I get the theme is "haha not true Obozo" but some of this stuff is true. You can't deny that Iran failed to go nuclear or especially that Obama was the one to get Osama. Unless Eden is some kind of idiot who thinks Obama meant he personally killed Osama in an honor duel.

Wait... it's NOT intended to be taken at face value? :psyduck:

yeah, it's really telling that the Democrats are just opposing everythin when the Republicans were willing to reach across the aisle and work with the president.

Hell, during the 2012 Election Newt "I Shut Down the Government in the Mid-90s" Gingrich insisted that during the Clinton administration the Republicans worked hand-in-hand with him in the spirit of bipartisanship.

Edit: There was another Government shutdown by the Republicans in 2013 too, but nobody seemed to really care that the Republicans did that outside of the Republicans who complained during that period that Obama had shut down the Government.

Literally every refugee is an uncontrollable hate monster who, when they see a gay person, will turn into a T-1000 and use their liquid metal sword arms to kill them.

If Trump hadn't won in 2016 the GOP had high hopes for T-1000 Killing Refugees With Liquid Metal Sword Arms 2020.

There need to be way more Reagan reacting to Trump cartoons if the right's mental block is ever going to get cracked.

Reagan? That RINO? Pfft, if he wanted to secure his legacy as a great Republican President he should have been more like Reagan, now there was a great Republican President! Not like that loser Reagan!

"Antifa Black Bloc slammed two fireworks into the campus, (Commander In) Chief. We was comin’ back from the city of San Francisco to Berkeley. We’d just delivered Milo. One of the good ones. Eleven hat wearing men went into the counterprotest. Our line went down in 12 minutes.

Didn’t see the first leftist for about a half-hour. Anarchist. 6-footer. You know how you know that in the streets Chief? You can tell by lookin’ from the hoody to the boots. What we didn’t know, was that our counterprotest was so secret, no distress tweet had been sent. They didn’t even list us overdue for 6 hours. Very first streetlight, Chief, leftists come cruisin’ by, so we formed ourselves into tight groups. It was sorta like you see in the calenders. Infantry squares like in the old calendars like the Battle of Bunker Hill and the idea was the leftist come to the nearest man, that man he starts trollin’ and posturin’ and sometimes that leftist he go away… but sometimes he wouldn’t go away.

Sometimes that leftist looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a leftist is he’s got watery eyes. Weepy eyes. Like a baby’s eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn’t even seem to be an adult… ’til he punches ya, and those watery eyes roll over commie red and then… ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched virtue signalin’. The Overton Window closes up, and despite all your trollin’ and your posturin’ those leftists come in and… they tolerate you to pieces.

Anyway, the speech was cancelled.”

My Guess: Garrison will never draw, write about, or make mention of Milo ever again.

if i'm wrong then lmao, because it'll mean that he, along with the entirety of the alt-right (if Twitter is evidence enough), has failed to understand that nobody is holding a gun to their heads and commanding them to support pedophilia. they're doing that all on their own.

A fat, crying pink-haired woman with horn-rimmed glasses bleats,"WHY AREN'T YOU TALKING ABOUT MILO!?!" and a smug Trump replies,"Why aren't YOU talking about pizzagate? :smug:

Yeah having your kid be asleep is the perfect state for them to subconsciously absorb your socialist propaganda, softly whisper 'smash the state' in their ears at regular intervals nightly for best results

You know what Obama is doing right now? He's sitting with his feet up watching TV and sighing in contentment.

Every so often he picked up the remote and starts to flick through the channels, but the closer he gets to C-SPAN the tighter Michelle's eyebrows knit together, and he's not that brave.
