Politics Bernie or Trump

[dviss1]

I'd have felt the Bern.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

I'm getting old, refresh my memory. Would he have taken good care of me?

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

TRUMP. (high testosterone alpha male)

 

[Hobbesarable]

I'd have felt the Bern.

In a heartbeat.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

 

[ripcityboy]

Fuck. I'd have voted for this guy over Trump.

 

[Nikolokolus]

I voted Johnson (like I said I would), but I would have voted for Bernie just because I think he's decent and humane and unlikely to blow us up.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

 

[Hobbesarable]

Well, John Wayne was a hardcore Republican.

 

[theprunetang]

I would have voted PapaG over Trump all day. Gotta grab the election by the pussy.

 

[dviss1]

Well, John Wayne was a hardcore racist.

FIFY

 

[dviss1]

Would've NEVER said that about Obama.

 

[andalusian]

Well, since my taxes (which I pay) will now pay his salary, I guess he works for me now.

You could have just said "white dude from the early 1900's."

My ex-wife's grandmother was in college in the 40's. When discussing the "race problem" in one of her college classes she stood up and said:

The only way to rid ourselves of this so-called race problem is to spread love and let us intermarry....

20+ years before civil rights passed.

I refuse to believe all white men were racist from the 1900s. Wayne has been quoted.

Oh I'm sure there were reasonable people in that time, but it was far more prevalent back then. Or at least more openly racist.

Nate, when I speak in general terms I'm crucified on this board. C'mon...

Well, we're talking about historical facts here though. Racism was very prevalent back then. It sucks when we start looking at historical figures though. We start uncovering things we'd rather not know. I'm not sure if you ever watched the show "Who Do You Think You Are," but they have had a few black celebrities on there who have found out that that their ancestors owned slaves. I imagine that's probably something they wish they hadn't found out.

I think the phrase "ignorance is bliss" comes to mind.

 

[PDXFonz]

I did vote for Bernie Sanders

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I did vote for Bernie Sanders

Same

At the caucus in Bellingham it was about 99% Bernie, 1% Hillary. Like all Democratic pledged delegates, the local Congressman stonewalled the people and voted for Hillary.

Nationally, Independents voted for Bernie, but not Hillary. Bernie would have beaten Trump in a landslide. Voters wanted change, any change in any direction. Rebels without a clue.

My grandma got knocked up by and later married an Indian dude in the 30s, of course his family was pretending to be French back then, lol. That's progressive as fuck.

Your grandma's story is that she thought an Indian was a Frenchman? Oui oui!

News flash!

Trump won, Bernie didn't.

He did quit the Democratic Party.

 

[riverman]

He did quit the Democratic Party

I think we'll see a lot of that coming

 

[jlprk]

News flash! Trump won, Bernie didn't. He did quit the Democratic Party.

When did he join? He didn't. He's a Democrat like the Libertarian Trump is a Republican. The next 4 years will be constant fights between Trump and the Republicans. Maybe the party will grow up and evolve to merge in some new ideas. Probably not.

the newest trend is suspiciously French...if you can't beat them join them...the Libertarians might want to get a major celebrity who actually prepares for the role.....so far, they're in the High School play class.....need to step it up

Trump is no Libertarian.

You're funny when you're not trying to be.

I've never tried to understand this new fad Libertarianism. It will pass, like Existentialism in the 1970s. It's a useful label for Tweeners like Trump. Like you and your Existentialist Tweenerism.

The individual first. Collectivism only when there's a massive compelling interest.

As little government as we need and nothing more.
