But he didn't, we are stuck with TTT, that's why we have this thread, to discuss him and his doins,
I don't know if we have such a thing as an election re-enactment forum?

Tbh, speaking only as a reader, not a participant in this thread, whinges like this (which aren't true, the post in question makes perfect sense) are far more tedious and disruptive than those by the posters you moan about

This bit though is also in there:
"When you include people who didn't vote in 2016, Clinton comes out ahead in the do-over, 41 percent to 37 percent. (Johnson and Stein are still at 5 and 3 percent, respectively.) So some nonvoters appear to wish they hadn't sat the last election out."
So if it was run again tomorrow (not the primaries the election) Clinton would be the winner, right?

Depends on whether they would actually vote this time and where they live.

Meanwhile . . .
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday the U.N. Security Council must be prepared to impose new sanctions on North Korea as concerns mount that it may test a sixth nuclear bomb as early as Tuesday.
"This is a real threat to the world, whether we want to talk about it or not. North Korea is a big world problem and it's a problem that we have to finally solve," he said. “People put blindfolds on for decades and now it’s time to solve the problem.”
Entire U.S. Senate to go to White House for North Korea briefing
All 100 senators have been asked to the White House for the briefing by Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and General Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the aides said.
While top administration officials routinely travel to Capitol Hill to address members of Congress on foreign policy and national security matters, it is unusual for the entire 100-member Senate to go to such an event at the White House, and for those four top officials to be involved.
Linky for those who tweet.
(Edited to include 2nd article - somehow missed that out.)

At least It would be relative to the thread, unlike the whataboutry re;Clinton and Sanders. Buggerinel, even TTT hardly mentions them anymore.

I tried to stop reading, but the more terrible it got, the more the masochistic tendency to read one more snippet of this loons views grew.
The fact that some sections of the MSM are trying to twist his views into some kind of normalacy is beyond belief.

That's not the point that J Ed is probably making as you know.
The problem is that the Democratic party wanted any pro-business candidate.
But what did you know as a Canadian.

But there's evidence of Republican legislators thwarting the investigation into Russian involvement in the 2016 US elections at every turn. Curious, too, there are only 7 part time staff working on the Senate Intelligence Committee investigating this. There were 46 working on the 2014 House Select Committee investigation of the Benghazi attack, and likewise many more for previous probes.
Gosh, you'd almost thing those sitting GOP legislators are worried the investigation might find something damaging to them and the Administration.

It's a good job Kim isn't a jumpy little pyscho-fucker with nukes as Trump's behaviour here looks both a bit mad and simply inept.

That's very weird. Is there any reason to think he's right that sanders fans saw him as a sort of totem non-evil jew?

It's really hard to maintain any dignity of office and an incontinent Twitter habit. Imagine Henry VIII or Louis XV going as mental on Twitter as they did with their courtiers.

This is from a fucking Irish-American catholic who lays great emphasis altogether on Sanders' Jewish roots. What do you fucking think? And what do you think his real motive is? And as for blocking with the fukcing libertarians (liberty for those who have the money to pay for it), he must think people are stupid.

Judging by his pimping of pro-assad black nationalist-stalinist Bruce Dixon and BAR (who i had a lot of respect for before 2011/2), i think he's heavily into abolishing people full stop.

It's an exercise in narcissism, typical USAnian "look at me" guff. I don't think I should reply to the person who sent me that link.

I think you should reply, or banish them from your life forever. It's a really nasty shitty article, gets worse on second reading.

It's overly long and rambling so hard to take much of anything from it tbh.
There is a good point about many white Americans pointing to their oppressed European ancestors when insisting white supremacy is nowt to do with them. (see Irish Slavery thread here as an example)
Can't really follow the 'good secular Jew' argument about Sanders though. Is it that left wing folk cling to him as a fig leaf for their antisemitism? I can't figure that out, nor most of the piece, sorry.
