Republicans are quite simply un-American

The word "conspiracy" simply means a covert plan by two or more people.

It is....and a conspiracy theory is...

Definition of conspiracy theory
: a theory that explains an event or set of circumstances as the result of a secret plot by usually powerful conspirators

Nowhere does that say conspiracy theories are necessarily wrong.

What's difference does it make if a word or two is missing? It doesn't change anything does it?

Then what was your point in calling Allison a conspiracy theorist, and the eyeroll?

 

[BotanyBoy]

Because the whole Russiagate bit is a totally unsubstantiated conspiracy theory.

It could be true....but neither she nor anyone else has been able to prove a bit of it.

Yeah... this grade, from the very same "professor" who considers Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to be one of the more intelligent women in the U.S. House of Representatives!

YDB95 writes: "And Republicans were calling for Clinton's impeachment before he took office as well."

Bill Clinton was a serial-abuser of women back before the #Me,Too protest movement came along to frown upon that sort of thing. He got money from Hollywood "progressives" like Harvey Weinstein (who ALSO regularly abused women!) It was no big deal back then, which is why that Democrats insisted that treating women like crap was NOT an impeachable offense!

Russia has TWO close allies in the middle east, Allison: Iran & Syria! Barack Obama did everything Russia asked - shipping billions of dollars to the Iranians, and then backing off of his "red line in the sand" threat to attack Syria if the Bashar al-Assad regime used poison gas against its own people. Obama ALSO did absolutely nothing when the Russians annexed portions of the Ukraine (including the entire Crimean peninsula!)

When Donald Trump became president, he immediately began to squeeze the balls of Russia's ally Iran - so much so that there's rioting today in Iran against that regime by its own people! Trump also fired cruise missiles at the Syrian air force over Russian objections. Now YOU may call those actions pro-Russians, but nobody else is (and certainly not Russia's allies Iran and/or Syria!)

I don't suppose you've even skimmed the Mueller Report?

Read every word of it.

Then you know your claim above is bullshit. Go figure.

It's not bullshit.

There is absolutely nothing in that report that proves "Republicans of the year 2019 have shown themselves to be far more loyal to Russia than they are to the United States of America. Republicans are waging a war against America's intelligence community and deliberately assisting a hostile foreign power." .

Which is why you won't go quote anything from it that does.

Only thing you'll do is talk some shit, deflect and then maybe go back to ignoring me because that's all you can do.

Depends on what you view as proof, but it does demonstrate that there was collusion in 2016, and there's no reason to believe Republican loyalties have shifted since then. Quite the contrary.

Interesting complaint coming from someone who routinely starts every debate from the position that your opponents hate America. But I guess it is fair to say ignoring you is "all I can do" when it comes to trying to reason with that attitude.

 

[BotanyBoy]

ANYTHING that remotely supports the bat shit insane claims she made.

There is nothing to support it or 99% of the other "RUSSIA!!!" bullshit that gets tossed around.

but it does demonstrate that there was collusion in 2016,

If you really want to stretch things, and it depends on what you view as proof.

I don't, I only think authoritarians hate America...because duh. Can't be a fascist/socialist who supports unnecessary infringement upon peoples rights for the sake of control and love the USA.

 

[YDB95]

Can't be a fascist/socialist, period. They're fundamentally different things. It's like telling someone to go north-south.

That's why I put a slash between the two.

I know they are fundamentally different things, but they are both very authoritarian, illiberal and thus anti-American.

Ford was eight presidents ago, not six. And Republicans were calling for Clinton's impeachment before he took office as well. Not that it matters with respect to the matter at hand today, which isn't even really in dispute - Trump was dumb enough to say he'd done it before he knew it was illegal.

Lost for words or being terse for a change ?

That's an F for dump! As expected. A more comprehensive example of wilful ignorance is unlikely to be found anywhere outside the White House, specifically the Oval Office.

Just gradually slowing it down for Turkey day. I can't just quit cold turkey!

Donald Trump tells us that the United States Constitution is a “really bad thing” and expresses frustration that the Separation of Powers keeps him from acting like a dictator.

Trump has gone so far as to declare war on America’s Free Press and incite violence towards investigative reporters. And he has also taken an outraged and hostile attitude towards the First Amendment.

With an openly hostile attitude towards the Constitution of the United States, Trump has threatened to eliminate the First Amendment protections the Supreme Court has built into our nation’s libel laws – and has suggested that he will soon start revoking the FCC licenses of media outlets that he doesn’t like.

This right here tells you everything you need to know about Trump's commitment to American values.

The Democratic Party has wanted to impeach President Trump ever since he defeated Hillary Clinton back on November 8, 2016. They currently have the votes in the House to make it happen, but remain WOEFULLY SHORT of having the necessary votes in the U.S. Senate to remove this president from office.

End-result: President Trump wins vindication in the U.S. Senate - with voter-backlash potentially damaging the House Democrats (and their party's presidential candidate) in November of 2020. A failed impeachment effort will hurt Democrat candidates nationwide!

The Democrats lack support within the U.S. military and the American heartland, but they DO have the support of Planned Parenthood, those advocating for socialist economic changes in America, advocates of Islamic Sharia Law, atheists, and those transgendered athletes wishing to compete in women's athletics. The left has LOST any support it once had within blue-collar America, they're also losing support among the Jewish & black communities, but are hoping to make-up for that by giving the vote to illegals.

And just what do you think "American values" are?

Not what you do. But that's OK. Neither you nor I nor Secretive Victoria are the decider as to what 300 million people think and believe.

 

[BotanyBoy]

Probably not, that's why I asked.

And it is OK, never said it wasn't.

I love it when people disagree with me and can actually defend their claims.

Neither you nor I nor Secretive Victoria are the decider as to what 300 million people think and believe.

It's not a subjective question about 300 million peoples feelings and thoughts.
