For the record, I was responding to Ultis comment since I cant actually see it. Just seems oh so convenient for a person to claim oh whats the big deal, it doesnt affect you when theyre the one in power, yet whine to high heavens about SJWs and Hillary.

Businessman is elected president and he makes life easier and more profitable for other businessmen in a time where corporations (operated by businessmen) are already disproportionately wealthy.
Don't get me wrong this is better than being in the throes of the housing crash, but forgive me for not thinking the number on the stock market ticker is the most important issue our country faces. Its doubly unimpressive when you consider the economic growth and deregulation that preceded our last crash. But hey as long as corporate execs manage to line their pockets before the shit hits the fan lets all smile for the picture!! -_- --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Foxs news division (Chris Wallace et al) is actually mostly reasonable. The problem is that their opinion (Hannity et al) are fucking batshit crazy and they purposefully dont make that distinction clear (plus totally ridiculous editorial decisions with their coverage like more prominently covering Mollie Tibbetts death than Cohen/Manafort, etc)

That was my point, yes. Fox is the closest thing the US has to a reasonable, fact-driven right-leaning news outlet.
And they still go out of their way to hide the reasonable parts and drown it in propaganda and falsehood. The US right wing does not deal in facts, mostly because they don't want to. --- Congratulations to BKSheikah, winner of the BYIG Guru Contest ... Copied to Clipboard!

Not_an_Owl posted...A reminder that every president of these United States has been terrible, though some more than others: It's a bit unfair to judge every president by the standards of today too imo. I see people dragging Churchill in the same way sometimes, he said some pretty racist shit Now Churchill isn't the godlike perfect hero that he's romanticised as sometimes (nobody ever is) but he's not some awful fuck either and in the context of the time, it's not so ridiculous. It would of course be a scandal and severely reduce his chances of getting him elected if he said shit like that today (I would have said "make him unelectable" but I'm not so sure at the moment). --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ...
