Well, not just the right wing. Americans world wide are known for their entitled expectations and arrogance. Add to that Americans becoming the Instant Gratification Nation. It's wide spread. In my opinion there are far too many people (so many of them of the right wing persuasion) who lack the intelligence, temperament or skill set to balance their self-involvement in a world designed to cater to it. It creates anger, resentment, anxiety, inferiority and a hunger to actually get it on the level decent people do but their shortcomings work against them. Trump has given them permission to embrace those shortcomings and abuse the world with them.

Dunno much about the ROTW but Newt set them to abusing the rest of America back in 1994 & it's become entrenched in the meanwhile. Rich Republicans have feasted on divisive wedge issues ever since.

I've been pretty critical of Brad Parscale and the shadiness surrounding him. He's been on the radar for a while now. Will be interesting to see where it goes.

This may explain some of the bigly squirming being done as of late by our GOP comrades.

http://www.businessinsider.com/mueller-questions-rnc-digital-operation-trump-campaign-russia-2017-12

It struck a serious nerve on Reddit. It's got 10x more votes than just about any other article on their page and it's being downvoted HARD there. Bots are working overtime today on that one.

This is one of the potential big ones, I really do hope he turns every stone there.
You guys remember this one?

https://teapainusa.wordpress.com/20...ion-theory-between-trump-tower-and-alfa-bank/

IIRC then to get the precision needed for cambridge analytica and microtargetting campaigns, they needed help with the voter data for profiling. If it turns out that they got this data from Russia. Game Over.

Oh yeah, totally have that in the back of my mind too. This is off the scales level of shady if there's any links they can connect.

It's gonna happen guys.


Ask yourself the question "Will Trump do this incredibly stupid and dangerous and destructive thing that he has threatened to do?"


Of course he will! Like the scorpion, it's in his nature to do the most stupid thing possible.

ROFLMAO. What happened FIVR? Surely you have an explanation.

Paul Manafort files a lawsuit naming Mueller, Rosenstein and the Justice Department as defendants who have overstepped their authority. Interesting...I wonder which traitors in Congress will rush to Mr. Manafort's defense and pledge support for this lawsuit?

So you guys are having a "look at how they were wrong" circle jerk over a thread clearly marked as RUMOR?

Seriously?

Oh the irony! I know you haven't had many debate wins while trying to defend Trump, but man. This is really pathetic. No one declared this as fact. The discussion opened as nothing more than RUMOR and was debated as a RUMOR.

Coming from the party that declared these as fact, the irony is astounding.

The right-wing conspiracies of fear we were told were definitely happening under Obama (but didn't):
*We aren't in FEMA camps.
*We aren't under Sharia law.
*Where's our "death panels"?
*There was no "race war."
*Obama never invaded Texas
*No Obama Brown Shirt Army.
*No ban on Bibles.
*No Christmas ban.
*No Martial Law.
*No Obama staying in power and becoming dictator for life
*Disease wasn't spread to imprison Americans.
*Obama didn't kill his critics.
*Jade Helm 15!!! LOL
*They're coming for our guns!
*unemployment will hit double digits
*the economy will crash

Let's face it, the right-wing keeps their base by making them irrationally wet-pants scared of the most unbelievable crap.

But you guys want to fault others for discussing a rumor as a rumor and never taking it as fact.

Yeah....

No.

I totally agree about the lies cons pushed over Obama, I've used several examples you cite in the past to argue with cons. But today the libs have become the new cons and they do the same to Trump... so it wasn't right when it was done to Obama, but you think it is right to do with Trump...

No. The difference here is this from the start was clearly labeled as an unfounded rumor.

I know this difference can be hard for you to grasp, but it is a significant one.

There is a vast difference between discussing something as a RUMOR and declaring something as a fact.

Is not RUMOR clearly marked in the title? OP may have stated he believed the rumor, however, he never presented it as fact. How do I know? Because he labeled it clearly as a RUMOR.

And then most of the people on the left pointed out it was a rumor and was unlikely to happen. I imagine you would consider that fact to be significant as well?

If you're calling out the OP specifically then you aren't really responding to the conversation as it was about liberals generally and not the OP.
