Your smart President is making dumb tweets again, besides throwing his son under the bus.

In a strikingly ignorant tweet, Trump gets almost everything about California wildfires wrong

http://www.latimes.com/business/hiltzik/la-fi-hiltzik-trump-fires-20180806-story.html#

California wildfires are being magnified & made so much worse by the bad environmental laws which aren’t allowing massive amount of readily available water to be properly utilized. It is being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Must also tree clear to stop fire spreading!

Governor Jerry Brown must allow the Free Flow of the vast amounts of water coming from the North and foolishly being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Can be used for fires, farming and everything else. Think of California with plenty of Water - Nice! Fast Federal govt. approvals.

Right. I may not have accomplished a 10th of what she has. But I strive to always do it right and if I fail I don't claim success.

And speaking of Palin: a lot of Americans realized that McCain was already old at the time, and there was a significant probability he might pass out mid-term and that she could be sworn in as Potus.
It's something that no sane American wanted, and McCain didn't stand a chance for that reason.

Putting everything else aside, you shouldn't be calling Sarah Palin stupid. She's not. Media built a narrative, you still believe it.

WTH is/was Rand Paul doing in Russia?
Oh...
http://tass.com/politics/1016200

Figures.One of two who voted against the bipartisan sanctions bill (98-2). Either they’re paying him a lot or they have some serious kompramat.

Why is he inviting Russian lawmakers to DC? They’re continuing their attacks. They’re not our friends, Maybe hold out for them to mend their ways before the trip to Disney World?

To all the “better Russian than Democrat” people - fine. Move there.

Not at all, my opinion was based on her own statements, who cares what the media is saying.

resistance fever dreams...

Obama was President for 8 years.

When Barack Obama ran for President he was a 1st term Senator who voted "present" more than yea or nay.

Her family was a mess on her own. Her daughter is now on Teen Mom, can you imagine if Obama's daughters were on that show?

If you can't handle the media, Katie Couric, how you can handle real leaders of the world? She was on the edge of a breakdown when she ran, her people had to keep the news away from her.

She wanted to run in 2012 but Republicans didn't want her. See the 56 point drop. That's an insane drop.

Obama's daughters are twerking and smoking dope. The only difference, you don't care.

Only when they're dumb. Trump and Palin are that. You notice I said McCain had "better options" Republicans that weren't dumb. Even candidates where I disagree with on policy, say Romney/Ryan, at least they can sit next to another world leader and have a conversation. Can you imagine Sarah Palin and Putin? I even said I liked Kasich from the Republican side, I don't think he's dumb. And then if we look at some of the comments from you guys. mr-x was the first to mention Trump and impeachment, not me. He was his 3rd pick. Some of the stuff I'm saying now, is the same stuff you believed in as well. Go look at those old Sarah Palin threads, how many times guys mentioned she was hot. That's where those heads were at. And again, the more we got to know Palin, the more she dropped.

Everybody's dumb compared to you.

Your opinions are informed by the media narrative and your own bias and bigotry. You've never met Sarah or anyone from her family but reject actual evidence to the contrary.

Left wing nut jobs attacked Charlie Kirk and Candice Owens today. People besides me are wondering how long before this escalates to real violence.

What happens when they attack someone out with their family? Not everyone can afford bodyguards or has the political power to demand police protection. Democrats need to deescalate their calls for violence.

 

[enlytend]

Republican Party in 2008: Sarah Palin is the most unqualified person we can put on the presidential ticket.
Republican Party in 2016: Hold my beer.

Most people would say murdering people is real violence, we just went over that. Those were right wing nut jobs.

I don't agree with attacking anybody. This tho is for views. If you check his Twitter account, they were going around stirring it up. And as I pointed out before, she's a complete fraud. You see more violence at a Trump rally.

Obama was a first term senator from a failed city with terrible pubilc education, high crime, high murder rate. He has a marxist past, attended a church that preached Black Liberation Theology for over a decade.

But as the racist democrat on MSNBC, Chris Matthews put it, "He is articulate, bright and clean"; "he doesn't speak with a negro dialect"; And ZAP! he became the perfect blank slate for racist democrats to project their virtue on.

The state of the city he represented doesnt mean anything, but you mention that to make him look bad.

Marxist? Stop the name calling. Yes he might've attended weird church, but did he bring any of that into office? No. At least you didnt say "he's muslim". But what if a black man did all that Trump has done so far? yes, you and i know it- 100% he would've been impeached already. You biased.

CHris Matthews is a racist for his statement? So are you and other Trump supporters less "racist" than him or not?
Obama became their "racist blank slate for racist democrats to project their virtue on"? You're warped! Sounds more like you're projecting republicans racism on democrats with a comment like that.You also cant call those democrats that voted him in racist because republicans wouldn't have voted him in in the first place(cuz y'all more racist). Why do you think 9/10 blacks vote democrats? cuz republicans seem way more racist to them.
Worst thing a republican can do here is call someone else racist. sorry.Republicans lose that argument the fastest and easiest. And the tax cuts are a short term economic boost. Once they wear out reality will set in.

She wasnt stupid....but she wasn't smart either. She said alotta dumb sh*t. If she wasn't white and cute where would her political career have gone? nowhere, and you know that too.

She wasnt stupid....but she wasn't smart either. She said a lotta dumb sh*t. If she wasn't white and cute where would have political career gone? nowhere, and you know that too.

Kinda racist / misogynist. Sarah Paling and her husband built a construction business, she was elected to Governor of Alaska while raising five kids. She didn't say anything dumber than any other politician.

How many stupid things have you said, done with out the pressure of the media? Have you ever heard of women named Nancy Pelosi? She gets a complete pass from the media because she's a liberal.

Sounds like you hate the fact democrats beat Republicans in popular vote. Without electoral college(aka the rigged system)republicans would lose considerably more.

You're comparing what we might say vs. somebody that could be President? Pelosi isn't running. Pressure of media? If you can't handle the media, how are you going to handle real stuff? The bar is supposed to be higher for the "Leader of the free world".

How do you think Barack Obama got elected to the US Senate? He was a state politician before becoming a national politician.

Barack and Bill Aries, a marxist and domestic terrorist ( weather underground ), won several million $$ in federal grants to improve education in their city and failed completely.

Marxist? Stop the name calling. Yes he might've attended weird church, but did he bring any of that into office? No. At least you didnt say "he's muslim". But what if a black man did all that Trump has done so far? yes, you and i know it- 100% he would've been impeached already. You biased.

Sating facts isn't name calling. You're kind of a racist, victim.

CHris Matthews is a racist for his statement? So are you and other Trump supporters less "racist" than him or not?

Chris Matthews says a lot of stupid thing. He's a racist because like most liberals, he infantilizes minorities.

Obama became their "racist blank slate for racist democrats to project their virtue on"? You're warped!

That's a lot of liberal babel. You're not only ignorant of history, you've drank the koolaid.

If you're going to quote me, do it accurately. I said "the perfect blank slate for racist democrats to project their virtue on" Not "racist blank slate for racist democrats to project their virtue on".

Don't pretend the media didn't set out to destroy Palin. She may not have been the best person for the job but she could have done it.

You would have been ok with her being President of the United States? Sarah Palin?

Ahh.. "we been over that" ™. Charlie and Candice are not alt-right. They haven't murdered anyone.

FIFY: I don't agree with attacking anybody.. .but they had it coming. Saying things people don't agree with, having wrong thoughts.
