Trump 2017: Year Zero

[richardp]

Does anyone think his flip flopping nazi statements are for attention and chaos? MSNBC barely talked about anything else in 20 or so minutes I tuned in this afternoon. I feel like trump is exploiting the situation because everyone stopped talking about his Russia problems. This distraction is working way better than North Korea.

I think mostly it is meant as yet another distraction to keep people's minds off the Russian investigation, but at the same time I think Trump genuinely does not want to upset the white supremacist movement because to him they are just loyal voters. He doesn't care about the girl murdered because she wasn't a Trump Voter. But he'll defend the ones who killed her because they are "loyal" to him.

...aaaaaand the only reason the rest of this country has not arrived at the same conclusion as @richardp is because they just cannot accept that the president of the United States could really be that pathetic, desperate, and truly fucking evil. All of this madness starts to make sense when you realize WHO Trump really is.

Please watch this short Vice News ducumentary of the events of this past weekend. Horrible. No big surprise that these guys hate Jews and hate Kushner because he "took Trump's daughter."

this is disturbing... I'm not sure I can handle listening to this brash skinhead dumbfuck rant for much longer...

If it's the same guy I think it is, I believe he posted a YouTube video crying and basically scared for his life. I've not watched either that or the documentary (I'll take people's word for it how bad it is) so take that with some salt.

The documentary is 20 minutes long and was produced by HBO, it's actually amazingly well done. Shows a right-there perspective that I think will be historic.

From the perspective inside a Charlottesville synagogue.

I mean bad in a different sense. I'm sure you're right, but I'm not emotionally ready to watch it.

[mostlymad]

It's far more than just daily. This is becoming hourly. How can we keep up with all the shit he's slinging at us? You can't single any one thing out as a distraction, because he has absolutely no focus on any one thing to deflect from anything else. It's all just a swirling mass of shit. Everything is equally important in context, and had any one thing he's done in the last month been the only thing he's done, it would be bad enough. The pile just keeps growing, every damned day. How long is this going to go on? I mean, I don't even think Pence is worse than Trump anymore...

"the Nazis really seem to like Donald Trump, which is weird, because Nazis are a lot like cats. If they like you, it's probably because you're feeding them"

[Swykk]

I left him a message. No threats, just told him to stop the bullshit racism and Nazi "values" aren't American. It's got no place in 2017.

I imagine I'll be spam called by racist douchebags until I have to change my number but I couldn't resist having a direct line to one of them.

when you stand behind the podium and try and explain what you meant there's one thing i know you're not my president

This dude.

So that's why Pence is flying back early.

[thevoid99]

So.... if Pence is gone immediately. That means Paul Ryan will become the new Vice President?

Long answer to your question: https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/...akes-his-place

Short answer to your question: it doesn't matter since Pence isn't going anywhere...

Ukranian hacker who coded malware suspected to have been used by the Russian government is working w/ FBI as a witness

[allegro]

Somebody I know online just linked this, I think this is AWESOME, what a truly gifted speaker and thinker, I am totally impressed.

WELL WORTH watching the whole thing:

[thevoid99]

Mitch Landrieu is one of these guys that seems to get it. He is a true people person and he states some valid reasons into why these Confederate statues should be removed.

Bannon's come out against the Charlottesville white supremacists.

This was... unexpected.

I am not surprised. Fascism exists in various forms. Leninism for example. If not for the color or their skin, they will find other groups (most likely some "communist" substitutes) they can attack in order to flatter their mob.

That clown is simply playing the game. Much better than his "Boss". But the standards have become so low he might actually earn credit with such "twists".

Not unexpected at all. People have been screaming for his firing since Saturday. He has to say something on record denouncing this or the pressure will mount and there's a chance that Don will get angry about Bannon being in the spotlight again and fire his ass. He's covering himself, that's all. And if any of you believe a word he said, I've got some great oceanfront property in Kansas to sell you.
