OFFICIAL LRC President Donald Trump SECOND TERM Thread

:):):):)!!!!!!

Not only that, but the governors in Southern states throughout the 70s and 80s were largely Democrats, and the "red" South voted Democrat for president in 1976 and 1992.

BREAKING: CHAOTIC SCENE JUST BROKE OUT AT THE WH:
Trump explodes at reporter Peter Alexander and threatens to investigate NBC after he presses him about reports he’s keeping the $400M jet from Qatar. This is insane.

Yeah, how dare anyone question Dear Leader about the bribe that he is taking in plain sight.

South African President Ramaphosa: “I am sorry I don’t have a plane to give you.”

Trump: “I wish you did. I’d take it.”

What an absolute sh*tshow.

Peter Alexander is a terrible journalist

He isn't smart enough to be a journalist. He doesn't have what it takes.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding your post but the bolded text seems "off" to me - at least, off in the sense of not appropriately connecting with what I quoted and my post's meaning.

Agip posted: "If democracy survives trump, Dems will have to bend a little and throw the gays, etc under the bus."

To which I replied with the poem.

Agip's "the gays" are the poem's "Communists".

And the people "coming for you" have nothing to do with someone choosing to "(fly) the largest rainbow flag in the neighborhood" or not to. The people "coming for you" are the Trumpettes as they consolidate power under a god-king.

Sorry, neglected to bold the text.

Democrats much prefer to take these bribes in secret and then lie about them.

Boeing took a contract to produce 2 Air Force 1 planes in 2018 for $3.9 billion.

So far they've spent $2.4 billion to make these aircraft that aren't worth anywhere near $1 billion in value and they are already 3 years behind schedule.

The dolt is not an American and once again is twisting things and trying to speak as some sort of authority when he is a know-nothing buffoon.

How the ‘Party of Lincoln’ Won Over the Once Democratic South | HISTORY

Becky Little

Democratic defectors, known as the “Dixiecrats,” started a switch to the Republican party in a movement that was later fueled by a so-called "Southern strategy."

Sure, and I can be free to not do community service or go to my children’s soccer games especially if it presents opportunity costs onto me. Doesn’t mean that those social responsibilities forced me to act one way or that I am not immoral for not fulfilling them. Something I (as an American 🇺🇸) have observed is that our sense of duty unto our fellow people is nonexistent compared to other countries. Rugged individualism and runaway capitalism is not a social good and treating it as such has been the backbone behind this idiotic and fascistic MAGA movement.
I am also disgusted with the Democratic party, though to a lesser extent. Making DEI (which is fundamentally flawed and I don’t think is the best way to remediate existing inequality, but nobody talks about that. at least it is AN attempt at remediating inequality) a core tenet and refusing to back down on some quite frankly insane identity politics stances is just simply terrible strategy. As a result of accommodating and fighting over this whole “culture war” schtick they have shot themselves in the foot and thrown the baby (any kind of sensible policy making) out with the bathwater. Dems sold the country because we acted like our social positions were a done deal when for the majority of the country they absolutely are not.
We are living in the dumbest timeline and I hate it here

a right wing dixiecrat Democrat in 1955 alabama has absolutely nothing to do with left wingers who vote for Democrats now.

making any connection whatsoever between the two or saying that that alabama dixiecrat and kamala harris are members of the same party is like saying 'well North Korea calls itself a republic so ok that's what it is'

you absolute idiot.

grow up and look life in the face instead of hiding behind stupid word tricks.

right wing conservative governance has made trumplandia relatively poor compared to left wing governance elsewhere.

You could even make the argument that it is worse than saying DPRK is a republic because the title Democrat doesn’t even say anything about ideology relating to liberalism! Same goes for Republicans. Assess Democrats vs. Republicans as they are right now rather than drawing parallels and saying “you were racist then, you’re racist now” after party lines have changed dramatically. As agip says, that 1955 democrat senator in Alabama is certainly not the same “party” as the one trying to have nuanced discussions and approaches to solving racism in the US. I still don’t think that senator would be hateful or gullible or foolish enough to be a MAGA though.

Can you please explain to us how this Boeing contract that is behind schedule is a bribe and who was bribed? How does it relate to Boeing plane being gifted to Trump, other than the word Boeing?

And perhaps a reminder of which person was President when the contract with Boeing to build the two new planes was signed...

That would be Trump, of course.

Somehow that was Democrats taking a bribe?

for the record, in 1960 median african american income was around half of whites.

not sure exactly what it is now, but that gap is a lot less than 50%.

african americans are doing vastly better economically now than in 1960.
