Trump is corrupt. And you can now also add "lying" to your outstanding moral character as I've (and others) definitely and conclusively argued the cas...

You cannot be convinced because you're a party hack and you're not open to arguments. Trump is corrupt and so is the Republican party and people like ...
February 12, 2020 at 09:19
I'm not playing. You know but refuse to reason or are paid to disagree.
February 12, 2020 at 09:01
If you debate a fool people might not know the difference. I'll debate with people who are open to reason. Other than that, since this is a public for...

I think Buttigieg would be a terrible choice.
February 12, 2020 at 08:13
I'm not arguing with him. I'm just stating the facts and employing the same tactic as him and his ilk. If you repeat something long enough others migh...

It's proven Trump is corrupt. You don't need to trust me, you just need the ability to read and reason.
February 12, 2020 at 08:10
Possibly the Democratic half plus the Romney type Republicans. I miss conservatives I could have reasonable disagreement with instead of the populist ...
February 12, 2020 at 07:00
Seriously? You think you need to support the vastly superior democracy that is Finland because "shock horror" your elected parties compromise? Since w...
February 12, 2020 at 06:58
Yet I didn't just now so why bring it up? Oh wait, lawyers can't be trusted so what I say can't be trusted. Whatever man. I'm not wasting time with a ...
February 12, 2020 at 06:02
Was that an attempt at a joke? The best joke here is your maintaining Trump isn't corrupt. As I said before, I don't read US media so I know exactly w...

Considering his reply it's worse.
February 12, 2020 at 05:31
As I said before Trump and his bootlickers are corrupt. You don't need to discuss the merits of that position with NOS4A2 as he's an imbecile or paid ...
February 12, 2020 at 05:30
Exactly true when you mean Trump.
February 11, 2020 at 21:10
That actually might be a cultural thing. Where I'm from (the Netherlands) we use it mostly when someone is being too hard on themselves. So here it's ...
February 11, 2020 at 21:08
In your example it's unhelpful. If you'd drop my favourite mug and I reply with "well, nobody's perfect" I trust it helps you to understand I value yo...

Just another distraction. Meanwhile, Pete Butthole is doing too well in the primaries. I suppose it's progress that white privilege now also extends t...

I like the idea but then I'm biased as a practising lawyer. I'm not convinced though that we can find "Rules" for philosophical discussions. Plus, whi...
February 11, 2020 at 08:28
Lol. The New York Times leans left? What a joke. In the US they don't seem to know what "left" really is. Compared to the Netherlands, Republicans wou...

Actually, US healthcare is among the best in the world. It's just unaffordable because their insurance system is insanely expensive. The litigation cu...

The poor demented old fogey.

Watered down how?
February 08, 2020 at 06:12
That happened before already. Bush Jr. goofball act was the prelude. It's funny to see right wingers play victim, like Trump did again. It's pc in rev...
February 07, 2020 at 20:12
I'm not in Trumpworld.
February 07, 2020 at 07:43
Trump is guilty. I hope he rots in jail after his presidency is up. Whether he'll be prosecuted then remains to be seen but I would consider it a grea...

You're the only one uncritically promoting a turd. You forget most of us aren't US citizens and therefore aren't beholden to the "fake news media" Tru...

What do they put in the water where you live?
February 06, 2020 at 16:36
I'm sorry but what the fuck are you replying to? I'm not misrepresenting anything; I'm telling you that the fact his job approval rating isn't as abys...
February 06, 2020 at 16:23
Who was complaining? You're such an underachiever that you celebrate a president for the worst job approval rating in recent history. It's sad really.
February 06, 2020 at 16:18
I look forward to seeing the Democrats lose to Trump again despite winning the popular vote by an even larger margin.
February 06, 2020 at 16:15
His best job approval rating means jack shit.
February 06, 2020 at 16:14
I couldn't be fucked to get these facts because anything to do with nos4a2 is a waste of time. But yeah, relevant for other readers I suppose.
February 06, 2020 at 11:18
Must be wonderful living in spin world.
February 06, 2020 at 08:02
What disagreement? I mean, when's the last time there was any policy discussion where you could have meaningful disagreement?

Why not? Malfeasance of office comes to mind.

Goodbye. :cry:

I know. One does well to take note of the elephant rampaging in the porcelain shop.

Unless you're unemployed I very well might be. :naughty: The wonders of the internet.

Try to condense your frustration in a single post instead of 5 one-liners.
January 30, 2020 at 16:05
As I've argued in the other thread, this is the only legal argument that can really succeed. Trump, as an elected official, is supposed to know what t...
January 30, 2020 at 07:11
Yeah, that isn't going anywhere obviously.

In other news Trump just threw some Palestinians under a bus.

Right. So he cannot just threaten anyone. That's conveniently vague and also wrong. Nothing about that sentence suggests anything about the severity o...
