Bruh, Obama presided over the single largest ever increase in the national debt. Dude literally doubled it. The stimulus package shoveled millions and millions of dollars into various types of dumb bullshit. Every current candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination supports providing free healthcare to illegal aliens (at taxpayers' expense, of course).
No they want to give healthcare to all American citizens. That's just away to twist and demonize a good thing. Every American citizen deserves the same medical treatment.

Anything to justify your support of Republicans raising the debt I see.

We have programs and entitlements in place that currently exist and must be funded, and most of those things are there because of Democrats.


Because god forbid we help the people who live in this country. Man Republicans are sure something when they see helping people as a problem, but wasting money to hurt people is fine.

Pretending to win is the only thing they got. It's not like Trump or his supporters have ever won anything on their own merits.

" parties of an incumbent president seeking reelection have a long history of canceling primaries and note it will save state parties money"

But let's have everybody cry about how this is an unprecedented and possibly illegal subversion of democracy

Just because it's been done before doesn't make it not undemocratic. That's incredibly stupid fucking logic. That's like saying modern voter suppression isn't undemocratic since it's been done in the past.


It's just very convenient how all these things that have been going on for years under both Democrats and Republicans that no one ever gave a shit about have all of a sudden become terrible now that Trump in is office.

Yeah dude Im a BIG ol Trumper. Good to see youre talking about reality and not some weird projected malevolence. Yup.

Look at the posts he made and the responses he got. I dont agree with what hes got to say, but Im not gonna give a middle schooler's response to what he said and pretend like its not desperation or bigotry. Even if he was dead wrong and evil......2 IQ Facebook responses arent making anyone but yourself look foolish. Maybe your teammates will back you up, but most educated people can see that shit for what it is. 13 year olds playing politics.

How so? Do give me more than one of those blurbs we just talked about.

I dont support ignorance and bigotry in the Democratic party. You should be able to read and analyze whats being said as opposed to just seeing red and blue. I shouldnt have to go on about how the GOP should burn every time I criticize disgusting behavior, but clearly some teens need it spelled out for them that their party is made of flawed human beings and not deities spawned from checking the "D" box.

My understanding is that the primaries are not something that is defined by our govt or our Constitution, it's just a thing that the parties themselves put together as a nomination process, so as far as I'm concerned they can do whatever they want.


I feel the same but its funny to see the same people crying about Hillary getting the nom two years later are now here telling us that Trump getting the same treatment is no big deal.

Shits pretty funny.

Republican Party hates democracy

Says the supporter of the party that has "Superdelegates" Who aren't subject to voting for anything but what the party decided for their primary.

And also, did the Republicans hold a primary when Bush was running for reelection? I don't recall. I do know the Democrats didn't run one when Obama went for a second term, making bitching about this just stupid partisanship.

You understand there are some very key differences, right? Hillary had competition. There was every reason to have a primary. Youre kidding yourself if you think theres anyone in the GOP who could pull 10% of the vote.

The point no one cares because these are primaries and it's really not a big deal. No one cared when it happened in the past. People are pretending to care because Trump is in office now. And no one will care the next time it happens under the administration of whoever succeeds Trump.

Great economy. Low unemployment. Significant steps have been taken in regards to addressing minorities and other underrepresented groups. Things are better in every aspect I can think of.

False. Did you forget the first Democrat primary where every single candidate raised their hand for free illegal immigrant healthcare? Also 2 of them going out of their way to speak Spanish?

For the record, the Democrats supporting Healthcare for undocumented immigrants are generally in favor of subsidized/free Healthcare for all Americans.
