Only Hillary, huh?

She's the only notable person running in the last election who voted for Iraq. Trump didn't. Bernie didn't. They knew what was up


How was trump in a position to vote on that?

Irrelevant, he didn't vote for it


So there was not a vote that he was eligible to participate in. That is the point you are making. "he is okay because he was not eligible to vote on something and that's the same as him voting the way I agree with."

Or maybe in colloquial speech people don't really need to be numerically specific with their language when trying to make a larger point about the pointlessness of focusing on accidental gun deaths as opposed to other, more common accidental deaths.

We all know everyone always thinks specifically of toddlers when they hear "kids". You know, the only group of kids that gives him a point.

I think they're more likely to think of toddlers than a 6' tall 17 year-old when they hear the word "kid", yes.

But what if they are even more likely to think of 8-10 year olds than either of those? Or the entirety of humans under the age of 18? His point falls apart, no?I

Since he specified no such age range, no, his point does not fall apart.

If the lady he was talking to pointed out that only toddlers are more likely to drown in bathtubs than be accidentally shot than 12 year-olds, Tucker would probably have said "Ok, pools then."

And his point would be the same.


Do you have a source about whether or not he would have said that?

There was a poll topic asking which is the most dishonest of CEs conservative posters and Mal took that in a land slide, so it's not like CE doesn't already know the dude is full of shit.

There was also a CE poll that showed white males are the most discriminated group in the US by a landslide XD


Which is the option I voted for because I thought it was funny and I'm sure a lot of other people joke-voted too, though that proves your point. On the other hand, people are far more likely to be serious in the poll with you than in the discrimination one, so I call into question the validity of the comparison.

Calling out the President for his stupidity isn't being triggered.

Yeah, there's a weird contortion right wingers have to do where acknowledging that something is dumb or bad or amusing amounts to being "triggered." It's why you still see them ranting about the "two scoops" thing, as if at the time it was anything more than an amusing anecdote.


This in a nutshell:

IB1VmXu

This comic is so perfect. People aren't triggered by Trump, we're laughing at the idiot.


The problem with the comic is that it had already been overused to the point of losing its luster.

It's telling that he has to remind us who that is.


Yeah, basically it is because he was expecting that if he left out the (me), people would make snide remarks by naming other presidents as their favorite, but if they did that with (me), he could say "nuh uh! You can't say ____ is your favorite because I put (me) in there so it's binding that I'm your favorite!"

I like how Bernie Bros continue living in denile and blaming the DNC as if whatever ?rigging? there was stole the nomination from Bernie.

Hillary was the most popular Democrat after Obama.

Hillary was the popular choice in primary polling.

Hillary was the popular choice in primary votes (and subsequently in delegate count, even without the superdelegates)

Maybe you should re-evaluate your choice in political parties instead of grouping yourselves with one that is full of deplorables. A party full of voters and leaders that admire that vile woman and her rapist husband. But but Trump!

What other scenario is there? You're either masculine or you're not.

It's a spectrum


No it's not. That only exists in your PC fantasy land. If you have high levels of testosterone then It will affect you by making you more masculine. If you have high levels of estrogen as a guy it will make you feminine like the buzzfeed soy boys.


So people can only have high testosterone or high estrogen? No moderate levels of one or both? At what precise level of testosterone does one become masculine? If someone dips slightly below that level, do they instantly morph into a "feminine buzzfeed soy boy?" Is it impossible for someone to have high levels of both testosterone and estrogen? Please, enlighten us with your expertise on biochemistry.


All I'm saying is that men with low testosterone and high estrogen tend to be really feminine. Lay off the soy guys.


I agree with them and I haven't had Chinese food in over a month.

Playing dumb? Why would I have believed anyone would actually do anything? My phrasing was not encouraging or suggestive. I was presenting a scenario that I would have found amusing but had no intention of participating in and no pretense that anyone would read it and decide to do it. That's how I am.
