PGT: President-Elect Donald J Trump

[GirlySports]

it's not even that they are fragile for themselves, they are worried about others. Its the social warrior justice trend.

remember the big brother video posted earlier (the last 6 people to know what happened). It was the black girl who in 20 seconds explained why trump would win. The other was just shocked. The first thing that comes to that one guys head was "where are gay people, where are minorities?"

Plus if anyone is to blame for today's youth it's us, since we're the ones that formed the society that created them.

nooooo it's their parents... we shape the generation for our kids who are probably about 5-10 now.

The Gen Xers are raising their kids differently (those kids are Gen Z). My daughter is going to destroy these people in about 10 years

No they didn't.

Trump may not be very high on the right side but I can't see a scenario where the left would ever defend him.

For the left, it's all about four years from now.

As important as this news is (paid shills appearing at Trump rallies to create chaos, Ferguson, etc), it doesn't seem like the left cares at all. People were applying for acting/extra jobs and instead were paid to create chases and to produce footage to further the leftist agenda. Somewhat disgusting, and not at all surprising.

As I have said a few times in this thread, people seem to be extremely susceptible to this manipulation and very resistant to recovering from the deception.

from the Dems point of view a pissed off Trump that the repugs are trying to get rid off who has stood on all kinds of classic democratic platforms. infrastructure spending, employment protectionism, is easier to do business with.

Lol, you post a paragraph that demonstrates what redforever claimed is wrong, but you then say he's right.

Read it all again.

Important? How so? When you attempt to have a discussion, and present facts, there is some whiny little bitch that gets offended, because they don't know what they are talking about, and they call you elitist (or put you on ignore) because you out them as a not knowing anything about the subject they are trying to talk about. One of the problems with the left is they let the right promote their ideological garbage as fact, and don't hammer the #### out of them with empirical evidence of the real facts, and force the right to prove which is right.

The left lost because no one stood up and called Trump on his incredible number of lies and held his feet to the fire. If the mass media did their damn job and pulled Trump's pants down on his lies, and showed he had a really small winkie, he would have been neutered before he became a possible threat. They let him get away with his garbage and that is what lost the election. Americans, (people in general, including Canadians) are inherently ignorant on how government works, or any complex system for that matter. If the education system, and the mass media, did their job and informed the electorate of these functions Donald Trump never would have happened.

I read what you posted before I even replied to him. He's the one making the claim, I can't find anything in the blog post to substantiate the claim. He (or you since you seem to be supporting the claim) can substantiate the claim by showing how the blog post supports the claim. Or not.

Speaking of Russia..

Vladimir Putin's spokesman says one way Donald Trump could help build confidence with Russia after he becomes president would be to persuade NATO to slow down its expansion or withdraw its forces from Russia's borders.

Dmitry Peskov said in an interview with The Associated Press that this "would lead to a kind of detente in Europe."

But unfortunately, he said, Russia now sees "NATO's muscles ... getting bigger and bigger and closer and closer to Russian borders."

At a NATO summit in July, the Western alliance said it is building up positions in Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania in response to what it sees as escalating tensions with Russia. The United States is sending 1,000 troops to Poland next year.

...

Peskov, who is considered one of Putin's closest aides, called NATO "an instrument of confrontation."

When its forces are being enlarged and deploying closer and closer to Russia's borders, he said, "we do not feel ourselves safe."

"Of course, we have to take measures to counter," Peskov said.

As "confidence-building measures" to reduce U.S.-Russia tensions in a Trump presidency "let's say slow down or withdrawal of NATO's military potential from our borders potentially would ease this situation," he said.

From Trump's transition website:

All media must apply for new press credentials.

I've been trying to figure out if that's typical or not without much luck.

Not to digress, but if there is a country with less self-awareness than the U.S., it has to be Russia. They need to look in the mirror and ask themselves why countries near their borders have moved toward NATO and the West.

At the same time the Russian's have earned their paranoia honestly, the Russians are never going to trust their border nations or NATO unless they're not a threat. Their history is full of massive invasions and Crusades from the West.

As much as people say that the World has changed, the Russian's have seen this movie before and believe that a strong defense militarily and diplomatically is not only needed but is a moral decision.

I didn't put you on ignore, I said I was going to ignore you, because of the way you behave on here. Unfortunately, it's pretty hard to ignore being called a "whiny little bitch", but given my resolution to do just that, I'm not going to respond to this except to point out that it's very revealing and demonstrates exactly why I gave up on the prospect of any sort of productive conversation with you.
