"massive demographic changes" isn't even a dogwhistle - it's just flat out racist.


and completely unrelated, this is extreme but also not completely wrong and might be worth a watch:

yes she's one of many black sellouts who is making money by pandering to guillable idiots like SD20. Just go look at the settlement she got from her college for racial discrimination. She's a **** hypocrite.

It's pretty clear that the good old days to people like Ingraham refer to the pre civil rights movement days - if not pre Civil War days.

The President has repeatedly, flagrantly lied about everything connected to this case. The only reason he's not in jail already is because he's the president, so he can't be indicted, and he's being protected by co-conspirators on the GOP side. Half of our government are criminals.

Meant to address this much sooner, but if you’ve been following the Manafort trial closely, the judge is clearly biased and trying to subtly torpedo the case against Manafort IMO.

what about going back to a time when the USA dominated the globe in manufacturing, banking, trade, education, quality of life and opportunity...BUT...this time around making sure everyone feels an equality of inclusion and enjoyment. women, minorities, LBGTQ, Everyone feels good about the USA dominating those things and raising the bar for ALL americans. . Back to a time when less murders were committed? Back to a time when people were nicer to each other on the street? :dontknow: doesn't sound like a bad idea to me?

As far as Ingraham, she may pander to the religious right of her audience from time to time (and you would too with money on the line) but still...she adopted a daughter out of poverty from guatamala and extensively dated Dinesh D'souza and actively supports minorities of both liberal and conservative backgrounds on her show(s) (which include one of the top rated shows in prime time and 3 hours of radio every day) giving them a platform to launch their careers. Hardly the acts of a racist.
like i said, its a full rebuild.

Seems like it to me..........but according to the "experts" this is just how he handles his court.

"young people" . lol . arrogant and smug. lol

she served under Ronald Reagan in 80's as a speech writer. Yes that ronald reagan that most people agree was the best president of the last 40-50 years. She was a law clerk for clearance thomas at the United states Supreme court!! graduated from law school in 91. She is 55 years old. Seriously...if she is smug and arrogant its because she is NOT a snot nosed kid that doesn't know anything. She is well versed on the issues. She is worth 50 million and grew up middle class. She made all her money on her own. no man. no husband. no nothing. just her brain and work ethic. She is an amazing human being.

I dont agree with her or any conservatives social press for the religious christian right...but I do understand it. Religion calms people. Religion makes "most people" more docile and behave better and gives them a good value system. But other than that? Or a mistake here and there? Ingraham is a pretty solid human being.

Good I guess. As a person who lives very near Russia, I was very afraid of them when Trump got elected. He pushed Russia is our friend agenda so much, I was terrified. i think tension between Russia and USA is a good thing, because it what keeps Russia in check. Russia always been playing a waiting game, when will USA stop caring or turn the blind eye.

We were talking about Trump at work today, which is very random topic to have in the middle of Europe, but one of our very young interns said that Trump policies as of today makes Baltic states far safer, in comparison of what would have been under Hillary. We never finished the conversation, so i dont know what facts she based her opinion on, but it was interesting, because she said she felt the same as me when Trump got elected, that we are screwed basically. And her opinion completely changed.

Personally, I never ever understood Trump appeal, but he hasn't been the worst, and its crazy to me that this is the guy that divided an entire country so complete. He doesnt warrant an extreme opinion, especially pro opinion, but even con opinion is more of the meh. Its just that he has no credibility, its his main weakpoint. And his behavior on twitter and some PR stuff hasn't help at all to be honest. He is the least presidential president i could remember, but it could be much worse, like imagine Rick Perry or something. President is an a-hole, but he is not evil bigot, he really isn't IMO.

I have only seen clips of here, but she looks deplorable to me, like a complete opposite of amazing human being. I didn't argue that she isn't successful. And yeah, i thought she was younger...

Trump has been stalling on the sanctions as long as he could and now it appears he's throwing the towel in as his lawyer has admitted that he has committed collusion.

Reading conservatives you'd think Trump rescued us from the destruction of mankind under Obama.
