Honestly it’s hilarious that CNN and other news networks have changed their story about what Trump said in his meeting a few times already.

#fakenews lol

Lol it’s said because no one can truly believe any bs these “news” networks feed us...If you aren’t gonna report the truth the first time then don’t report it. I have a hard time believing anything these days. Everyone has their own agenda.

I still can't get over the fact that CNN basically staged a protest. Talking about throwing your credibility out of the window.
 
So I'm sure people here knows the name Tomi Lahren, correct? She definitely has said some "interesting things" as the only reason why I knew about her was her comments about Beyonce's outfit in the Super Bowl. I remember how she harped about Jay-Z being a former drug dealer. I do NOT condone drug dealing, but I can understand why he did it. I mean he admitted it in at least one of his songs, "Yeah I sold drugs for a living, that's a given, why is it?/ Why don't y'all try to visit the neighborhoods, I lived in?"

So my whole thing is if you criticize his former upbringings, please tell me why you felt the need to upload a video of you lip-syncing one of the worst rappers in the game right now, who didn't grow up with sunshines and rainbows either.

And of course, how can I forget about this:

Not gonna lie, folks. This shit made me laugh. Be consistent, Tomi, be consistent.
 
Tonight Trump on Hawaii missile alert:

“We are going to now get involved with them. I love that they took responsibility. They took total responsibility, but we are going to get involved. Their attitude and what they want to do I think it’s terrific.“


um wut? what does that even mean... what's he trying to say?
 
That Hawaii false alarm is scary. Reveals a huge flaw in the system that can be easily misconstrued. What if it was taken serious by the DOD and they launched a "retaliatory" missile? What if NK caught wind of the false alarm and saw it as a false flag event and reason for us to launch a nuke and they decide to unload their whole stockpile in fear of retaliation?

This really makes me want trump to just shut his mouth regarding NK. I've always been against NK having nukes but now we just need to coexist. Live and let live, it's too late, the damage is done, let them have nukes and be diplomatic and hope they aren't dumb enough to start a nuclear war.
 
I think we are missing a lot in this false alarm.
I REALLY don't think it was this...

View attachment 445

I don't think it is as simple as "Whoopsie. Wrong button."

One would figure an alert as such would have some measure of safety and confirmation.

We are not getting all the details. ( As usual )
 
I really hope that we don't get attacked or anyone for that matter bc one man decided to open his mouth. Miss me with that "he's not politically correct"

The bitch needs to learn how to do so before his mouth gets our troops and civilians killed. My roommate is a 9 year marine that recently left and all his friends that are still in are scared he is going to dare an attack on us

Liberal Hawaii fucks up but yet Trump gets the blame. Really its par for the course. Clinton makes a silly deal with Noko, Obama makes silly nuclear deals with Iran and him and Hillary like big reset buttons. Under Trump ISIS gets demolished mainly cuz he lets his generals actually run the wars and doesn't micromanage but yet his mouth is gonna get us killed.

I guess I didn't express myself clearly. Neither party is doing the job. Both need to work on a bipartisan basis for the good of the country, but neither will compromise.

You come across to me as Republicans are bad and Democrats are good, perhaps I'm misreading you. Both parties are bad right now with too much interest in money rather than their constituents.

I mean, I am a bleeding heart Democrat, so I do feel that way to an extent. I don't think Republicans are inherently bad, but there's very little I agree with them on. Republicans have consistently been on the wrong side of history, whether it's civil rights, healthcare, CHIP, DREAM Act, or even the last government shutdown. There isn't much the party has done policy wise to improve the lives of Americans. In recent years they've only been obstructionists. I like Eisenhower. Hell, corruption aside, Nixon was a brilliant president, on domestic and foreign affairs. I'm not voting for him, but I don't hate Governor Hogan, either. He's been solid and I generally approve. I just don't think there are a lot of Republicans at the national level, currently, that are doing things that will benefit Americans. I don't think their intent is bad but their policy is.

As for the current issue, I think it's extremely shitty that Trump, Ryan, and McConnell all agree with protecting Dreamers, but won't offer those protections in exchange for the Dems giving the nine votes to pas the CR. This is a dirty trick to blame Democrats. All three agreed to protect Dreamers to pass the budget but are withholding that from the deal to make Democrats look bad. That's just shitty. Protect the Dreamers and the CR is passed last week. Guaran-fucking-teed.
