You are so amazingly, hilariously lacking in self-awareness Cannoli Send a noteboard - 28/08/2018 08:13:46 AM


Apart from that, I find it continually amusing to see all these justifications for Trump's victory. "The media was mean to Republicans, so the Republicans voted in a madman" is not a defense, it is an un-selfaware criticism of a section of the electorate that has gotten so butthurt at contradictory voices in the media that it chose to raze the country to the ground rather than try and reflect on how its positions might be outdated, immoral and unworkable.

You realize that there is no proof of Trump's insanity, aside from his daring to disagree with your positions, right? What about the section of the electorate that has gotten so butthurt at voters deciding not to proceed with the coronation of another novelty milestone candidate, except this one had an extensive track record of reasons to vote against her, that they are LITERALLY (re)turning to violence? Only one side ever riots and causes widespread property damage. That side is responsible for the majority of the political violence in the country and supports most of the imported violence and has sought to derail the elections of the last two presidents from the opposition party by procedural tricks. But someone who doesn't follow the formulas of a career politician in his speech is the madman and electing him is "razing the country to the ground". What on earth could have given you such a skewed perspective, unless it is a major media hegemony by one side of the political spectrum...
