All purpose news and politics thread part v: The quickening

[WestPhillyPunisher]

We can only hope and IMO it's a thin one at that. Trump has done probably dozens if not a hundred things that have sunk other political careers. He's cheated on all of his wives, had affairs with porn stars and that's just his personal life. Any other candidate would have been sunk on just those things alone. Just recently he disrespected the National Anthem....ON FILM and just yesterday he disagreed with Jesus about loving your enemies. That sermon had zero effect on Trump and the annual prayer breakfast in the WH

And that was AFTER dopes like Republican Senator Susan Collins (a.k.a. Madam Pearl Clutcher) who voted no on removing Trump from office claimed that he learned his lesson from the impeachment trial and would be more introspective. To quote the immortal Bugs Bunny, wotta maroon!

Rachel Maddow reporting on how Republican Trump supporters tied up the phone lines that were supposed to be used to report results in Iowa. Messing with the Iowa election.

I can vouch for this.

Republican meme warriors try gay jokes against Mayor Buttegieg, misspell "caucuses" as "Caucasus."

Well, let's remember that the Caucasus Mountains are where we get the term Caucasian, and Mayor Pete has to be one of the whitest people I've ever seen.

I think they decided a gay and youthful upstart politician would fit the image of the party better than a senile old man who didn't act very assertive in front of the crowds....

LMAO, well it's a no brainer when you put it like that.

There is another reason why Trump won. Many white voters are also tired of the politicians' inability to find a solution to the illegal immigration problem.....

This is true.

Top Alabama cop said Nancy Pelosi should be targeted by a ‘roadside bomb’ for tearing up Trump’s speech

An Alabama cop is apologizing for a Facebook post where he said that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) could be targeted with a roadside bomb for daring to tear up President Trump’s State of the Union speech, the Daily Mail reports.

“Pelosi just ripped up his [speech],” Geraldine police department assistant chief Jeff Buckles wrote. “Road Side bomb on her way home and any other Dumbocrats.”

Buckles later removed the post and apologized for “venting.”

That's venting???

It gets monotonous listening to her, she has a spine of spaghetti. I hope she gets primaried.

I love that second one. The State of the Union address was more like a reality show and they used people as props for his dubious record on education and so forth. It was a less than subtle commercial for privately owned schools to line that pockets of Trump donors. And El Rushbo getting the Medal of Freedom? *sheesh* Probably the GOP will one day give one to Steven Miller too.

Venting my ebony posterior, that's issuing a threat against a member of the United States Congress. At the very least, that shitstain should be fired, at the most, he should be paid a visit by the Secret Service and have his ass arrested. There are far too many unstable nutbags out there that lean hard right who'd do something like that in a New York minute if they could get away with it.

I just watched the state of the union. Did anyone else see Nancy rip up Trump's like it was an Iowa caucus ballot or something?

God damn what a rant. I think he is spot on too. Preach!
