This, from the guy who just attacked democrats for everything Trump did while prez.I'm attacking the party in power
He's been the most powerful and influential figure in the GOP for the last 8 years straight, yes or no?Now.
Not a sworn in politician.
I don't consider anyone not sworn in a politician.
Just makes them hangers on and grifters.

Please mate, take a break from the history books and read something written in the last decade or so

Trump isn't even a politician
Congratulations. That is the stupidest “argument” I have ever seen or heard.Now.

Unfortunately we are witnessing in real time what happens anytime anyone criticises the DNC on social media... or really says anything political other than "orange man bad":I attacked them for their bullshit and hypocrisy. Why does that trigger you?
If Trump is the most dangerous man in the world why do you enable him with more s**t he can control or use?
How dare you! I am not anti-intellectualism, as I am not self loathing.
EasternTiger will confirm that the Melbourne chapter of Mensa are unanimously supportive of Trump. I have to attend their meetings via Zoom these days as there is sadly no local chapter here in Brissy - due to the fact that I am the only person in QLD with an IQ > 132... or even greater than 100 if I'm being honest... I think all of that sun cooks their brains m8. Also the XXXX and Great Northern. Ever met a Lions supporter? Wouldn't trust em with a packet of crayons tbh. I digress.
Before beginning my reply, please allow me to acknowledge the traditional posters of this thread, including displaced conspiracy enjoyers like Lebbo73 and the bois. I pay my respects to cookers past, present and emerging.Unfortunately, the leftie in charge of the money sent $80 of it to Ukraine.
Congratulations. That is the stupidest “argument” I have ever seen or heard.
I have spent a long time now trying to treat you in the best faith I can.Also not a single Trump hater here can admit that he wasn't referring to neo-nazis when he said good people on both sides and actually denounced them. Even with this evidence people like yourself, bourbons and CM86 still follow the narrative. That is an illness.
Gus...Then you've lived a sheltered sad life then.
Seems a common theme for the left leaning kids.
Not sheltered, not sad, not left leaning and (entering my 8th decade), definitely not a kid. Otherwise your post was very insightful.Then you've lived a sheltered sad life then.

More to the point... I chipped you about your ridiculous claim that Trump's not a politician -- a fallback for those of his defenders who are fast running out of excuses and false equivalences to minimise his appalling conduct. it's such a ludicrous position that any response risks dignifying it, so I'll keep it short:
He was president, now he's running again for the Republican nomination for the US presidency. That's a politician.
Wrong.Unfortunately we are witnessing in real time what happens anytime anyone criticises the DNC on social media... or really says anything political other than "orange man bad":

No nuance allowed, it's objective good v objective evil apparently. It's like Dubya with his whole "you're either with us or you're with theterroristsnutters in silly hats roaming around the capitol".
Wrong.
Plenty of people who criticize Trump will also criticize Biden.
Trump's cult followers however seem to ignore absolutely everything he does and just invent their own reality of who he is.
Righto, you stick with your silly, personal, just-made-it-up definition. The etymologists (for your benefit, people who understand words) don't agree with you, though.Former. He's a civilian now.
Not an elected official.
Can not vote on any policies, cannot sit in any senate's or houses.
You can call whoever the * you want a politician but I'm going with the definition of an elected official.
The rest are just but kissin grifters.

Yes, while giving Trump a pass for doing exactly the same thing.I attacked them for their bullshit and hypocrisy.
You really just replied to old mate decrying a lack of nuance? The bloke who has studiously argued here for about 12 months that the Dems and GOP are roughly equivalent on electoral fairness and voting?Unfortunately we are witnessing in real time what happens anytime anyone criticises the DNC on social media... or really says anything political other than "orange man bad":

Nail, head.I think because there's no real, logical way to support Trump without having to ignore and deny the majority of things about him.
Whereas it's pretty easy to nominally support Biden as the better of two bad options, but still not particularly like him.

Pro-tip: Someone making fun of you for such obvious double standards does not in any way = triggered.
I don't give a toss that you don't give a toss about himI don't give a toss about Trump. You can't make me give a toss about him.

Potting only the democrats for the same stuff Trump has done remains hilarious and I'll continue to note it. Along with continuing to call out your ludicrous contention about the Dems and GOP being roughly equivalent on electoral fairness and voting, of course.
