President Donald J Trump

While we do occasionally allow threads about contentious things regarding politics and religion (reminder, LTT is a technology forum), they are solely allowed on the basis that they do not degrade into a mud slinging contest. This thread has become exceedingly off topic and toxic, and as a result it is now locked.

>Trump incites violence

 

"We're not allowed to punch back anymore" seems pretty true IMO.  So many people get away with things nowadays that probably shouldn't.

 

Sorry nothing in that video seems like he's going out and telling people to go beat the shit out of people or something like that lol. 

"If someone throws a tomato, punch them in the face... will you?"

 

They threw punches, even when tomatoes were not being thrown... as protesters were being escorted out.

 

 

Blatant bigotry and Americans are like:  IDK what you are talking about?  He ain't racist or sexist.

 

Let me explain:  He does not see/promote everyone as inherent equals.  He made sure his supporters felt superior to whatever "others" he pointed at. 

 

'Hate him!', or 'Hate her!', or 'Hate them!'  Then bumfuck America goes to town.

 

No response... hmmm... while Obama was dealing with multiple wars and a recovering economy, this asshat thought it would be a great idea to protest Obama's birth right to the presidency... for years.  His only excuse for this was that a picture circulated by the Clinton campaign in 2008 was the cause for HIS stupidity:  'It's Clinton's fault that I am a fucking idiot, but now I am going to finish it.'

Side note: in the last hour I have seen both Donald Trump and George W Bush unironically referred to as "SJWs". It's pretty clear that the term doesn't fucking mean anything any more.

Maybe the shitty term can die now. :D

Judging from some of the statements the Donald has made since Tuesday, he isn't going to be as conservative as his campaign pictured him as being. 

 

1. Keeping several of the mandates of the ACA such as pre-existing conditions. Most of the ACA is garbage and this is coming from someone that is progressive left.

2. Appears to support LGBT.

3. Stopping free trade pacts which ironically should be a leftist idea but for some reason his supporters have this anti-globalism hard on right now which is the opposite of capitalism. You can thank Carter and all of the neoliberals after for that.

I wouldn't call it a "minority" they practically tied, she barely had more popular votes in the grand scheme of things.  The reason the electoral college even exists is so that a few cities & states don't decide the ENTIRE election.  I was referring to the "racist, bigot, sexist" crap that people seem to be throwing around, despite not having much actual sustenance behind it.  The only "sexist" thing I heard was his "locker room talk" with another guy when they were talking about women behind closed doors.  I don't know many men that haven't talked like that at least once in their lives.  

 

Not sure where the racist thing came from, the only thing I can think of is that he wants to get rid of a lot of illegal immigrants, which I'm not sure how that's racist. 

I think it wasn't so much blatant sexism and racism so much as it was hinting towards them. 

 

The ironic fact out of all this though is that Obama has deported more illegals than any previous President and yet according to some he is bringing them over with welcoming arms.

I think Trump will be better than no president. Hillary would just be in jail for her foundation and pay to play scheme.

Yeah but until he neuters Mike Pence I'm not convinced he won't let him fuck things up.

Funny thing since the U.S has been filled with illegal immigrants since the 1700's with more murders of local native American Indians, not that I don't like a little bit of ethnic cleansing myself ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

It's time America stops knocking out governments and doing a bad job rebuilding it. If it ain't broke don't fix it please.

Trump doesn't know what he stands for in terms of actual policy. I remember him being pro-trans about a year ago when he welcomed trans women to use the female toilets in his building. Then he decided that in order to beat Ted Cruz he needed to go after the ultra-religious, get Mike Pence in, and go full on Christian Sharia Law.

 

Maybe, hopefully, the racism and misogyny and populism (as well as the promises to lean on the judiciary to imprison political opponents such as Hilary Clinton without charge or evidence) were a ploy to get the crazies to vote for him and that he absolutely intends to go back on everything that he said. His first target seems to be Net Neutrality so far, so well done for that one.

 

Ironically if he is as moderate a President as he wasn't a candidate, he could not only really piss off everyone who voted for him, but with such right wing extremists in government (such as Pence) as well as Republican control of both houses he could find it very difficult to get anything done.

 

The real concern, however, was how divisive his campaign was. He campaigned on a neo-Nazi platform, and whether or not that's something he intends to follow through with other neo-Nazis and neo-Nazi organisations such as the KKK now feel vindicated. Most people who voted Trump are not neo-Nazis, however they joined their side in this election. As such neo-Nazi ideals and actions have been officially vindicated. Expect to see a massive rise in hate-crimes. In the UK hate crimes increased 57% after Brexit. There were ways that Globalisation and Sovereignty issues could have been presented in responsible ways, but instead fear, racism and xenophobia were the platform and the impact has been noticeable. This rise of the far right is not only limited to the US and UK. Look at the rise of organisations like Front National in France, Golden Dawn in Greece, Alternative for Germany. Fascism and Nazi ideals are gaining momentum across the West.

Low intelligence president elect, goddammit.

 

He talks out his ass more than I do here at LTT.

 

Trump:

 

"Look what happened after Ghaddafi"  Pauses, because can't find the words and wants someone else to say it"  "Look what happened after Ghaddafi".  The reporter jumps in and asserts the word "mistake".  "mmmyeah, to me it was a total mistake... ...Benghazi".

 

Just fucking wow.  Let me help you out.  He regurgitates what someone else has told him and has no basis for his conclusions, most of the time.  That is why his answers lack substance.  He is a fucking celebrity salesman.  Congrats on electing Paris Hilton, America.  It is a good thing you guys have big guns, you will probably need them.  xD

Very interesting video. Trump makes some very good valid points, though he floats around a bit.

I'm wishing everyday now that his win was a dream.

Could still be a shake up on Dec 19th.

15 States don't have laws that state their representatives must give all electoral votes to the major vote winner of that State.  It is rare, but this could be the first major occurrence of more than one or two "roguish" representatives voting the opposite.

After reading up on the whole Muslim immigration thing I honestly have to agree I dont want Muslim refugees in the US that strictly adhere to their religion. The Muslims of the middle east arent like the ones in the USA that are friendly and kind. They live by a religion of oppression and violence. Though I dont think we should make them register or where arm bands, I do think we shouldn't allow Mulsim refugees into our country though Muslims that were born and raised in modern Europe are most likely not religion nuts like the others. Especially after reading about the violence and rape that happened in Europe by refugees. My opinion changes the more I read and to my knowledge after speaking with Obama in the white house the few points of the ACA which is that a company cant terminate or raise your premiums due to health or pre existing health and the fact that you can stay on your parents coverage till you 26 which benefits school students like me going for degrees beyond a masters, so I think I no longer have any reason to be against Trump. Let it be known I still wanted Bloomberg in an ideal world.

I can't lend support to a religious sect where its ok to throw gays off rooftops or women are respected no more than a goat. I've met kind Muslims in the USA so it isn't Muslims that's the problem, it's an incompatible culture that has no business in a western society.

Unfortunately the ones that would migrate to the states have those beliefs. If not for yourself speak out for your fellow lgbt and women from their hateful ideology.

What the makes you guys think that there are not millions of fundamentalist christians in the USA who are just as ruthless as any muslim fundamentalist?..

 

...oh right, brainwashing.

 

As bad as muslims can be, the religious right in the USA is no better... not to me.  Evil fuckers.  Dumb as fuck.
