Donald Trump and US politics
" You just (rightly so) lambasted CNN on being biased media. Then linked to FOX. I can't be bothered to go to a meme generator. But, Jesus fucking Christ. But, to the point, has any news outlet said other than not only is it not unprecedented, but actually expected that over a period of weeks and months, sitting attorneys are asked to submit their resignations and are replaced? I'm pretty sure that was stated over and over on all outlets. What was unusual here, was that 46 were asked to submit immediately with 24 hours notice, without replacements. And, that Preet had been asked to stay on previously. And Preet was likely, as a well known impartial in NY, to be investigating Trump, very soon. Casually casual.

" Fox pointed out the hypocrisy, so he linked them. Which other major news network pointed out the hypocrisy? Did ABC, CBS, or NBC point it out? If they didn't he couldn't link them. Had he linked a less recognized site that also pointed it out, what would the response be? That they were disreputable alt-right sites? The fact that there was no television alternative to liberal bias is exactly how Fox was able to rise to the top. The MSM has one skill: Crying Wolf. Rather than learn from their mistakes and actually try and report facts, they cry bear, Russian etc. Now, if that linked Fox article had false facts or taken things out of context, tearing into it would make perfect sense. Crying "Fox" is no better than crying wolf. "The only legitimate use of a computer is to play games." - Eugene Jarvis

" What Hypocrisy? I mean, in that FOX video I see an anchor and 2 guests. One pointing out why this was cause for concern and one dismissing concern. That's exactly what I saw on every outlet, regardless of the party political bias of the outlet. Casually casual. Last edited by TheAnuhart#4741 on Mar 13, 2017, 2:15:32 PM

" Shit, I'm still hoping for that 4D chess move. It's probably not coming but it would be so noice if he actually said "ok this ryancare shit doesn't work we go full universal healthcare". That move would btfo everyone so hard and especially Paul Ryan and it would actually help people. Just literally copy Germany's health care model how hard can it be... GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence. Last edited by Xavderion#3432 on Mar 13, 2017, 2:53:59 PM

" House/Senate majority republicans scrambling to get enough votes to beat a unanimous democratic + a few republicans which threatened to pass a republican bill? LOL In reality, dems would still obstruct it almost unanimously. Casually casual.

" If Trump was against repealing Obamacare, he probably shouldn't have hired Price for HHS, because the entire reason to hire Price for HHS is so that he can help dismantle Obamacare. Even if Trump proposed that, do you think he'd pass it? Sure, the democrats might support it, but the republicans? No way in hell is that passing the house and senate.

It's important for the context of that quote, also.
It was well snipped (either by Xav as a troll, or he fell for a troll). It was just the same as he has said many times... I'll paraphrase the rest of the quote "rather than repeal Obamacare, let it go, let it implode but that isn't fair to the people". Casually casual.

^ That's why I said it probably won't happen.
Also CNN cut the feed again lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMN6cCWqUBo Trump literally calls them out ("perhaps the press will even report it?") and they do it anyway. GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
