"You Can't Change Presidents In Time Of War"

[ProfessorGAC]

Someone here posted that today, but to be fair, they were making fun of it. However, i agree with that poster that if they create a "distracto-war" we'll hear the statement in the OP.

That said, i think we have one shut down response: Did the republicans run a candidate in 1944? How about 1964?

Discussion over.

1. Changing presidents after this one starts a war purely for political reasons will be

a necessity if we want the human race to survive.


I am getting sick and tired of being a lone voice talking about the very real possibility of world nuclear war.

2. I'm With Ya!

But, we heard it in 2004, and we'll hear it again, but the same party saying that is the one that ran against FDR and LBJ during wartime.

So, we need to "stomp that meme" reply.

3. Yes, it is like Hatch and McConnell saying SC justices are never appointed during elections

When they tell lies they now have a built in Soviet messaging machine that makes lies truths.

6. Not even a WORLD nuclear war. Just enough nukes have to go off to create dust clouds

that would change every aspect of our climate for years to come. Destroying the world's agriculture and wildlife not to mention causing conditions that would kill thousands and thousands in 3rd world countries.

10. Right, and we know trump and team are too stupid to know the long term

damage a few nukes would cause.

But thank GOD we dont have private server woman in charge, eh! I mean sure, none of this would be happening, the entire world would be ten million times better off, but a private server? Nope, no can do.

8. I'm extremely worried about North Korea at the moment

given recent statements coming from Trump, Tillerson about North Korea. I halfway expected to wake up this morning to find out that Trump had decided to re-start the Korean War.

[Eliot Rosewater]

11. I think trump and team see NK as their savior. They can bomb them, start a war

a war that not one of them or one of their family will fight in, and it saves his presidency while he violates the constitution and breaks the law everyday for several more years.

Donald Trump exists for one reason, to profit off of others at their expense.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

12. Even George W. Bush and Dick Cheney

knew better than to tangle with North Korea despite them actually seeking and possessing WMD. I hope and, yes, pray, every day that Trump and his team are not so stupid as to intentionally provoke North Korea into starting something. Aside from the brutality, we have become stuck with a guy for President who is not terribly dissimilar from Kim in terms of attitude and temperament.

4. Yes You CAN Change presidents in time of war especially when the president has no political or

military experience and obviously doesnt know what hes doing. YES YOU CAN!

[ProfessorGAC]

13. Well, The Republicans Tried At Least Twice

So when they say they, they're lying.

[samnsara]

5. thats how bush got a second term

[treestar]

7. It is stupid

We can change. The government is that stable. Maybe it said to justify terms 3 and 4 of FDR

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. Which reminds me of this old slogan:

"Why Change Dicks In The Middle Of A Screw? Vote For Nixon In '72!"

[Odoreida]

14. We've had continuous war since 1950. n/t

[Orsino]

15. We've already changed presidents twice since Cheney began his wars,

I think we're not allowed to change wars in the time of any president.

[ProfessorGAC]

16. Good One, Orsino!

Clever turn of phrase.
