If I were George Soros, I'd take a long time to reflect on what I've spent my money on.

Funding the red wave?

It's what I've been saying this whole time about these urbanite and suburbanite tenderfoots that see everyone that lives in the icky red drumph supporting flyover states as a bunch of troglodyte deplorables, forgetting that much of these people and places they insult happen to be the entire country's bread basket

And water supply, and mine shaft, and dairyland, and manufacturing hub (yes, even making stuff, it's not blue cities, they tossed the factories out in the 80's to go high-tech, most of the former mill sites are shopping malls and empt office blocks that were built for a tech renaissance that in most places never came or died with the .coms if it did.)

Seriously these people have no idea how much they need us, not vice versa, which is funny when people like moviebob demand we start paying our "fair share" since we're all apparently cannibals out here, held up by "his" taxes.

"Butbutbut my side was supposed to win! The bad guys go to prison and the good guys celebrate in a feast that goes on forever! I'm the good guy! It's not faiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrr! Where's my free everything for life???"

"There will be schools named after him someday!" It's far worse than that soyboy, the tradition is that Presidents get warships named after them..... get ready for some carrier-air-wing-level pussy grabbing!

Why though?

Because Conservatives are retards who don't believe in climate change, think video games cause violence, and only care about making big business happy.
Trump is an idiot who would've lost against literally anyone but the worst Democratic Nominee that could've ever possibly been chosen.
Fox News for a long time was notoriously the ultimate in fake news. For the longest time I considered Republicans to be the most ridiculous, idiotic, and regressive thinking group of people on the planet.
Then The Left said "Hold my beer" roughly around 2010 and now we're here where you're Literally Hitler if you don't support mass islamic immigration or communism.

And this is why you lost in 2016.

Nice job missing the entire point.

Not to be a dick but the same could be said in your instance.

He asked me why I considered myself a leftist. I elaborated.

 

[AprilRains]

He asked me why I considered myself a leftist. I elaborated.

And said :autism: shit. That it was your honest opinion does not make it less :autism:.

 

[Vorhtbame]

Nice job missing the entire point.

No, dear, my point is that you didn't explain why you're a left-winger so much as why you simply cannot abide anyone who isn't, that everyone who doesn't agree with you is incurably stupid and corrupt, liars and losers.

You gave absolutely no positive reasons why you are left wing, only bile about those who aren't. Why should anyone side with you when all you have to offer is hate?

And that is why you lost in 2016.

 

[George Beorge]

And said :autism: shit. That it was your honest opinion does not make it less :autism:.

Fair enough. My bad. I should've just simplified it and cut out the other shit.

Sure, I'll agree.
I'll re-word it.
I think the environment should be protected and big businesses not given huge breaks.

That's an extremely hasty generalization, put simply*. And even if that was true, no conservative thinks those things anymore.

Trump is an idiot who would've lost against literally anyone

I bet Jeb Bush would beg to differ...

but the worst Democratic Nominee that could've ever possibly been chosen.

I'm glad that we can both agree on that.

Fox News for a long time was notoriously the ultimate in fake news.

Based on...?**

For the longest time I considered Republicans to be the most ridiculous, idiotic, and regressive thinking group of people on the planet.

I bet you huffed your own farts too. Did you ever think that anyone could be Republican or conservative based on logic, evidence, and reasoning?

Then The Left said "Hold my beer" roughly around 2010 and now we're here where you're Literally Hitler if you don't support mass islamic immigration or communism.

So basically, you were living in a sealed, airtight, ideological bubble of mid-2000s make before it was popped by Democrat retardation.

Nice job missing the entire point.

I don't think she did.

*Hint: don't confuse neoconservatives with regular conservatives.
**I ask because the only real sources for Fox being bad that I know of are leftist news organizations, who would be, by nature, heavily implicitly biased against, have vested interest in denouncing, and possibly even emotionally invested in going against Fox News.

 

[AprilRains]

I think the environment should be protected and big businesses not given huge breaks.

Much better.

I think most people would agree; the main conflict would be in the details, and the relative importance we assign to those goals as opposed to others. But it's a reasonable view.

That's nice, except we're already taking steps to do just that. What are you going to do about China and India? Until you can answer that, all of your environmentalism, even if you plan to start in America, is just meaningless hand-wringing and virtue signaling, or will be rendered as such in the future.

and big businesses not given huge breaks.

Except nobody is doing that under Trump's administration.

China does contribute more carbon than the rest of the world but that doesn't mean we should just not give a shit.

Except nobody is doing that under Trump's administration.

Massive tax and regulation cuts aren't giving breaks to big businesses?

PostEverything Perspective
The Potomac River should be open and free. Closing it for Trump’s golfing whims is outrageous.

The security zone inconveniences and endangers the public.

A fisherman on the Potomac. The Coast Guard has blocked public access to a popular stretch of the river for the security of high-ranking officials visiting Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Va. (Astrid Riecken for The Washington Post)

By Kay Fulcomer
Kay Fulcomer is conservation chairman for the Canoe Cruisers Association.
October 3 at 5:58 PM
I was born in Washington and I learned to do white-water boating on the Potomac River. It became a lifelong love. Since then, I’ve run at least 150 rivers in different places out West, in the Smokies and in Florida — but the Potomac is home. Its water levels constantly change, producing channels and taking them out, and yet the river itself is available all year, rarely freezing over. Its stretches of flat water, broken up by rapids, are a wonderful resource for beginning canoers and kayakers. Even running right through the nation’s capital, it feels wild, edged by forest and wildflowers; great blue herons fly overhead.

But now President Trump is making it harder for people to enjoy the river. Whenever he visits his golf course in Sterling, Va., the Coast Guard cordons off the entire width of a popular stretch of the Potomac. Since Trump took office, the shutdowns came so frequently that in July 2017, the Coast Guard decided to create a permanent security zone. (The lawsuit the Canoe Cruisers Association has filed against the Coast Guard notes 30 visits over the past year and a half.)

Following the president’s whims, the Coast Guard enacts closures at the last minute, announcing them over a marine radio frequency which most canoes and kayaks aren’t equipped to receive. A boat with armed members of the Department of Homeland Security, the Coast Guard, and the Maryland Natural Resources Police patrols the area. Paddlers who try to cross are stopped and questioned, and sometimes are required to turn back. When the Coast Guard made this rule, it was legally required to answer the public’s comments — including the CCA’s proposal of access channels that would ensure safety for all. But there has been no official response.

This is not actually about trump. The author who says they have spent time all over in waterways doesn't understand the power of the Coast Guard.

Any US flagged vessel in the world can be boarded by the Coast Guard without any probable cause. They have far reaching powers. That is what the author should be bitching about....except you know TRUMP.

No, you're right, we should just dump untold amounts of money, time, and effort into this problem even if it's completely futile.

 

[Iwasamwillbe]

Massive tax and regulation cuts aren't giving breaks to big businesses?

Oh I thought that when you were just talking about giving "breaks to big businesses", you meant something about like when Obama bailed out the banks.

Now, as for "massive tax and regulation cuts", I'm not sure how you think taxes and regulations work (and honestly, I know almost nothing about them, except from what I learned and remember from high school economics), but considering that the multi-billion dollar legacy media were so against these, I'm going to air on the side of them not being "breaks to big businesses".

Sure, I'll agree.

I agree with almost everything you said, and I'm much closer to the Republican party than the Democrats. A lot of the hard line social conservative issues of the 80s and 90s have died down quite a bit, and nobody really cares about Evangelicals anymore because they're just voting against progressives at this point. The "centrists get the bike lock, too" attitude will continue to keep me miles away from anything blue.
