Trump MAGAThread XI: Button, Button, Who's Got The Button?

[Petrasylvania]

Well then I guess by that same logic there was no manipulation of the Democratic primaries then.

Everyone knows Crooked Hillary rigged the primaries, silly.

Sarcasm aside I am starting to get bored of the double standards; where things that are considered prima facie evidence of corruption and manipulation of the Democratic primary are somehow not evidence at all when applied to the General.

^Somebody who has no idea what being a Senator entails.

Tell me about the strenuous work involved in being a senator.

For instance, spending ten hours a day in meetings and then having to fly back home to constituents who think you do nothing all day.

Another reason to vote Trump out. Here we have an administration which is so completely "bought" by corporate America, including oil companies. Those oil CEOs love it when Trump goes onto Twitter and pretends that Climate Change isn't real. "Oh its cold in the northeast, we must need some of that global warming! Has the check from Exxon Mobil been cashed yet? I love getting that Exxon money."

The entire coast of the US is at risk of being opened up to oil exploration against the objections of coastal state governors. All the associated oil spill risks that Deepwater Horizon demonstrated are going to come to fruition unless Trump's administration is taken down as soon as possible.

These midterms have to go well for Democrats. The stakes are too high to squander this year on stupid strategy, which is what I'm seeing unfortunately. There are so many vectors of attack that exist against Trump, but an opposition message isn't sufficiently being carried.

Wow

I never thought you'd be part of the people who want Trump out. My question to you, Sai, and sorry if it is too personal, how did you get to this point? Honest question.

Sai has flip-flopped on wanting Trump in or wanting Trump out about fifty thousand times at this point. I think he got to this point by being torn between the impulses of wanting to gloat when liberals get mad and wanting to object to policies that might personally harm him. I'm sure he'll flip-flop again soon.

You're yet another person on here who has a conclusion about me which is dead wrong. I haven't really supported Trump for a long while now and my post history should bear this out. Sure, I like how Trump is deporting 200,000+ El Salvadorans, but this isn't worth Trump wrecking the US' environment and potentially setting the stage for another Stock Market collapse.

In opposing Trump, I am choosing country over my social conservative wish list getting fulfilled. There is simply too much going on under the Trump administration that I don't like seeing. I don't like his domestic and economic agenda and I'm not liking the outcomes. He is the swamp, the most corrupt executive ever; giving power to Goldman Sachs and other corporate lobbyists who have a vested interest in gutting the EPA, FCC, FTC and so on. The very agencies which are meant to intervene in the public interest against corporate shenanigans and malfeasance. The fact still is that Trump is allowing regulatory capture to happen on a massive scale.

If it really came down to Oprah vs Trump in 2020, I don't think I can vote for either given that both likely won't be serious candidates. I've seen enough conduct and actions by Trump to definitely know at this point, that I don't want him in elected office and as for Oprah, she'd need to convince me that she isn't just another celebrity who doesn't know jack about governing who thinks that they can do a better job by virtue of being some TV star- just like Trump. I'm not interested in another faux populist. I say NO to a repeat of 2016's primary season.

I want a serious candidate who has a solid policy platform and message. As one example, Bernie Sanders (like him or not) fits that criteria.

In the event that the two presidential candidates aren't serious people who have a genuine interest in governing, it may well have to come down to which VP I'd like better.

If Gary Johnson hasn't played enough EU4 to know where Halep is then he's not fit to be President of anything.

What 'five'? They started waaaay last night

[Vassenor]

Trump waives criminal punishments for convicted banks, including Deutsche Bank, to whom he owes $130,000,000-$300,000,000

So how's the swamp draining going?

what are you doing in my swamp

The Obama administration -- whose official policy was to never jail bankers regardless of their wrongdoing and the harm it caused -- had already given waivers to all the affected banks. The Trump administration has extended those waivers for years more.

Must have been a hard choice for Donny. I can picture him in that tired old Two Buttons cartoon choosing between "FUCKOBAMA" and "BUTTER UP DEUTSCHE BANK".

[Kramania]

So Trump allows the media in for an entire meeting when normally they'd be kicked out, but he's an authoritarian who wants to shut down free press.

Hmm.

So how many times has he screamed for CNN to be shuttered since the election?
