He comes off as an asshole because of the content


i just told you it's the exact opposite of this. he comes off as an asshole because that's his personality (or his public persona).

like, when he says something i agree with (like "GWB's war on terror was terrible") i don't suddenly think "wow what a nice guy." i think "yup, he still comes off as an obnoxious asshole."

Yup turns out appeasing the freedom caucus is about as useful as electing them in the first place.

Thanks for a do-nothing congress, Tea Party.

https://www.rawstory.com/2017/05/al-franken-paralyzes-doj-lawyer-by-asking-if-bannon-inspires-hate-crimes-thats-not-answering-my-question/

I just want to call attention to this.

Not the story, nothing about Al Franken talking.

I want to talk about Treene's reasoning that the rise in hate crime doesn't mean anything.

He believes it doesn't mean anything because the data is incomplete, because the police probably aren't reporting all the hate crimes.

He believes the rise in hate crimes isn't provable by data because there's even more of them than what we're being told.

Where did these people learn to present an argument? Like, this one isn't even them trying to make the pieces fit of things Trump said. Trump said jack shit about this. This is completely this guy's own thing.

From the climate change skepticism school of "it doesn't even matter if you actually have an argument at all".

It turns out you can just say things. Whatever you want, really.

I'm either that perv as well or one of the darker-shaded white people meant to represent diversity on the left side.

Also, cartoon would be more accurate if Trump was copping an Ivanka feel like we all know he would.

The thing of it is Trump *used* to be at least a clever and somewhat charismatic guy (for those of us old enough to remember when he was just Famous Rich Celebrity). I think sometimes people are just remembering *that* guy and choosing to pretend he hasn't crumbled into a senile old shell of himself

Kind of like Reagan that way, amusingly enough

I won't deny Trump has a presence. I think that's hard to argue against.

It's just when he opens his mouth he loses me completely, no matter what he's talking about. His train of thought is chugging along on some unfathomable Möbius strip

Of course he has a presence. He's orange. That's going to make anyone notice him.

Very high.

But still! I remember election night when I was freaking out, people telling me that he loves LGBT people and will never take any action against them. And I told them they were deluded. And they were.

It's not 100%.

But that's basically because nothing is 100%.

Those people:

A) hate gay people and were intentionally lying
and B) think that this is just religious freedom (what could be bad about that?) and not an infringement on human rights.

So it's a mix of being deluded and being downright hateful.

Pro-LGBT to some people means he is unwilling to fire them out of a cannon into the sun.
