Political Roundtable Part XXVII

[dobrojim]

As honest as Honest Abe (Lincoln) himself too. (BTW) Did you know Lincoln was a Republican?
A lot of people don't/didn't know that! Good thing we have a POTUS so steep in the history
of our country to remind us of these sorts of things.

As of Oct. 9, his 993rd day in office, he had made 13,435 false or misleading claims, according to the Fact Checker’s database that analyzes, categorizes and tracks every suspect statement he has uttered. That’s an average of almost 22 claims a day since our last update 65 days ago.

Trump took what could have been one his most presidential, uniting moments and completely blew it.

He literally can not put what is good for the country ahead of his own interest.

Funny how someone talks about things like beastiality, but proudly stands with the party that fights for a 50 year old man dressed as a woman to be able to use the same bathroom as an 8 year old girl. Talk about revolting

One of the worst, asinine and most backwards comment I have ever seen In RealGM in all my time here.

The most ethical of the four. Can there be any question about this? I think not. Definitely most ethical.

Since day one of the Trump administration, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) has been tracking the conflicts of interest that stem from the president’s decision not to divest from the Trump Organization. They fall into five broad categories:

Visits to Trump properties by foreign government officials, members of Congress, state government officials, and Trump administration officials, including Trump himself.

Events that political organizations, foreign governments and foreign government-linked groups, and special-interest groups hold at Trump properties, possibly to buy access to and curry favor with the Trump administration.

Instances in which President Trump and other White House officials have used their platform to publicly promote Trump Organization properties by mentioning or referencing them in official statements or on social media.

Trademarks to Trump businesses given final or preliminary approval by foreign countries since President Trump entered the White House.

Other interactions between foreign or domestic governments and the Trump Organization that defy categorization. Examples range from the president ordering his Bedminster, NJ golf club to give certain administration officials an exclusive discount to a former EPA Administrator trying to buy a mattress from the Trump Hotel in Washington.

And yet once again, the candidate that stands with women and the lgbtq community, had no qualms about taking 10-25 million from the Saudi Kingdom for her named charity. And one of those other candidates, the one who made a pledge to first due no harm, has no issue with killing a baby. So yeah, unless high as a kite Gary Johnson is the horse you want to back here, Trump most ethical of the bunch indeed.

Actually backwards, asinine, but most of all hypocritical, is the party that preaches science when it comes to climate change and their definition of a baby, but ignore science when it comes to biology and using a bathroom.

It warms my heart to see this piece of trash get the treatment he deserves. Which one of you posters started the chant?

That post is disingenuous at best. There's literally more than a thousand other reasons to boo him - some of which you've mentioned.

While that may be true, there's only one place that can claim the #1 mantle with respect to % of Pregnancies Aborted, and that's our nations capital, Washington DC. Ahead of New York, NJ, MD, etc.

Just stop. Your post was disingenuous at best. They didn't boo him because of abortion. Period. End of discussion.

They also didn't boo him out of some moral outrage, because come on, its the DMV, the moral compass here is non existent

Dude, I've been nice, but you've pushed it too far. We're done.

If you actually knew science behind transgender people, you would understand how effective sex change has become. You are literally the one who preach 40 year old guys with beards use same bathrooms as 8 year old girls. You are getting it backwards, but of course your scientific reasoning is that transgender person is just a guy in a drag, so you are basically not only clueless, but incredibly offensive as well.

You realize abortions are the below when Roe v. Wade made it through the courts. So, there you have it. Blasting those that are trying to reduce abortions and only seeing through that (now) fractured lens.

Now let's start with the real reasons to boo Trump.

1) He has plunged us into renewed deficit spending
2) He has f'd up the economy
3) He has no coherent plan for foreign policy
4) He is literally a serial liar
5) He has no plan for climate change - he stupidly advocated for coal - which use is still being reduced in the US

At least most of the sane Rs I know concede this... so there is that. They join me in...

Boooooooooooooooooo

I also realize that your biggest argument for abortion has been rape, even though rape constitutes 0.5% of abortions. Not 5%, not even a whole number, 0.5%. The baby or mother's life in danger makes up roughly 7%. So you refuse to speak about the 92.5% that have it because they refuse to be accountable for their actions.

To your other points:
Unemployment rate 3.7%, I get more of my money in my paycheck since he took over (not even factoring in inflation or increases), so no, he didn't f up the economy
Every politician is a serial liar, name me one that is above this?

Fact check in bold. (two out of three rape victims do not report their assault & incest victims rarely disclose their abuse even to family doctors. Why? Because medical professionals are mandated to report the crime to authorities.)

But that isn't the reason we should ignore you on this. My biggest argument is now that abortions are falling quickly due to what we are doing. There is a plan that is working. When abortions were illegal the number of abortions was rising and mostly unreported. I want an actual plan that works - one that you don't have.

If you don't understand the economy don't try to derail the conversation with a meaningless blip. He threw a tax stimulus at the economy when it wasn't needed buried us in debt and didn't increase GDP. And if we are talking about unemployment - let see - where did that start? Oh snap - Trump taking credit for something he didn't start.

You seem to be taking this issue personally for no reason. It's simple though, its a bathroom, with respect to the transgendered, go ahead and have your change and be who you feel you have the right to be. No one is taking away any vital rights form you. But when it comes to public restrooms, it should be mandated they use the restroom of the gender they were born into. A predator could easily manipulate these new laws to harm someone. Of course it can happen in any scenario with the same sex, but no reason to open up another possibility just to be politically correct when there's no need to be.

If you could reduce abortions or ban them, which would you choose? Can't choose both.
