It’s pretty impressive to use the Nazi’s treatment of Jews as a warning for government overreach while also being anti semitic. I guess he gets bonus points for that.
I always thought the Jewish nation came after Hitler.
Definitely. The different circumstance is a Trump party president.

This motherfucker.
“Unfortunately the American population is a very diverse … It is a population with significant unhealthy comorbidities that do make many individuals in our communities, in particular African American, minority communities particularly at risk here because of significant underlying disease health disparities and disease comorbidities – and that is an unfortunate legacy in our health care system that we certainly do need to address," he told CNN’s Jake Tapper on "State of the Union.”
“By the way,” he added, “we’re currently trying to take your shitty healthcare away from you and prevent you from being able to afford it at all because of your underlying conditions.”
Tell us about DJT’s ‘comorbidities’.
“Diversity” is the Conservative byword for “Liberals, minorities and everyone else”. Over and over I hear conseratives say there’s nothing anyone can do in America because we’re too “diverse”. It’s impossible to govern America because we’re too “diverse”. It’s impossible to fix America because we’re too “diverse”.
All that “diverse” means to them is that I don’t recognize “liberals, minorities and everyone else” as Real Americans and I forfeit my responsibility and/or duties toward them. And therefore, they should forfeit their ability to influence or ask anything or me in any way. I can’t make them do what i want them to do (stop being diverse), so they can’t make me do what I want to do (reject diversity). Diversity means I can’t have exactly what I want, which is as bad as losing, so diversity = losing.
It’s been so long since the original Star Trek that none of them remember The Enemy Within.
Rove very skilled at calling the dogs. Love for these criminal scumbags to be gone from the Earth.

Not sure exactly where to put this but holy WTF. I can’t tell if he actually rehearsed this or it’s just Trumpian train of thought at play here:
It didn’t even play well here in Nebraska. To his constituents and the intended audience. Very cringe-worthy.

Sounds like a real positive guy. I am sure the people who invited him to speech got exactly what they were expecting because… well it’s not like it’s a secret.
Chris Janicek, Sasse’s Democratic challenger, blasted his comments in a statement to the Omaha World-Herald over the weekend.
“It’s hard for me to believe that a U.S. senator would make remarks like he did in that speech,” Janicek told the outlet.
I agree. I would only expect those sorts of comments from a U.S. President.

Megan McCain: Thanks Obama

If she loses her job at The View I’m sure the New York Times would love to have her.
Meh. I saw, and continue to see, similar sentiments from liberals as well. Obama was “too polite” or “too statesmen-like” to understand the threat Trump and the GOP posed, so he’s partly responsible for Trump winning. In many similar rants, he gets the blame for not raising the issue of Russian interference in the 2016 election enough, etc.
The main thing that Obama did that helped Trump win was be black. But it might’ve helped Hillary if during his administration he had taken decisive federal action to stop the opioid crisis.

It wasn’t Obama, but it was the Democratic party in the wake of Obama winning.
They totally dropped the ball after 2008. They were like, “we won! We don’t need to try any more!”
And the GOP took over like… Every state. And then they used that power at the state level to secure federal power.

No. It was a lot of this.
Nothing says get the rage out than seeing a black man not know his place for 8 years, and then still being called a racist because someone actually is a racist.
