That's what I find funny. Like I'm a black dude who can trace my lineage back generations to slavery times. Pretty sure I was here before trump and a lot of white people. I'd love to see them tell me to go back where I came from

Sent to this some friends who are Trump supporters. The responses are so disappointing. Thought it was one of the funniest things they've read in a while, said it doesn't matter what he says he's what this country needs right now. Hate all you want

I'd be more reassured by this if I believed the people who would be in those positions of power would be interested in making those plays when the time came.I know no one wants to play the waiting game with Trump, we all wanted the guy impeached yesterday. I'm just pointing out that this isn't as black and white of an issue as people here seem to think it should be. There is a possibility that waiting for a better position of power is the better play to make here.
"If pigs could fly, then yes, a pig airport would be a good idea."
Creating flying pigs isn't something the American public will be deciding in a year and a half. I think this conversation has run it's course if this is how you're going to respond to me. Thanks for the previous replies though, I did appreciate the conversation."If pigs could fly, then yes, a pig airport would be a good idea."
The post I was responding to was specifically referencing the AOC part of the comment.And once again, Trump's words holding true for Omar doesn't make them any less disgusting.
Focusing on merely how Trump's comments doesn't fit AOC's legal citizenship I feel is missing the forest for the trees.
it's impossible to pick up enough seats to remove him, beyond that it feels pretty fucking unlikely we'd even get 51 senate seats in a situation where Trump is reelectedIf the democrats win the Senate, then yes it would be a better position.
Clearly what Trump wanted to say was : I"m fine with white immigrants. But if you are not white, then you are an immigrant even if you were born here, so go away.
America is turning into a fucking nazi state and no one is doing anything

I'm well aware of the numbers, which is why I'm apprehensive about starting the process now.it's impossible to pick up enough seats to remove him, beyond that it's pretty fucking unlikely we'd get 51 senate seats in a situation where Trump is reelected

You were saying that impeachment is a bad strategy because who knows it might fail and they'll spin it for their benefit.That has...nothing to do with what I said. I'd not be trying to convince republicans of anything, I'd be trying to convince everyone else. If you're telling me that politics and propaganda have 0 influence on an election then yeah, we're going to disagree here. People who voted for Trump or didn't vote at all either need to change their vote, or vote dem next election. Politics will effect that and nothing you say will 'educate' me to believe otherwise.
Why are you friends with people like this? Get some better fucking friends.
The fact you treat these views as just "political", feels a bit troubling.Nah. I don't define people by their political views. Besides these are people I've known since childhood.

It's all good, we're both frustrated with the government.Sorry, I was flippant. We both clearly want Trump gone.
I just think it's not a good bet to place your faith in an institution that the Republicans have been visibly and specifically tuning to make it harder for Democrats to win for basically the last forever.
Nancy's (supposedly) playing chess, while the Republicans are playing Calvinball.

I know why people wish for this but this would be a disaster for this country. America would rally around Republicans seeing it as a time of grief and feel that a Republican needs to be elected to replace the lost Republican. Let the racist live until after he loses.
Racism isn't a political view. Your friends just laughed away racism and now I can see why you're still friends with them since open racism by the President and your own friends is just "politics" to you.Nah. I don't define people by their political views. Besides these are people I've known since childhood.
Your friends are racists.Nah. I don't define people by their political views. Besides these are people I've known since childhood.

Since when has racism been a political view? WTF...Nah. I don't define people by their political views. Besides these are people I've known since childhood.
Fair enough. As I've said in my previous posts, I see merit in trying to impeach him now, I just also see the potential for that to backfire. 2018 did show that the public is willing to vote against his party though and I'm hoping that continues into 2020 and we wont have to discuss impeachment anymore.You were saying that impeachment is a bad strategy because who knows it might fail and they'll spin it for their benefit.
Fact is, the reason why it's so easy for them to influence public opinion and spin things however they want has a lot to do with how little of a fuck they give. Americans are stupid and they love confidence almost as much as they love racism.
The Democrats' public image is that they are pathetic and weak, and them consistently acting so goddamn afraid of losing one "independent" vote (that wasn't going to vote for them anyway) doesn't help fix that problem.
Pelosi and Co. saying impeachment isn't worth it/harmful to country "unity"/whatever is not a strategy that makes much sense. It's just laziness and cowardice.
Impeachment was never going to be a popular proposition from the outset. You build support for it, and you influence public opinion by making a public case for impeachment while being united as a party for it.
But that requires work and leadership, which the Democratic party lacks right now. So instead all we get is bullshit calls for unity while their lackeys tweet condescending attacks directed at progressive congresswomen that end up being the basis for Trump's racist twitter vomits.
Nah. I don't define people by their political views. Besides these are people I've known since childhood.
The tweets are certainly being deemed as racist.
Nah fuck this. I get the logic but I'm also just fucking exhausted and want to see the fat fuck roll over dead ASAP. Waking up and not having to think that nuclear war could occur within the hour would be all the solace I'd need, regardless of whatever garbage Republican may be next in line.I know why people wish for this but this would be a disaster for this country. America would rally around Republicans seeing it as a time of grief and feel that a Republican needs to be elected to replace the lost Republican. Let the racist live until after he loses.
As are your relatives.
