Straight outta pathalogical liar Trump's yap.I don't think it was Covid that caused them to cheat like that. They just used it as an excuse to show us who they really were and pull the wool over everyone's eyes. Trump exposed the left as being the liars, thieves, rioters. looters, arsonists, and murderers they really are. But nobody ever thought they'd have the balls to try to steal an American Presidential election.
Now we know.
Okay, I don't know who the fuck you are but you're going straight onto my Ignore list.Democrat crime gang: "We're not a crime gang - the OTHER crime gang is a crime gang!!!"
Pretending that the Democrats are anything other than conservative corporate psychopaths is as pathetic as it it dangerous to decency.
And Obama also belongs in prison for life; he's a horrenedous war crininal.
Yes. He isn't abandoning are allies, or embarrassing us on the world stage, or playing golf while the country dies of a worldwide pandemic, or playing favorites with aid to states suffering natural emergencies, or favoring one business over another, or paying farmers not to farm, or letting our agriculture products rot rather than sell them to the Chinese, or use the White House for political events, or commit campaign finance crime by paying off a porn star, or hire his kid to be a presidential advisor, or allow his kid to make $720 million off of his office while he's in office, or funnel taxpayer money into his personal business or play spend time/play gold at one of his properties for a full 1/3 of his presidency.So are you happy with your President? Is he everything you expected?
So you folks all think that had Obama pushed a liberal agenda harder we never would have ended up with Trump?![]()
Obama’s Failure to Adequately Respond to the 2008 Crisis Still Haunts American Politics
Meltdown, a new podcast from David Sirota and Alex Gibney, makes a compelling case that the failures of 2008 and 2009 — when Barack Obama had a chance to enact the visions of reform that swept him into office — are key to understanding American politics today.jacobinmag.com
from the article, which i agree with:
For parts of the United States’ liberal intelligentsia, the election of Donald Trump was (and still is) an enigma: a kind of one-off rupture in space and time, unexplainable by the laws that typically govern the universe. One possible explanation of these omissions is that a more honest grappling with the financial crisis and its implications inevitably also involves a reckoning with the record of the Obama administration — a reckoning simply too uncomfortable for some to undertake.
When it comes to the financial crisis of 2008–9, the story told by senior officials in the Barack Obama administration was quite literally that the corporate greed and malfeasance at the root of the collapse couldn’t be prosecuted because no one was actually responsible. “The buck still stops nowhere,” as attorney general Eric Holder put it in 2014: “Responsibility remains so diffuse, top executives so insulated, that any misconduct [can] be considered more a symptom of the institution’s culture than the result of the willful actions of any single individual.” This explanation certainly pleased the country’s leading bankers. But it has also proven mightily convenient for leading Democratic figures themselves, who had appropriately devised the perfect chin-stroking rationale for their own refusal to attack the crisis at its roots or put the interests of average people ahead of Goldman Sachs’s bottom line.
That meltdown, it turns out, isn’t just the economic crisis itself but also the institutional response to it — a response that is deeply interwoven with both the Democratic collapse of 2016 and the continued rise of the extreme right
the meltdown of 2009 is this generation’s pivotal moment. Not the bank failures or the stock market crash in 2008. Those were obviously disasters. But the political disaster that came after. Our government stopped working for its citizens during a moment of profound crisis. We need to unbury this moment, to reexamine it. Because the failure of government then gave us the world we live in now.
Never put em on ignore. Then you won't know what they say and can't respond.Okay, I don't know who the fuck you are but you're going straight onto my Ignore list.![]()
I don't have time for new USMB retards - there are still plenty of old ones left.
He went on an apology tour, decimated our military started the war on police and set race relations back 50 years. His economy was terrible. He also gave aid and comfort to Iran. He is a traitor and disgrace to the office of president.
It is not uncommon for people like you to try and insult people. What I said about Obama is the truth.It's not uncommon for people like you with low intelligence and paranoia out of control, to be ignorant of facts.

US politics especially on this forum can breakdown to jokeable at stages...No more than I was a republican when I voted for Nixon, Reagan, Daddy Bush and gobs of republican Senators and Governors.
You can PM me the joke. I may not know that one.
Fabulous!Okay, I don't know who the fuck you are but you're going straight onto my Ignore list.
Typical liberal/Democrat bigotry/hate speech.I don't have time for new USMB retards
^ Ironic projection.- there are still plenty of old ones left.
I don't give a shit what they say. They're morons.Never put em on ignore. Then you won't know what they say and can't respond.
Just simply ignore them when that is what needs to b done
Then it looks like you and I agree on Obama because you said nothing about him in your reply. Good man.It's uncommon for people to try and insult people.
It's very rare that I can't succeed at my first attempt. You're as easy as taking wheat from blind chooks.
Keep going.
You are the LAST person to be talking about banks...whitehall
I remember it well. Frank decided everyone should own a home even if they didn't have a job. He forced banks to loan them the money. When they couldn't pay they just walked away. Leaving the bank with thousands of houses to sell.
Oh yeah. Frank said Fannie and Freddie were solvent when he knew they weren't. Man couldn't retire fast enough to get the hell out of the mess he created.
My piece was written above. I stand by it and you can't refute it.Then it looks like you and I agree on Obama because you said nothing about him in your reply. Good man.
Like I give a fuck about what you say. Next.My piece was written above. I stand by it and you can't refute it.
