>>726725254
It's not about inability to accept the loss, it's about who the orange fruitcake is and what the orangutan represents. If you can't even see this point, then your own argument is null.
I didn't vote for the 70-year-old manchild, but I still accept the results as they are. He's POTUS, so let him do what he's gonna do. If he crashes the nation with fear-mongering and toxic policies, then let him. Let him screw up and then move on, because those of us that have seen the shitstorm that is Trump a longtime coming, are only going to laugh in the faces of the fact-deniers with an "I told you so" expression.

Putin is trying to win over France after his work in the US

It seems like half of the population wants to live in a traditional way, free of queers, niggers & big government.

the other half despises inbreed, cum-skinned rednecks & traditional values and wishes for more government control & equality.

how will this not divide the country? the schism is already there and it's growing for each day, fuels by the hatred of both sides

This is why he won - leftists cannot see their own immaturity and hypocrisy.
Trump was a poor, poor choice out of a basket of horrible choices for this election.
I can only hope that someone bucks their party, and starts don't right by the American public rather than playing politics and towing the party lines.
I will not accept or endorse someone like Sanders who is openly a socialist, it needs to be someone who puts America and especially her citizenry first ,regardless of what political colors they wear, over the machine that is the US government. They must be committed to reducing big federal government, and start allowing states more autonomy.
They should care more about their own citizenry than foreign aid - because until we eliminate poverty, homelessness, obesity, and lack of facilities and assistance for mental illness in our own country, we shouldn't be trying to prop up any other country or peoples.

Scene of Republicans rioting in the streets after Obama won in 2008:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVXuZBHW9wE

What if, I mean this is just a theory I only have mountains of evidence, that both Republicans and Democrats are completely full of shit.

Democrats are lying about racism, sexism, identity politics, feminism, communism, socialism, routinely manufacture facts, and deny science. They are globalist shitstains completely bought and sold by corporations.

Republicans are a bunch of useless anti-fact, military industrial complex shills, warmongering, conspiracy theorist, anti-science, anti-logic, trickle-down-economic fuckwads that are completely bought and sold by corporations.

here's the daily reminder you apparently needed to remember republicans blocked Obama's supreme court nominee for literally no reason

get over it baby. your guy LOST THE VOTE! sucks to be a loser right I hear that one a lot

>>726733905
What if they're 2 sides of the same coin and all this anti-trump nonsense is fueled by the entrenched power structure? What if they want to stop this first outsider so another never reaches the presidency?

Some of that is clearly true. Just look at the money. Everything was stacked against Trump.

Trump has a very casual relationship with facts and reality though, so he's not really much better than either side. Still probably better than a real republican or Hillary.

Here you go anon

>>726734364
I guess I expected too much for democrats to know that happened, so I'll give you context. This was in 1992 under President George H Bush:

Were there a vacancy, Biden argued, Bush should “not name a nominee until after the November election is completed,” and if he did, “the Senate Judiciary Committee should seriously consider not scheduling confirmation hearings on the nomination until after the political campaign season is over.”
“Senate consideration of a nominee under these circumstances is not fair to the president, to the nominee, or to the Senate itself,” he continued. “Where the nation should be treated to a consideration of constitutional philosophy, all it will get in such circumstances is partisan bickering and political posturing from both parties and from both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.”

>>726734726
topkek. that sjw stuff is nuttier than squirrel shit

>>726734756
Don't forget that in 2007, Senator Chuck Schumer said he would block ANY Supreme Court nominee by George Bush. Of course, in 2016, he said the exact opposite, but then, a democrat was president.

>>726734756
That was very close to the election. The Republicans' refused to do their jobs for an unprecedented amount of time. Maybe we should settle this with a constitutional amendment stating that presidents may only select justices to replace those who died or retired during the previous term. If the Supreme Court has more than 3 vacancies, they can instead be filled by a vote of people in the next midterm.

That was demonstrated to be empty rhetoric. A nominee was confirmed before the next presidential term that time. Republicans actually refused to do their jobs, and now they can only come up with a raving lunatic who makes such bad decisions that the current court is ruling against them unanimously.

>>726736715
You might want to read the Constitution... specifically the parts dealing with advice and consent. The senate have the right to give or deny consent to any presidential appointment. They represent the people who elected them, not the president. Both sides block SC appointments when the other guy is president. How did you not know this?

Voting is just another tool used by authoritarians to cloak and justify their power as they can no longer rely on divine right since we burst that bubble, so they'll base their "right" to power on ad populum fallacies instead. Letting us vote is nothing but an empty gesture to give us the semblance of control when really the only options are the ones approved by the state and media. When you vote you are only voting for blood sucking politicians who have already been pre-chosen for you. It's insane and defeatist to keep doing the same thing, voting over and over just because everyone else does, and expecting different results. It is no measure of good health to conform to an ill society. Democracy is tyranny by majority. This is why no ONE single politician, president, king, leader, or even group of people could ever represent any and all people in the entire world fairly, honestly, and without bias. We need a new system that functions on the philosophy that the greatest expression of freedom is doing whatever you want so long as it does not harm or effect anyone else. By voting you are voting yes for the system, you are going out of your way to scribble a check on a piece of paper that says "I have faith in this system". By continuously choosing the lesser of two evils, picking option piss over option shit, you are feeding the oppressive troll that is this system. If voting could truly change the system it would be illegal.

Imagine a world where everything is there for everyone with no money involved? Nobody has anything more than anyone else. Just go to work and do your job, go home all your needs are met. Everyone needs a home or a repair or a new roof ect....everyone needs a doctor visit, that doctor needs some work done in his house. Just imagine all the services needed and rendered in every aspect of our society. Minus anything having to do with a monetary system. We as a species would be able to do anything without any restrictions. There's no greed or power to be had, just common goals. Survive and expand. We'd have a moon base by now, mining asteroids, visiting Mars and such, cause there's no debate or funds needed that exists. This is the only way our species will survive anything. This old tradition construct of leaders and debt is just barbaric to the point that it will only self destruct or be destroyed eventually. It's a hard concept to grasp and took me 30 years to think it through but it's the only way it will be eventually.

You dont get to vote concrning the actions of corporations - unless you are a major shareholder or board member. And that only if it is publicly traded. Closely held private corps do whatever they want with near impunity.

At least with properly elected govt you have (in theory) a mechanism in place whereby the people's interests may be heard. Govt is in fact your only defense against Big Business run amok. Which is exactly why the big shots want you to hate govt. Its good for their bottom line.

Uh, FISA stands for Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Such orders are necessary for surveillance involving "US persons," which is widely defined to include foreign nationals in the US or working for a US institution or business, or involving US citizens.

If court authorizations were not necessary for "Foreign Surveillance," then there would not be a "Foreign Surveillance" court that exists specifically to issue such authorizations, would there?

I'm seriously considering it. Becoming "working poor."
I literally made $200 over what was the break for affordable healthcare for me, but I don't make enough to actually be able to afford healthcare.
Company I work for shitcanned 23 employees to get under the mandatory healthcare for companies over 50 back when this started. I was one of the "lucky"'ones.
But because they sacked so many, they lost contracts for jobs, and now we are down to 12 employees that are full time, and 6 part time.
I'm thinking of taking a pay cut and asking for a part time position because they can't afford to give me a raise (they claim), and I cannot make enough to live off of but likewise, make too much for any living or healthcare assistance.

This is why we need universal coverage. Healthcare is vital service. We can't just let the poor die, but having income requirements/limits for a healthcare program makes it impossible for the chronically ill to get necessary care while trying to transition into the workforce.

>>726741866

> 78% of Americans don't pay any tax at all.

Dubious claim - and sure they do. Not all tax is income tax. Poor ppl pay a disproportionate amount of their meager income in the form of sales taxes and property taxes (yes, Virginia, renters pay property tax) ... as well as every kind of absurd vampiric fee the rentier class can dream up to squeeze every drop of blood from the less well off. At the end of the day the wealthy pay less by far as a percentage of income than anyone else - and they have the influence to keep it that way. Don't expect me to shed a tear for them.

Not steep enough, evidently.

The British NHS costs more than $2200 per person in Britain, some 60 million. That would cost more than $700 billion *a year* for equivalent "service" (that routinely and infamously lets its patients die of neglect) in the US, with its population 320 million.

>>726742664
>This is why we need universal coverage

Universal coverage works in places that frivolous and medical law suits are outlawed.

A huge portion of the costs of healthcare and pharma comes from lawsuits to clean them out when something goes wrong.

this shows monetary thinking. Not caring for people thinking - which doctors should do. If the only reason you become a doctor is for the cash, you are likely to be a bad doctor. also, if you would be happy sweeping floors, not bored, not need a more interesting, and challenging life, fine - but if not you might well want to be a doctor, to care for people, to pursue knowledge, to experience something that a mere floor sweeper never will.

it isn't all about the money.

>Europeans took their land, food sources and way of life

After four centuries of being kidnapped, murdered, raped, cannibalized, and scalped, they earned it.

The late 20th century fetish for romanticizing Indians is asinine. They were almost all bloodthirsty barbarians. Look into the Iroquois confederation, the Sioux, the Comanches, the Apaches; check out the Aztecs, who were so widely hated that their enslaved subjects allied with the invading Spaniards specifically to destroy them.

The same kind of 'finally, the whites will team up and help us eliminate these monsters' occurred with the Comanches and Aztecs.

No white woman was ever kidnapped by the Comanches who *wasn't* gang raped and tortured. You know what their favorite torture was? Scalping while alive, heating a tomahawk in a fire, and then applying it to the bare skull.

Their "way of life" was savage barbarism.

Your comparison is invalid.

Donnie Shortfingers could pay 90% taxes (or more) and it would not substantively impact his lifestyle. In fact - except for numbers on a spreadsheet, it would likely not affect him in the slightest.

For the working poor any taxation at all is a burden that affects their lives negatively. It can literally force the choice between food or medicine.

This is an important distinction - and one which often escapes the attention of the defenders of the wealthy..

America is not a democracy
It's a constitutional republic.
>Also sage

>>726743697
>Their "way of life" was savage barbarism.

The rest of history and just how shitty the natives could be doesn't become the central focus of our history, because there was enough native cooperation and peacefulness that we don't focus on the negatives.

>? What if they want to stop this first outsider so another never reaches the presidency?

except Trump is pure Republican. Indeed purer than many republicans had ever dreamed they could be and get away with it. he is openly pouring money into his pockets and those of his billionaire friends. he sold seats in cabinet to the highest bidder (he made money out of the campaign, including millions charged to the Secret Service for protecting him while he stayed in his hotels and used his plane and got the campaign donors to pay him full whack for using it)

You know why he admires Putin - because Putin is an open kleptocrat. And Trump is the same. His tax regime ideas are republican wet dream - tax cut for the rich, screw the poor, and blow the budget - the Democrats can sort out the deficit when they get in next time, but they will never take back the billions that Trump is going to give his cronies in construction, private education and medicine and the billions they will make from lax environmental regulation and the oil and coal bubble he is running up.

>>726743925
>there was enough native cooperation and peacefulness that we don't focus on the negatives.

What peacefulness and cooperation? The Indian Wars were damned near continuous from the 17th century to the 20th, from Quebec to Louisiana to Arizona. Being murdered by Indians was still a realistic (though diminished) threat in north rural Texas in the early 20th century. The last war didn't end until *1924.*

You're right the 'narrative' changed, but that's because of concerted effort by revisionist historians, not because Indians really were peaceful, pipe smoking, spiritualist proto-hippies.

Oh I understand it all to well, friend. And it is exactly why we should tax the shit out of them.

Accumulated wealth affords them leverage to accumulate more wealth in ways the average man cannot even begin to dream about. For these ultra wealthy, taxes are not a burden. They are just a game. They are just numbers on a page. Even wealth accumulation is just a game to them - it has nothing at all to do with their survival.

Beyond a certain point allowing people to accumulate wealth only helps to afford them the opportunity to subvert democracy - which is what has happened. Which is why heavy taxation is necessary to keep things running smoothly and fairly.

Venezuela is failing because they based their socialist spending on oil revenue, not on taxes. Oil price is down, system collapses, no shit. Chavez was the Oprah Winfrey of state oil revenue and did not set up a stable system.

>Oh I understand it all to well, friend.

No. You don't.

>accumulated wealth
Any accumulated cash was taxed. If property was obtained at price X and appreciated to price Y but not sold, it is not taxed. When it is sold, it is taxed.

Your entire view is summarized on the old, stupid canard: "Eat the rich." There's nothing else there. Dark implications of conspiracy and accusations of greed and deceit. And why? Because they own $1 more than YOU think they should have.

You want to seize wealth you didn't earn when it crosses an arbitrary level. That's not only greed, and not only theft, but powerlust.

no. The Democrats (a few) made a few noises, but did their jobs - confirmed appointments because the nominees were good enough for the posts. republicans decided over a year before Obama was due to leave office that they jsut wouldn't do the job, adn would not look at any nominee. Obama could have offered to make Ryan a SC judge, or BUSH (any BUSH) or put trump onthe bench and they would not look at it. He could have offered hitler and they wouldn't do it. On principle. The principle being that no democrat should be allowed to nominate .

They didn't even have nations. Most didn't even have *writing,* the wheel, metallurgy, or any of the rest of those tier 1 technologies from Civ.

They also had small, dispersed populations outside central America. Fewer than 10 million in 1492. Claiming ownership of all North America? That's ridiculous.

I don't think this is about candidates anymore. People don't want to be ruled by an orange manbaby who can't even manage a casino without failing miserably.

Have you noticed how he goes apeshit every time things don't go they way he wants? No qualified leader of the free world should throw tweet rants about celebrities or companies when he has better things to do, like running country, and I find disturbing how Trump supporters ignore this.

>>726745856
lol this is the same bullshit analysis they trotted out during the primary

"First, it assumes that state and local governments will dump all of their health care obligations onto the federal government at a cost of $4.1 trillion over the next decade. That is categorically false. Bernie’s plan requires state and local governments to maintain their current levels of health care spending – a maintenance of effort that has been upheld by the courts.

Secondly, this study significantly underestimates the savings in administration, paperwork, and prescription drug prices that every major country on earth has successfully achieved by adopting a universal health care program.

The Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) has estimated that we could save nearly $500 billion annually on paperwork and administration alone – enough savings not only to provide universal coverage to the uninsured, but also to eliminate deductibles, co-payments, and co-insurance for everyone in America. Hospitals currently spend over 25 percent on administrative costs in this country, but just 12.4 percent in Canada.

Third, the authors of this report estimate that the cost of our plan would be about $8 trillion more than even the highest cost estimates to date — estimates that have already been debunked by the experts at Physicians for a National Health Program."

>>726745722
I did think about it. Questions, though - are you going to be the one in charge of taxation? Or someone you trust? Also, how much is too much? And by "taxing the shit out of them," where will the money go and what will they do with it? Put money back into the system? Government programs? How has the system's track record been so far?

Think about it.

>The principle being that no democrat should be allowed to nominate .

The principle being that a lame duck president who lost Congress shouldn't make lifetime judicial appointments.

A practice which dates to the 60s, when Johnson tried to appoint his personal buddy Abe Fortas to the Supreme Court on his way out the door.

But yeah, it's just Republicans being mean now. Pfft.

No conspiring with a foreign power is treason - Trump did that. he has also committed fraud, libel, slander, perjury bribery, misuse of charitable funds, misuse of public funds, fraudulent acquisition of public funds, tax evasion, fraudulent declaration of income for tax avoidance, theft and according to at least one ex wife, rape.

On the issue of tolerance: People are more important than views. I will unconditionally tolerate your person. If tolerating your views would mean suffering that someone else's person should not be tolerated, then, no, I will not tolerate your views. But I will nonetheless tolerate your person.

I don't think the protesters are killing democracy.

I think a guy who didn't actually get the most votes winning the election is killing democracy.

I didn't vote for Trump, yet 100% of my state power (electoral votes) went to him. they didn't cut a slice out of it to represent how I voted.
It essentially makes my vote worthless, wasted. thousands of people in my state didn't vote for trump and they didn't get any representation.

This type of malarky bullshit is disenfranchising the American people. this is why people hate the government and people like Burnout Sandels get put on a pedestal and praised by young people.

I'm not wasting my time protesting. But I have no respect for this type of system at all. Ironically I'll probably benefit more from the Trump election than poor unemployed trump supporters, If I have to pay even 2% less in taxes, that would be a huge improvement in my life. But I still don't like him. I care about freedom, and I care about my fellow countrymen, America is a wonderful country, and I hate to see it get ruined.

>>726746269

lol - 'earn'

These rich people don't 'earn' their wealth - that shows how little you actually understand what is going on.

Why do you think investment income is called 'unearned income' for the purposes of taxation? (And is taxed at a substantially reduced rate to boot)

Rich don't earn - they make arrangements for the productivity of the masses to flow their way.

They are basically modern day plantation owners. Except you don't get to see the plantation anymore.

Your thinking is all ass-backward, friend.

Perhaps one day the light will shine for you as it did me. I too used to argue your points. It is a seductive logical fallacy that unbridling the rich and powerful will benefit all men. Or even most men.

Us health care cost over twice what it does in the UK, per capita. And the UK covers 100% of population, while the US leaves out a substantial number of people . so you already pay twice as much, and do not cover everyone, and get a worse service on average - UK NHS is number 1 int he world in a recent survey by the (american) Commonwealth foundation.

you are simply wrong. It is affordable (more than the current insurance and lawyer and admin top heavy US system) and better.

Ok, lunatic.

>Why do you think investment income is called 'unearned income' for the purposes of taxation? (And is taxed at a substantially reduced rate to boot)

This is a lie. 'Unearned income' is taxed according to its individual characterization, which can be as normal income (like interest) or capital gains, which is divided into short term and long term.

You're completely fucking wrong. And you REFUSE to learn otherwise. You're fundamentally unserious, and undeserving of serious consideration.

Used to be.

That changed in the 1960s and the racists all fled to the GOP who welcomed them with open arms (Wiki: Southern Strategy)

not saying that. Just saying that trump is an expert only at bullshitting adn grabbing tax handouts. If I had been given a billion by the state of New York adn another half billion by my dad in the 70's, I would be richer than Trump. And I would not bilk my suppliers and run casinos into the ground to run up paper losses that I would pass off to my investors and sell tot he banks, to declare a tax right off without declaring the income, and pocketing a billion on the way. Because although he thinks that makes him "smart" i think it makes him a fucking thief.
