She's Baaaaaaaack....Or Is She?

I don't think the bear is a Trump supporter.
Wut?
@SoyLeche looks like a bear to you? That's who I was quoting.
He looks more like me, to me. Based on his avatar.

And get your roles correct....you're the Bible tote'n fundie here.
I'm the atheist descended from apes (well over 2 centuries ago).

When you start referring to me as a Bible tote'n fundie I know you've given up.

Compared to me, you're the creationist (the term you brought up).
Wait a darned minute.
From your belief, indistinguishable from Scripture, that human beings don't matter until they draw breath to your belief that Trump is president regardless of the American people voting, indistinguishable from the Divine Right of Kings, you look like the creationist to me.
I believe in biological science and democracy. You don't.

Keep our roles straight.....I'm the atheist, you're the believer.

I think you're safe so long as you're currying
Digital's favor with anti-business rhetoric.
But I've been tweaking the wrong noses.
I'm not anti-business.
I'm anti-corruption. Like when huge corporations buy government officials.

Here, follow the money.

Eli Lilly produces anxiety drugs and sells them for 1000× what they cost to produce.
Eli Lilly then invests a fraction of the profits in "tough on crime" politicians who then invest in high performance policing that results in people incarcerated in private prisons.
And then the investors in the private prisons give kick backs to the judges who send the most people to jail. Heck, nothing illegal about a judge investing in a for-profit prison. They'd never even have to admit to doing so if they set up their financial records as well as Trump set up his before running for office.

I assume you're pulling Clinton out of your *** again?

I know what actually happened back in the 90s concerning "superpredators".

But I'm not even sure what your talking about, you're just dodging and flailing incomprehensibly.

Ya know what's one of the things I despise the most about Trump?

That the Democratic party will have to join his race to the bottom.

They'll have to get even better at lying and cheating and treason and media manipulation to have a chance in this election. And I already despise them, as a group. But they have to get even worse or Trump will outgame them again!

I accept that, but we didn’t get the one that people disliked the least, which is what the claim was.

There was actually a discussion on NPR, I cannot find and I cannot give source, other that NPR. Where th statement was made that the Democratic party did not quite understand. It was not so much that everyone liked Trump more, it was they liked Hillary less. This was based on statistics not the votes themselves. I am neither Democrat or Republican so party affiliations mean nothing to me. I just found it interesting. There was also one that discussed how the Republican candidates missed the boat too. They kept trying to play up how they were of the Republican establishment and Trump was not, he was an outsider, therefore they should get the nomination not this outsider. They did not quite get that many Americans were fed up with the Republican establishment/insiders, or any political establishment in general and Trump was not part of any political establishment and therefore we got Trump

It seems nearly impossible to get the Basket of Deplorables to recognize basic facts.
It's like trying to explain biology to a Creationist.
Tom

Deplorables....really...... why, because I don't agree with Democrat OR Republican...because I am not a rabid fan of Hillary or Trump....because I am cable of coming up with my own views and not letting some political party tell me how I should think......frankly the problem in Government at the moment is both parties do not see beyond their party affiliation and don't give a hoot about the country or the people in it beyond a vote... Kind of agreeing with George Washington who is being proven correct, based on the goings on in DC today. Political parties are a bad thing because those in them will vote for what's best for the party over what is best for the country...if that's what makes me deplorable...well then I guess I am....r

Ummmm...
Perhaps you could learn to type with claws better?

You don't sound very different from me. I certainly didn't refer to you as part of the Basket of Deplorables, that was @Revoltingest. He proudly claimed the label, he put it on his RF description.

Until, IIRC, Trump dumped the peace treaty with Iran. Then Rev didn't feel so Deplorable.
I could be wrong.

What did I say that gave you to think I was referring to you?
Tom

ETA ~ Oh wait.
I think I understand now.
You've got @SoyLeche on <ignore>. So you posted something even more stupid than anything he ever considered posting.

Is that right?
I'm asking.

That post (not entirely serious) was about playing your game.

The fact remains, Clinton was the American electorate's top choice in 2016.

And that was despite the fact that "Sanders the spoiler" gave zillions of people an excuse to stay home and assume that Clinton was going to rescue the USA from Trump. Because that's what all the polls indicated.

I don't think that will be the case in 2020.

:shrug:

Popular vote was meaningless. We’ve been down this road before.

I was just observing them this time.
If "observing" means consuming & upchucking'm.
You worked tirelessly & in concert with your ilk to shift
the thread to Drudge instead of Bloomberg & Clinton.
Your crew's deflection & denial are legendary on RF.
