Trump's Final 100 days
Summary
So the FBI did a background check and briefed the WH on Rob Porter's issues... how he would not be suitable for a security clearance, and how he has potential to be blackmailed and shouldn't be in the office at all.
Then the WH let him be in his position for months, sending out Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Raj Shah (separately) to knowingly lie that the investigation was still ongoing, when in fact they handed them their preliminary findings back in March.

Quote: RSThis just showed up on my recommended list on YouTube. Pretty damn funny. For whatever reason, if somehow people are wondering why Trump was elected and Clinton wasn't, this is why.
Anyway, it seems like SJWs have calmed down recently, or else I just haven't been seeing the news lately. But I think this kinda nonsense is a small indicator on future elections. People don't want to put up with that s***. Or maybe the SJWs will start up again in a year or so, when the campaign for presidency season starts up.
This is why I say expect a violent USA in the 2020s. The woman who had the breakdown over the Confederate Battle Flag caused a demonstration.
Now, she could have just not bought the rugs, or just left it alone. But she decided to make a public spectacle of herself. The SJWs doing this are irritating more and more folks who are getting more and more willing to tell them to drop dead since so many of us are tired of their nonsense. The SJWs spend their lives insulated, and it it like a sheltered woman vs. a guy taking a bump. Guys wrestle and spar, they are used to rough stuff. Women do not, so when they are out somewhere and anything gets physical they are in near shock.
Now, the store had the violent ANTIFA movement over all of this. The two guys got suspended. They did get out of hand, but for her to end up in tears? Over some rugs? ANTIFA shows up, you get violence. People tired of ANTIFA are starting to be ready to fight back.
Bad times are coming. Be ready.

So the FBI refused to issue security clearance because blackmail, WH knew for months but lied to the public saying the investigation was ongoing, and did not remove him from his position handling very sensitive information, AND HAD EVEN PLANNED TO GIVE HIM A PROMOTION.
But the whole 2016 election centered around lying about the security of classified information.
Can a Trump supporter please explain to me (without using the words obama or hillary or clinton) how this wasn't, at the very least, a massively hypocritical outright lie to the American public, and at worst criminal act that threatened national security?

No, they can't.
But I'd love to see them try!
(In addition to not using the words Obama or Hillary or Clinton, they should also not be allowed to pivot to the stock market or unemployment rate, as they usually do when faced with their party's blatant hypocrisy).

In Trump's America, NFL players are called sons of bitches while wife beaters are defended and protected. Oh, and the FBI is corrupt and incompetent. The free press is fake (it was the press that uncovered the Porter story) and the only thing you can believe is Trump's twitter account.
Could it be that all the extra attention that they receive above and beyond all the other races is not beneficial to them? Could it be that groups like Black Lives Matter are detrimental movements? Is it possible that the democratic platform is actually harming them?

I think you are posting provocative posts just to elicit angry responses.

Look at the Japanese, Mexicans, Indians, Pakistanis, etc... As a whole they've all done really well. Why do you suppose the black race is so far behind the others when it comes to successful integration and financial success?
I work with people that are Black;
I don't see the problem that you do with my fellow employees that happen to be black.
I've worked with Blacks from the city, worked with Black immigrants.
Do very good work. Just as intelligent as me (hmm, that may not be saying a lot lol)
I view all people as individuals
Had an operation recently. One of my Dr's was from Zimbabwe.
We joked around. I called her Miss Zimbabwe

Why is it that you lump a hundred or more groups, whose only commonality is the color of their skin, together in order to make a blanket statement about their lack of integration? Could that tendency on your part be part of the problem? All the other groups in your complaint are lumped by country of specific origin or religion.
And yes, this would appear to be a post devoted to eliciting angry responses from others. I would recommend very well-thought out responses, if any, or the banhammer may have to appear.

Well, notify Trump that every time N. Korea acts up, to call for a welfare program for them instead of threats or sanctions.. If you think that will destroy them, he can try it out.
I like experiments.

Is it possible that after slavery followed by a huge swath of this country not allowing them to even drink at the same water fountain had something to do with it
Regarding North Korea... if you want them to fall, simply air drop I pads set up for only Facebook and Twitter. A stupid virus would then infect the nation. After six months, cut the internet feed and don't restore it until they surrender their leaders.
Quote: KeyserErmm...FYI I'm part of a minority group. I'm American Indian. I also have some relatives that are black. The big problem is that we treat blacks as a race much differently than we do other races. Which I think is offensive to blacks and other races. To this day we sell them on the idea that they're not good enough to succeed on their own because they're discriminated against, and that they can't excel in college because the curriculum is white. It's very offensive.
In essence you are agreeing with me
Racism as you described (putting them down and saying they cant succeed etc) is the problem. Racism long ingrained in both whites and blacks due to our troubled history

Yes it is. It's offensive as hell! Every time I see Pelosi and the dems march out and pander to them as though they are pathetic and helpless I just want to throw up!

Corrupt politics and pandering is the bigger problem. The left has done a fine job of telling everyone that anybody that doesn't agree with there policies is a racist. Twitter storms of ignorance reinforce it.

Are you serious? Keyser brought up a valid point IMO and had something to follow it up with -- are these "programs" harming the black community? Maybe it's not the black people's fault for their lack of integration, but "our" fault for nurturing them (bad choice of word, but yolo). Or maybe some of it is their fault and some is "our"s.
One of my friends in college brought up a similarly good point. Some of us were b****ing about there being all this Spanish nonsense. Some restaurants would have Spanish menus, at the DMV you can get Spanish forms (I believe), and overall there are small things here and there that help Mexicans who don't speak English. Hell, I think my high school even had some program for Spanish-only speakers (although I think that was closer to something like ESL).
My friend's point was this -- these things actually harm Mexicans who don't speak English because by getting small bits of help here and there, they're never going to need to actually learn English. They'll just speak Spanish with each other at home, likely get some job where they don't need to know English (picking fruit, janitor/custodial, construction [maybe?], etc.). By never needing to learn English, they'll never learn English, and by never actually learning English, they'll never be able to get good jobs, they're never going to start their own company, etc. Sure, some will learn English, get good jobs, start their own company, get a white collar job, exceed and do well. But if you don't know English, that's almost certainly not going to happen.
There's a reason liberals think the idea of having an ID to vote is racist -- because they think black people can't afford an ID. I know some pretty damn poor black people and all of them have an ID, the only exception is if it gets lost or that kind of thing, but they get another one within a few weeks or whatever.

Well at least Obama's not holding a severed white woman's head like the artist usually paints.
Quote: KeyserThat pic is weird. Looking at the picture, the right side of Obama's head looks like he has something growing out of the highlights. The dark leaves and even Obama's shoes look like there are supposed to be hidden faces in them. My guess is there's supposed to be a lot of secret hidden structures in the picture.

It is obvious that it is projector traced and poorly at that. His left hand is a dead giveaway of poorly interpreting a projector trace. Look at the leaves more closely and notice the repeating batches. The ArtTard couldn't even handle that without cheating.

He already confirmed that with this photo
I kinda assumed it was a spoof at first, but maybe it's real? Idk.
But I do kinda like it. Has a weird vibe to it, like something that Van Gogh would do.

I think there are lots of reasons, both internal and external. Internally, blacks act as a group more than any other minority group. I have had blacks I know, guys with good jobs and a solid middle class life defend black rioters. The guy said, "They're Frustrated!" This is a thing, almost some kind of rule, that a black must always defend another black even if that other black is wrong. You do not see whites defending the behavior of "white trash." When blacks defend this behavior, people either intentionally or unintentionally treat them as a group and not individuals. That holds them back.
Externally, blacks keep getting told they cannot do it on their own. Liberals are the worst here. They cannot get ID to vote. They need affirmative action to get into college. The world is against them. Some will not listen, but too many will. And they will fail.
Finally, too many blacks think they are owed something. For slavery or anything else. So they are waiting around for their 40 acres and a mule. Those same ones tell the blacks who do try to make something of themselves that they are "acting white." Sellouts. Uncle Toms. Again, some will just go on and succeed. But to many, they would rather be accepted in their group.
Must have been a bad week for Donald...
And yep, looks like none of them could defend the WH's handling of the wife abuser.

I think its really sad how the WH have handled Porter
Changing story after story
They should just be honest and tell the truth, Trump could care less about domestic violence if the guy is a republican.
It amazes me that disgusting piece of filth, Porter, was able to keep his job so long

Quote: MaxPenThank goodness for Trump stepping in and getting the ship back on course. Had it continued there would have been no doubt where the path to America's failure began by historians looking back 1,000 years from now
More fake news. This is not Obama’s official presidential portrait, like the others that meme you found on Facebook is comparing it to.
This is the Smithsonian’s commission for their Presidential Exhibit, and those are generally done in a much more modern style.
His actual official portrait (like some others you found on the Alex Jones fan page) will be done in the same style, these usually take 3-4 years to complete.
But of course Trump supporters suddenly become art critics when someone tries to discuss the fact that Trump outwardly lied and risked national security by hiring (and planned a promotion for) someone he knew was a wife beater and had no security clearance.

Confederate Flag is not racist, it is a symbol of the south, rebellion, wanting the feds to leave you alone. It is also a snowflake detector. It is working well.
Is a cross "racist" just because the KKK burns them in ceremonies?

Missed them. In the meantime, Trump has put together a decidedly anti-conservative budget that grows the deficit somehow by 7 trillion over 10 years. Ah, the good ol' days of fiscal conservatism, the tantrums the GOPs put up when Obama wanted to spend, all gone now. And of course the cost of borrowing is going up, because inflation is going up, as are interest rates. In the end, the taxpayer will end up paying for it through the low dollar (cost of imports) and higher costs of borrowing. A .25% move in interest rates means that it will cost the government 40 billion more to service the debt.
Where is the GOP who supported the Constitution and are fiscally conservative? Why would the GOP support any budget that raises deficits further and threatens to destabilize the economy? The party is a disgrace.
And yes, I am no longer listening to people who just blindly support Trump without rhyme or reason. There are simply no logical reasons that one can put any positive words on his presidency. If anything positive, it's that we have open debate about the policies he's enacting (not here apparently).
Quote: RSTo be fair (I'm always fair), I kinda like the painting. I mean, it's weird and creepy. What's the deal with the leaves? Are there leaves on the ground AND leaves going up a wall? If so, there isn't a clear cut from ground to wall. His left leg is a little retarded looking. The left hand (between wrist and fingers, in case you couldn't already tell) is fricken gigantic. It almost looks like it's photoshopped or something, where the leaf on the highest part of the chair is just wonky and so are the leaves around his feet/legs.

I like it too. Like I mentioned, it's for the Smithsonian Gallery, not the ultra traditional "Official Portraits" that go in the white-house. For modern presidents, they tend to go with a more modern art style, which is completely in the spirit of the exhibit.
Look at Clinton's or FDR's, or JFK's, or Reagan's and you will see that the Obama's portrait for this gallery is not unusual or a national embarrassment.
FDR's is straight up terrible though, and the artist for Clinton's was totally trying to tell him he had a big shnozz.
Plus, this painting of Obama led us to this gem:

Everyone understands the point of the question. It is trying to compare a racist symbol the comfederate flag created out of and for racist reasons with the cross which was perverted to racist means thru burnings
An attempt to make plain crosses and plain bedsheets comparable to the confederate flag
Forgive me if i didnt fall for it
Hey guys why not parade a swasticka around in a synagogue and ask the cross and bedsheet question to the jews praying inside
