Trump; like him or not, somethings are just funny

[Shadow Wolf]

Both parties serve the same puppet master.

I can assure you, they don't. They have different donors and different objectives.

 

[Father Heathen]

What I find funny is Americans ripping into their own president like it doesn't make the whole country a worldwide joke

If you would actually ask non-americans, it's the fact that we've elected him in the first place that makes us a joke to the rest of the world.

Personally I thought a Republic was a “representative democracy.”

But you live and learn

Hard to see a nation as a joke when their military spending is more than the next 7 nations combined.

I mean to say, sure, we still laugh, but we offer up a few of our young as sacrifices too.

 

[Father Heathen]

Well democracy is everybody getting behind group decisions not whining like *****es because it's not going your way

Democracy doesn't mean tolerating misconduct and/or incompetence from officials just because they were elected. I'm not going to forgo my standards and integrity just because the lowest common denominator lacks them.

Maybe, but I wouldn't feel secure in a country with a single strike total loss target

So basically you're saying to the rest of the world 'we're brilliant we elected a incompetent idiot' well done

You may want to reread that, because that's not at all what he said.

Lowering armament levels, rather than increased offensive capability...is the only way this can actually be achieved. Raising military capability is more in line with the old M.A.D. doctrine.
But this did bring to mind that in Australia there is an old saying (which I'm pretty sure originated in England).
F*** you, Jack, I'm all right.

Yes it does

 

[Shadow Wolf]

Yes it does

He said a democracy isn't an excuse for tolerating poor behaviors and abuses from elected officials.

Which implys what to the rest of the world

That we give a damn and hold elected officials to standards of ethics and decency. I'm sure the rest of the world does know Trump did not win the popular vote, and thus did not win a mandate from Americans.

Don't need to say to the world what it can already see on it's own.

 

[Father Heathen]

Yes it does

Nah, either you're being disingenuous or your reading comprehension is ****-poor.

 

[Father Heathen]

Which implys what to the rest of the world

That not all Americans are so easily deceived and manipulated, and that class and integrity still matter to some of us.

I can assure you, they don't. They have different donors and different objectives.

Objective is to separate people of America preferably 50/50, so, nobody agree on anything ,so, they could do anything they want, or puppet master wants, they serve bankers, military industrial complex, and this is not the top yet.

 

[fantome profane]

Whether you want to accept it or not, America was established as a Republic to prevent a "democratic based" majority from trampling the minority.

Well it is good to know the rights of minority’s are not being trampled on in the U.S. today.

It wouldn't be the first time we Americans did and there are plenty of other democracies that have done the same thing
