  1. This is the most accurate statement about American politics. Both parties are guilty as fuck. If you still think that your party gets it, and it's the other parties fault, then you are stupid as fuck.
  2. Andy, Is that a serious comment or are you being sarcastic? I've heard that point argued from both sides.
  3. Liberals love to believe they are the party of tolerance. But tend to be highly intolerant of any group that has different social or political views. Not just my opinion, this been identified by respected democrats and studies at liberal universities. http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/28/us/fareed-zakaria-liberals-cnntv/index.html https://www.dailywire.com/news/15909/dartmouth-study-highlights-intolerance-and-james-barrett One of the worst examples of this was Hillary's "Basket of Deplorables" comment during the campaign. Rather than trying to appeal to swing voters that were leaning Trump, she opted for blatant race baiting. IMO, that single comment cost her.
  4. I think Trump "could" get reelected, but definitely not a foregone conclusion. The Democratic party needs to up their game and back someone better than Hillary and probably better than Oprah, or there very well could be a second term. A lot will happen between now and then.
  5. He has scored some foreign policy wins. Even CNN acknowledged that.
  6. Why? Because some people have a different opinion. I'm afraid that is pretty weak.
  7. That describes the majority of senior managers that I have worked with in my professional career...unfortunately.
  8. Narcissist perhaps. Sociopath?..I completely disagree with that. I thought he had a huge ego before politics. I don't think anyone's ego has ever been reduced by being elected President of the United States of America. I do like his take on the economy, I think he understand it as good or better than any President in my lifetime. However, I don't think his personality or twitter account is particularly "presidential."
  9. This is what I meant when I said I tend to agree with his son's comment that he only sees green. Wouldn't doing business and making money on/with people of different races (and he has) be the opposite of racist? It makes him opportunistic and greedy, but not racist. I guess I'm looking for a policy decision that unfairly affects a particular race. I've heard the immigration policy, travel ban, and tax codes referred to as racist, but I don't see it.
  10. I've referred to places like Philadelphia, Detroit, and Gary, Indiana as shit holes because I think they are. Nothing to do with race.
  11. I'll stick with the intended definition of racism which is based on race. While poor, lazy, or immigrants (legal or illegal) have rights they are not considered a protected class.
  12. I'm not trying to point fingers at Democrats or people that dislike Trump. I genuinely want to know the substance behind the comments that refer to him as racist.
  13. I'm hoping this doesn't turn into a poo throwing contest... I've seen a lot of articles lately referring to trump as a racist. Full disclosure...I wasn't a big fan of Trump before the election, and I'm still not (I did prefer him over Hillary, though), but I've never thought of him or his businesses as racist. I pretty much agree with the quote by his son saying that the only color he (Trump) sees is green & and think dollars/economics are the driving factor behind much of his policies. My question is this: Do you think Trump is racist? If yes, what do you think is the most obvious example of him being racist?
  14. This is actually a pretty big deal. I didn't happen under Obama, and couldn't have happened under Hillary.

    Pocket 380s tend to be more picky about ammo than just about any other type or firearm. It's due to the low inertia of the tiny slides. They are also more prone to user errors, like limp wristing, for the same reason.
  16. Agree with VW being absolute junk. The engine seized on GFs Passat when the turbo blew and dumped the oil.
  17. Worth watching. The weirdest guy ever!!!!!!
  18. I really like my Ford Flex Limited. You can fit 7 adults without being cramped. It's great for road trips with kids.
  19. I have a friend that is a appliance repair man. His opinion is that Samsung appliances are the most trouble free. That said, my washer and dryer are Samsung, the washer needed repaired at 5 years old. Kind of dissappointing, but it was fairly minor and works like new again.
  20. The thing that makes life so valuable is that it doesn't last forever. Live it the best you can.
  21. The heavier the recoil, the more likely you are to anticipate it.
  22. For speeding tickets. Watch out for airplanes.
  23. Maybe we need another thread. I just took a small amount of a chocolate available in CO. The feeling was nothing like smoking, it was more like taking way too many pain pills. It was unpleasant. No way I could have driven a car. The person I was with was puking and basically incoherent. Edibles are a huge part of the recreational pot industry. I still think smoking is pretty harmless. No fucking way the stuff I had should be legal... maybe the one I had was just a super strong one but hell no. And I'm no stranger to partying.
