Divide the country all you like. It's the first step to conquering.
Did they hold violent protests? No, they assembled peacefully sang, prayed made a few speeches and cleaned up after themselves when they left.
Did they use the IRS/EPA/FEC on their political enemies? No, those were all used against them by the Deep (Democrat) State and its agencies.
Did they bug Merkel, Israel and possibly Republican Senators? No, that was the Obama Administration.
Did they play by all the rules and do the American thing of winning power by convincing people that government needed to be reformed and that we were Taxed Enough Already? And having won these elections and being sent to Washington to enact the will of their voters, was it not right and proper behavior to do just that? Yes it was.
Now, the same thing has happened for President Trump (as per the guidelines established over in Renard's thread and as per Fro-DOH!'s contention that all Lit posters are part of the Press, I will say Trump from here on out having shown the proper respect) and how has the loyal opposition behaved? Violent protests, name calling (Hitler/NAZI) never ending serious charges, the press and the Deep state are out to destroy him, everything that we would consider to be Banana Republic behavior.
Now, you keep this up, and you keep calling everyone who doesn't agree with you or see the clear and present danger that you think Trump presents all the disparaging things that you can dream up, because that worked so well for you in the last election, but at this point, between you and me, if Trump says he was bugged and the Democrats, the Deep State, the Press and you say it didn't happen...,
I'm giving Trump the benefit of the doubt because he was duly elected by the people following all the rules of the Electoral College and breaking all of the Democrat (and Press)-established rules of how a Republican is supposed to behave in the face the outrageous slings and arrows of those who feel that they are the elite and the born to rule class.
I agree. There are two types of conservatives (and I use the term loosely) here.
There's the 4th grade type (the miles and vetteman types) who simply spew whatever insults and talking points they read without even understanding them.
And there are the A_J and Ishmael types who view democrats and liberals as the enemy and will use the most twisted logic imaginable to try and defend or deflect criticism away from their "team."
It's somewhat amusing to poke holes in their logic at times, but it's ultimately a waste of time as they have no integrity whatsoever.
But that line about giving Trump the benefit of the doubt was a real hoot.
Zipperhead's goto response to everything is ridicule.
He does not engage in discussion; he is too good for that, too smart, too erudite, too omniscient...,
It's why he's on ignore and why he is so fixated on Ish and me just like so many of the other Left-wing trolls who feel that they have no reason to offer an opinion that they may have to defend, instead they denigrate with their mean girl "humor" those whom they feel might actually have lucid, cogent and effective posting styles in order to signal that this is not a real person of education, but a stupid deplorable. They really never truly learn anything in defeat and self-segregation...
