Why do some people try to bring Trump into almost every conversation? Investigations for the past 6 years have proven nothing. I'm actually looking forward to see the investigations into the "Big guy".
It's uncalled for. Then they're the same ones who say, well the other side does it. Time to grow up and become a man.

It's tough to have conversations about Trump these days because it will always go political - and of course that automatically makes it a very divided conversation with strong feelings on both sides. I think on one hand becoming president was one of the worst things could have done for himself - it put a microscope on him and the way he has conducted business over his lifetime.

He has gotten away with things his whole life - it's impressive to be honest the level to which he has. I think he and Elizabeth Holmes are the two biggest Cons that I've ever seen. I can barely get 10% off of something even when I have the actual coupon for it - these two just have that SOMETHING where people will listen no matter what they say and then give their support, and open their pocketbooks. I personally am in awe of people like this.

also when Biden is mentioned, Trump's name is sure to follow.
Some poster's agenda makes that so.
One name gets mentioned, the other follows in a reply.
Politics hijack other issues.
This can be a reason for Trump's name to be involved
( thought I'm not sure if fact or fiction, but its out here for people to see)

Thatā€˜s precisely what happened in this thread. Biden was mentioned in a disparaging way, and a poster responded in kind going after Trump. No outrage about Biden being mentioned, only about Trump.

You guys do realize Trumpies do the same thing. I can’t stand Biden and can’t think of anything good but some of you with the blind trumpets cry almost as much as he does.

Leaving the partisanship out of it, I was wondering…

When the Madoff Ponzi scheme collapsed, they actually recovered some of the money through ā€œclawbacksā€, which was taking the money back from the people who actually made a profit because they were near the top of the pyramid.

What are the odds they claw back any of the FTX money from the politicians of both parties who took large campaign contributions from SBF and Ellison?

She will be out in far less. Ca releases murderers for less time. Shocked if she stays in prison for more than a couple of years.

Copyright in 2022 for a purported 2018 nomination? I'd take that one with a grain of salt

Agreed. But given her stupidity with her business, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that she wasn’t careful to keep a strict separation of business and personal finances. In which case, they could go after her personal finances, and her husbandā€˜s if they are still married.

Between the likelihood of separate accounts and tracing of assets going into them I doubt it.

So surely you must think this latest congressional exercise is BDS, right?

RUDead: ā€œNo, that’s different.ā€

🤣

What does a congressional investigation have to do with people posting on a rutgers message board?

Answer: Nothing

In other words, ā€œno, that’s differentā€. Of course. šŸ˜€

As to your question, ask this guy who first introduced politics into the thread in this post:


The ā€œderangement syndromeā€ thing is quite possibly the best example of mass delusion in modern history. People bleat it out regularly despite it being an unarguably and obviously meaningless hypocritical avoidance response to every criticism, brought up in any context, of any politician in history.

And yet those who bleat it out have somehow deluded themselves into thinking they’re making some sort of valid point that only applies when it’s their guy being criticized. It never, in their sheep-minds, applies to their criticism of the other guy.

Just hilariously delusional. 🤣

Proven nothing? That assumes no reading comprehension.
Many allegations but what has he been convicted of? His lawyer alleged a lot but was convicted of things unrelated to Trump. I'm no Trump fan and I'm sure many negative allegations are true... just as I don't doubt many allegations about Biden are true. I remember Biden dropping his presidential primary campaign in the 80's because he was caught lying everytime he opened his mouth. I hope Trump loses his primary bid in 24 and Biden decides not to run. The country will be much better off.

Specifically plagarism
I believe that was the final straw. He lied about his high rank in law school, a 2nd degree there was no record of, an arrest at a civil rights protest where there's no record. I can't remember it all.

Transparently lame attempt to deflect. 🤣 I don’t need to get you. You ā€œgotā€ yourself.

Every person reading all this, who doesn’t have their head hopelessly stuck way up some politician’s butt, knows exactly what I’m saying and can see that you’re unable to defend your use of ā€œderangement syndromeā€. Because it’s completely indefensible no matter whose side one is shilling for.

Go ahead and stun us all with your next sad attempt to deflect. This is usually where politically obsessed folks, being inescapably caught in their hypocrisy, resort to personal insults. So you could always give that a try and really let me have it. Because thatā€˜ll surely alter reality and make the use of derangement syndrome comments not be unarguably mindless drivel. šŸ˜‰

We definitely need better leadership. Neither side is producing much in the way of good leadership right now.

GOP sucks but:

Only ONE side is saying you can't have gas, borders, police, 1st amendment and so on (there's a word for all that)

Only ONE side is saying its ok to mutilate children without parents permission, private finances need to be spied on, experimental drugs have to be taken to keep jobs (already proven by courts but too late for victims), financial and political corruption in service to CCP is ok and so on.

Barbarians outside the gate are working with barbarians inside the gate (most people dont even realize China decalred a "people's war: against US in 2019).

All noise - no convictions etc - just a trail of false accustations and vindictive persecutions
The record is clear on that

IMO, virtually all congressional investigations are, and have been for decades, pure partisan crap. Not saying there isn’t potential wrongdoing. Just saying that the investigations into any wrongdoing have exhibited no signs of impartial truth seeking. They’re just trying to paint the opposition in a negative light for political advantage.

Until and unless there are arrests, indictments, and convictions, in a court of law with a judge, jury and all the rules of evidence, then it’s all nothing more than a bunch of partisan BS. A cynical and deceptive exercise in taxpayer-funded political marketing.

And judging by polling numbers and electoral results over the years, most Americans agree.

Knew the voice was fake the first time I heard it which made me speculate what else she was lying about.

Her and that guy on Opra a few years ago I pegged both as phonies as soon as I saw and heard them.
