Oh yes, their God Emperor.I'll be interested to see how mid terms go. Trump voters are mad at the GOP leadership, rightly intuiting that they despise their "God Emperor." — Count Timothy von Icarus
The GOP doesn't need the Electoral College. They win majorities of House votes. The Democratic dream of minority votes surging against the GOP has never materialized, and by the third generation, new immigrants are far more attracted to the party. Their problem is that their loonies keep winning primaries, and their variously insane and racist messaging is killing them in national elections. — Count Timothy von Icarus
This is the likely outcome, actually. People will just stay away from this loonie crowd. It's not like an angry movement will emerge from somewhere demanding "their party back"! Change will come in the way of people just forgetting past stuff.And as we saw in Georgia, railing about fraud that hasn't occured kills your turn out. So a big upset could be on the way. — Count Timothy von Icarus
It's a religion. And religions are a faith based issue. Not a fact based issue.Like Trumpism though, this can all be explained by the oppression of their base, the evil media, and voter suppression, clearly it couldn't be that they just aren't that popular and need to compromise... — Count Timothy von Icarus
There isn't anything showing intent for Trump — Count Timothy von Icarus
Are you anti-discrimination? — tim wood
Of course you are in favor. Think about it.I am against discrimination on the basis of education. — Metaphysician Undercover
May we say for the sake of accuracy if not sense itself that you are opposed to prejudicial discrimination? Or do you take your car for service to the tea shoppe, have your legal problems resolved by your house-cleaner, and your medical care handled by the boys loitering on your street-corner? Of course you discriminate. We all have to. And when the focus is properly turned to the prejudicial, then we have a different discussion. — tim wood
an entire population of people voted for Trump because they felt their voice was not being heard, — StreetlightX
I love that people like Tim, who is living through a political moment in which an entire population of people voted for Trump because they felt their voice was not being heard, thinks the solution is to deprive people of voices even more.
One can only conclude that Tim is a Trump supporter. — StreetlightX
It seems to me that Trump and his supporters say whatever people want to hear and whatever they believe gains them some kind of advantage, regardless of what's said is true, so the basic strategy is not to silence opposition but to control the truth or reality. — praxis

What I am against is craziness, and I am willing to discriminate non-prejudicially against that all day and all night long. — tim wood
May you, on the other hand, have always kakaphonous in your ear and be subject to the authority of the ignorant, stupid, crazy, and evil. - Or are you already? — tim wood
I don't know how to keep Trumpsters and their ilk from voting. But if I could, I would. Just as I would block most people from owning most guns under most circumstances, as do many jurisdictions in the US, and opposed to those, like Texas, which appears to allow anyone who wants to carry a gun to do so. What I am against is craziness, and I am willing to discriminate non-prejudicially against that all day and all night long. — tim wood
We have to face the fact that @StreetlightX is a man - presumably a man - hostage to his feelings, his life one long groan and cry with compensation only in invective and what he, an otherwise not stupid man, can do with it. Twitter a spineless corporation? Because it shut down Trump? Maybe, just maybe, Twitter has some standards, like TPF has standards. Would you have them be standardless?But I despise — StreetlightX
I missed this first time through. What a great way to get your voice heard - vote for Donald Trump!voted for Trump because they felt their voice was not being heard, — StreetlightX
