The Trump Tapes

[Rastapopoulos]

According to Tom Arnold (not a person I hold any respect for, but still) there is a tape of Donald Trump sitting in front of an audience of people saying horribly racist things and calling his own son a "retard". (I'm assuming this is Barron, which would be horrible, not one of the adults, which wouldn't be so bad except for the use of the R-word.) Of course people have every right to be skeptical (although - honestly? who would doubt that Trump would be so crass?) until the purported tapes come to light. But wouldn't it be... interesting, if they did on, say, January 19th?

I will never ever understand the "My guy isn't bad because someone is worse." argument. We don't apply it anywhere else besides politics.

Why?

"Hey rapists aren't bad because there are people who murder."

"The Blazers aren't bad because the Sixers are worse."

Good assumption , but that is not the purpose of that post.

The point is of the post is...

We have nothing but speculation from Tom Arnold about Trump...... BUT we have real racist shit from a member of TDS, garnering no attention what so ever and this is just one of many examples of people in entertainment tweeting this garbage. So if Rasta really gives two shits about celebrities, racism, etc he should really broaden his horizons instead of focusing on this speculative (so far) witch hunt, which at this point resembles what the left loves to point out as #FAKENEWS!!!!!!

Those tweets were mentioned in the media a lot when he was tapped to replace Jon Stewart. Considering how much the Daily Show sucks now I'm sure a lot of people are glad Noah was hired.

When we compare the class and dignity of Obama vs. the crass blunt attitude of Trump, you realize a president has to be diplomatic, able to maneuver through the next crisis and handle the mess with finesse. I would expect Trump to dodge any prior crisis with the attitude of Attilla the Hun.

So in order to discuss the president potentially being racist, one must first object to any comedians who tell racial jokes?

Interesting rule.

Looks like Barfo can't be president.

Not at all.

But what the 'left' picks and chooses what to be 'offended' about is pretty telling. Typical hypocrites. But that's their rules from the beginning.

As bad as Trump is, his opponent was MUCH worse. The voters have spoken.

Don't you pick and choose what you are offended by? Isn't your disapproval of others picking and choosing pretty hypocritical of you?

Trump to announce the 9th Supreme Court Justice shortly before inauguration.

Ginsburg would be 91 by the end of Trump's presidency.

Kennedy would be 88, Breyer 86.

Good times are ahead.

I love how you made Sly's point for him. Ha!

 

[Denny Crane]

I love to be right

My guy was the best of the 4 candidates.

The guy who won was second best.

That says a LOT about the other two.

The r word? This country is fucking retarded. Are you afraid youll trigger the HCP if you say it?

This is the slam dunk for the GOP....the Supreme Court will be stacked for a long, long time

barfo

Nope. But you do.

 

[riverman]

Nope. But you do.

We all do.....pick a card, any card

 

[barfo]

Nope. But you do.

So are you offended by everything, or nothing? Or are you saying that someone else tells you what to be offended by and you just follow along?

Being offended takes practice....some are a quick study, others are on a longer curve

It's not about me Barfo; but for the record I am not offended by anything. Now ask Rasta and these people following more #fakenews which #fakenews they prefer to push their narrative? Then ask them, when it's okay and not okay to use racist language, because plenty of liberal people on the twitter-verse spew their garbage daily but I see no outrage by the left. Only when they need to push their narrative do they cry about these things from a "right" wing -source.


We have more proof about Podesta and his pedophilia, than we do about Trump using racist language on a so called "tape"; that Tom Arnold (who embellishes) has only seen.

Jill Stein was a fucking joke. Hillary is a criminal. It must have sucked to be progressive this election! Haha

congrats to the regressives of the world....they voted most of the bad folks off the island and ended up with the Grand Wazoo!!!!!

If it were up to me, he'd replace Scalia with a conservative and the liberal ones with liberals.

Sorry, Liberals. Bigotry Didn’t Elect Donald Trump.

In fact, had those people who agreed that Mr. Trump lacked “a sense of decency” voted for Mrs. Clinton, she would have been elected the next president.

Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Trump equally won over party loyalists. Yet about one in five voters did not have a favorable view of either candidate. These voters overwhelmingly backed Mr. Trump. Exit polls demonstrated that if voters who disapproved of both candidates had divided evenly between them, Mrs. Clinton would have won.

Several weeks before the election, a Quinnipiac University poll found that 51 percent of white working-class voters did not believe that Mr. Trump had a “sense of decency” and ranked Mrs. Clinton slightly higher on that quality.

But they were not voting on decency. Indeed, one-fifth of voters — more than 25 million Americans — said they “somewhat” disapproved of Mr. Trump’s treatment of women. Mr. Trump won three-quarters of these voters, despite their disapprobation.

Bluntly put, much of the white working class decided that Mr. Trump could be a jerk. Absent any other champion, they supported the jerk they thought was more on their side — that is, on the issues that most concerned them.

And anti-immigrant blowback, for instance, was not what unified them. Mr. Trump proposed expelling illegal immigrants yet more of his voters, by a 50 percent to 45 percent margin, said illegal immigrants working here should be offered a chance to apply for legal status rather than be deported.

As bad as Trump is, his opponent was MUCH worse. The voters have spoken.

Convincing argument, especially in the context of the Trump tapes. I must have missed all the tapes of Hillary Clinton boasting about grabbing people by the pussy and walking in on naked teens in beauty pageants. But I wasn't really paying attention.

Also, you might want to re-word the last bit to "the majority of electoral colleges" to avoid the awkward implication that nearly 3 million more voters "spoke" for Clinton.
