Then you should be able to say what it is.

Plus he, y'know, told people he did it.
-
What do you mean "in either case"? How could there be a verdict against the Clinton Foundation? There is no case against the Clinton Foundation. Next time you go on some rant about bias, consider that you're so anti-Clinton that you thought there was. In the case of the Trump foundation, yes they had a verdict handed down - the charity was dissolved by court order.
-
And using the press as a weapon to disseminate those lies. Unlike your original example which doesn't appear to have anything to do with the subject. That the politician phoning into the show is different to the people running the show? Yeah, no shit Sherlock. What's your point?
-
Not always, but usually. In fact, when Gowlerk says Trump is the dictionary definition of outrageous I don't think he even realised how right he was. 1 Shockingly bad or excessive. ‘an outrageous act of bribery' 1.1 Wildly exaggerated or improbable. ‘the outrageous claims made by the previous government’ 2 Very bold and unusual and rather shocking. Tell me that's not Trump to a T
-
He has broken the law. Impeachment is the legal mechanism by which it catches up to him.
-
What do you mean 'recuperate any loss'? It's sounds like you've now gone from "we wanted a candidate who didn't need to make money from the office" to "I'm totally cool with my guy nakedly profiteering from the office because he spent money on his own campaign". But it's another lie. Another bit of dishonesty building up. Ok, maybe you'll say "telling the truth wasn't a reason I voted for him" but at some point doesn't the sheer accumulation bother you?
-
Exactly - you'd rather go with the ones who are wrong much more of the time, with the justification that the other guys are wrong sometimes.
-
But I'm not. Who else is out there ranting at a stadium audience about Thanksgiving? Orwells? Of course you don't. You don't see any problem with spouting anti-intellectual quotes while supporting an Ivy League grad who caims to be the most intelligent guy in the world. You don't see any problem with complaining about elitism while claiming a billionaire heir is the only guy who can solve ordinary people's problems for them. That's just fine.
-
Lol, it was rambling nonsense and you know it. When did you guys become such sheep?
-
I don't know, there might be a few that are more likely to fool intellectuals. Regardless, the vast majority of stupid ideas are still far more likely to be believed by the uneducated, so I know who I'd rather go with. Another thing for the anti-intellectual right to consider - Trump constantly makes a big deal about his intelligence and education. Time and time again he claims to have the biggest intellect in any room he walks into, on any subject. So he's either a liar or everything the right claims to despise.
-
So why make being rich a factor if both rich people and normal people can be disastrous presidents? How ironic that you want a president who will fight for 'the proles' but you don't trust a prole to do it - you'll only consider an east coast Ivy League trust fund billionare. When did you get so goddamn elitest? Lol, no come on. Seriously. This thread had nothing to do with Thanksgiving. Trump is the only person out there right now who appears to be outraged at Thanskgiving.
-
So what's the point of electing someone who doesn't need money and power when his sole concern in office is the accumuation of more money and power anyway? What's the difference? Why is it better to see a rich person trying to get richer than a normal person trying to get rich?
-
You must be incredibly disappointed that he's been constantly leveraging the office for personal profit like no-one else before, then. By the way, what is so great about elcting rich people? Bush was a gazillionaire before becoming President and he was a fucking disaster too. So why didn't you elect him instead? You don't seem to understand. Trump is the only person outraged at Thankgiving. You haven't understood that point either. It was a fairly basic one, too.
-
Oh yeah. Those Roxy videos were so macho.
-
Lol, you've had all this time to think about it and thats the best you can come up with to justify your original post? Ok then. By the way, how about phoning into Fox and lying for an hour. Does that count as using the press as a weapon?
-
Lol. We know you used to read Q posts for predictions - you kept reposting them here. Obviously you have managed to realise that none of them were true - funny that you've just decided that means you should still listen to what the fraudsters are saying about today.
-
I would expect that the majority of them are using a broad enough definition of socialism that the question doesn't even make sense. I think almost everyone would agree with you and Bono that capitalism needs control and limits beyond pure market forces, but that not many at all want to get rid of it completely.
-
Thanks. You also make a good point. A more socialist fiscal policy and higher ethical expectations of corporations will ensure that the wealth generated by capitalists business will benefit more of society as a whole. A foreign policy that values aid and looks to develop regional business opportunities first rather than simply pave the way for multinationals to come in and take profits out of the country is also good.
-
Come on man, outside of Europe and the US you've been to Turkey, Mexico and the Bahamas. I don't see how you get to be that snobbish about travel destinations. Especially in a thread about aid to the developing world.
-
A little more context: "“Capitalism is not immoral – it’s amoral. It requires our instruction,” Bono said, adding: “Capitalism has taken more people out of poverty than any other ‘ism’. But it is a wild beast that, if not tamed, can chew up a lot of people along the way.” The musician said that unfettered capitalism has caused an international drive towards populism and that public-sector spending is more vulnerable than ever due to issues such as homelessness in European cities. " Yep, sounds like Bono gets it. Controlled and regulated capitalism, strong public spending including on the most vulnerable members of society, a continued focus on foreign aid and development, opposition to the wave of populist right wing governments... all sounds good to me. Something tells me you didn't think that was the point, though.

Joe Biden can't control what his brother or his son does, including leveraging his family name to raise funds. As that same article states, there's no evidence that Joe Biden has done anything untoward to help James or Hunter Biden's business interests. Compare and contrast with the official support and government roles Trump has given his foreign-investment-hungry family and how dirty do you think they all are?
-
Plus his CO had been destroying evidence and suppressing allegations against him.
-
What do you say about it? What's your comment? It's almost impossible to find only sources as unbelievable as that one.
-
Sure thing. That bit right there. Turns out you can make it up. What you just posted has been addressed so many times. So. Many. Times. Even some of the witnesses in the Impeachment hearing (non-partisan career diplomats)addressed it, calling it dangerous conspiracy theories. I genuinely don't understand how, at this point in the process, someone who purports to be interested in politics does not know that already.
