Trump into starting WW3 within 3 months tops, but at least we'll get one final harvest of freeper tears. Drink up, Goons.

Cythereal posted:Dunno if Freep cares about superhero movies, but there might be some gold to be mined about Deadpool 2 now - Brianna Hildebrand's character has been revealed to be a lesbian with a girlfriend in the movie, which I think makes her the first openly gay superhero in a modern superhero movie. That depends on if you consider the Power Rangers superheroes or not. The yellow Power Ranger in the new movie was openly a lesbian.

They're basically starting to get the disappointment we did about a year into Obama's term, when the healthcare debate turned and we collectively realized we weren't even going to get the public option. Except the ACA was still something. They're not going to get anything. If the House flips then all they'll be able to show for electing Trump is their boss' boss getting a tax cut.

We had also gotten a couple of other landmark pieces of legislation, such as Lily Ledbetter and the stimulus package. Not to mention dozens of other, smaller things like environmental and financial regulations that got passed with less fanfare. This Congress is so inept that they have managed a single major piece of legislation in a year and a half--and it's a tax cut that no one wanted and that barely passed because even Blue Dog Democrats wouldn't touch it. That's how you know your marketing has truly failed: when you cannot get the Joe Manchins and Joe Donnellys of the world signed on because your tax cut is such an obvious giveaway to the rich that you cannot hide it.

The Trump news conference live thread is a rich harvest. They start out so hopeful. quote:President Trump certainly knows how to create drama! And I love it. quote:He will veto it and then will articulate why. Wants to get the people behind him to get on Congress. Sarah Barracuda, always here to elevate the dialogue. quote:Id wipe my rear end with the bill, throw it on the floor and walk out of the room There's a lot of speculating about whether it's a veto folder or a signing folder and if chair vs lecturn makes a difference, when... quote:To: Jane Long Lawl. Anyway, FR handles the news that he's signing it with their usual sobriety. quote:Not good. Hillary must be laughing. quote:Oh, yeah... we’re about to start on that wall any day now. This guy updated his signature fast! quote:Trump, I volunteered for you, gave you money, took harassment from family and friends for you...for what? Trump has shown himself as lying SOB now. I could care less about his fate now, let the uniparty have it all - it was a good ride America while it lasted. What will Q's take be anyway? quote:in before Q tards say “trust the plan” Uh, raiderboy, do you need to lie down? quote:CNN is laughing and yelling!!! We have been sucker punched and humiliated . It is not just the wall == it is that the bill was never read— it is the baby killing — obamacare and sanctuary cities is FUNDED. I dont give a crap about the military full of queers and women in combat and mentally ill sex changes. I don’t want Bolton and I don’t want war unless we attack Saudi Arabia for their SUNNI al qaeda— Their SUMNNI ISIS!! Their SUNNI attack on the 911. To hell with Syria— they have done NOTHING AGAINST THIS COUNTRY. We got hammered — now the political consequences fall on Trump and he will not be liking it but we will not have this crammed down our throat. HE BETRAYED US!!I was his biggest fan from day 1— Now I will not be silent about the lies he told

You know, when Trump was elected I predicted that he would probably get his wall. It was a stupid ego project but I figured the GOP was afraid enough of its voters to let them just have it. After the first 100 days passed without it and the ACA Repeal failed it was pretty obvious the writing was on the ground (because there is no wall to put it on it, you see). Seems it took Freepers a year to catch on. Can't wait for the House to flip and they realize just how little they'll actually get out of this presidency.

FMguru posted:Watching them flail around trying to explain why a Republican president with a Republican House, Republican Senate, and Republican-controlled Supreme Court can't seem to deliver on any of his Republican campaign promises has been a reliable form of entertainment these past 14 months Yeah, in the months between the election and Trump's swearing-in, I needed to avoid this thread, because I had nightmares of Freep getting exactly what they wanted - a hyper-competent Republican machine, headed by a regressive, bullheaded monster, that would just power in all of his campaign promises within the first few months. While I don't want to downplay the damage Trump has been doing to our country and democratic processes, I was eventually able to come back after realizing, man, he's not really doing much for them, is he? Nowadays, Freep slowly realizing that Trump isn't their mental-constructed All-Powerful Conservative Father Figure is one of the things that keeps me going.

Hungary Warns of 'Global Government' That Will 'Strip People' of Identities If it "strips away identities" then why does everyone keep calling it "identity politics"? quote:In his address at a conference Monday, the founding member of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s conservative Fidesz party stated that “the new technique and ideology of government is aimed at creating (societies) without an identity”. When you're holding up Hungary as your example, that's a good time to be asking "are we the baddies?" quote:It sounds like Hungary is the only European nation that knows what is going on. You know who's really got their poo poo wired tight? Belarus.  Countdown until Freepers start Slav-squatting in solidarity. quote:Amazing how Eastern Europe is leading the call to resist. ... wouldn't take much. quote:More Trump than Trump..? quote:I don’t know who is calling the shots but there is no doubt in my mind that there are individuals or groups who are. Is somebody going to report this commie? quote:Hungary totally gets it. So the factions that want to recognize everyone's individual identity are... anti-individualist? Makes you think... quote:This non-individualistic glowbull governance, should it prevail, would merely hand the world to islam, effectively. There would be war, but on “our” side, there would be little heart into it, opposed to islamist crazies. Welp, my toast got burned, looks like it's the End Times(tm). quote:End Times ping, please Nor with fascism, oddly enough. quote:Not their first rodeo with communism.

I like this onequote:As I slip my tinfoil on and then off, I now feel no difference. I am obliged to think until otherwise proven without a shadow of doubt that many events are complete conspiracy and or cover up by government. Maybe I am cracking but I do not trust anything about this government or the fools who run it. It is not going to get any better and it will ultimately hit a tipping point unimaginable. Just the image of some scared old man looking in the mirror putting on and taking off a tinfoil hat, slowly discovering that he is, in fact, insane.

Fuckin' called it: Man arrested for threatening to murder Virginia congressman The initial news articles just said it was "over a dispute about marijuana policy" which is just some piss-poor reporting since I found other sources that clearly state that the nutbag is upset that the government *isn't* cracking down on weed. Freep however did zero digging and happily jumped to conclusions: Goddamit Freep, the rear end in a top hat with the shogtun is one of *your* guys. quote:First off, when they don't mention the perp's political affiliation you can bet they are democrats. Second, I think this liberal pot head has picked a fight with the wrong Republican. Taylor is a former sniper with the Navy SEAL's. Maybe one day someone will find Godwin with a hole in his head, laying face down in a pool of his blood. Let's cram Islam into this somehow: quote:
I would not be in the least surprise if buddy has a Freep account. Has Freep yet rushed to purge all the posts by the Austin bomber or was that just a guess? quote:This does not seem like very mellow behavior at all from a 1960’s pothead. You're getting warmer... quote:Why would a pothead sue the Fed gov for not enforcing marijuana laws? And a Freeper finally gets it right; time to close the thread as unproductive. quote:Some actual info on him here: https://www.thecannabist.co/2018/03/23/virginia-marijuana-policy-scott-taylor-threats/102309/ If Freep lasts another five years, it's entirely possible that being pro-weed will become the majority position. And if JimRob decides it eases the pain of his 'beetus stumps, whoa nelly watch for a shift. EDIT: thread is still moving, and just getting better and better: quote:He says he’s a “natural born Conservative” and he wants to know why Federal laws against marijuana aren’t being enforced.
