There's been some fake politicians over the years, but Mike Pence has to be the most fake of them all. Watching him speak is painful.

It's like he just doesn't even count. It's weird. It's like there's the "PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES," and then there's this clown. The whole thing is just so surreal.
I wonder if anyone actually respects him in politics? I don't think you could count any Dem or Independent, and all of the Repubs are ass kissing goons. Maybe Pence does, but he's mentally unstable also.

I don't think I hate him, he actually provides daily entertainment and laughter to my otherwise mundane workday.

How about "The official X% thread" where X is equal to his disapproval rating, so we can update it as it increases just so people people don't get confused.

I wouldn't go so far as to say I hate the guy. I just think he's a childish, moronic, incompetent, narcissistic assclown.

The official northcrunk hates Trump thread? It doesn't roll off the tongue but I suppose it can't hurt to ask.

Yeah but my employer still has UPS beat.

I know it's nothing to laugh about; the absurdity of all this stuff is just too hard to deal with.

maybe if he did anything worth praising, we could comment on it. but he hasn't done so yet.

maybe if under your definition we were not all antifa ####s, you'd get along better with people here. how was the 3% rally. did you enjoy it?

you don't own a t-ball batters helmet, do you?

late to the thread... but yeah, this occurred to me as well...

ultimately, this is not a good development for anyone, but it just makes me want to shake my head on how anyone could be against background checks at gun shows?!

its a GD loophole...

watching Newtown on netflix just made me livid... its mindboggling.

Canada has its own issues, and we are not immune to gun violence, but i wake up glad I'm a canadian every day these kinds of incidents happen in the US because we are at least trying to do the right thing

No, some people have standards that they like to see in the President of the US.

You know things like not selling the country out to a mutual enemy of the US and Canada.

You know like not screwing millions of people out of health care.

You know like having someone with as much competence in the job as anyone else should have in their profession regardless of what it is, nevermind it being the most important job in the world.

You know like not seeing the most important trading partner for Canada not set itself on fire with hatred and ignorance that will ultimately injure everyone both in a figurative and literal sense.



I personally don't care if the leader of any country is democrat or conservative as it is important for both sides to have a say in how the country runs. It does matter that the government in charge actually knows how to operate a country smoothly. The Republicans have control of everything. They can do anything they want. Exactly how many bills have they signed into law? How many of those have been legitimately beneficial to people as a whole?

The reason why I dislike Trump is that he is incompetent and has somehow managed to surround himself with people who are even more incompetent than he is. I am looking forward to the day where sanity returns to politics and we don't have a daily, sometimes hourly example of what has this person done now that has harmed America.

If someone ran a hockey team with as much competence that Trump has shown, people would be out there with pitchforks. Even when Burke did something touching in a similar vein last week with the arena argument, he was lambasted. That is why people are outraged by Trump. It has nothing to do with the fact that the Republicans won the election. It has everything to do with the fact that he is not doing a good job and is actively harming the country.

I'm sorry, I missed your well thought out case to support the policies and actions of this administration.

Oh, there isn't one? Gotcha.

Trump Tried to Convince NSA Chief to Absolve Him of Any Russian Collusion: Report

http://www.newsweek.com/trump-tried-...-report-626073

A recent National Security Agency memo documents a phone call in which U.S. President Donald Trump pressures agency chief Admiral Mike Rogers to state publicly that there is no evidence of collusion between his campaign and Russia, say reports.

He just cannot let Hillary go. She won the popular vote by 3 million, you won the election, you're the president, get on with it.

Donald J. Trump‏@realDonaldTrump
Why is that Hillary Clintons family and Dems dealings with Russia are not looked at, but my non-dealings are?

Crooked H destroyed phones w/ hammer, 'bleached' emails, & had husband meet w/AG days before she was cleared- & they talk about obstruction?
