HRC has had a decades-long career of tangibly assisting people at the lower rungs of the social ladder. Coal miners, women, displaced people, wage parity, etc. Concurrently, Trump was shitting on people, ripping off contractors, money laundering for Russian oligarchs, screwing married women without using condoms, grabbing pussy, pissing off Mexicans, pissing off the Pope, getting pissed on in a Moscow hotel, ...... yea, we know who the better candidate was. 2 hours ago, isaanbanhou said: Why do es America need a celebrity or tv star to be president? Why not someone qualified for the job instead of someone from tabloid tv? Americans grow up with fiction-shows on TV. Note to Trump fans: (Trump didn't fire the people on his silly show. That was all in the script written by others - similar to Trump's State of the Union speech - the words were all written by Miller and Hicks). Americans are also nurtured by fictional shoot-'em-up movies and comic books. So, for at least the first 20 years of their lives, many Americans are living in a plastic make-believe world. They know nearly nothing about the world outside of their plastic bubbles. That's one reason why Trump was popular among 30% of US voters. There were other reasons, including Putin's/Russians intense influence, but you already knew that. 1 hour ago, pedro01 said: Trump didn't win the election. Hillary lost it. She was that awful. Trump cheated. That's a big part of the Russia investigation. Side note which hasn't hit the news yet: Guilliani influenced the FBI to compel Republican Comey to release the ridiculous nothing-burger 9 days before the election. Remember Comey's release? Yes, the one that said Hillary may have broken the law because someone with sexual problems may have emailed her. Of course it was a nothing-burger, but by then it was too late. Even with nearly 2 million more votes than Trump, HRC lost, and the result is the daily nightmare we're experiencing now. The latest: Trump can't even find a way to provide comforting words for friends & family of the FL students gunned down. Trump tried, but was only able to talk about himself and add "there's no collusion." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) No golf for Trump on Saturday and Sunday - WH staff convinced that it would look bad given the nearby school shooting - and Melania seems to have ditched him as well, so he went absolutely loony on Twitter with an impressive run of idiotic tweets, of which this Oprah one was one of a dozen or so. Thank goodness they let golf on Monday. He's really showing some classic Nixonian behavior. Trump is far worse than Nixonian “Nixonian” is not the right word to use to describe the behavior of President Trump. In important ways, that characterization smears Richard Nixon. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/calling-trump-nixonian-thats-not-fair-to-nixon/2018/02/02/f889ea18-0865-11e8-94e8-e8b8600ade23_story.html?utm_term=.f2f9d31674b6 And Ya Burnt by Thomas Friedman Whatever Trump Is Hiding Is Hurting All of Us Now Our democracy is in serious danger. President Trump is either totally compromised by the Russians or is a towering fool, or both, but either way he has shown himself unwilling or unable to defend America against a Russian campaign to divide and undermine our democracy. In sum, Trump is either hiding something so threatening to himself, or he’s criminally incompetent to be commander in chief. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/18/opinion/trump-russia-putin.html Edited February 20, 2018 by mtls2005 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, president of the USA? This sounds like part of the plot to that old movie Network, where the news division is taken over by an entertainment manager leading to farcical events. I think my point was better stated by the British comic who plays the character Jonathan Pie, a supposed TV news reporter. Warning: he does use the "F word" and one other vulgar term to better express his rant (if such concerns you): Absolutely f###ing brilliant!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) This is a fake issue. Oprah is not running. "trump" doesn't want to do the work of president. He doesn't understand anything about policy and he doesn't care enough about it to learn. Americans made a tragic mistake electing such a ridiculous con man buffoon. But it happened. He does like the pomp and circumstance and the blood sport of campaigns and rallies. So this Oprah tweet is just about that. Diversion and something "trump" is interested in.

And those are just the things we know about. She makes Nixon look like boy scout. The FBI is charged, primarily, with protecting US citizens. They spy on adversarial foreign agents (among others). If an American happens to be picked up conversing/interacting suspiciously with a foreign agent, then that American is suspect. As often as not, that US accomplice is unwitting. Many indications show that Trump was both a witting and, at times, an unwitting accomplice of adversarial agents who seek to harm the US. Trump fans can't/won't see it, so thankfully, they're not on the front lines of defense for America's best interests. If you like the idea of Putin controlling policies/elections in the US and/or America's well-being getting ripped asunder, then you'll love how Trump and his buddies are assisting in that regard. Most Americans don't want Puting controlling major facets of the US, and that's a large part of why they want Trump and all his hangers-on out of DC as soon as possible. Mass shootings in the US disrupt America and deepen divides. That's good for Russia. The weaker the US gets, the stronger Russia gets. Same for China. It's no coincidence that Russia and the NRA have sent lots of money back and forth. Connect the dots or, if you're a Trump fan, don't bother, and simply sit back, polish your guns, and watch the US debilitate. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomerangutang Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Speaking of HRC and her server tempest in a teacup: Not one, I repeat, not one email from HRC has been shown to harm the US any more than a gnat can harm an aircraft carrier. Conversely, Pence, has been shown to use unsecured email servers and some of his emails discussed legal issues pertaining to Muslim insurgents. Nearly every one of Trump's inner circle have been using unsecured email accounts for years. Trump JR wrote in one email "If it's true, I love it!" when responding to an email which said he would be shown stolen emails from another US campaign. P.S. in case you're not sure: Stealing is a crime in the US, and it pertains to digital media. People who receive stolen goods which they know are stolen, are a party to the theft. Ask any pawn shop manager. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my [device_name] using http://Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app as obama could not run for the presidency the voters would get change regardless. qualified means either 1.a : fitted (as by training or experience) for a given purpose : competent b : having complied with the specific requirements or precedent conditions (as for an office or employment) : eligible 2: limited or modified in some way www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/qualified being able to say "islamic terrorist" oddly doesn t make one qualified. neither does being a tv personality. Al Roker was on television for years presenting the weather, he is a tv personality and is "qualified" to present the weather but really not qualified to be president David Duke can say "islamic terrorist" but in my humble opinion isn t qualified to be president. Trump was both a tv personality and can say"islamic terrorist", however I feel being a serial sexual assaulter, a liar and a bigot should make his "qualifications" somewhat tarnished. Obviously you are impressed by his "qualifications' and admire what he is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I once thought that about trump as well It's hard to imagine any public figure as unlikely as "trump" to win the presidency. Truly a global black swan of epic proportions. Ironic considering his campaign was largely based on white resentment. The question now is if America will ever live down this massive mistake.
