FYI info into an investigation about Trump Orgs affiliation with hush money payments and campaign violations likely to be released 'soon'.
Could be nothing but worth keeping an eye on
I can't tell you how many of the ominous posts have been made in this thread with crickets afterwards. Sooner or later something will come of one of these, can we wait until it does to post about it?

No, Mitch. It’s because you’re an angry asshole. You don’t come here to have a conversation with anyone. You’ve derailed this entire thread because your sole interest in this thread is to talk about other posters and insult them. You can’t even form coherent thoughts.
You’re embarrassingly misinformed and ignorant on nearly every newsworthy event. It’s not that you have a different opinion, it’s that you don’t actually offer an opinion - you offer angry, random, and incoherent vitriol that isn’t in any way meant to engage another person.
This thread is dead because you’re a distraction. No one wants to post in this section because you’ll quickly turn it into a commentary on your behavior and wild, offensive insults. People came out the wood work to condemn you, so you know people are reading this discussion. And they’re not posting because they’ll be attacked by you for daring to say something different than whatever cause you’ve decided to unload onto random strangers you don’t know nor make any attempt to learn about or understand.
All of us have lost our cool and been dicks over the years. But that’s all you offer. I’m seriously asking you to ask yourself why you come here to voice your “opinion” when it’s quite obvious your posts are the first time you’ve ever considered the topic and are only interested in being an asshole to others.
It’s old, man. One guy here voted for Trump, and while he’s clearly logged in to read the forum, doesn’t seem interested in posting because of how toxic your behavior has made this thread. Yet you attack the air at this MAGA hat wearing boogeyman you’ve created and projected onto everyone.
Either post constructively, and deal with the occasional disagreement, or don’t post. You don’t have to be an asshole. You're choosing to be.
Blow me Flagg....
This thread is dead because you want it to be an echo chamber for people agree with you.
You disgust me with how you hold me to higher standards than politicians on the right.
Insults aside, I don't understand how after maybe 4 years or so of this thread or another version of it you can't see that you do the exact thing you're bitching about here towards the left. Please tell me this is part of your schtick and you're not really this ignorant...

I've again requested that mitch be banned or at least blocked from this section. He's making no attempt at all to discuss anything.

Lemme ask you something else...how many pics do you have of yourself on your FB page with sunglasses on...possibly your shirt off.
I don't even want to see me with my shirt off. Any more bad guesses? You're on a roll.

MAGA2020 you hypocrite hillbilly
Keep shuffling the chairs around upon the deck of the titanic
As opposed to losing my shit over things I don't even understand like you do? While others are shuffling the chairs around you, you keep screaming that the chairs are facing the wrong direction while sitting in one of them.
Hillbilly. Born and raised in one of the biggest cities in the US. Keep grasping for straws bro. If you make enough guesses, eventually even you will be right about something.

Better than spewing what you spew.
Let me summarize all your posts right here:
I’m really reasonable and i call things down the middle. I’m just a middle of the road guy.Confronted with a real issue: obviscate, put off, criticize those who cannot defend themselves, speak in abstractions, claim to be an American through and through.
Next.
What "real issue" mitch? You wouldn't know a real issue if it smacked you in the mouth because you're too busy screaming from the rooftops.
In your twisted mind, taking a stand, even if it's completely the wrong stand (which most of yours are) is superior to stepping back and looking at things objectively. You call trying to make rational decisions straddling the fence. Yet every time I've given you the chance to discuss healthcare, you disappear. Why is that? This whole thread is you avoiding answering any questions and running at the mouth calling people names because you can't win on an intellectual level.

How about Obama. 2008-2016. Obamacare. Should they have left too? The people who disagreed with it. Hannity, Rush, Tea Party. McConnell didn't like Merrick Garland, he should've just left. If a Dem wins in 2020, Republicans should just leave. Go somewhere else. Got it guys, way to paint yourselves into a corner
Reading comprehension is a skill. I know I never said such a thing, but you're channeling your inner mitch now...

Heck, Trumps parents I believe were born in another country. Did Hillary yell "If you don't like it go back to where you came from!" in 2016 when he said the US was a mess?
And 1989 Axl Rose said 'Go back to your country' however 2018 Axl didn't even release that song on his $500 box set.
It doesn't matter...none of that makes it racist. It isn't an anything -ist (maybe USist, but that's what he's always claimed to be anyway), so your side has lumped everything as racist to make sound bad, but now that word has no meaning. If you don't like it here, GTFO is a perfectly acceptable response. So is change the laws you don't like. There are a lot of acceptable responses; accusing someone of racism because you think it makes them sound bad isn't one of them. It just waters down the actual racism...
Not wanting illegal immigrants in the country is NOT racist. Not wanting antisemitic people in the country is NOT racist. Not wanting terrorists in the country is NOT racist. Erring on the side of caution in all of these cases is NOT racist. It's protecting the country, which contrary to popular belief these days is one of the top responsibilities of the President. Should he say the things he says? No, but much better that it's out in the open than behind closed doors like Pelosi.
If this country was even 1/10 as racist as the dems have been trying to make it sound like it is...there's no good way to put it, but a lot of really bad shit would be happening. We've come a long way. We still have work to do (on all sides). Accusing everything of being racist is taking us back in time far more than anything Trump has said though.
It's "politically incorrect" how about that then?
I don't think he's wrong though. He says it horribly but if you're on the record as being antisemitic do you really get to be offended by being told to GTFO? Presentation is important and trump is a complete failure in that department, but the message behind the horrible wording he chooses isn't wrong. Not wanting illegal immigrants in the country is certainly a viable stance given the word illegal. I mean discussion should stop as soon as that word is mentioned, but it doesn't. Dems believe they can pick and choose the laws that should be followed. That's not how it works.
Change the f'n laws if you want, but follow them while they are the law. That's it.
