The Official Former President Trump thread

Recommended Posts

Stunning developments in the Democrats latest 'Progressive' wielding of an identity group (here, women) as political weapons against a target who is a member of the target oppressor identify group (man, white, straight).

Seems after many days screeching about women being believed and being heard, the accuser Ford now doesn't want to be heard, and moreover it's another form of oppression to expect her to speak. Stunning misogyny treating women like wallflowers who require different standards :angry: #listenandbelieve

Je Suis Brett.

That is literally it, the Outrage Machine finally nailed him, Trump is DONE for now. SHOCKING stuff from Junior imo.

:lol:

No one is suggesting that. Just pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of people like Trump and Trump Jnr who rail against "fake news" only to then, erm, spread fake news.

If we take the example of Roy Moore, I don't think these Kavanaugh allegations will change anything. If anything, he'll probably be more popular with conservatives. A good number of these weirdos get off through men who abuse women, as that is what their definition of a real man is.

I have no idea if he's guilty or not, but producing a list signed by 60 odd woman stating he never raped them is pretty suspect behaviour IMO.

You may well be right but pushing Kavanaugh through and ignoring the allegation will strengthen the Democrats position in the midterms.  Next to the unlikely chance of blocking Kavanaugh it’s the best outcome.

The Democrats will be making a mistake if they push this too hard, a teenager behaving badly at a party 30 odd years ago without corroborative evidence of a serious offence, won't go down well. The strategy is probably to delay the nomination till after the midterms, but that's a high stakes game, and they could lose votes because of it.

Roy Moore lost an unlosable race. 

The Democrats are not trying to turn Trump fans against him, they are trying to turn out moderates against Trump and the closer this drags to the mid terms the more its one more issue in peoples minds. 

Roy was a 30 odd year old getting a 14 year old to strip for him, this is less resonating, and only one accuser with very vague memories. The Democrats are trying to delay his nomination so they can likely block it by force of numbers after the mid-terms.

It’s a continuing narrative with a Sumpreme Court nominee being proposed and supported by a guy who boasts about grabbing pussy.

Keeping this in the news as long as possible is important.

No one is voting for Kavenaugh, they are voting for the men and women who are supposed to hold Trump to account. The Democrats need people in Wisconsin and Michigan to be motivated to vote for people who will look at court nominations, oversee the spending and tax cuts, who will look out for their medicare. 

Its one piece is a very large puzzle. Its not like there are not a lot of other women who had similar experiences with over excited boys in their youth, its not like there is not a pool or empathy out there.
