Iran certainly had this coming and Trump has certainly been restrained in his response to past escalations - drone being shot down, tanker attacks, refinery bombing, etc.
This is also not a Dem/Rep issue, I've argued this several times in this very thread. Neither party has a monopoly as a peace maker or war fighter. Dems are just as much part of the "Military Industrial Complex".
Let's also not forget Hilary and Obama killing Gaddafi and then bragging about it. Gaddafi not having done shit to the US for nearly 30 years. His ousting also has created a humanitarian nightmare and fueled the mass migrations to Europe.
You won't find anyone arguing Soleimani wasn't a military threat to the US or that he wasn't responsible for the deaths of Americans and our allies. The issue is going to be how this situation unfolded and was this the correct solution/escalation.
Not 6 months ago Democrats where calling Trump a pussy for pulling out of Syria and not retaliating against Iran... Now hell be a murdering WW3 starting monster... It's all political theater.

How many trillions of dollars will a potential war cost? (I know Alt-Right extremists don't value human life...though dollars don't either as you like tax policies that drive the country further into debt)
The US military is the most aggressive in the world and by your logic that would make it okay for other countries to attack people here.

Americans should not meddle in the politics of other states.
Iran was not going to attack the US because they are rational actors. The US assassinated someone without cause.
I value the lives of Americans, Iranians and others that could be lost in a needless conflict between the two
Just know the ONLY reason that this assassination happened is because it is good for Saudi Arabia and they convinced Trump to do it.
Also, this was an illegal act of war. Why are you defending Trump violating US Law?
I'm sure it was because they attacked the US embassy

President Trump denied on Friday afternoon that the U.S. drown airstrike that killed Iranian general Qassem Soleimani on Thursday was intended to “start a war.” Trump reiterated that Soleimani, whom he called the “number one terrorist anywhere in the world,” was planning “imminent and sinister attacks” against U.S. personnel. He added that Soleimani’s “sick passion” was killing innocent civilians. “We take comfort knowing that his reign of terror is over,” he said. “We took action to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war.” He also added that the U.S. does not “seek regime change” in Iran, but said the country’s aggression and use of proxies in the region “must end and it must end now.” “I am ready and prepared to take whatever action is necessary,” he said.
That sums it up.

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2013/09/30/the-shadow-commander/amp
Suleimani took command of the Quds Force fifteen years ago, and in that time he has sought to reshape the Middle East in Iran’s favor, working as a power broker and as a military force: assassinating rivals, arming allies, and, for most of a decade, directing a network of militant groups that killed hundreds of Americans in Iraq.
I get it, these are your people’s, you have to defend them.

Unless General Mattis is as well.
While coming Trump for killing him this is what Biden had to say
[Soleimani "deserved to be brought to justice for his crimes against American troops and thousands of innocents throughout the region. He supported terror and sowed chaos," but the decision to kill him "is a hugely escalatory move in an already dangerous region."
Crimes against thousands of innocent people by a terror supporter. Hmm feel like there is a word for that type of person.....

Watching the Left defend this man and Iran just proves how out of touch with reality they are and how far they are willing to go JUST to disagree with Trump. If this happened under Obama’s watch the applause would still be going. We’d be seeing all the photos of the Obama and his team watching it happen. It would be so historic.

https://amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/604375/
We've basically been at war with Iran. This guy had been orchestrating all the turmoil across the Middle East.
So I took a step back to do some indepth reading on Suleimani. He is quite the figure over in Iran and this all culminated in the killing of a defense contractor a few days ago. This does not include the sanctioning of killing of dozens if not hundreds of American troops over the last few years through proximies.
However, this is where I digress. Suleimani is a product of the 1979 Revolution. Also Iran’s resistance toward the United States’ involvement in the Middle East is a direct result of U.S. involvement in the Iran-Iraq War.
So in essence, we created all the hate by our involvement in the middle east by initiating and fighting various wars for the past 30-40 years.
And this is where I become conflicted. Did he deserve to be targeted by the US? Considering his priors with killing US soldiers, then the simple answer is yes. HOWEVER, this is where it becomes tricky. To waltz in to a foreign country and kill of of thier TOP military leaders is VASTLY different than killing a leader of a militia (Bin Laden). That is the big picture issue I am very much concerned about and what precedence this sets moving forward.

Trump made sure he was a free man and allowed to retire with honors. Literal war crimes and murder but free.
Suleimani acted in his role (an unfortunate role) and the US killed without going through any of the correct legal channels. Is it okay because he's not white or because he's a Muslim?

I assume you can read my age under my name. And you’re suuuuuper fucking smart so I assume you know I can’t.
I come from a family with many many military members including my father who was MIA in Vietnam and received a purpose heart. He was dead set on not letting me go into the military when I was 18. He made me promise to not do it behind his back. He’s o lot told me a few stories but he had very good reason to not want me to enlist.
I lived in Germany with my mother when she was in the Air Force and all I wanted to be was a fighter pilot. I got to play in simulators and run around the base. I loved it.
If the navy would let me be a fighter pilot I’d enlist right now.
But again. I’m old as fuck now and have 3 kids with special needs that very much need their father.

Was the "Stampede" maybe a protest/riot against existing Government policy that resulted in a brutal crack down?
Were the dead really killed in a "stampede", or maybe they are political dissidents and this a convenient way to write off their passing.
Remember, this is a country that openly executes homosexuals via construction cranes and rapes female prisoners before execution. After all, it would be a sin to execute a virgin...

They're people. They're people with a different culture than us.
Our government hates their government, and vice versa. I don't hate anyone in Iran. I don't want any Iranian non-combatant to die, and frankly I don't really want any combatants to die either.
We don't understand each other. Our government has been doing "our bidding" spreading fucking imperialism to areas it doesn't even begin to understand. To areas that aren't compatible with what we believe, to areas that don't understand capitalism, that don't understand secularism. To areas that are almost as blindly nationalistic as we are.

This is where you are horribly wrong. Our cultural, moral and religious values make us incompatible.
How can you say "life is precious people deserve understanding, compassion and freedom" and say that's compatible with "homosexuals should be hanged publicly and girls raped before they are stoned to death for being accused of adultery".
Iranians have had two generations of cultural brainwashing that isn't about to go away anytime soon. They do not like you personally on any level. This is why when peace loving hippies bike across the world to show love, they get murdered by random locals.
This why when given the chance for a free democracy, places like Libya, Egypt, Syria and Palestine elect draconian quasi terrorists into power who are more impressive than the secular dictators previously ousted.
Our government has been doing "our bidding" spreading fucking imperialism to areas it doesn't even begin to understand. To areas that aren't compatible with what we believe, to areas that don't understand capitalism, that don't understand secularism.
So... Your cool with raping young girls and murdering homosexuals... As long as it's NIMBY?
What Imperialism? Have we strip mined Afghanistan and stolen all the oil from Iraq? You do realize we export oil, correct? You do realize not a single American company received any contract to support oil extraction in Iraq.. Right?
To areas that are almost as blindly nationalistic as we are.
Yes, because we have tens of thousands of people in the streets burning Iranian flags screaming "Death to Islam".
We are quite the opposite with half the country trying to over turn the 2016 Election and the other half panicking they are getting drafted into WW3.
We're like Pinocchio during a lap dance, always sticking our nose where it doesn't belong.
Quite the opposite in this case. Iran's nose does not belong in fucking Iraq or Syria and they certainly should open a fucking history book.
Antagonizing the United States is a losers game. It takes very little provocation to pull us into a war. No mater the outcome, Iran loses. They lack the money, industrial, financial and human resources.
So when the US blows up some of the goat fucking child killers you gave weapons too... Just STFU about it. Orchestrating an Embassy siege is a bad move.
When's the last time Americans stormed a foreign Embassy and killed the people working there??? Hmmmm

The REST of the world doesn’t behave like that.
And so if I’m to accept that these people aren’t acting like savages (by definition. I personally think they’re dumb) should I them hanging gay people or jailing women?
Should I accept pedophiles because some people sick fucks out there find a way to justify it?
It’s unacceptable behavior.
The REST of the world behaves how it damn well pleases. Hell, Americans killed more than 16,000 people last year. Americans raped more than 127k people last year on record, and we all know that to be just a fraction of the actual rapes.
Okay, it's unacceptable; I never made any argument one way or another. Our government doesn't roll out every time someone's behavior is unacceptable. That's not our purpose. You may think it is, but it's not.
Hate their behavior? Preach. Try to change it. But my tax dollars shouldn't be used because you're riding around on a high horse. I don't want a single penny of my tax dollars used anywhere other than inside our borders.
Corbic, dude, I don't know what to say to you. My gray matter doesn't compute your gray matter's post. Your argumentation style is "no u."
By the way, the US raided the Iranian Consulate General in Erbil in 2007, which was a violation of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations. Unlike this attack, we removed and took prisoner multiple Iranians. Oh, whoops.
It's telling that you take rumor as truth. Multiple US lawmakers came out of Trump's last military briefing angry- including multiple Republicans. Now I'll wait for you to say something about them being Republican in Name Only and then bring up some more conservative Facebook memes that, for all you know, were originally authored by a Russian, Israeli or Chinese misinformation operative. That hook was awful shiny, though.

Oops, maybe post the actual story.
We raided their office in Iraq, not the US and it was in 2006(there is no Iranian bassy in the US).
The office was raided by government agents because Iran was running terror operations out of the Consular. Here we are 14 years later and Iran is still running terror operations across the Middle East.
That is a far cry from American civilians getting mad about something, (like Russia says something offensive) and storming the Russian Embassy in Washington DC and killing a few people in the process. That situation is a regular occurrence in Africa and the Middle East however.

Again, more half truths.
What are these "Republican lawmakers" "angry" about?
Are they angry they didn't get invited to the bomb Soli party?
Are they "angry" Trump started WW3?
Maybe they are "angry" Trump didn't start WW3....
You do release the US Military and Intelligence community are the ones that brought the intel and operation to Trump.
It's not like he sent a memo out "Yo, can we like kill an Iranian or some shit? I'm bored AF"

"I never made any argument one way or another."
So now I will. No, I'm not cool with it AT ALL, but it's not our government's problem.
We, as individual Americans or as an NGO, can try to step in to change it. We can shed light on it, boycott their products, highlight it on social media, bring it to the world's attention, but it is not our government's problem. At no point in the founding documents of this nation "we must interfere with all wrongdoing everywhere."
If it was, you think they would have labeled black people as more than 3/5ths a person. If it was, you think we wouldn't have killed so many indigenous people. You'd think we would have entered into fair contracts. You'd think we wouldn't have poisoned alcohol, given unwitting people syphilis, illicitly made women infertile, or made electro-shock therapy a thing.
What about the Chinese treatment of Uyghurs? Millions detained, thousands treated inhumanely.
Brazilian indigenous leaders gunned down by loggers and farming cartels.
Mexicans beheaded and melted in lye so Americans can deviate their septums.
Indians gang-raping women and then being extrajudicially murdered by police.
How about our allies in Iraq and Afghanistan? Millions of dollars funded to conservative Muslims in exchange for safe passage or suppression of anti-American sentiment, all while the local warlords get rich and keep women as uneducated second-class citizens due to their imam's interpretation of the Koran. Billions of dollars flooded through poor countries, increasing corruption and making actual, effective governance nearly impossible. See this: https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/LessonsLearned/SIGAR-16-58-LL.pdf
Tens of billions of US dollars spent on anti-drug efforts in Afghanistan and opium production is at literally an all-time high.
CIA-led coups, failed coups, and support of brutal dictatorships and rebel groups because they were aligned with our politics or business relationships in the region.
A series of fucking wars over bananas.
Installing a Shah in Iran who didn't have the slightest idea what he was doing, surrounded himself with yes-men who were equally inept and didn't pay attention to the rule of law in his country.
Installing a Shah in Iran who failed to notice the rising tide of conservative, theocratic anti-interventionism rippling through mosques in his country and the Middle East.
Arming and training conservative Muslims to fight invaders in Afghanistan without thinking of the potential ramifications of creating an entire class of religious warriors during a period of Westernization and capitalism.
Corbic, you're right. It wasn't an embassy, and it wasn't a full consulate. Here's a link for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._raid_on_the_Iranian_Liaison_Office_in_Erbil
We raided a consular office and deprived five people of freedom, two for 305 days and three for up to two years (source needed). We missed the intended targets.
This isn't physics. Every action doesn't have an equal reaction. A small mistake by America (or Russia, or Britain, or Belgium, or France, or Spain, or Japan) can lead to a cascade of decisions, fate, and outside influence that creates a monster.
The world is fucked. Shit's ridiculous. But adventurers can still drive down to Ushuaia from Tuktoyaktuk, from Norway to South Africa, from Glasgow to Mongolia. The world is big, and it can be dangerous, but the vast majority of its people are kind. To consider entire countries as our enemy is ignorant and, frankly, stupid as hell.

Look, I’m not saying we should be doing anything over there, but I’m not a military intelligence strategist either. I’ll be the first to admit I don’t follow what goes on over there as other people. Frankly, I don’t give a shit. However, given the fact that I’m not privy to the intricacies of the conflicts over there I will leave that up to the people that are. Trump isn’t acting alone on this, he’s going off of what he’s told and it sounds as though there were more embassy attacks planned.
Here’s another take I have...if we said fuck it and left the middle east alone they would still hate us and want to do harm to our allies. That ship has sailed. So what’s the solution? Do we just keep letting them kill our soldiers over there and never respond? No, that would only embolden them.
I don’t have a solution, nor do I pretend to. But I do think we need to respond accordingly.
What pisses me off about Hollywood and the Left here is they claim they care about human rights (lgbtq, minorities, women, etc) yet they are all coming forward and SUPPORTING a culture of people that LITERALLY sentence people to be hung for those things. It’s just total hypocrisy. Luckily there are people like Ricky Gervais that can come out and tell them right to their face they are hypocrites. Hollywood comedians can dish it out about trump, but when someone gives it back they are appalled.

I probably do have more time on my hands than you do, but I also research decisions made by those in power.
We cannot trust people in power, regardless if they're Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Independent, etc. They're in power- which means they have more control than we do. If someone has more control than me, I'm going to make sure that they're not pulling the wool over my eyes. I'm checking to make sure the taxi driver's face matches the license.
The ship has sailed to do something and to do nothing. If we do something, we keep getting farther and farther away from being able to do nothing, especially if that something is short-sighted. If we do nothing, it opens up the possibility of Russia or China working their way into the region even further. We put ourselves squarely in a catch-22.
We invaded Iraq without real evidence. We illegally crossed the borders of a sovereign nation, killed its military members (and some civilians in the crossfire), deposed its leader, and put tens of thousands of military-trained men out on the street. At no point was there an actual, factual, casus belli. We created a massive humanitarian and economic problem and had ZERO idea how to fix it. Hell, we didn't even invade Afghanistan properly- we should have immediately initiated heavy sanctions against Saudi Arabia but we let their literal sponsorship of 9/11 slide.
The people aren't the problem in Iran, and the government's law is ruled by two things: the Koran and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The intelligent people leave and the only people left are followers and those about to leave. Followers don't have much choice, given that poverty levels are high and per-capita income hasn't even hit 1988 levels again. More than 30% of the government spending is on religious foundations.
I'm anti-government. I find that most American outrage is self-righteous nationalism writ large rather than actual outrage, because Iran killing gays pales in comparison to us destabilizing an entire region over the course of four decades and plunging that region into economic, religious and social chaos all due to some stinking asshole's hard-on for the Russkies.

Welcome to being an adult. To do nothing is to do something, and it will have consequences.
We live in a global world with a global economic economy. Much of the "death to America" sentiment in the world is not driven by us, our actions or our economics but by the failings of others.
It's a wonderful rally call to bring support and power to certain individuals and excuse internal short comings and failures.

Shit happens. Saddam, his supporters and the international community have plenty of blame on themselves. The United States is not the only "person" with self agency. People need to step up and take responsibility.

You are missing the point and are using hyperbole instead of arguments.
Highlighting Iran's track record of humanitarian horrors is to bring light to the fact that it's not "oh they good people, America just mean".
You are crying about a long standing hate because the US supported and propped up a secular, western friendly, capitalist and liberal minded government...
Which was replaced by murderous religious zealots who also happen to be communists.
Where is the self agency on the leaders and people of the region? Why is Iran fucking with Syria, Israel, SA, Iraq and the US?
If they stopped fucking with everyone, the sanctions would end and they could prosper.
If Saddam had stopped waving his dick around after Desert Strom, stopped freaking out about Iran, he would not have gotten whacked post 9/11.
I don't see the US crying about hating the British because we where once subjects to the crown and they fucked with us in 1812 to bolster their war efforts against the French and suckered us into two world wars...
If you become economically successful, you stop caring about this petty shit.

Corbic, I'm going to respond to you based on your paragraph number.
1: Hilarious and never. If you've read any of my posts, you'd see that.
2. Much of the "death to America" sentiment is based on our imperialism and refusal to understand that capitalism and Western culture are incompatible with certain people as they exist currently. We spread both imperialism and Western culture at the barrel of a gun. We force change by pointing our considerable arsenal at people.
3. Alright. Do you take responsibility for the civilians killed in Iraq? Do you take responsibility for the destruction of Iraqi infrastructure? Do you take responsibility for our invasion having been planned poorly? How many suicide bombings occurred in Iraq before our occupation? How many after?
4. Your platitudes are cute. They don't hate us because they ain't us. They hate us because their theocratic government tells them to. They hate us because they don't have the education or financial standing to know not to. They hate us because every Iranian person 67 or younger has not known an Iran that wasn't fucked with by the United States. Don't you think that's colored their view a little?
5. How often did you see American flags before 9/11 versus after? How many times were you told "if you aren't with us, you're against us" prior to 9/11? What the everloving fuck do you think "Make America Great Again" is other than nationalism?
6. Using hyperbole how exactly? I'm not crying, I'm pointing out that America supported a weak leader WE put in place. We didn't have the country's best interests in mind, we had ours.
Why do you think we have the right to put our fingers in all the ME pies but Iran doesn't? Because we're a shining beacon on a hill?
Exitspeed, the majority of America is sick of Trump.

Even moderates are sick of Trump's inability to string together coherent and intelligent sentences- I've done some public speaking and some TV work and yeah, your nerves have to be tamed but holy hell, I've never said anything as idiotic as “I know windmills very much, I have studied it better than anybody. I know it is very expensive.

First, I don't think you understand what "Imperialism" means. You are using it just like the people that call Trump a "Nazi" and a "Racist" . Big mean scary words.
The US uses economy diplomacy - You behave and get on Team America, you get access to our markets, technology, trade, banking system and funding.
You side against us, you get cut off. You act an asshole by interfering with our team, money or are so bad you rouse our voters, you get a stick.
This policy works wonders for people who comply. Look at Japan and South Korea. They jumped on Team USA in the 50's and have seen stratospheric growth, prosperity and security all they while maintaining their unique cultures, religions and identity. They modified what was Non-compliant to American/Western/Capitalist values and have flourished.
By comparison, North Korea, Iraq and Iran are perfect examples of what NOT to do. RNK could be sharing in the Korean dream or even Chinese one had they not been idiots. Iraq and Iran have oil resources that could have lent them the prosperity of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE.
Again, those choose not too.
As for American Flags, I grew up in Europe. The 80's was a America FUCK yeah time. Just look at the opening of Days of Thunder.

So what is the mechanism trump is using to force China to buy a 10 fold increase in goods from the US?? 2012 was the peak in terms of how much China imported from the US. And this without the use of Taarifs…..which the American people are paying for and which are very much still in place.
In addition, this whole taarif and trade war revolved around IP rights. This latest deal doesn't do a single thing to address it the very reason this current admin began the trade war to begin with.
In terms of the up and down market, that is a self inflicted wound from this current admin.
But I digress, Just as you didn't read the AG report, you didn't read up on the new China trade deal...….or better yet, matched it up to any trade deal the US had with China in the past to make such a bold statement that...."USMCA and China Phase 1 is more than any president has accomplished with trade in the last 40 years "
But again, I digress. No one will change their stance.
P.S The house Intelligence committee just released a shit ton of text messages from Hyde to Parnas laying out the fact that the whole Ukraine debacle revolved around getting dirt on Biden AND potentially placing a hit out on Yvanovich (sp)
P.S.S Federal Watch dog report which was released earlier today stated trump did indeed break the law when he withheld aid to Ukraine. Also, OMB has direct emails stating the trump admin withheld aid and only when the whistle blower came forward, did OMB decided to release the aid
P.S.S.S trump just released aid to PR this past week some 2+ years after the disaster.
I can cite every single one of those sources if non one feels the need to do a quick google search.

Dude, nothing to do with being smarter, more selfish or any of that. It has ALL to do with vetting the information as received from politicians to make sure they are not all lying to me. How is THAT wrong?? And why are you not doing the same??
Shame on you exitspeed.
Again I digress.
Oh the irony; I am trying to direct the masses to the proper information to make sure they relay to folks who will inevitably be affected (farmers, manufacturing, folks with businesses who have their IPs stolen by China on a min by min basis........don't you own a business exitspeed? So yes, I am trying to HELP YOU!).
How in the world is that selfish??
Please do continue to yell at the clouds.
It is amazing how you keep attacking me as an individual. But yet, I refuse to return the favor. Why?? Because I am not some snow flake who gets all butt hurt when they truly realize they are willfully ignorant and embrace it with open arms and refuse to accept facts........or just read a few lines.

If I am better off? I am not in manufacturing and or own a business to have to experience IP rights infringement.
HOWEVER: lets relate it to car parts; yes I am affected indirectly especially through Amazon and the dead E85 sensor I bought. Amazon has shifted to carrying a SIGNIFICANT number of counterfeit parts passed off as authentic. Sensor bought and failed in less than 2 hour drive time.
When you click a few tabs through Amazon and realized AFTER the fact it is being shipped from China, then yes I am affected. I am not only out the downtime, it costed me a dyno session as I couldn't source a new sensor in time
So very much a cascading effect all from IP rights. And the several hundred I lost on this is peanuts compared to MAJOR companies like HKS, which had to shutter their US operations for this very issue,; IP rights.
Which as it turns out, this trade deal did not address
SO yes, I am affected. And so are a significant number of people on a daily basis.
And this is a single example. Selfish?? No. Informed?? YES!

But that's the thing; I am pointing out the simple fact that you are are making such ludicrous statements as "the best deal since" yada yada.....without reading a single word of the actual deal.
I get it, you don't have time. Fine. I have kids as well. I care enough about our nation to weave reading actual releases into my daily routine (if I take a shit, I go read reports). Instead of sitting here on Zilvia, I go read the release. If you truly cared about this country, you would spend the time you would posting in the Automotive thread and go read the actual releases. Or even better, spend the 3 mins you do commenting on the thread and break it up into sections;
2 mins for reading releases and 1 min for commenting here. There is simply no excuse to NOT read up on current events, ESPECIALLY when you find time to post here. You are essentially prioritizing Zilvia over actual digesting facts.
But with that, you cannot just simply make those broad unfounded statements you do on topics WITHOUT actually reading the release. That is my point; you continue to defend this admin with aplomb, all the while without reading a single word of the actual releases, reports or the trade deal. Are you not seeing the irony in all that?? Isn't that the full definition of willfully ignorant?? How is pointing out the fact you decided on your own to NOT read the very thing you confidently comment on as being passive aggressive?? How does that make any sense??
And I would like to point out, it is not criticizing the president when THAT IS THE DEAL THE PRESIDENT SIGNED OFF ON!! I am commenting on the deals he made.
Shoot, you took the time here to respond to my post and still didn't bother to read the trade deal summary...…..

Now now, lets use actual context. He is not saying that at all.
But at a Saturday press briefing, when a reporter asked him whether he regrets throwing around careless and provocative rhetoric, Trump insisted that what he sees as a "hoax" is the idea that his administration has failed to properly respond to the public-health crisis. "[W]e've done such a good job," he said, adding, "[T]he 'hoax' was used with respect to Democrats and what they were saying. It was a hoax, what they were saying."
RalliartRsX
03-02-2020, 08:53 AM
So your statement essentially correlates with what I posted. The very first line asks if the president regrets throwing around careless and provocative rhetoric (which occurred at the Rally in SC).
However, what he stated above is a complete circular argument and demonstrates he has no problem throwing around careless, false statements. You don't get to say things in such a careless fashion repeatedly, and be like "nah nah, I meant, err , I meant, yeah I meant that"and then continue to do the same at the very next rally. Common trend...
You do not get the credit for starting a fire and then running for the fire extinguisher and be like "see!! I am fucking hero!!!"
And no, I am NOT out of context. See below the quote from his rally
“The Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus. They're politicizing it,” he said. “They don't have any clue. They can't even count their votes in Iowa. No, they can't. They can't count their votes. One of my people came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia.’ That did not work out too well. They could not do it. They tried the impeachment hoax.”
Then Trump called the coronavirus “their new hoax.”
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/02/28/trump-south-carolina-rally-coronavirus-118269
trump knew exactly what he was saying at that rally and how he uses clearly false and careless narratives to rile up his base, knowing well and true they would not do their due diligence in calling the president on the statements.....

^^ That is not how it works. Especially if the dems get thier shit together and "consolidate" their votes. Also, it is not a last man standing competition. The primary is from the Dems.
As I mentioned; a broken convention is in trump's best interest. So if folks drop one by one sooner than later, that idea goes away and trump would be battling a consolidated front versus the dems having to figure out how to fund their various proxi battles within.

Ok so I’m genuinely interested in what the Lefties in here think about what’s happening here. Obviously the establishment doesn’t want Bernie to get the nomination and convinced mayor Pete and klobuchar to drop out and immediately support Biden. This is ‘16 all over again for the Bernie campaign. They’re being sabotaged by the established when they have a real movement going.
Should Bernie run as an independent? I mean he’s not a Democrat and Democrats are doing everything in their power to stop him.
All joking aside Biden’s gaffs and mumbling and slurring have to be giving the party some second thoughts that he can actually go the distance. And that’s before he gets on stage to debate Trump who will inevitably bring up Hunter. Which we know Biden will get super defensive and mean about. He does have the black vote via Obama. Speaking of Obama, he said he won’t endorse anyone until the nominee is decided. That’s pretty fucked up considering Biden brings him up like they are really best buds.
Warren is Hilary 2.0. She’s unlikable and really doesn’t offer anything any of the other candidates does other than she’s a women and obviously not a PoC.
Then you have Bloomberg basically buying his chance at the nomination, which I think doesn’t sit well with the base, which is basically anti-old rich white men (ironically which is all that’s left).
This is all very interesting to watch honestly. The party is definitely divided between the establishment and the new socialist movement. The question is, no matter who gets the nomination are you willing to vote for whom ever the nominee is? Even if they aren’t your pick? I mean that’s what happened with Trump. He wasn’t who a lot of Republicans wanted at the time but they came around because they saw Hilary as someone would have been worse for the country.

All of a sudden when elections comes around. Captain Bernie Save-a-hoe will roll in big ole crusty sack limp dick swinging in a locker room. He will then be glorified as the "Change" needed to bring us back to the "glory days of 2019". We then become fucking commies.

If Joe takes the nod in the rust belt states, Bernie needs to reconsider his campaign.
As it turns out, there is a strong black population in PA and Michigan for example. Bernie has been cancelling campaign showings and refocusing. Bernie is also down some 40 pts in FL.....
And if I keep hearing the Bernie bro yell about the Dem committee snuffing out Bernie, they need to stop being a bunch of whiney bitches and actually show up to vote. Voter turnout for the 18-25 demographic was lower than it was the past several years....which his prime Bernie Bro population.
Bernie outspent Joe in CA by something like 7.5M vs Joe's 40K (yes, that is 4 with 4 zeros vs Bernie's 7 and six zeros....) and only won by 1.5 or so %. That is a shitty return on investment.
And Joe won 10 states on super Tuesday (although Bernie took home a shit ton delegates in CA). Is Joe my #1 pick?? Nope. But momentum is momentum.

Also, these videos of Biden’s being a total asshole to people on the campaign trail are really bad. Telling people they’re full of shit, calling women dog faced poney soldiers and on and on.
Biden is quick witted enough anymore to beat him in debates.

Everything you just pointed out can be slightly altered and used against Trump.
Just add strokes to alzheimer's, replace Hunter Biden with Don Jr. and Ivanka/Jared and then also fucking pornstars, disrespecting war heroes, disrespecting handicap people and being a general piece of shit to people. Add to the list a lifelong career of being a lying con man that sold shitty steaks, a failed scam college, a failed bankrupt casino, etc, etc.
Classic hypocrite talking points. The old commit the acts you accuse your opponent of and then when or if you can stir the shit up claim false outrage. Biden won't apologize for being called out on the exact shit that Trump has based his whole life on. Forcing a candidate to apologize for the same behavior as his right wing opponent most likely won't work this time. I could be wrong though.

The first amendment to the US Constitution states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

And what does my opinion on life/abortion have ANYTHING to do with the fact that you bitch and complain about Dems infringing on rights, when the GOP is literally obliterating the Constitution and Fucking over a Woman's right to her body?? That has no bearing on the discussion at hand.....
And who the fuck cares what I think about when life "begins". It is not my place to tell a woman what to do with her reproductive system and subsequently her fetus. And that ties directly back to when that particular woman "believes" when life is truly established; be it at inception or at first breath. Not my issue. That is her prerogative, not mine. And just because that does not align with your "BELIEFS" doesn't mean her interpretation is no less "right" than yours.....

After the shit show that was trump last night, watching him crash the market, not being able to even read the teleprompter and overall just an absolute shit announcement, I would like to remind people of trump's rhetoric not but 1.5 weeks ago.....
Shutting down air travel does not correlate with a "Democratic hoax" or "democrats politicizing" anything.
Kudos to this admin for downplaying this and essentially being complacent in addressing this pandemic. Schools are moving to online classes/telling it's students to not come back after spring break. NBA has suspended their season, the shit show in regards to the test kits, insurance providers not being able to process anything as they are just as unprepared as this entire admin, etc etc. So much for the hoax argument.
And now, we gotta figure out daycare solutions once it all shuts down as we are being given the option to work from home.
Thanks Obam...wait.......
Fun times........
So your statement essentially correlates with what I posted. The very first line asks if the president regrets throwing around careless and provocative rhetoric (which occurred at the Rally in SC).
However, what he stated above is a complete circular argument and demonstrates he has no problem throwing around careless, false statements. You don't get to say things in such a careless fashion repeatedly, and be like "nah nah, I meant, err , I meant, yeah I meant that"and then continue to do the same at the very next rally. Common trend...
You do not get the credit for starting a fire and then running for the fire extinguisher and be like "see!! I am fucking hero!!!"
And no, I am NOT out of context. See below the quote from his rally
“The Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus. They're politicizing it,” he said. “They don't have any clue. They can't even count their votes in Iowa. No, they can't. They can't count their votes. One of my people came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia.’ That did not work out too well. They could not do it. They tried the impeachment hoax.”
Then Trump called the coronavirus “their new hoax.”
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/02/28/trump-south-carolina-rally-coronavirus-118269
trump knew exactly what he was saying at that rally and how he uses clearly false and careless narratives to rile up his base, knowing well and true they would not do their due diligence in calling the president on the statements.....

Please cite those numbers.
And yes, the Obama admin DID do something about it and took lessons learned from the prior outbreak 6 years prior. Also, they did this DURING a recession. trump's response further eroded the market.......sop yeah.
he CDC and other U.S. governmental agencies used the summer lull to take stock of the United States' response to H1N1 flu and attempt to patch any gaps in the public health safety net before flu season started in early autumn. Preparations included planning a second influenza vaccination program in addition to that for seasonal influenza, and improving coordination between federal, state and local governments and private health providers. On 24 October 2009, U.S. President Obama declared swine flu a national emergency, giving Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius authority to grant waivers to requesting hospitals from usual federal requirements.
So yes, the Obama admin DID do something.
I literally called my insurance company and local government for information and they gave me the runaround and then told me to go to the ER.......because they literally received no guidance on how to address this (or due to the fact that it wasn't a national emergency, they had to enact their own methods on how to address.....)
So yep send everyone to the ER to either
a) Get infected or
b) infect everyone else.

Dude. That is flat out NOT TRUE!! There were not 20,000 deaths in the US due to the wine flue (that number is FALSE). Second, The Obama admin moved to declaring this a PUBLIC HEALTH Emergency BEFORE A SINGLE PERSON DIED!!
Because you are clearly allergic to facts, here is the FACTUAL timeline on how the Obama Admin addressed the swine flu. I also asked you to research the numbers and you flat out refuse to
Obama acted before pandemic declared
Obama’s acting director of health and human services declared H1N1 a public health emergency on April 26, 2009.
That was when only 20 cases of H1N1 — and no deaths — around the country had been confirmed.
The Obama administration declared swine flu, or H1N1, a public health emergency six weeks before H1N1 was declared a pandemic.
No H1N1 deaths had yet been recorded in the United States.
Six months after that initial declaration, when more than 1,000 deaths had occurred, Obama himself declared H1N1 a national emergency.
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/mar/04/facebook-posts/president-obama-declared-h1n1-public-health-emerge/
This declaration freed up funds and resources to begin to tackle the outbreak.

Your first two lines are categorically false. Please go look it up. Just like S14 above keeps throwing around clearly false information, you are doing the same. trump did not ban because of corona. He banned because racism. He also didn't ban ANYONE from China. He banned from Muslim nations, WHICH HAD NO STRAINS OF CORONA VIRUS!!
And again, please keep calling me "you fucks". I refuse to stoop to that level. But you can carry on. Doesn't bother me that you are unable to hold a convo without insults.
P.S If the US was better than China, China wouldn't be the one that's touted as Hero's right now as they managed to contain their OWN outbreak.
In essence fuck China for all this. However, we can do better.
Look, I would love to back this president, but he simply needs to stop putting his foot in his mouth. When you cannot read a teleprompter we need to reevaluate how low you want to set the bar.
And who the fuck is going to pay for the $1.5T he literally eviscerated by dumping it into the market. Didn't trump claim that one swipe of a pen he can fix everything?? Well, here we are. And are $1.5T more in depth because of incompetence . Why was that $1.5T not used to prop up the test kits, R&D for a cure, etc?? All knee jerk, ZERO calculated moves. This shows a gross level of incompetency. Perfect.....
And no, Biden was DEFINITELY not my pick for president.

This is called a rider bill. However, please do not mischaracterize this as ANYTHING new.
In U.S. government, “riders” are bills in the form of additional provisions added to the original versions of bills or resolutions considered by Congress. Often having little relationship to the subject matter of the parent bill, riders are typically used as an often-criticized tactic intended to gain the enactment of a controversial bill that would probably not pass if introduced on its own.
Other riders, known as “wrecking” or “poison pill” bills are used not to actually be passed, but merely to prevent the passage of the parent bill or to ensure its veto by the president.
An Example of a Controversial Rider
The REAL ID Act, passed in 2005, required the creation of something that most Americans have always opposed – a national personal identification registry. The law requires the states to issue new, high-tech driver’s licenses and prohibits the federal agencies from accepting for certain purposes —like boarding airliners—driver’s licenses and identification cards from states that do not meet the law’s minimum standards.
When it was introduced by itself, the REAL ID Act garnered so little support in the Senate that is was never even brought to a vote. But its backers got it passed anyway. The bill’s sponsor, Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R) of Wisconsin, attached it as a rider to a bill no post-9/11 politician would have dared vote against, titled the “Emergency, Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, and Tsunami Relief.” That bill allocated money to pay the troops and pay for the war on terror. Few voted against the bill. The military spending bill, with the REAL ID Act rider attached, passed in the House of Representatives by a vote of 368-58, by a vote of 100-0 in the Senate. President George W. Bush signed it into law on May 11, 2005.
Rider bills are most often used in the Senate because the Senate’s rules are far more tolerant to them than the rules of the House. In the House, all amendments to bills must generally be related to or deal with the subject of the parent bill being considered.
Riders are most often attached to major spending, or “appropriations” bills, because the defeat, presidential veto or delay of these bills could delay the funding of vital government programs leading to a temporary government shutdown.
In 1879, President Rutherford B. Hayes complained that lawmakers using riders could hold the executive hostage by “insisting upon the approval of a bill under the penalty of stopping all of the operations of government.”
Please be consistent...
And this is pulled directly from your link
Although the bill addresses providing testing and masks to respond to the coronavirus, it also expands unemployment insurance and food stamps, requires the Social Security Administration to provide paid sick leave, and mandates that employers give paid permanent sick leave to their employees
Please tell me, what's so wrong with any of those items?? Considering if someone works at a low level job for instance (think Factories, labor, etc), if I am forced to make the choice of "don't show up to work because I have to stay home with my kids because daycare is closed and immediately get fired" vs "I need to work because my kids need to eat so I need to leave my 2,5, and 10 year old at home to fend for themselves", what the fuck?!?!
It is situations like this that those provisions DIRECTLY help.

The local rec centers have closed for atleast 2 weeks. Schools are closed for even longer. My work has no direction from the admin on what to do (and they depend on this admin to provide direction). My insurance stated the same. Lame response to the virus, the constant blame on the last admin (just read his last tweet about Obama changing the rules on testing which is flat out a lie), etc etc. Get the fuck off twitter and go be presidential is all I ask. Shoot, all my trackdays, races, etc are cancelled. However, that's first world problem things and not necessary for me to live.
If this admin would stop looking behind them and just do their fucking job, I wouldn't be here posting. :-/
I literally know people who were DIRECTLY ripped off by trump and Kushners in NJ. They literally worked as a contractor for trump and his org and trump literally just stopped paying his invoices and hid behind bankruptcies after bankruptcies. The exact way he ran his businesses and upteen bankruptcies is how he is running the government and it's like groundhog day.

Your first sentence is FALSE
When will be start holding employeers accountable for forcing people to work and to travel to infected areas, only to have same employeer force you to "quarantine"?? Yeah, I know of lets just say a "few" who are currently dealing with this very issue now. However when people like yourself politicize it and in essence downplay it, this is the outcome
Just like that asshole in KY (a RED state) who, after testing positive, left the hospital against Doc orders, and the Governor had to station officers around his house 24/7 to FORCE him to self quarantine. That's the sort of shit that get's us to this point. So I agree, folks like that need to held accountable

Then you are like "nah man, I acknowledge your post"?? I must be dense?? You also stated ""Looks like COVID-19 is primarily, if not completely, isolated to blue counties of the country. Will the DeMs accuse nature of 'election interference'?. That sounds like you are saying it is isolated to blue counties. This is not true on several levels, One main one being there are literally .01% test kits available to all the states. It just so happen, the Dem states are more well equiped to handle this as opposed to the more rural or flyover states so they are still trying to figure out this whole testing situation.
It is mostly blue problem, from the simple fact that blue states are leading the way in getting people tested, closing schools, etc etc
Regardless of which states you "think" it is isolated to, what does any of this has to do with election interference?? Has someone come out recently to explicitly state this or is their part of your conspiracy theory??

Again, GTFO here with your politicized bullshit. Or better yet, STOP SAYING THE DEMS ARE SPREADING THE FUCKING DISEASE! That is just not true. Stop being an ass about it. YOU are the one stating it's only a Dem initiated and isolated issue. YOU are the one that is saying it is (falsely) isolated to Dem counties.
Again, stop spreading this shit. It's NOT TRUE! WTF does any of this has to do with election interference?? Care to answer. Or care to show one Dem who stated this?? NON ONE! This is a USA thing. Not a blue vs red thing.I rarely agree with you on politics, but you are correct on this. The only reason you'd see a variance of infection based on political mapping would be Urban vs Rural regions.
Rural will have more social distancing and lower population density. This means fewer cases and slower spread. Urban areas like Seattle and San Fran, with large homeless populations, and dense communities will see this spread like a California wildfire.
As for Trump's responses, damned if you do, damned if you don't.
The virus will either have substantial human impact (illness, death, etc) and he didn't do enough. Or the human impact will be minimal and he over reacted. You will never factually prove what actions where successful and the cost trade off for them.
The problem I see, back in January, the world, both political sides and media all sat back while this mess unfolded in China.
Someone should have started ordering test kit and trying to get ahead of this back then.
Indiana last week had an entire 80 test kits. I was flu sick having spent two weeks traveling by air. Just normal flu, cough, congestion, running nose, sore, but no fever and nothing I'd see the doctor over. Pretty much 98% recovered today.
Based on what I've seen, I could easily have had COVID-19 seeing over half the infected have extremely mild symptoms. But without a fast check, drive up test system in place.. Who fucking knows. I could have been a carrier monkey that infected +40 other people.

I'll admit I should not have used the words primarily and isolated in the same sentence. They contradict. Isolated is the wrong word. Primarily is the right word.
The location of COVID cases has little to do with test kits. Medical personnel WILL get testing done if a person has ACTUAL COVID SYMPTOMS. Too many kits being wasted on people with flu symptoms instead. The amount of negative test results is an indication of that.
The COVID is spreading around blue counties because those are the people who can't follow simple, common sense rules, ie don't travel to infected areas, use the penis bathroom if you have a penis, etc.

No harm no foul in terms of grammar :)
- So how you propose Medical personnel get testing done if......hold your breathe.......they do not have the actual test kits to.....you know......test the individuals and confirm the population in both red or blue counties are carriers and/or infected?? Am I suppose to put my finger in the wind and say "yep, you look sick! no bagel for YOU!! NEXT!!?!? I am really trying to reconcile how not having the test kit availability automatically means that red counties specifically show NO signs of carriers, transmission and infection. Just think about that for a sec.....
How do I know my head gasket is blown if I do not do a compression or leakdown TEST?? How do I know my injectors aren't firing if I do not actually provide a voltage to TEST they opening and an Ohm meter to TEST resistance?? Same concept applies here.......
- And again, how are you attributing this to being relegated to only blue counties because "those are the people" who cannot follow the rules?? You mean the fact that the 2 week incubation period and the fact that there are no test kits available/the expertise/ the infrastructure to properly record which counties have a higher density of affected??
Not trying to be a dick, but your statements not only contradict themselves, but on the base and face value level, literally does not commute or simply make sense. You literally have no basis for your "predominantly" blue statement apart from.......an opinion with zero actual numbers behind it.......even when presented with items which refute this fact.

S14 (and anyone reading) This is a serious question
Isn't what this current admin is doing (provided medical support for folks who are unable, Free test kits, Free tests, waiving the income tax, pumping $1.5T into the markets/banks, attempting to hand out $1000.....the list goes on)
Isn't this 100% Socialism?? I am fairly certain this is the VERY definition of socialism no matter what sort of epidemic we are in. It was socialism when the Obama admin bailed out the banks in 2008 and offer tax breaks to the population. So I assume it is also socialism now when the trump admin is also trying to do the exact same thing. Or when trump approves a tax break in a strong economy (not needed).
The difference is; the Obama admin was handed a Recession. Also, why is with how the trump admin is handling the situation, the market continues to get eviscerated?? I am fairly sure at this point, it took a little over 1 week for all the gains from 2016 to today to evaporate. Also, with folks being laid off by the 10s of thousands, it seems unemployment is going to spike. I think in a certain county is Ohio alone it went from a little over 6K on unemployment to 78,000 this week alone :(

Agreed. However how is it any different than the "grabbing her by the _____" or Stormy Daniels or any of the sexual harassment cases trump which surfaced prior to trump getting elected??
Again, Biden is not my guy, but how is what he has done anything different from when trump was campaigning?? Sounds like whataboutism, however, if one can vote for trump all things considering, then you don't also get to be hypocritical when the shoe is on the other foot and say how Biden is some sort of sexual deviant, old or has memory loss issues.
I am NOT on board with either men and their behavior WRT to women. Absolutely NOT. However people need to stop moving the goal posts and keep the bar of respect the same height between the two men.
Just like how people glazed over it with trump, here we are. People are glazing over it with Biden sadly :(

The problem is the ships are geared towards folks stacked on top of each other. This is not ideal when treating an infectious disease which is transmitted via the airstream or just simply keeping folks in quarantine :(
The Mercy and Comfort will not treat covid patients, only trauma-based patients. The navy only has a few negative pressure rooms on the ships that will stop the spread of the virus. The Navy can tackle everything except for complex surgeries like brain or endo procedures.

The same way Trump got elected, thanks to the bar being so low it doesn’t matter. He’s running against an Epstein associate that sexualizes his own daughter.

So now someone's verbal statements and acts done in private with another adult are the same thing as an old man inappropriately touching young girls on video over and over again?. Ok.

That is NOT the same and you know it. Harassment is harassment whether it is done in private or not. I am pretty sure when trump says "I just grabbed them by the _____" or "I just kiss them. Kiss them on the lips" while being a married man, is not a "private act". ESPECIALLY when it is done in a public setting like both those acts (at gala events, parties, etc, where there are HUNDREDS of other people! As far away from PRIVATE as you state....... ). Much less so to woman who has not consented. It is also NOT just verbal. It has been demonstrated this is EXACTLY what he does AT PUBLIC PARTY EVENTS.
I am sorry, but GTFO with that shit.
And thank you for demonstrating my point. trump is measured by an entirely different bar by everyone else. And that's not right........

Actually it's not an act. It's a statement.
Trump made a joke about how when your rich, girls just let you "grab them by the pussy" to a college who illegally recorded the conversation so it could be released in just such a situation. If someone had videos of him grabbing girls, hiring prostitutes, etc you'd be seeing it all over the news 24/7.
Crying about Trump having affairs and three marriages is nothing but crocodile tears at this point.
Breaking news, the Democrats/Left destroyed the whole "Christian Right".
You spent 20 years trying to convince America that Bill Clinton letting a college girl blow him in the oval office is none of our business. Gays should marry, affairs are no big deal, and Rolan Polanski is a hero.
Shock, America bought your shit. Now we don't care Trump is a flawed, fouled mouth, tact-less billionaire.
In fact, after 8 years of apologizing and groveling to the world and special interest, we're damn proud to have a straight shooing,, no shit taking bad ass on the button.

And no, Biden was DEFINITELY not my pick for president.
As I said, many times over BIDEN IS NOT MY PICK! HE wasn't even in my top 10, and this was one of the reason....too many skeletons.
Not surprised......

All the Obama nut swingers are going to vote for Biden no matter what. They’ve spent almost 4 years criticizing Trump supporters and talking about the integrity of the office yadda yadda and they themselves are no better.
And Bernie bro’s need not apply. Well unless they too are hypocrites and are going to vote to beat Trump no matter how bad the candidate is.

The absolute hypocrisy with this Biden/Reade allegation again shows the true colors of the Left. Act like they care, but when it comes down to it they really don?t gaf about women being raped and old white men getting away with anything they want. All fucking virtue signaling.
I don?t want to hear another fucking word about Trumps locker talk (grab her by the pussy, etc) or any other allegations.

Yeah... I'm not voting for Biden. Bernie had my vote, not the Democrats- and only because he might have been able to do something about our broken healthcare system. Biden's a senile dude whose charm kept him from getting in too much trouble.
We have a choice between bad and worse. The United States has a choice between bad and worse. Maybe I should get into Fortnite, Animal Crossing, and Post Malone and wear nothing but team-branded official sports clothing and get into CrossFit. Anything but actually giving a shit about the continued existence of a country that was founded on noble ideas by flawed geniuses.
This is, frankly, ridiculous. We should all be champing at the bit for more challengers in the ring. Anyone who thinks we have a viable candidate among the wiiiiiiiiiiiiiide field of two needs some work on their macros.
