Greatest disaster in US history

[Brainonska511]

I was never taught any of these in school. My parents and friends taught me. Why in hell would you want schools teaching this? Do you want schools teaching your kids I dunno.. Saudi Arabian ethics? Really that's what you want? Someone teaching your kids systems of ethics you don't accept?

He wants people to be indoctrinated, but only if he gets to choose the type of indoctrination.

Its a Christian thing I think.

Gee, where's the ususal loons with their images of fainting couches, clutched pearls and safe spaces in this thread?

Oh that's right....they too are whiney little bitches who agree with this pathetic display of whiney bitchiness.

The snowflake syndrome is reaching epic proportions.

I know right, I initially thought this thread was about Pearl Harbor. Silly me.

Hey, just wondering if any of you wannabe tough guys have recovered enough from the last few beatdowns to take another.

This was a great disaster because the American electorate now officially no longer cares about the truth. The implications of this for the future are staggering. It goes way beyond the specific impact of a Trump presidency. We have a president-elect who brazenly lies to the American public on a daily basis, and practically no one even cares. If the American people can disregard such serial lying on the part of a candidate and elected POTUS, then we can be convinced of anything.

I'm afraid the internet has undermined the foundations of democracy. Welcome to online America circa 2016, where facts are like a commodity that we pick and choose based on preference. Don't like what you're reading on the news? Go read fake news instead if it tells you what you want to hear. It's literally one click away. And it doesn't matter who it comes from. Even a hostile foreign power can manipulate the perceptions of Americans. This is how credulous we have become as a result of virulent partisanship. Literally anything is now possible.

We have had a president who brazenly lied to the American public on a daily basis for years, and practically no one even cares. It hasn't killed us yet.

Do you actually believe the two are equally bad or is this just the habit of mouthing off like a grade-schooler on daily basis?

I think OP is correct on one thing.

People care more about their party affiliation than about truth and are easily brainwashed into believing Putin is the savior of America and Americans are evil.

This thing is not about who won. Its that 60 million people didn't care about facts or ethics. That's almost 20% of the country. And it doesn't even count their kids who can't vote.

With that kinda division.. do we really have a country?

You just described Hillary voters. She was the most corrupt candidate to ever run for high office. America got justice when she lost. I'll take that.

IT MUST BE TRUE BECAUSE YOU PUT IT IN A BOLD FONT!!

I'M CALLING BULLSHIT AND I'M RIGHT BECAUSE I SAID IT USING CAPITAL LETTERS AND A BOLD FONT!

Trump is getting ready to break all the liberal's toys. This is gonna be so fun.

Wait, I thought you guys said it can't be corruption if there are no actual charges brought nor any convictions? Right? Isn't that why you think trump is as clean as can be?

Or is this another translation error where in your right wing language the word "corrupt" doesn't mean the same thing as it does in English?

It will certainly be funny watching him try and when he succeeds it will be even funnier watching the unintended consequences hurt his supporters even more! Can't wait!

Shit! You think suicide among old white males is high now? Just wait until your cult leader disappoints you for four straight years. Lol! Better stock up on opioids!

He's laying for her, trust me. If Obama doesn't pardon her, her ass is grass, as soon as his team takes office. The DOJ was politicized under Obama and she was protected. You know it and I know it. We get a new DOJ and perhaps they might do their job?

The only thing I know it's that you are an old useless man who has no clue what's going on in reality.


Your tears of disappointment will be so, so delicious!

It's posts like this, where I really wish this forum was an un-moderated free for all, with no swear filter.

Ooh swear words! Those could really hurt someone's fragile ego.

Swear filter is optional.

huh?

It's a disaster SIMPLY because it's the poor and middle class having problems in America today (the biggest portion of society)...and Trump, ACCORDING TO ALL COMMON SENSE, is not the guy who will fix things for exactly those people. He will do exactly the opposite. Just fricking LOOK at his choices. White, ultra-rich billionaire moguls.

People in the US so fricking retarded they think that old, white-haired ultra-rich "moguls" care for the disadvantaged? Oh hell they ARE that retarded because this is indeed what they voted for, as absurd as it is.

So let's think for a minute after taking a couple of deep breaths. The black president we've had for the past eight years didn't fix this shit you're so hysterical about but the old rich white woman was definitely the answer? Is that it?

Democrats have been promising for many, many decades that they're going to fix everything. They haven't and eventually the electorate gets tired of that group of assholes with empty promises and they elect the other group of assholes with empty promises.

Everything in Spain is going to continue as it has. Try to calm down.

huh?

WE HAVE HAD A PRESIDENT WHO BRAZENLY LIED TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC ON A DAILY BASIS FOR YEARS, AND PRACTICALLY NO ONE EVEN CARES. IT HASN'T KILLED US YET.

Does that help?

I think he was talking about Reagan, not sure.

And these same people wanted a congenital liar named Hillary as president. They should just come right out and say it. They don't want a white male as president. They can come up with whatever toothless arguments they are embracing on any given day but it's clear what is going on.

No white male republicans as president are going to be accepted in their march towards utopia.

It could turn into one, but at this point, it's not.
But I do think it's the last stage of decline in America's global leadership and delusions of "exceptionalism." Which is not necessarily a bad thing for Americans.

Republicans are the "right" party in the US, aye? The anti-abortion, anti-education, pro-Christianity, climate change denying lads? Or is that the democrats? Or the GOP?

Y'all got these weird party names.

Regardless, forbidding the leader of that sort of group from taking the highest echelon of power, can only be a good thing.

The Democrats are the classic right wing party. The Republicans (GOP is the same party) are like Ulster Unionists on bath salts.

if by 'toys' you mean the environment and public education, then you take some perverse joy in things.
