monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

@maporsche,

If that stick cartoon is designed to justify the statement of yours that I criticized, Ma, it failed.

The level of sophistication of the drawings is quite apropos, however, I'll give you that.

Just watched Trump's 'press conference'. I freaking am at a loss for words. Very disturbing.

@McGentrix,

Yeah, what's a little lighthearted depiction of violence against a news network that has been regularly targeted by the same President, right?

This will certainly defuse tensions and heal the country.

Twitter really needs to shut down Trump's account. I think probably 75% of the country would support that decision.

He must have violated the TOS at some point.

@maporsche,

If you want to talk about assholes, Ma, take a look at these "free speech advocates."

Piss all over the the audience and the speaker they came to hear and make a spectacle out of your sorry self, eh?

However, I don't disagree with you: [the "antifa"] should uncover their faces and OWN their conviction to the cause.

Absolutely. And denounce violence. And cease destruction of property. Where individuals act criminally in these ways, penalties ought to be precisely the same as any other individuals who so act.

Interesting graph which shows a correlation between the periods of heaviest racial tension and the installation of monuments to the Confederacy:

Donald Trump Defends ‘Friend’ Steve Bannon: ‘A Good Man’ Who Gets ‘Unfair Press’

Quote:

President Donald Trump defended his White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, calling him a “friend” and a “good man.”
“Look, I like Mr. Bannon. He is a friend of mine,” Trump said during a statement in Trump Tower on Tuesday, when asked about Bannon’s future at the White House.

Recent reports speculated that Bannon was about to be fired, citing dissent among White House Democrats with his behavior.

The president left Bannon’s future at the White House uncertain, saying that “we’ll see,” but commented that he was treated poorly by the media.

“I like him. He is a good man. He is not a racist. I can tell you that,” Trump said. “He is a good person. He actually gets a very unfair press in that regard.”

Trump reminded the media, however, that he was successful in the Republican primaries before Bannon joined his campaign.

“We’ll see what happens with Mr. Bannon. He is a good person and I think the press treats him frankly very unfairly,” Trump concluded.

Maybe the most disgusting thing about these cheese-eaters is that they're so disingenuous and phony, eh?

They should just come out and say: "I don't support be First Amendment and am helping organize an effort to have it repealed,"

Instead they dishonestly say **** like "I fully support the First Amendment. I especially like it because whatever I call "hate speech" is prohibited by it."

In other words, they only want to repeal or amend it. They don't support it, they reject it.

They call for Trump's assassination and that's fine. That's NOT hate speech. They can't even abide by their own perverted notion of the First Amendment.

Them boys, they just aint honest.

It is incredible to me that that jackass in the White House equates Washington and Jefferson to Lee and Jackson. Washington and Jefferson did not make war on their own nation to preserve slavery. Lee and Jackson did.

A monkey as president would not be as embarrassing as this right-wing ape.

@Setanta,

Sometimes when he's sharing the stage or podium with others, I can see the embarrassment on their faces as he speaks.

I don't doubt that for a moment. I don't torture myself by watching him, however.

The British of the time would probably disagree with you.

Trump, he ROCKS, eh!?

Quote:

"When you say alt-right..." Mr Trump said in an exchange with a reporter, using a term for right-wing groups.

"Okay, what about the alt-left that came charging at... the alt-right? Do they have any semblance of guilt? What about the fact that they came charging... with clubs in their hands?"

Speaking at the White House on Monday, the US president had said that the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis and white supremacists were "repugnant" to everything Americans held dear.

But at the bad-tempered press conference at Trump Tower on Tuesday, Mr Trump said that those defending the statue had also included "many fine people"

It became clear that the president views the Charlottesville unrest as far from a one-sided affair. Mixed in among the white supremacists, he said, were some good, peaceful people protesting the removal of a statue (of a man who led an army against the US government). And there were plenty of violent individuals among the counter-protesters as well.

When the president on Saturday said there were "many sides" to blame, he meant it.

That's from the cheese-eatin BBC, and naturally it quotes him very selectively, leaving out some of the best ****, which I might post later. He really pissed off the press when he called out Antifa, that's for sure.

Notice how the sleazy BBC won't even say Lee's name, but only say, in parentheses, want they want you to know about him. What a joke:

"Mixed in among the white supremacists, he said, were some good, peaceful people protesting the removal of a statue (of a man who led an army against the US government)."

You, and your fellow-travelling cheese-eaters, are just a bunch of gossipy old maids with a strong streak of pettiness, resentment, and malevolence. This is your idea of an intelligent post, and that's about all y'all present here, 24/7.
