(2,768 posts)As I watch this I'm reminded of how a good number here at DU were cutting Obama off at the knees about 3 months in. I thought it was absurd how angry people were, but I get it now; I really do. I 120% understand where you are coming from. Go ahead along and plead with terrorists.
Beg them and plead to ,oh please ,oh please, oh please vote for us because we won't kill you.You are so, so so important to us. Don't worry that you are WILLING TO LET MOST OF THE PEOPLE WE REPRESENT BURN AT THE STAKE. That you are willing to let the REST OF THE DAMN WORLD BURN AS WELL. Your hurt is the hurt of a nation, don't worry about people suffering the same, or worse social and economic indignities here and abroad. Fuck the fickle, cowardly, mean fucking Trump voters and to hell with our alleged leadership for wanting to kow-tow to them.
This, THIS is why the Democratic party can't get the MAJORITY together to flog the republicans into the dustbin of history. They are too busy trying to court those bastards, or out right doing their dirty work for them. Try being left of center, try standing their solidly and collectively rather than sidling around the side. Just saying we aren't the other guy is no longer good enough. Courting the Trump voter makes me sick.
I don't care if aunt Sadie treated you like a saint, but her an something along the lines of 95% of people that voted for Trump are sticking by him as he makes a mess of this country and has quickly turned it into the world laughing stock. I'm still waiting for them to apologize before I give any credence to them or their plight. They need to bring their asses to the table rather than have our alleged leadership carry the table to them.... again.
