Don’t you and Flaggy hold your hand on your ass waiting for his “proof”.... :coffee: :coffee:
I won't be. Trip's usual MO after posts like that is to disappear from a thread for a few days. If asked when he returns he gives the "I have a life" excuse but rarely addresses the questions/comments. Our best hope for a response is for Kalm to tag in and try to save the day before being suplexed into unconsciousness. :D
As goes the world of cs.com poli board posting. :lol:

Attaboy, 88! :thumb: See how good it feels to pwn the libs? :geek:

I’m worried about klam. He seems to have withdrawn into a Covid worry-bunker, and his recent posts are listless. Have to start calling him Low-Energy Klam. :tiptoe:
I’m not worried about Covid nearly as much as I’m disheartened at our selfishness and politics in dealing with it not to mention the stupidity and confirmation bias the crisis and our leadership has emboldened. It’s more than likely the defining change moment of our lifetimes.

Plus, I spent a weekend in the hospital last month with a gastro bleed that required three blood transfusions, an endoscopy where they cauterized lesions in my gut and esophagus, and had my BP at one point down to 73/32. Still recovering from that so forgive me for being surly...or...wait for it...anemic at times. Literally!
Let this be a lesson, never trust a gas station taco.

On a serious note, hope you bounce back to full health. :thumb:

Read that yesterday. A bit shocked she has not left already as her husband is part of the Lincoln Project (or was anyway).

Hope you're doing better now - it is indeed disheartening to see what a nation of cunts we've become and I think I've pretty much given up on ever seeing America recover from these depths of cuntitude (thanks for the neologism, IT) regardless of who gets elected.... let the cuntry burn to the ground for all I care anymore. My only regret is that I wish some of the young cunts here could have seen the real America when we were riding high and the envy of the world. A brief but spectacular empire...RIP

I dunno if Trump came up with it himself

I’m more inclined to think it was a staffer

But when I see him pardoning Susan B Anthony I see it as a HUGE troll... the White House had to know the effect it would produce - it isn’t really debatable and you don’t have to be that smart to see it

You need to quit acting like Trump is smart. He is not. He's where he is because, unfortunately, a lot of the US population is stupid.

It wasn't troll bait. He was trying to pander to women. It's not going to work. They are going to vote by a substantial margin for Biden. Especially the ones that are highly informed. Trump's strength is among the ignorant.
He doesn't have to be, he just has to be smarter than that collection of cunts known as the DNC :coffee:

I don't really see how generals and other (active) soldiers are part of the military industrial complex though.

They're pawns, but not the complex itself.
