You obviously have problems with reading comprehension. I routinely criticize Trump.


Btw, you still haven't answered the question. What are you afraid of? Confirmation that you are in fact a racists and think all white people are the same? Are you teaching your son this racism? :ohno: :ohno:

I teach my son the truth and nothing buy the truth. (No OJ)
1. Trump was elected by Uneducated White males. Most of them could not pass a job drug screen. But their mad because they can't get a steel or coal mine job paying 30/per Hr. I fault the Midwest for this ****. And yes, they all did not care what type of man Trump was.
Non Hispanic white males only make up about 31% of the population (62.8% of the population is non Hispanic white).

About 64% of adult non Hispanic white males above the age of 25 have less than 4 year degrees (36.2% do).
https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Cens ... 20-578.pdf

So even if you count everyone with less than a 4 year degree as "uneducated", only about 20% of the population are uneducated, non Hispanic white males. 20% of the population didn't elect Trump. :dunce:

And :dunce: :rofl:

Trump backstabs Sessions again, saying he only endorsed him because of the crowds he was drawing - not out of loyalty

Sessions endorsed Trump before anybody else in the Senate - he took a risk doing it. I'm no fan of Sessions in the role of AG, but this is a real cvnt move by Trump

It's also dumb. The Senate looks out for its own... even across the aisle

Trump starts impugning Sessions without cause and it will flip half of the Senate GOP against him

It's not a cunt move...It's SOP Trump
A cunt move would have the characteristic of being surprising (shocking and rude)

This is standard operating procedure for Donald Trump
He regularly points blame at anyone else as "The fault" of all his failings
and he will throw anybody under the bus at the first sign of trouble

When he starts hurling his kids under the bus (and that's coming) it'll be a cunt move
But everybody else is simply fair game - and always have been

Sessions was confirmed Feb 8, and recused himself March 2, about 3 weeks after being confirmed. So maybe Sessions should have known he was going to have to recuse himself, or there was a good chance he would, so maybe he should have removed himself from consideration before being confirmed. I can see why Trump would be furious at that. That being said, this is something that Trump should be handling behind closed doors & not in press interviews & on Twitter..

The way Trump treated Corey Lewandowski should've been a red flag to anyone thinking of sycophant-ing their way to a Trump admin job. Trump doesn't have any loyalty to principles or people, just Trump.

I think there are 10s of millions who genuinely like Trump and they voted for him during the Republican primaries. I think it's sad. But I think it's the truth.

My understanding is that Sessions had no choice in the matter. Existing rules said he had to recuse himself. I don't think there's any LEGITIMATE reason for Trump to be pissed off at him. But I think at this point Trump sees it as being to his advantage to stick the knife between the shoulder blades so he's doing it. I think it's his nature.

As I've written before: Hillary Clinton was not the more corrupt of the two major party candidates during the last Presidential election. Yes, she's corrupt. But not as corrupt as the other major candidate was and is.

At what point are you Trump people going to start asking yourselves why Trump is so bothered by the Russia investigation thing? Robert Mueller is a Republican. Do you think he's going to make something up? Do you think Trump has anything to worry about if there are no skeletons in the closet?

Why isn't Trump just kicking back and letting it go?

BTW one thing I DON'T think is the Sessions deserves any sympathy. Early on, he endorsed an absolute atrocity. A nut job. A person who appears to be mentally ill. So now the nut job has turned on him. I don't feel sorry for that little weasel Sessions at all.

If verbally stabbing sessions in the back is a cunt move
Then Donald Trump has done a cunt move about 3 times a week consistently for the last 6 months

Totaling roughly 75 to 80 something cunt moves since taking office...

:coffee:

At what point does it cease to be a cunt move and become SOP..?
Or perhaps with Donald, Cunt Move and Standard Operating Procedure are synonymous
and I don't even know if I spelled synonymous correctly

If existing rules said he had to recuse himself then Sessions should have dropped out before being confirmed. That seems to be a very legit reason for Trump to be pissed at him. On some matters Trump just needs to learn how to be pissed behind closed doors. In other words, don't air your dirty laundry in public..

Trump has talked people out the door, and he has fired them outright.

With Sessions, he's doing this passive aggressive, public humiliation thing to try to get Sessions to quit. Maybe that's a pet peeve of mine but it sticks out for me

So sorry to set off your sensitivity meter... I was commenting more on this particular tactic rather than Trump's entire body of work

Notice the family exemption to "this passive-aggressive, public humiliation thing." This week's New Yorker cover cartoon is classic: Trump is coming down the steps of Air Force One. He's pulling Don Jr. by the ear and kicking Kushner (below him on the steps) in the azz.

Agreed, there are plenty of people that like Trump, and are perfectly happy with how he has performed in his first several months in office. That's the real divide that some people just can't seem to grasp - for all the people who are foaming at the mouth in abject fury over every single thing Trump does (doesn't matter what he actually does, he's the embodiment of evil to these folks so they despise everything he does), there's another person who is chuckling at the histrionics of the Trump-haters and is either genuinely happy with what Trump says and does (scary enough to think about) or doesn't really give a crap what Trump does but is happy from a nihilistic standpoint and sees this as just one big middle finger to the political establishment on either side of the aisle (scary as well). And unless the left finds somebody and possibly a message to run against him in the next election, or unless he dies before then (he would be the oldest elected President by 4 years if he lasts that long) this could extend to a second term.

I think he was asking about on this forum.

I think it's BDK and Alpha and that's it. Maybe Cluck as well, but he is MIA. Maybe some other that are too embarrassed to admit it.
