A Conservative Take on the Disaster that is Trump

You guys can pile on and pretend I'm senile or WHATEVER but the goddamned fucking Republican Party has a LOT of explainin' to do. What in the name of all that's holy were they thinking when they allowed him to even run in their party? Let him be an Independent if he felt such a need to be a superstar. Don't give me the line that no one supported him. Now we've got him in the WH and about the only GOOD thing that's come out of this is the appointment of Gorsuch, in the seat you stole from the Democrats last year.

The pathetic old bastard is a one trick pony who can't do anything right except campaign speeches. He has to keep going out and doing them (even at the Boy Scout Jamboree) just to feel good.
UGH. He's AWFUL and he's totally inappropriate to be leading the country. Plus not being a conservative on most issues, I think his policies suck.

You mad?
You betcha.

Good now you know we conservatives felt during eight years of the big eared disaster's reign of error
Actually, we conservatives feel the same way about Trump as we did about Obama.

You pseudocons, on the other hand, don't mind being hoaxed as long as the huckster tacks on the right letter after his name. You will even drink a New York limousine liberal's piss if he changes his D to an R!

Hey, where do I register as a Republican?



You???? A "conservative"??????? Yeaaaaaah, go push your bullshit somewhere else.
 
Too few. Time THEY woke up.
Were you suffering from dementia during the campaign?
TOO FEW. Did you hear me that time?


Seriously, you are totally clueless about how the system works and how fucked up it actually is. You know nothing as to how this fiat currency/debt slavery/servitude actually works....you don't know what actual money is or what the meaning of "Intrinsic value"....but yet you act like "da gubermint" can keep borrowing fed notes from a central bank that has no REAL money or reserves and that "da gubermint" owes you a giving. How did you get so old but remain so fucking stupid? You are proof positive of the adage of "With age comes wisdom" is a bunch of bullshit and nothing but a cliche'.
Where did I ever talk about the economy, Dale? I know better than that.


But YOU were saying that Trump was going to take away BILLIONS of dollars away from people for "healthcare" when he wants to revamp the entire system. You only look at the false narrative spewed by the lamestream media instead of the big picture. You have NO idea of how up to our necks in shit we are due to 113 years of having a central bank owned by foreign entities that pay off just enough politicians to keep this parasitic entity around. You act like they can just keep printing and creating federal reserve notes into infinity.
No, I'm not going to get into a debate on healthcare with you here, but there is nothing "false" about what he tweeted. 7 bill goes to the healthcare industry to subsidize the lower payments from millions of working poor who could otherwise not afford insurance. Millions.
If you think this is the best way to "revamp the entire system," okay, that's your opinion. I know our budget is in the toilet and only drastic action will help, but whoever does it will be unpopular as hell. Just so you know.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! The dems gave us the choice of two commies....Sanders and the Hildebeast. The repubs gave us a bunch of neocons, Rand Paul and Trump. People are waking up to the establishment that has put in place this surveillance police state while leaving the borders totally open and sucking the cock of the U.N while our sovereignty has been watered down to the point that anyone that isn't FOR illegal immigration is a racist......how fucked up is that? I don't think you are senile....just incredibly ignorant and naive.
Well, Dale, I think you're a paranoid fruitcake. So that's okay.

Trump Says U.S. Is Losing Afghan War
August 2, 2017
President Trump “has become increasingly frustrated with his advisers tasked with crafting a new U.S. strategy in Afghanistan and recently suggested firing the war’s top military commander during a tense meeting at the White House,” NBC News reports.

Said Trump: “We aren’t winning. We are losing.”

Trump also “inquired about the United States getting a piece of Afghan’s mineral wealth.” He then “compared the policy review process to the renovation of a famed New York restaurant in the 1980s.”:boobies:

Trump has been attacked by Conservatives for well over a year and you're waking up now?
Seriously? Who has been attacking him with any conviction. ? The whole part, until recently has been a bunch of cowering candy asses or , as some would say, snowflakes.
 
Finally! A conservative Republican who is willing to speak of and take resposibility for the ongoing three ring circus in the White House

My Party Is in Denial About Donald Trump

Who could blame the people who felt abandoned and ignored by the major parties for reaching in despair for a candidate who offered oversimplified answers to infinitely complex questions and managed to entertain them in the process? With hindsight, it is clear that we all but ensured the rise of Donald Trump

Selected excerpts:
I will let the liberals answer for their own sins in this regard. (There are many.) But we conservatives mocked Barack Obama’s failure to deliver on his pledge to change the tone in Washington even as we worked to assist with that failure. It was we conservatives who, upon Obama’s election, stated that our No. 1 priority was not advancing a conservative policy agenda but making Obama a one-term president—the corollary to this binary thinking being that his failure would be our success and the fortunes of the citizenry would presumably be sorted out in the meantime.

It was we conservatives who were largely silent when the most egregious and sustained attacks on Obama’s legitimacy were leveled by marginal figures who would later be embraced and legitimized by far too many of us.

It was we conservatives who rightly and robustly asserted our constitutional prerogatives as a co-equal branch of government when a Democrat was in the White House but who, despite solemn vows to do the same in the event of a Trump presidency, have maintained an unnerving silence as instability has ensued

To carry on in the spring of 2017 as if what was happening was anything approaching normalcy required a determined suspension of critical faculties.
And tremendous powers of denial.

Michael Gerson, a conservative columnist and former senior adviser to President George W. Bush, wrote, four months into the new presidency, The conservative mind, in some very visible cases, has become diseased,” and conservative institutions “with the blessings of a president … have abandoned the normal constraints of reason and compassion.”


Jeff Flake knows that john mccain, the favorite republican member of the democrat party is dying from brain cancer, so flake wants to take his spot as the favorite republican member of the democrat party........he is just another republican who basks in the warm glow of left wing media love, because he attacks republicans.....

Here is a more accurate article on jeff flake...

Jeff Flake is Filling in For John McCain as a Liberal Media Darling

John McCain has relished his "Maverick" label ever since the leftmedia warmed up to him after his failed 2000 presidential run. He began flirting with the Democratsafter that, and the love affair was on. The MSM adores nothing more than a Republican politician who will gleefully attack other Republicans.

McCain is at home in Arizona to begin cancer treatment after once again making the Democrats and their mouthpieces in the MSM swoon for him by delivering his biggest back-stab to his own party yet. The media types who hate Trump and Republicans may have been forlorn about missing their favorite useful idiot, but they've almost been immediately rescued by the junior senator from Arizona, Jeff Flake.

--------

What's galling to many of my conservative friends in my native Arizona is that Flake has been a little too cozy with McCain since he got to Washington. They were hoping for the un-Maverick, and they've basically gotten Maverick Lite. My closest friends there who voted for him are all disappointed.

What's even more galling to those of us who grew up in Barry Goldwater's Arizona is Flake's none-too-subtle implication that he is somehow picking up Goldwater's mantle of conservatism. He's got an ego that's really out of sync with his accomplishments.
Flake, like Mc Cain is a reasonably sane and moderate Republican and you and other extremist will deride him for that. They represent a Republican part that, for the most par, does not exist anymore. A party that used to actually work for the betterment of the American people and not put ideology before those people,
 
It just blows my fucking mind how people attack trump with things that they didnt give two shits about with democrat presidents.
Disingenuous BULLSHIT is worse than mr cheetoh saying he grabs women by the pussy.
Really? Like what, exactly??

Well, Dale, I think you're a paranoid fruitcake. So that's okay.

What you think and what comes out of my dog's ass bears such a striking resemblance that it would be easier to tell the friggin' Bobsey twins apart.....and that is not an obscure reference either for someone of your age. (snicker)

I tell ya what, throw away the TV and then spend ten to twelve hours a day for the next five plus years like I have learning how things REALLY work and putting the pieces together and then get back to me......until that time? You are lucky that I even address your posts of utter ignorance.

Trump has been attacked by Conservatives for well over a year and you're waking up now?

What we are finding out is who the real conservatives are and who the fake conservatives are. The real conservatives have stood by their principles. The fake conservatives make excuses for Trump by pointing to bad behavior by Democrats and using it to justify Trump's behavior.

A Trump supporter talking about egos. That is like a criminal complaining about the police. The fact is that Jeff Flake is 100% right.

There are so many things that Trump has done that if Obama had done, fake conservatives would be calling for Obama's head. Yet it is okay for Trump to do it. For example, Trump asking for voters' personal information. I remember conservatives screaming at Obama for suggesting that election systems should be declared critical infrastructure.

The people in the Senate and a lot in the House are not stupid. They are pretty intelligent people. They are ignoring what a mess the government has become with Trump's chaos and lack of focus. What has Trump created?
- a Commission to "investigate" voter fraud (to prove he won the popular vote, too)
- a Commission in the EPA to question climate science
- a Commission to look into discrimination against whites re: university admission policies.

In the past few weeks he has given cops the wink and nod to "not be so nice" to people in their custody and is threatening to take 7 billion from insurance companies that will end up sending people's insurance premiums sky high.
How anyone can continue to support this man. Only at extremists can, at this point.


You forgot appointing an Constitutional justice to the Supreme Court.

You forgot the stock market breaking 22,000.

You forgot illegal immigration at an all time low.

You forgot the reduction of wasteful and abusive federal regulations.

You forgot all the good things Trump has actually done......

Why shouldn't the stock market go up. All Republicans say when big business tells them to jump id how high.

Okayed coal producers putting coal waste in river water.

Said it is okay for financial advisors to cheat their clients

Allows ISP providers to sell their customers personal information

Says it is okay for airlines to hide hidden fees from their customers

Levin: Jeff Flake Is No Barry Goldwater — He’s a Sell-Out Liberal

Tuesday on his nationally syndicated radio show, conservative talker Mark Levin called Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) a “liberal.”

Levin said Flake’s new book, which took its title from “Conscience of a Conservative” by conservative icon Barry Goldwater, was filled with “meaningless, imbecilic arguments.”

Levin explained, “This guy Jeff Flake, the junior senator from Arizona ran as a Libertarian/Conservative for the senate. He ran a good organization called the Goldwater Institute after the great Barry Goldwater of whom I was always a fan myself. Jeff Flake is a liberal. He’s got an F rating at Conservative Review on the Liberty Score—F —he’s under 60%

He added, “So here were have Flake who takes the title of the book ‘Conscience of a Conservative,’ the cover of the book which is not identical but very close to the original cover of ‘Conscience of a Conservative,’ slaps his own meaningless, imbecilic arguments inside the cover of a book called ‘Conscience of a Conservative,’ to justify his liberal sell out agenda.”

Levin is a sell-out fake conservative who has sold his soul to Trump. He is another one who like Hannity and Limbaugh are fake conservatives.
