Re: Current Events Thread
Seems its John Kelly as the source tbh. The Atlantic is now claiming its the tip of the iceberg in their reporting. Buckle up, its gonna be a ride
I dismissed it when I heard it. I just can't see how any President would say such a thing. Does this Atlantic mag or the journo have good credibility? I never heard of it myself so don't know.
Re: Current Events Thread
They're definitely a left-leaning magazine, they've given millions to Democratic campaigns. But it doesn't mean it isn't true. Once we get closer to election a lot is going to drop on both candidates.

Savior? No. The establishment has always, always been worse than Trump. Whether people are fed up with his stupidity remains to be seen.

If you are able to see trump as some sort of sympathetic figure in all this then i seriously question your judgement...
The guy ran for president as a republican, independent and democrat...he has no ideology and no fucks to give
I didn't say he was a sympathetic figure, but if you think he's worse than W, or somehow things have gotten bad because of him, I don't know what to tell you.
To think politics suddenly got bad because of Trump is wrong. The media has gotten worse.

Yes, they are highly regarded and have been around for 150 years. There is no political slant, they've only endorsed a couple of presidential candidates since their inception, and one of their top contributors was a speech writer for George W. Bush. The story has also been verified by many other media outlets, including Fox News.
Trump has referred to people often as "losers" in public. I don't see this very shocking to be honest. It's par for the course and inline with everything we know about his behavior.
Re: Current Events Thread
Really? Like all the other controversies that were supposed to end him, all posted on this forum and were sworn were going to destroy him, but nothing did?
He was impeached and would have been booted out of office if it weren't for a criminally complicit republican party in the Senate who blocked the trial. He also had an AG who lied about the summary of the Mueller report (which you fell for) before it was actually released. This is before we get into all his other criminal and questionable behavior.
Biden can't even say Antifa. He waited over three months to speak about the riots. It doesn't poll well for him.
You can google this and find out it's false in about 1 minute. He's spoken out against rioting and violence consistently. Also it currently does poll well for him, as I just pointed out a page or so back. Americans see this mess and look to Biden as a leader on this, not trump.

Maybe you should Google it, because I did and it backed up what I said. 
The only thing I fell for was everyone saying he was going to be kicked out of office, he was going to jail, and he colluded with Russia. All of that was false. I'm not going to fall for anymore of it.

I mean you’re critical of all the same things trump is critical...and almost never critical of him.
That just seems bizarre.

Even now as there is plenty of evidence that Russia is involving itself in the election...and there’s evidence of trump welcoming it....you still shrug your shoulders at this...
This is why i said earlier that if we’re all in agreement that foreign influence is now an open and accepted practice.
I reject that the US influencing other countries’ elections has anything to do with this...i also reject the idea that foreign countries are involved in US elections is commonplace.
I have no gripe with the media...as the people who are the most vocal in their criticism also use MSM of their choice to support their way of thinking. It also absolves the viewer of their responsibility when they participate in MSM by viewing. Just watch tucker Carlson...absolutely no news just constant propaganda and opinion pieces. Why is it the highest rated ‘news’ source in the country?
The viewers take the blame not tucker

Re: Current Events Thread
The news channels are pathetic. Especially CNN and Fox. It's just constant dogging of the other side. They don't even qualify as news channels imo.
I do watch them for lol entertainment though.
