Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostThat doesn't cut it pix. He has also appealed to neo nazi's and white supremacists with is immigration rhetoric and policies without forcefully condemning such groups when they show him support. With groups like that, anything less than complete condemnation of them allows them to believe you are 'really' on their side. Trump has - in act after act - let dictators, despots, and groups like the white supremacists and neo nazi's feel emboldened to do what they do and express their hat more openly across the world. It is what it is, and Trump not forcefully condemning such things and tempering his behavior as a response to understanding how his actions have 'green lighted' them is a big part of the problem.
Both Bushes, McCain, and Romney.

But instead of repudiating the literal nazis that are in Trumps camp (I've met them IRL) you guys prefer to find a bunch of photos of democrats freeze framed during speeches and its still not a proper sieg heil.
Pathetic, each and every one of you.

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostNo, they can't pix. That is the point of my question, to have you back up the assertion. Without back up, you are basically saying "no, I don't have a legitimate reason to bring them into the discussion.""The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostHas any of them been fined even a tenth of the $375,000 that the Obama campaign was?
The distinction between the Obama campaign is one of degree: civil infractions with varying amounts of money raised and fined. The distinction between those campaigns and Trump's is one of kind: civil infractions vs. criminal violations. Failure to report vs. conspiracy to quash negative news stories just before an election.

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostNo pix. Reagan, the bushes it was never like this.
To which some American conservatives wearily reply: Oh, you don’t say? Jaundiced after hearing past GOP candidates described in similarly extreme terms, some conservatives feel that Democrats and liberal pundits have cried wolf, describing past Republicans with such elevated levels of alarm that warnings about Trump don’t elicit the same urgency.
Dangerously ignorant about policy and incurious about the world? That was the line on George W. Bush 16 years ago. Radical, unacceptable views about women? Said of any number of Republicans. Overrated business career? Just ask Mitt Romney about that one. (Not only was Romney’s success credited to his father’s connection, The New York Times reported,“Mr. Romney, though, never ran a corner store or a traditional business. Instead, he excelled as a deal maker,” which sounds eerily familiar.) A temperament unsuited for the Oval Office? Some said the same thing about John McCain. Fascism? Two videos uploaded by users to a MoveOn contest likened Bush to Adolph Hitler in 2004.* Extreme positions? “He’s the most conservative nominee that they’ve had going back to Goldwater,” top Obama aide David Plouffe said of Romney in 2012.

Democrats have been calling republicans racist, sexist, homophobic, etc, for years. Nobody is listening anymore."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."
