you wanted to make the bill maher thing into something real. i have every right to poke fun and make dumb comments and assertions. or we can move along to something that actually matters.

I only used him as the prime example of Trump Derangement Syndrome (which so many of you have) in that people actually root for recession and the downfall of America so long as Orange Man doesn't get his second term.

should we point to rush limbaugh or alex jones as indicative of what republicans must really think?

no one wants to see america fall. bill maher made an outrageous dumb comment for the benefit of his audience.

trump is gonna get a second term and we'll be worse for it. but we reap what we sow...

S o to be clear, Trump using his office to personally help with his re-election campaign is now ok for Jason. Using his office corruptly to try and get ahead is now cool.

Good to know.

Don't know about cool, just one of those things. Nobody really cares, like if this were Obama the only reason Jason and Foo would be on the impeachment line is because they already hated the motherfucker, same thing with Trump.

If be wanting Obama impeached if he’d been this corrupt. Like, this is a massive issue and underscores how awful what he did is, it is legitimately likely now that he will be impeached since everything stacks up to abuse of power
