Pelosi defends MS-13 from Trump

Trump has his Willie Horton, Pelosi handed it to him on a silver platter. Trumps ability to provoke his opponents into making idiots of themselves, is unlike anything I have ever seen. He brought the NFL and ESPN to their knees with stupid comments. He’ll have Pelosi hosting a telethon for ISIS next month.

The GOP already has well-done commercials showing Pelosi defending the demonic murderers in MS-13. Pelosi is now saying that low unemployment doesn’t really matter to regular people. We have democrats saying they’ll repeal that tax cuts if they can, which they cant unless they get a veto proof majority, and not even MSNBC is expecting that.

My question is, how does any democrat win any election, anywhere, ever? Defending MS-13 and promising tax hikes is a winning strategy in purple states? We’ll soon see.

If the gop runs commercials of people like me saying how much they enjoy their increased take home pay, and show Pelosi defending MS-13 and saying low unemployment isnt healthy, that sounds like a winning approach to me.

The base is rallied, the economy is firing on all cylinders, and every time trump says something as controversial as “MS-13 is bad”, he breaks liberal brains even more. They are bonkers with hate, absolutely bananas, it’s hysterical.

What rallies the base, is when trump calls ms13 animals, and the liberals all claim he said all Latinos are animals. It’s that kind of dishonest crazy talk that got him elected, and the liberals are too blind to see it, too thoughtless to stop.

Yes a machine silenced 13 rounds a second silenced ghost gun. In the same way an AR 15 is not an assault rifle

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

[QUOTE=zimmy;1143847]How does one loose a mind?

minds not firmly attached to reality....like this...

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/02/o...-as-it-is.html

"As president, Obama always found us wanting. We were constantly disappointing him. He would tell us the right thing to do and then sigh and purse his lips when his instructions were not followed.

Shortly after Donald Trump was elected, Rhodes writes in his new book, “The World as It Is,” Obama asked his aides, “What if we were wrong? But in his next breath, the president made it clear that what he meant was: What if we were wrong in being so right? What if we were too good for these people?

So really, he’s not acknowledging any flaws but simply wondering if we were even more benighted(in a state of pitiful or contemptible intellectual or moral ignorance) than he thought. He’s saying that, sadly, we were not enlightened enough for the momentous changes wrought by the smartest people in the world — or even evolved enough for the first African-American president.

We just weren’t ready for his amazing awesomeness."

So the quote from Obama is "maybe we pushed too far" not "What if we were wrong in being so right? What if we were too good for these people?" That is an interpretation of what he meant by that. A loose-minded interpretation. Are you judging his actual statement or the interpretation of what that meant? 20-30 years ago, gay marriage or marijuana legalization had no shot. I know tha tis complicated for you Scott, easier for you to post some BS snowflake fake news that fits your agenda. TERRIBLE!

You missed that the funny part is that you are quoting a NYT opinion, not that I am upset with her interpretation. You are also confused that I am upset. Not surprised that you are confused though. Your agenda is being a d-h

“It’s not America First, it’s America Alone,”
Must have been a liberal that said that?

We argue which side is right or wrong or better etc.........
Meanwhile every single senator & Congress person is a multi millionaire even though very few of them were close to being wealthy when 1st elected.
I’ll continue supporting the guy who had billions before elected and by most accounts doesn’t need the job or the & and is saving this country from becoming a 3rd world #^&#^&#^&#^& hole and socialist

I'll agree with you on the house and senate but I think the truth about Trump will eventually emerge. Time will tell.
As far as keeping the usa from becoming a 3rd world country
Here is a report that says we are on the way there, assume is half true.

Here is a little context for you, why Trump is claiming that only he can save you from those evil (fill in the blank) and why he is painting his opposition as anti whatever

Trump defended his hardline immigration rhetoric, central to his 2016 campaign, as an asset for the midterms.

"And you can say what you want, but I think border security and security in general is a great issue for the Republican Party," Trump said. "I think it's a great issue, not a bad issue."

The White House has repeatedly highlighted victims of gang violence as evidence that the U.S. needs more stringent immigration laws, including rolling back some forms of legal immigration. Critics, however, say the administration is simply exploiting such tragedies for political gain and to disparage Hispanic immigrants.
