Like this one: "take a lap". That's the best you could come up with.

I give it back to those who give it to me.

Trump supporters here’s your chance to make some easy cash.
Trump is +155
Probably the best odds you’ll get.
If I’m not mistaken trump was plus money the day before leading into election back in 2016 as well.

To the guy who was pointing out how many "righties" have been banned, here's a perfect example. It's okay to call someone a racist just because of which side they are on. That won't get you banned. Can't be offending people, right?

"I dont have anything to say about the Obama riots". Yeah, I knew that already. That was my whole point.

Lol ok...first off im not on the “Left” I just hate Trump. I wish there was a better (R) for hire...but they are all hiding right now. No ballz...
Second...Obama didnt start a Civil War....but Trump has or we wouldnt be having this conversation.
You back your racist and i’ll back the guy who doesnt remember where he put his car keys.

BTW-im a white boy who grew up in LA during the Rodney King riots. I was the minority at my school...all of them. I have watched with my own eyes how the system works...I have been pulled over multiple times for “Salt & Pepper” driving in Los Angeles and Seattle. And I have seen innocent lives lost first hand...enough already. Trump doesnt give 2 F’s about you...therefore you are considered a “BlowPop”..sucker.
Its a very cruel world and if we ever want to come back together....FIRE THE LIAR!

I can't have it both ways? Is it really unreasonable for me to expect a president to lead the country in times of crisis and not be a pathological liar? Regardless of what party they belong to or what their political platform is? I must really have unreasonable expectations.

Also someone else mentioned that all politicians have lied. Yea I have news for you, everyone has lied before including myself. There is a big difference between someone that lies .1% of the time and someone that lies 90% of the time. It is like comparing someone who shoplifts a candy bar to someone that commits armed robbery of a bank. Saying that they are both theft so are both the same thing.

The Civil War started during the Obama administration on social media. No one person started it. This country was split well before the glorious election night in 2016.

You forgot what you already said, though. You said that he was already not worthy of anyone's trust. Therefore, you would not have listened to him no matter what he said.

Remember the reaction from the left when Trump shut down incoming travel from China?

Amazing take. And you're not the only person who thinks this way; that's even more amazing.

Scream it from the rooftop "MY GUY LIES LESS, THAT MATTERS!"

Uh, I don't need Trump to care about me. And just to let you in on a little secret, Joe Biden doesn't care about you.

Is that where I get to call you "sucker"?

So, we do nothing to repair it? I think there is definitely the beginnings of the Civil War during Obama for the simple reason that an African-American man was in the White House. Many could not stand that, so yes there was a division at that point. Trump has widened that chasm, and I do not think you can argue that point. Someone posted Acosta's tweets from 2017: Trump denounced racism, but did not particularly address White Supremacy. These actions divide. Leaders are supposed to bring people together.

And where are people denouncing BLM? That was created before Trump.

Curiously, this is actually where you lose a lot of people.

To some, there is no difference between a pathological liar and a garden variety liar.

I don't agree with calling people racists, or telling people to drink cyanide so there you go.

Both are inappropriate.


You know where the triangle is....have at it.

Oh my goodness.

Right, there was a split under Obama because the racists couldn't stand having a black guy in office. It had nothing to do with being called a racist, homophobe, deplorable just for having the nerve to disagree with the left.

I can't believe you just pinned all of this on the right.

In other words, the "righties" must not be hitting the triangle nearly as much as the lefties do, since way more righties have been banned. We now see who is unhinged.

Thank you for fumbling and letting me take it all the way back for a touchdown.

Lots of people from that SCOTUS announcement testing positive.

POTUS
FLOTUS
HICKS
MIKE LEE

Why should we denounce the thought that Black Lives do matter. Whites are not supreme. Do you see the difference?

Go back and take a second look; that Tweet did specifically say KKK and white supremacists.

You've got to be kidding.

[Lonewolf]

Is it possible that Trump's positive test is just bs? I would love to see independently verified test results from a neutral medical party.

I could see Trump pulling something desperate like faking a coronavirus infection just so he can proclaim, I had it, I got over it, no big deal.

Perhaps it's too tin-foiley for some, but never underestimate a conman...

I heard somewhere that truth, science, and data outweigh opinions and conspiracy theories.

You get called those things when they are true. You get mad about it when you fail to see that you are part of the problem. You seriously cannot be this obtuse. I did not blame it all on either side. What I granted was that you are right, it happened under Obama. I also said that a leader would try to repair what is broken, not make it worse. I am sure that you will ignore that again, but it is there. Nothing has been done to mend, only to cater to his voting populace.

OK, so I condemn BOTH sides of this board for poor behavior and I'm the unhinged one?
