Official LRC President Donald J Trump Thread

How many decades have you listened to Rush Limbaugh do nothing but slander liberals, Gary? Newt Gingrich's "language matters" memo instructing Republicans to apply words like "anti-family", "pathetic", "sick", and "traitors" to the Democrats went out in 1996. There is an entire industry of Republican talking heads who've made careers out of insulting liberals. I've provided just a few examples. Note the dates.

"Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism", Ann Coulter, 2003

"Liberalism is a Mental Disorder", Michael Savage, 2005

"Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild", Michelle Malkin, 2005

"Deliver Us from Evil: Defeating Terrorism, Despotism, and Liberalism", Sean Hannity, 2004

"The Enemy at Home: The Cultural Left and Its Responsibility for 9/11", Dinesh D'Souza, 2007

The Republican party done nothing but promote hatred towards liberals my entire adult life.

If you don't want to Republicans to be associated with White Supremacists or Trump to be called a dictator, you should make an effort to at least pretend to be upset when elected Republicans like Steve King retweet Nazi Sympathizers or when Trump backs a neoconfederate candidate who has called a white supremacist his hero. You shouldn't be content when Trump publicly expresses a desire to be treated like Kim Jon Un (claiming "sarcasm" after the fact does not make this okay) or when he calls his political opposition enemies of America. You shouldn't be borderline gleeful at the prospect of separating brown kids from their parents and putting them in a tent prison in the Texas desert. (Trump is currently peddling the obvious lie that the zero tolerance child separation policy he and Sessions have implemented is "the Democrats' law." What law is he talking about specifically? His cult supporters don't care! Trump said it, so it's a fact!)

It's very obvious to me that Trump's supporters will accept violent suppression of his political opponents in order to keep him in power. Gary himself has tacitly suggested violence might be a necessary solution. (e.g. he calls liberals genocidal, he's claimed we need to split the country up because of how terrible liberals are, he believes there is an actual coup attempt being perpetrated by the imaginary Liberal Derp State and he says this is a battle Trump and his supporters MUST win.) If any evidence against Trump or effort to remove him is unquestionably illegitimate, then it follows that anything goes when it comes to tamping down on it.

Okay. Out of the Manafort case comes the Trump method of hiding emails from the authorities.

Prosecutors said Manafort used a method called "foldering" to covertly talk to people. It's not that complicated: He made an email account and shared the password. He wrote messages but saved them as drafts, never sending actual emails. Other guys open the draft, read it, delete.

Trump's Lolita and Lolito express added 2000 kids in the last 6 weeks. Trump's pal Epstein's express pales in compare. Trump's kiddie business is booming.

None of the things you say prove that Stefan Halper was not spying on Trump. Now, Halper has ties with the CIA. Halper was paid by Department of Defense’s Office of Net Assessment 282k in 2016, 129K in 2017 Halper was implicated in a previous CIA scandal.

Trump's words on Manafort, who was just sent to jail for witness tampering:

Wow, what a tough sentence for Paul Manafort, who has represented Ronald Reagan, Bob Dole and many other top political people and campaigns.

More Trump BS. The spy Trump claimed infiltrated his campaign was a economics and policy researcher, Stefan Halper, and a lifelong Republican, who served Nixon, Reagan, Bush Sr and Bush Jr. Far, far more service to republicans. A level Manfort can not touch. But that was not enough for Trump to go after Halper and destroying his life.

If it were a couple thousand young puppies that were separated from their mothers and put in cages, people would be outraged.

But young human beings? Well, most of them are BROWN, and hardly any speak English--so it's okay, amirite?

Hey libs, you need a reminder. Manafort was charged for crimes that were committed 12 years ago. It has nothing to do with Trump's campaign. Zip, zero, nada.

Not so fast. You are not as smarter than anyone else. You live in a bubble and think you are morally superior to Trumpers. Who said the following? Always remember the first rule of power tactics: Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have. The second rule is: Never go outside the experience of your people. When an action is outside the experience of the people, the result is confusion, fear, and retreat. The third rule is: Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat. The fourth rule is: Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules. You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity. The fourth rule carries within it the fifth rule: Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage. The sixth rule is: A good tactic is one that your people enjoy. If your people are not having a ball doing it, there is something very wrong with the tactic. The seventh rule: A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Man can sustain militant interest in any issue for only a limited time, after which it becomes a ritualistic commitment, like going to church on Sunday mornings. The eighth rule: Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose. The ninth rule: The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. The tenth rule: The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign. The eleventh rule is: If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside; this is based on the principle that every positive has its negative. The twelfth rule: The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. You cannot risk being trapped by the enemy in his sudden agreement with your demand and saying “You’re right — we don’t know what to do about this issue. Now you tell us.” The thirteenth rule: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

That's the whole ball game.

The Trump cult has been fully indoctrinated.

Going back to the IG Report. These are the facts: There is not a single pro-Trump text. There is not a single anti-Hillary text. There is not a single pro-Trump person mentioned in that report. Don’t even try me with that “no political bias" conclusion. Pure bullshit.

If there was "no bias" with the FBI, then why are they having bias training? But hey, it worked for Starbucks!

The spy gate thing was already debunked a while back and everyone has moved on, you were too busy skipping from one headline to the next to notice the facts. Even FOX already stopped peddling that nonsense. But you need to have gone to the moon yourself as proof that we’ve done it right, yeah ok please bury your head back in the sand.

Are you going to obsess over this nothingburger report just like you do with Hillary. The report is a complete dud, I know it’s disapponting for you but again the GOP is empty handed. Funny how nothing sticks - oh yeah let’s blame that deep state.

Excellent post - notice how the one trumper response so far was to call you out on your intellect. Says it all.

0/10

Trump FAILED to prove Halper was spying on him. Academic researchers as questions. You likely are entirely clueless what researchers do.

_its_baddude wrote:

Nope. Halper was implicated spying on Jimmy Carter's campaign. He was directed to do so by FORMER CIA Director and THEN-Vice-Presidential candidate George H.W. Bush on behalf of Ronald Reagan.

I guess he's ready to treat citizens like the NK leader does. Trump: I want 'my people' to 'sit up at attention' like in North Korea

I guess you missed the part where it had nothing to do with either one of them.

Until the FBI gets into the business of generating presidential propaganda, that is exactly how it should be.

You guys and your fantasies. What's Paul got to say about it?

You cannot make this stuff up.

you are saying that the democratic party on a constant basis calls trump voters old uneducated angry white supremacists. whaoh - more crack research from DG that no one else has ever found. You are truly the greatest investigative journo who ever lived. You have all this stuff that no one else has.

Stunner.

oh wait - you haven't shown me any of this constant roar of democratic party hate. maybe...maybe...maybe...you are a bser. Could that be?

Have you read this thread, perchance?

The spy claim has not been debunked. There is so much corruption on the top of the DOJ and FBI that is difficult to keep track of all the bad news. It is clear that the Obama administration was out of control. All the government agencies were functioning above the law with no oversight. Everything that has come of liberals' mouths appear to be lies.
