State of the Union

[brenthutch 383]

I expected Trump to pull down his pants, take a dump and start throwing turds at the Dems, I could have not been more wrong.  He is killing it!

[gowlerk 1,910]

Using the occasion to present Rush Limbaugh with the Medal of Freedom is pretty darn close to flinging turds!

Well, he's also flinging non-stop lies. Maybe that's why The Speaker tore her copy up and tossed it. Poor little impeached POTUS.

[brenthutch 383]

What non-stop lies?  I heard some exaggerations but for the most part it was a list of demonstrable accomplishments.

It was a great moment...Rush Limbaugh a National Icon.  Hell they will be speaking of Rush long after your dead.

Agreed

“I would like a medal for smoking cigars, is what I’m saying.” Rush Limbaugh said.

He got his wish.

Pretty Ironic - that.

But hey - let's make fun of a cancer victim anyway - it makes us feel better.

it wasn't a state of the union address, it was a trump rally.  he doesn't know how to act any other way when he is in front of a microphone.  i am also not surprised that someone calls his lies exaggerations as his fan boys are fanatical.  too stupid to realize that by backing this idiot, they are selling out their country.  all i hear when asked about why folks support him is "my 401k is doing pretty well".  i hope it is worth it, selling out country for a retirement that wouldn't be needed had they not decimated the social security.

[turtlespeed 212]

I have an Idea.

Let's elect Adults this time around.

These petulant children we have pretending to be leaders is fucking ridiculous.

 

Pelosi snubs Trump on the introduction.

Trump snubs her back with a deliberate missing handshake. (Probably)

Pelosi rips up an historic document.

 

I remember this type of behavior in the 8th grade.

shit, we were better than this in 8th grade!  that's when we were still allowed to get paddled.  there are no repercussions to the criminal behavior and that is the root of the problem.  not until everyone puts aside their political ideology and realize that we are americans, not republicans or democrats, and that certain things are wrong and we won't allow them will anything ever change.  we don't have to swing everyone, just enough grass roots leaders that can all reach a few to make the change visible.  then maybe we can take the time to fix things at the highest levels.  i KNOW we can do it, otherwise i wouldn't be trying.

 

i'm not trying to fix everything and have no illusions that anything has ever been different, but it was at least in the shadows then.  i want it back there if it happens and stop affecting me and mine.  you can't even have a civil conversation in some places now because of the mango mussolini.

It's not just him.  Pelosi is just as much a petulant little child as he is.  Except - this time he showed more class.

Why not, you elect president somebody who makes fun of grabbing women by the pussy, gold star families, physically disabled reporters, native people etc. A little chuckle at the irony of this karma is well within the clearly established bounds of American society.

Think he's faking his cancer?

Given that he claimed Michael J. Fox was faking his disease, I see no reason to give any respect to Lush. He's a drug addict, let his household help go to jail, big time racist, misogynist, spreader of lies and conspiracies. Yeah, let's give that guy a medal.

It's not making fun of someone when you return the respect as they have given others.

Trump has never showed class. Not a drop. Ever.

Would you be as agreeable if it was, say, Rachel Maddow?

Obviously he has - since he showed more than Pelosi.  

More than zero is still some.

you are correct, and the ones who show signs of treason, which is how i view voting for party over truth but am going to start looking at previous records, then i will call for their removal as well.  i am not party affiliated, and damned glad of it seeing the disorganization of the democrats.  i plan on choosing truth over lies, and have even contracted a former spec ops psyops guy for the campaign.  he said it was his easiest yet, spreading truth.

Class includes:

Paying a porn star. Making fun of a gold star family. Making fun of a disabled person. Praising nazis. Denying science. Stealing from a charity. Setting up a fake university. Joking about committing sexual assault.

But Pelosi tearing up some paper, now that is outrages.

. . . and I used to give you credit for not being intentionally naive.

1) What of those things above, did you witness DJT doing at the state of the union address?

2) What of those things above, did you witness Pelosi doing?

You know damn well it wasn't just tearing up a few pieces of paper, any more than than a guy with a missile in Iran did some stuff to a plane.

She petulantly threw a temper tantrum.

She said it was the courteous thing to do, because she couldn't control her temper.

Adults don't win.  Trump does.  Pelosi is doing what works.

Welcome to the new world of American politics.  The days of the classy statesmanship of an Obama or a Bush I are over.
