[W:720, 995]Trump: Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’

His unfitness for office in the first place much less getting a second term to do who knows how much more damage to the country not to mention his own massive contribution to the coarsening of the political dialogue has earned him every bit of the blowback he's gotten.

You explain the success of liberalism in Seattle, Portland, SF, LA, Minneapolis, Chicago, Kenosha, NYC and tell us why we should ever vote for a liberal? The only damage he really has done is to the liberal ideology which is a fraud anyway
 
Does it really seem out of character for trump to say something like that? It sounds exactly like something he would say.

Actually....yes it sounds very out of character for Trump to say such a thing since he has been a staunch supporter of the military.

And since this story seems to be cooked up and authored by anonymous sources at a liberal rag.... its easy to dismiss it as fictional Bull****!
 
you post a lot of false information none of which is supported by official data, your hatred of Trump has blinded you to reality, post data to support your claims, bea.gov, bls.gov, and treasury.gov

You can deny reality but never change it, Trump 6.6 million NEW taxpayers created in 3 years pre pandemic, 900 billion dollars per year GDP growth without that massive Obama stimulus program for shovel ready jobs that failed and generated only 500 billion dollars per year GDP dollar growth, 10,000 point stock market gain, historic low minority unemployment, Results matter except to people living in a bubblee

Liberalism is a fraud and liberal results in Seattle, Portland, LA, SF, Minneapolis, Chicago, NY, Kenosha and liberal states like California and NY cannot but justified thus are ignored

It's always entertaining to read a trumper declare something false without any proof and then proceed to list a bunch of bull**** economic claims. At least you did seem to recognize (unwittingly, of course) how all of those exaggerated economic and fiscal gains vanished over night due to Trump's complete and ongoing failure to address the pandemic.
 
I think you'll be surprised of what is going to happen.

No, won't be surprised at all as it is going to be a bigger landslide for Trump than the left can handle

Just another anti Trump thread from someone like you who cannot debate the issues. Trump bothers a lot of people? SO fricken what, the alternative is Biden/Harris and that isn't going to fly. You have yet to offer a valid reason to vote for Biden and hope that anti Trump feelings will drive people to the polls, that isn't going to happen

We've plowed this field before. I don't debate issues with you because you have no intellectual courage or honesty. You won't concede anything that doesn't support your position, no matter how well documented it may be. If challenged in a way you can't honestly refute, you dodge, twist, and shift the grounds of the argument and then claim you aren't.

I haven't offered "a valid reason to vote for Biden?" That's because your idea of "valid" rests entirely upon a bizarre world of Fox News "facts" and right-wing fantasies.

I've lived in Chicago, NYC, and San Fran and loved every minute of living in those places.

That "liberal rag" has nailed Trump's lying, chicken**** ass many times. They've got the goods on him and even you know it. Thus the desperate need to ignore all of Dirtbag's past comments showing us that's exactly how he sees the military. That makes all his efforts to gush at the military even more despicable.

You are so right. We should follow the examples of convervative states like Mississippi and Louisiana. They seem to excel in education, health care, and quality of life, right? What do you think they are doing right?
 
Lets test that right now on you


You really dug deep to come up with that and just to lie about what his comment meant. This tells us that even you realize that your Dirtbag said those things about soldiers dying and will do anything to deflect away from this subject.
 
Anonymous sources = fake news. If anyone believes this they are stupid.

Ahhh, I see. But anyone who thinks the huckster who told them they weren't going to believe what his top people were finding on Obama's birth certificate for six years is telling them the real news is really smart!:lamo

The reality is the MAJORITY of Americans don't want him as their President and thats not gonna change. He's a fraud in the eyes of most of us and if the 2018 midterms (whos polls were dead on) are any indicator, then you're in for a really big surprise.
 
we have a lazy, corrupt and criminal President who is void of morals and virtues.



why would anyone be surprised by any vile thing he says or does?

Great cities. Spent a week in downtown Philadelphia a few years ago--wonderful time. Like Seattle, it has lots of people living downtown or nearby, which means at night there are crowds of people going to theaters and restaurants and such. Very safe.

So why this big push to paint our cities as Trumpian hellscapes? Maybe because the people who live and work in rural America can see perfectly well that cities are booming while their own communities are barely treading water. But nobody likes to think that their community is literally the dregs of the nation. There must be something that’s better about living where they live. Trump says maybe folks in big cities make more money than you, but these cities are awash in crime and violence. They aren't, but it plays well to the under-informed and easily persuaded.

It is amazing how those conservative states haven't had the rioting that liberal states have however, New Orleans and La, have a Democratic Mayor and Governor. You cannot seem to respond to official results buying rhetoric instead of reality
 
If trump said this would you vote for him?

lol, if they herad him say it they would deny it and vote for him

these are brainwashed people, these are not object normal Americans

your problem is the alternative which you cannot defend, tell us what Trump has done that has generated your hatred? What will Biden do to make your life better that Trump hasn't done, 10000 point gain in the stock market benefited 58+ million 401k holders, 6.6 million new jobs were created from January 2017 to February 2020, Minority unemployment was historic low but you keep buying and trying to sell the gloom and doom

I've actually been to every single City you mentioned (minus Kenosha), and struggle to find anything negative to say about any of them. I've also lived in 3 of them, and temporarily stayed in Minneapolis for a period of 3 months while working on a project. I enjoyed my time in all of them. Vibrant, diverse, lots going on, great atmospheres.

I was once mugged in rural Kentucky by some guy with a Confederate Flag hat on during a road trip. Guess those Conservative areas are just poverty stricken hell holes.

ROFLMAO, nice cherry picked data that doesn't resonate with reality, 6.6 million jobs created from January 2017 to February 2020 and if you want to check on quality of jobs let this one sink in

Any idea what a part time job for economic reason is?

I'm thinking Trump has contempt for the military because he was afraid to go. So in his sick mind, he has to destroy the institution he fears.

As a young man born of privilege and in seemingly perfect health--six feet two inches with a muscular build and a flawless medical record--He played several sports, including football. Then, in 1968 at age 22, he obtained a diagnosis of bone spurs in his heels that exempted him from military service just as the United States was drafting men his age to fulfill massive troop deployments to Vietnam.

The result? In the Pentagon's "Tank", he told the assembled brass “I wouldn’t go to war with you people. You’re a bunch of dopes and babies.”

There was silence in the Tank. Several military officers in the room were grateful to the secretary of state for defending them when no one else would. The meeting soon ended and Trump walked out, saying goodbye to a group of servicemen lining the corridor as he made his way to his motorcade waiting outside. Mattis, Tillerson, and Cohn were deflated. Standing in the hall with a small cluster of people he trusted, Tillerson finally let down his guard.
“He’s a f---ing moron,” the secretary of state said of the president.

Of course you have nothing negative to say, liberalism is an ideology that brainwashes a lot of people with rhetoric and not results, maybe this will resonate and cause your memory to return
