so /co/, whats the laziest/cringiest/shittiest trump parody you've

I wonder what portion of posters on this website came here just last year from the Trump subreddit or whatever. There was a big spike in traffic with the election, same as with "the fappening" and "gamergate" right? So much cancer.

What's the parody?

>>94397482
I fucking sick and tired of trump.

Heh. Nice try.

>>94398435

Yeah, he said he did, to distract people. He didn't actually talk to any military people, set out a policy, or anything. So the military is basically ignoring it on the grounds of "it's incredibly stupid, so we're not doing shit unless we get an official order."

So, no, he hasn't really done shit. Tried to order a muslim ban, several times, court struck it down for being obviously unconstitutional. Tried to repeal obamacare, several times, too incompetent to do it. Hasn't filled his cabinet posts. Gets flustered and cranky talking to other world leaders. In way over his head and getting nothing done.

>>94398549
>Tried to order a muslim ban, several times, court struck it down for being obviously unconstitutional.
SCOTUS has already issued an overturn of the lower courts' blocking of the ban, pending their official ruling in October.

Given that the president's authority to bar specific groups from immigrating is clearly outlined in the US legal code, given that it has been upheld in multiple previous cases, and given the political balance of the SCOTUS, there is a nearly 100% chance the SCOTUS will uphold Trump's ban

This is a genuine concern of mine, which is why I'm very worried about this Russia scandal.

Coal companies have, and will always have that power. Now it just takes less taxpayer money to allow it in the first place.

Obama was killing 200 innocents a year with drones. And that 8 year old "American" was taken out of the country by her family of terrorists before she was even old enough to even remember.

>>94398610

Yeah, that's something like version 6 of the ban. Had to whittle it down from what he claimed he would do to something that would pass the courts, but not really do anything except tell Muslims that America is their enemy.

Oh, and the phone records that came out today are hilarious. He was talking with the Mexican president, and it was basically:

>"You gotta stop saying you're not gonna pay for the wall, it's really hurting me politically!"
>"We're not gonna pay for it, though. I mean, obviously."
>"Yeah, obviously, but what can I give you to stop saying that in front of cameras?"

>>94398671
I dunno, Pence's involvement is kind of murky as well. The whole Flynn debacle raised concerns about how much Pence actually knows compared to how much he's claimed to know. If Trump goes down because of the Russia stuff I don't think Pence is coming out of it unscathed.

No...

The increase is 5.7 mil. That's an increase of 25%.

100% increase means that it would have to be double 22 million. Maybe you're thinking that there's a 27.7 difference, which would mean that total number would be 49.7 million and 125% increase, but... it's not.

It's just weird that you don't know this. And it doesn't seem that significant an increase.

Also to be fair, I remember a fairly big increase before that coming from Tumblr, especially to /co/ (Homestuck threads were a big magnet). I guess it's just balancing out.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Recovery_and_Reinvestment_Act_of_2009
under "Developments under the Act and estimates of the Act's results"

I updated it with the Bureau of Labor statistics for unemployment for a couple of years after the act was passed.

I dunno about laziest but most effective would be Steve Gerber's Foolkiller miniseries from 1990. It was published long before anything presidential was on the menu but it's completely savage in how it handles the Trump proxy. Political writing was done a lot better in comics a few decades ago.

>>94398748
That's the thing, though. I'm willing to believe that even if people within his campaign and administration have or had direct communication with Russia, Trump himself may not have. But the problem is that Trump's attempts to make this go away have only made things worse, and if he goes down it will likely be due to his obstruction attempts rather than any direct link between him and Russia.

Not an argument. Law enforcement is about the prevention and punishment of criminal activity. The EPA did neither of those things, it's basically a way to tax corporations and citizens while giving corporations the run around. All while knowing they were going to let the corporations get away with everything they wanted in the end anyway. It's literally bribery.

>Obama was also pretty shit when it came to civilian casualties, doesn't make Trump right for doing it.

What's funny is that even he isn't aware that he hasn't done them half the time. Throughout the entire Obamacare repeal saga he didn't seem to understand how a bill becomes a law so he kept treating any successful motion as a final victory.

Also half his executive orders can't even be carried out for a variety of reasons, such as not having any appointees in departments that are tasked with implementing them.

Seeing as most of these are not arguments, I'll just address the few statements that are.
>Law enforcement is about the prevention and punishment of criminal activity. The EPA did neither of those things
If the EPA wasn't doing it's job the solution isn't to handicap it, but to actually make it do its job.
>it's basically a way to tax corporations and citizens while giving corporations the run around. All while knowing they were going to let the corporations get away with everything they wanted in the end anyway. It's literally bribery.
But that's not true. It imposed regulations that prevented companies from doing certain things that harmed the environment. It's the reason the hole in our ozone layer isn't rabidly expanding like it was before the EPA was deputized to hand the situation. It's the reason most tap water doesn't look like Flint, Michigans water. It's the reason smog has been reduced so much in Los Angeles.

>Casualties of war will always be a thing. A tragic thing, but necessary.

As it is, it's amazing how much was crammed into those ten days. I can't decide which is my favorite part, Mooch successfully canning Priebus to stop leaks (only for leaks to keep happening thus Priebus got fucked for no reason), or his wife filing for divorce because he was so obsessed with getting this dream job that he was then almost immediately fired from.

>>94399209
So Trump is only fullfilling his bad promises?

Trump also promised to be the "most pro LGBT president ever" and he then banned Transgendered people from the military

Trump promised to have healthcare for everybody and then he just tried to destroy obamacare with a bill that reduces the number of insured people

Trump promised he will be "the most pro environment president ever!" and he did not stop removing environmental protection regulation and he also got out of the paris agreement

>>94399131
I'm simply objecting to the idea that a travel ban covering only 10% of the people it was originally intended to cover is "virtually identical" to the original executive order. I would imagine most people would have been fine if this was the original order, since most people took issue with family, employees, students, and resident aliens being stranded in airports, not necessarily people from certain countries being barred access if they have no American ties.

>>94399172
>100% blocked like five different times.

By literal lying, treasonous, politics playing lawyers from state courts. All they managed to do was throw a tantrum and delay everything. Trump and the SCOTUS comprimized with the corporations who rely on buisness in thosr places to function. The state courts never even had any leverage, and I think its funny you think they did.

>>94399191

>>94399209
>but that's the GOP's fault, not Trump's
This is mainly their fault, but some of the hard no's from the GOP only went that way after Trump went after them for waffling. A few potential maybe votes turned into definite nos out of sheer spite for his bizarre strongarm tactics, like running attack ads against them.

>realize that trump is sort of right about fake news

The point is, the media has the power to report whatever they want on politics. If you want to be better informed, actually listen to the source of what they're talking about. Speeches, conferences, read government documents, etc.
If you can't form an opinion without the news telling you what one you should have, you're an idiot.

Oh and don't tell me that they're going to start building with the 1.6 billion they've set aside to repair and reinforce the existing barriers. Trump's promised wall would cost upwards of 20 billion.

>but that's the GOP's fault

Fret not, anon, for even if he may no longer be on Trump's speed dial, the Mooch will never abandon your heart.

When male college students with bronzer, hair gel and body glitter post a duck lip selfie on Facebook, the Mooch is there. When overweight middle aged men sitting on a stoop in sweatpants, a wife beater, gold chains and sunglasses makes sexual comments to a passing 15-year-old, the Mooch is there. When you complain about cold breadsticks at Olive Garden and the surly waitress brings you a basket of cold AND stale breadsticks, the Mooch will always be there.

Paris agreement was a fucking pointless money hole for the US where billions of dollars would've been siphoned out of our economy to support third world shitholes who don't even have to comply with the accords anyway, it was an incredibly smart decision. Trannies in the military is a fucking disastrously stupid idea and the ban is perfectly reasonable. Obamacare is imploding specifically because it's required to insure high cost people. You simply cannot insure everyone and not expect a premium explosion like that. Covering everyone is a stupid goal because unless the government just completely takes over and it goes single payer it's just not gonna happen. Single payer btw would completely destroy the economy in a single generation so don't hedge your bets on that either.

>see that major revelations about russia all come from "anonymous sources"
There was a WaPo headline a couple weeks ago, something to the effect of - "TRUMP ORDERED INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS TO SHUT DOWN RUSSIA PROVE"

A paragraph into the actual body of the story and it turned out to be "an anonymous source told us that his associates told him that someone familiar with a top intelligence official's thinking believes that Trump asked him to intervene in the Russia probe"

That's like... quadruple hearsay.

>If the EPA wasn't doing it's job the solution isn't to handicap it, but to actually make it do its job.

It's job is to take monetary compensation from companies. It was doing it's job to well.

>It imposed regulations that prevented companies from doing certain things that harmed the environment.

Yet anyone could bypass those regulations anytime they were willing to play the game. Look at the oil pipelines everyine threw a fit about. They still got built and still poluted the water. The EPA being environmentally friendly is a front.

>It's the reason the hole in our ozone layer isn't rabidly expanding like it was before the EPA was deputized to hand the situation. It's the reason most tap water doesn't look like Flint, Michigans water. It's the reason smog has been reduced so much in Los Angeles.

The EPA had nothing to do with any of that. The market handled that itself after everyone went through their Green hysteria and companies quickly found it profitable to change. If there wasn't profit and public favor involved, they never would have changed.

>Nothing justifies recklessly killing an 8 year old girl.
Except war. War justifies it. It's shitty, but if your policy was to avoid civilian casualties at all costs, you'd start seeing terrorists literally strapping children to their chests. Which, guess what, is the figurative reason why that 8 year old was there in the first place.

Sooner or later, the US will be forced to move to green energy and stop using oil. do you know why?

Do you? The accords are non-binding. There's no schedule, no environmental inspections, no penalties for non-compliance. The US was a huge chunk of the aide that was to be distributed to other countries to the tune of about 100 billion dollars a year. That's why everyone was pissed we pulled out. The biggest economy to pull money from is now gone.

China is actually trying to address its carbon emissions as a matter of necessity for the health of its citizens and is rapidly positioning itself to be the number 1 producer of environmentally sustainable energy in the near future. This will secure its dominance in a global marketplace as solar, wind and nuclear power become the primary components of the world's energy portfolio.

The US currently has the lead on developing and manufacturing green tech, but it's rapidly losing that lead as it pursues non renewables like coal and oil sands at the expense of green research and investment.

Nixon was an amazing President and an incredibly skilled politician. The EPA is one of his worst mistakes, if you want an achievement of his to really gloat about, opening up trade with China is one. The problem with Nixon is that while he was a masterful politician, he was an incredibly petty, suspicious, shitty person.

Solar and wind power systems today integrate capacitor banks to smooth energy supply. Storage is an issue, but it will continue to be less of one as these technologies improve. Already there are blueprints for graphene hypercapacitors that can store tenfold the wattage as contemporary designs.

Coal is expensive and inefficient. It's also not a moral reason why they are turning away from that. China is trying to achieve energy independance, which is one of their big steps they have to take in case they have to go to war with the rest of the world.

>Illegal immigration is already costing us tens of billions a year

Actually, no.

http://econofact.org/do-immigrants-cost-native-born-taxpayers-money

Immigrants (legal or illegal) actually nets the government between $173 and $259 thousand dollars per person.

They also don't cause crime.

https://www.cato.org/blog/there-no-evidence-illegal-immigrant-crime-wave-why-elusive-crime-wave-data-shows-frightening

And they also don't lower wages or take American jobs, though I unfortunately can't find the study for that found that. I know it has something do with examining jobs taken by illegal immigrants in North Carolina. Regardless, the reasoning for the wall (and I believe those four things - wages, jobs, costing government money, and crime are the four main reasons) is completely detached from reality. There is absolutely no reason to construct this wall, and that is why no one but Trump and his most fervent allies are supporting it.

It's a change in time. In the first picture the spot between Trump and the washington monument is empty because it was taken hours earlier before the crowd was all there, in the second picture it's packed because the it was taken during the speech. Repeating "muh perspective muh perspective" over and over isn't changing reality, you can clearly see the same spot unless you just have shitty vision.

It's funny. People don't realize why the Green movement got so big so quickly. America's managed to enforce peace through the petrodollar for years, since any sign of aggression meant being cut off from their main energy source. Now countries are scrambling to get out from the American heel, and people think it's for some saving the Earth crap. It's funny.

They're brokering a deal with the Saudis to buy their oil with yuan. This will simultaneously give them oil while striking a most likely lethal blow to the US dollar.

I don't know why but recently I've been dreaming about myself splicing images and videos of Donald Trump together with various parts of Pink Floyd's The Wall. Mainly the song Mother. Around the 3 minute mark when it gets to that guitar riff whatever, it changes to a bald eagle flying, then an American flag waving, then crying children, and finally back to Donald Trump. I don't know why but this idea has been haunting my dreams for weeks. Literal fucking weeks. It is the only goddamn dream I can remember having anymore.

>We don't have a way to make a decentralized government work.

The American system under the constitution is extremely decentralized and worked very well until we began abandoning it by giving the federal government power it's not legally allowed to have. Easily half of the federal government doesn't have the legal right to exist. The EPA, DEA, DHS, DOE, CIA, IRS, FDA, are breaking the law by existing. Only the states have the power to have agencies like that.

At least with majorities in both houses and the Presidency the Republican Party finally repealed job-killing tax-hiking Obamacare.

So sick of these threads.

Coal isn't going to lower your power bill. Coal has been declining in the US for decades, since long before Obama. Trump trying to prop up the coal industry will only benefit people in the coal industry, everyone else will still pay the same for energy because the market has already moved on to something better, namely cheap natural gas.
