Hey, genius, how many presidents had drones? And, again, those conflicts were because of Bush's war. As was the explosion of terrorist groups.
But but but Bush!
And Obama pulled out, left nothing in place and decided to let Syria and Iraq fall to Isis. Not to mention letting Hamas get elected and watch Libya and Egypt fall.
And Bush caused the quagmire that is impossible to fix. Yes, Bush! Bush! Bush!

No, they're called facts. Remember the first time you came in here, claiming I said something I didn't? Those aren't facts, those are lies. The facts are Russia, Assange and the use of Wikileaks were intended and used to get Trump elected. Comey's motivations are questionable but not the results. If Trump wrecks the best economy any president in the modern era has ever walked into, then the fucktards who elected him will be shown to have elected the worst president in history despite being painfully obvious from the start that he was woefully unqualified when they casted their votes... Maybe he'll be fantastic and prove them all to be geniuses... If not, they are the scurge of America. A group of small, ugly, hateful, scared and miserable human beings who live in an insulated world and allow their own fears and insecurities to drive them to self destruction under the false guise of righteous patriotism. This will be on their heads.
Facts or not, they're still excuses. Hillary was shady and turned half the country off. Trump was far from an unflawed candidate obviously, but he still won. Regardless of how or why it happened, it happened. There's no turning back now.
It's not an excuse, it is a fact that it took outside forces to defeat her, and he still couldn't win the popular vote. No one is saying it didn't happen or he isn't the legal President, he's *President Trump. And yes, no turning back for the fucktards who voted him in.

More bombs and drones, yet Obama is weak on terrorism? Oh, ok.
We had more terrorist attacks in our country during Obama than Bush? Ummm....911? WTF are you talking about.
Obama is not responsible for the safety of Europe.
911 KILLED A LOT OF PEOPLE.
THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF ATTACKS SINCE BUSH LEFT AND SINCE WE PULLED OUT OF IRAQ.
Cause and effect. You start a stupid war, the dominos fall and keep falling. The damage outlasted his presidency.

Faldor, when did u drink the cool aid? Gotta say if your excuse is Democrats put up a poor candidate it's a pretty weak argument buddy.. but whatever floats your boat.
These women protest marches are funny to me considering like 53% of WHITE women voted for Trump. Stupid fuckin cunts
Where's the representation of their voices in these protests? Anyway..Also, all the other protests seem a bit like crying over split milk. Why couldn't these assholes mobilise themselves beforehand to stop this from happening?*
It's my opinion that Hillary wasn't a good candidate and that is the main reason she lost. The Democrats bent over backwards to have her be their candidate. Bernie probably would have wiped the floor with Trump. So yeah, bad choice. Just my opinion, you don't have to share it.
This will piss off ID....
Bernie could have beaten Trump, I agree.
No, not mad. Bernie's campaign would have been beaten to death with the socialist tag along with his Castro praise and the fucktards. That MSNBC town hall a few weeks back proved he had no handle on the Trump voters and couldn't get past his own rigid campaign talk to actually sway anyone.

It's not a fact, but you can go on believing that if it makes you feel better. Do you have proof Hillary would have won the election if certain things didn't happen? I think that would be impossible to prove unless you break out the DeLorean and change the events leading up to Election Day. Let me know when you get back from your journey.
Re: US Politics Thread
While I certainly don't condone the joke, I don't think she deserves to be fired for it. The problem with social media is people go on there and post without giving it much thought, and once they do it's already too late. I'm sure she regrets it, a lame attempt at humor. They can't all be winners. Suspend her, reprimand her, but firing seems a bit harsh to me.
Bart Hubbuch, writer for the NY Post, compared the 2017 Inauguration Day to 9/11 and Pearl Harbor in a tweet yesterday. I really don't care for the guy, and haven't for some time. Does he deserve to be fired though? I do know Curt Schilling got fired by ESPN for some questionable tweets, so it's not unprecedented. He's a staunch republican FWIW.

Cause and effect. You start a stupid war, the dominos fall and keep falling. The damage outlasted his presidency.
And the net benefit of Iraq was all jihadist came to fight their holy war. They weren't blowing up Europe or coordinating attacks in America because they had an army to fight. Bush consolidated the enemy in a shit hole, and kept them contained.
Not only did Obama create a vacuum that allowed ISIS to form, his foreign policy resulted in more nations being consumed by radical Islam. Bush contained it and Obama let it spread and grow. Now Russia, the brand new enemy of progressives, has swooped in to put their name on the solution. Meanwhile we allow Israel to be weakened, our sole western democracy in the region. And their armed to the teeth with nukes. So if the Hajis decide to march on Jerusalem, welcome to WW3.
The best thing to do would dispatch an American division to provide ground and air support and work in unison with Russia, The UK with Germany and other NATO forces. Hell, put an Arab in charge and provide local forces to root out and destroy ISIS. Back it up with a huge trade and energy deal for all participating countries and turn a profit bringing the ME into the 21st century.
