But the notion we could drape the trapping of representative government and liberty over the backward Mideast and it would transform into a peaceful garden of Eden with a Disney ending.

We could do this all by getting in numerous wars in the mid-east and deliberately undercut our ability to achieve tool victory.

That was not lunacy? I guess it takes one to know one.

"Trust Liz"

"Trust Dick" - at least thats' what Mayor Brown told Senator Harris

I happen to agree QAnon is dangerous lunacy. But then again, so is every nightly newscast on mainstream television.

Russia, Russia, Russia the 3 year Washington ‘elite’ conspiracy against President Trump AND the Americans people who elected him was the ‘dangerous lunacy’ ...

Explain that Liz...

What did Liz Cheney have to say the last three years as intelligence thugs and Washington ‘elites’ worked to take down a duly elected President?

I’m guessing she didn’t say crap about that outrage.

This is because of the FL candidate who backs the QAnon won against the incumbent in the primary. Second, Trump never officially embraced QAnon, nor did he not embrace the supporters of QAnon. This is the David Duke issue in deja vu mode but only this time its with QAnon and its supporters.

You have to remember the demoncrats are seeking the populace vote and to destroy the Electoral College. So anyone with any iota of popularity is given immediate standing where they had very little before. In other words if you are a Hollywood star you would get to pass through the ropes and immediately allowed into the VIP area. Unless you are a repube then you get shown the garbage bin in the kitchen..

-----------------------

I said it was a David Duke issue. If you don't understand that statement you need to do more research before opening up about it.

Here I will give it to you so the next time you might be more informed. The David Duke issue, and I reiterate issue, was during Trump's first campaign in which he said he didn't know who David Duke was and since he did not condemn Duke, the media tried to vilify Trump but was unsuccessful. This is the same scenario playing out again, thus it is a David Duke issue. So please next time you start in on something you need to be a little more educated because this was not derisory towards Trump rather it was about the situation.

Will I retract what I said? No. Just because you are ignorant of the issue doesn't mean the analogy was wrong. Work on your current events and your reading comprehension as I noticed you omitted the word "issue" when you so politely asked me to retract the statement.

But... simply by calling out DD you do tarnish what the issue actually is. You are tarnishing it by simply comparing it to DD, don’t you understand that. You pick a democrat racist KKK f that donated some money to trump and the media asked him about it.

It has nothing to do with DD, are you gonna next compare trumps response on Charlottesville?

Sorry but the Q anon issue is not any type of DD issue or Charlottesville or any other racist trigger words you can think of. You are mistaken, despite what you say. I will say it again.

Qanon is not a David Duke issue. It is not the same play by Trump and you shouldn’t label it as such. It’s actually horrific imho that you would try to label the Q movement as a David Duke issue.

If you think the Q movement is on par with David Duke, and the KKK. Tell me more. Also tell me more on the methods Trump used to combat the DD stupid questions and how it compares to the Qanon answers he gave.

You got the feed and the knowledge.

I guess calling out Watergate tarnishes the the issue in whatever is being referred to Watergate. If you have another name for the David Duke issue then by all means let’s hear it.

How much of an idiot are you. Immediately going to the race-card calling me a racist for saying this is a David Duke issue.

Okay let’s start from scratch. Trump was in a television interview in which he was asked about condemning David Duke. Trump was asked by a reported about QAnon. Trump replied he didn’t know who that was and didn’t condemn David Duke. Trump repleied he didn’t know who QAnon was. The LSM tried to pin the moniker of Trump being associated with Duke as being a racist. The LSM are now trying to pin the moniker of the supporters of QAnon as nutbags etc. on Trump (See Art. 25 issues).

And your immediate race card play tells me more about you than I really want to know because you are acting more like a demoncrap that a repube. I bet you supported Yeb, didn’t you. No wait you supported Cruz, right?

I guess when people say this is a Watergate issue, you will call them racist too?

You don’t get it and you will never get it. You need to sit down and let the grown ups talk because apparently you can’t play with the big boys.

So let me be clear the tactics being used currently is from the same playbook used in the David Duke issue. Never said it was on par nor did I ever state it was racist. So you need to quit putting words in people’s mouths. And sit down and take notes and ask questions before accusing.

Again, the David Duke issue is about the tactics that were used to accuse Trump as is the QAnon issue about the tactics to accuse Trump. You missed that and that is what they want you to do. So please go away with you pulling the race card. Thet tactics are the same. Its a SOP to ask a question then accuse the POTUS of being a racist or nutbag etc. The tactics are the same the words are different. Its one in the same. But all you can see is that its a racist thing. So go away now let the grown ups talk.

You also conveniently left out the part of where I said it was in deja vu mode. Reading comprehension. Reading comprehension. Reading comprehension. You have been registered here since what 1999? Did someone hack your account? Because this has everything to do with tactics being used in both cases that are exactly the same and pulled from the same playbook. Immediately going to the race card is asinine and ludicrous for a repube. You know nothing of the demoncrat playbook. Understand that they, demoncraps, are trying to pin anything they can against Trump and currently they are working towards removal of him during his second term by calling him a nutbag. Thus citing Amendment 25 as he is mentally incompetent to run this country. There you have the entire playbook. The David Duke playbook was about labeling him as a racist before the election in 2016. And look where the country is now? The country is in turmoil over racism, albeit faux racism. Again, know your past and present current events so you can use that lump three feet above your behind to work. It’s called critical thinking. Something you lack as well as reading comprehension.

I accidentally omitted the word “issue” between Duke and playbook.

“And your immediate race card”

Sorry but you played the Race card first. it’s always in the pocket, doesn;t have the umpfh it used to have. DD is the race card the uniparties post most first to try to attack regardless of the candidate of which they hate. Try Ron Paul, Try George Bush it was tried and true then too. Keep going back to the DD origin, you will find it a tool. And DD is that tool, making money for supporting the opposite. DS tool.

And so you know, this isn’t a DD issue at all. To describe it as such is furthering your racist agenda to tarnish things paint Q as a white supremacist. rethink, reread and rethink.

Your intellect is no match, so you should retract your idiot statement too.

A David Duke “type” of issue would be more accurate.

Trump has no debt to the crazies in Qanon (they very much hurt him, and that may their intent) but it’s a broad categorization- many good people, Trump supporters, look to it. Mainly just because it presents narratives so different from the media’s.
I think of it as the right wing CNN.

It’s something the media can unfairly use against Trump- like Duke.
