Trump Derangement Syndrome - Orange man bad. Read the OP! (ᴛʜɪs ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴅ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴋɪᴡɪ ғᴀʀᴍs ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡs ɴᴏᴡ) 🗿🗿🗿🗿

I mean, Trump would still be wrong (unless the claim is Obama helped Al Qaeda), thought he double standard is what tickles me. People can accuse Trump of treason left right and center with no further specifications, a federal JUDGE can accuse Flynn of it without any elaboration. But Trump does it, and suddenly its bad.

Obama's cucking under to Iran should get him into court for treason.
 
There are people on stocktwits that still think Trump literally said to "inject lysol" and sperg when you tell them he never said it. Funny they can never produce video of him actually saying it.
It's extremely frustrating that some people are just so adverse to facts no matter how much you try to convince them.

But then I try to remember that you can't change someone's mind with facts an opinion they didn't reach with facts.

BUT HE SAID DISINFECTANTS! DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE...

Like Hydrogen Peroxide?

Then trying to explain disinfectants have been injected for medical purposes like Intravenous Hydrogen Peroxide therapy.
 
Explain me the policies that Trump Republicans have versus Establishment Republicans have.

Are the Democrats NOW Establishment or Trump Democrats?

Trump isn't really a republican.
Bernie isn't really a democrat.

There isn't such clear division anymore. You're with a 2 party system so people otherwise un-moored are forced to align to what they can.
Case in point - former Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull - conservative in name only. The only conservative ideal Turnbull had was conserving government funds for he and his rich friends. His social ideals were pure liberal.

Trump has socially liberal policies (hes handled foreign matters with diplomacy and not endless wars) with touches of fiscal conservative leanings - he's a "common sense" conservative.
Establishment repubs had socially status-quo conservative policies with liberal spending - their spending was just into the war chest and not into the community.
Up until late-stage Obama, the dems were the same.

GVSU president urges Allendale Township to relocate Confederate soldier statue
Grand Valley State University’s president is urging Allendale Township to relocate a Civil War statue featuring a Confederate soldier on display in a township park.

In a letter sent to Allendale Township Supervisor Adam Elenbaas Friday, GVSU President Philomena V. Mantella suggested the statue be moved from the veterans display to a different location. Grand Valley’s main campus is in Allendale.

“First, given the discord between the statue’s educational value and its symbolism, I would request consideration of relocating it within the township to a space that would allow for proper historical context and dialogue,” Mantella wrote in the June 25 letter.

The statue is currently located within the township’s Veterans Garden of Honor in Allendale Community Park. This memorial, off Lake Michigan Drive and 68th Avenue, features nine life-sized monuments, each of which depict a single soldier, aside from the statue in question.

The controversial statue features a Union soldier standing back-to-back with a Confederate soldier, each holding their respective flags. An enslaved child is depicted at the base of the statue holding a sign stating, “Freedom to slaves.”
Apparently the Veteran's Gardern of Honor is not the proper place for a statue of American veterans honoring national reconciliation and abolition of slavery. Putting all these women and aliens into positions of power is really paying off!

In an effort to increase understanding of the issues stirred up by the statue, Mantella also offered to provide the support of university experts in fields such as sociology and history.

2) incinerate journalists
3) bbq time, everybody! i bring der brats

Hillary, you are associated with the Obama administration (in which Obama had an unprecedented number of deportations and many kids in cages). Trump being tougher on immigration has led to less kids in cages because of tighter border security. If you’re going to criticize anyone on this, start with Obama.

Times like these I wish I had a Twitter account, though I know I'd be banned (again) for talking back to a bluecheck.
 
Another thought, people talk like he isn't "Draining the Swamp" but draining it doesn't imply going after the corrupt if you think about it, it implies exposing them. Which honestly he's doing a wonderful job at.
Think it's more a difference of opinion on what constitutes corruption.

If you think of the swamp as politicians selling out the country or bureaucrats working in the offices of the FBI or state department that are working against US interests or running corrupt investigations, then Trump is doing relatively well about combating it.

But if you think of "the swamp" as lobbyists and businesses being able to make more money then Trump is awful and actively promoting it. Which has an intensely stupid vibe to it when you think of how the major thing Trump ran on was trying to help US businesses to tempt them into bringing in more jobs. On the lobbyist end there's a weird misunderstanding where people don't seem to get that congress doesn't write legislation, but rather lobbyists do, since it costs a fortune to pay for all the lawyers that actively write the legislation that eventually gets voted on.

Plus since there's been so many different groups each trying to get their own vaguely different legislation through, this means you'd have an even fucking larger amount of money going through lobbyists. So we end up with a bunch of people thinking if Trump does the same as pretty much all of congress and has the White House talk to lobbyists about what sort of legislation they could write up, that this means he's swampy as hell.
