I have never, and will never, complain to the moderators because I believe that this is supposed to be a place for grown ups and that we don’t need a “safe space” to deal with each other. I know I can be a rat-bast@rd, and I know everyone else can be one too under the correct circumstances, and I plan accordingly.
So now it’s Trump who killed those Russian journalists? But who killed Kenny? Putin?
I think you are overstating and even misstating the comment. Because of Hitler’s book, people should have known what they were buying. That does not mean they did. I haven’t read any of the candidates books. I have heard a lot about Trump’s books, especially “The Art of the Deal,” so I know some things there. What I know bothers me in that I think you cannot be sure of his true goals. There is nothing ideologically the same as Hitler. The similarity is in the fact that a lot of people are getting very enthusiastic when they do not really know what they are signing up for. The similarity ends there. Trump is no Hitler.
As I stated in subsequent posts, she/he is nothing more than a troll. And in my case, she implied that I was threatening her with violence..............See her post #124.....
She's trolling for bannings........
Another similarity:
People are so fed up with the way things are, they will overlook a lot of things that would otherwise bother them in order to gain a few issues. Germans did that with Hitler. It is a point of how people tend to act like herds of sheep rather than individual, principled thinkers. That is not a statement for Trump people only. It is people in general. When the crowd gets frustrated, people turn into, well, herds, or mobs, or whatever similar word you choose.
It really isn’t about Trump more than it is about the turncoat politicians who have been promising solutions only to do the opposite once in office. They created the mob. Trump is the guy who happens to be there, is not “one of them” and is a forceful leader — so the herd follows. I am not sure we can blame anyone but the GOPe. Human nature is what it is.
Yes they did indeed. You have to understand that language is a tool, and if you are careless, ignorant, or plain didn't pay attention in school, and mis-use it, it reflects poorly upon you and makes one wonder what else did you get wrong. There is no picture of you, nor your resume, alongside your post, so all readers have to go on is content and how it is presented.
An analogy is you take your car for a tuneup and it comes back driving funny because the tire pressures are incorrect. Hmmm, you wonder, did they even bother to check the fan belt. Little things add up to big things, because of a nail the battle was lost, etc. Tense is a simple thing, no tricky punctuation, and you got it wrong. I'm sure you won't be so careless next time.

People often forget who the enemy is.
That’s because it’s an Ocean of Rubio.
PHHHTTTT.
that’s good.
But this election has nothing to do with Hitler, mass murder or his Nazi supporters. Zip. Comparing them to Trump and his supporters like the one individual did here, is ludicrous and really offensive to most folks.
It’s not complex and most fully understand what his comment was all about.
It is the situation that was compared, not the ideology.
You are right that it is not complex. I have, however, run out of ways to explain it. The situation is similar, not the ideology.
What a condescending statement you make, trying to mask the obvious, that someone broke the law. You cannot explain that away, not change the law, so you resort to ridicule, the primary tool of the Left. You can make a better argument if you try... You will still be on the losing side, but at least you would have tried in an honest fashion.
Apparently this poster has been given a pass. That’s OK. At least he ID’d himself.
This individual is attempting to bait people with really reckless nasty comments. Just a heads up.
I didn’t mask it in the least, and that makes you, Mr. know-it-all, a liar, plain and simple.
That is a good observation and would like to expand upon it; I opine that Americans love Trump, that is Americans who are proud to be American and who are proud of their country. There is a considerable number of Americans in name only who think they are somehow elite and better than the real Americans, the ones who make the country run. These faux Americans look down on the real Americans for no apparent reason other than, I sincerely believe, jealousy. They know their useless degrees prepare them for nothing useful in our society; The can''t drive an 18 wheeler, run a backhoe, or even dig a ditch by hand. But somehow their useless degrees give them a sense that they are better that the real Americans.
These over-educated idiots would be useful people if they had a trade and could feel pride in what they do. But they don't, and this just grinds them. And they, with very few exceptions, have not worn their countries uniform. They always will wonder if they could have done it, and wish they had not been talked out of joining by their guidance counselor. These and some other cause them to act out and despise what they are not and probably never will be, useful citizens who take pride in their family, friends, neighborhood, state and country. Trump is just the latest outlet for assuaging their jealousy.
One can understand why some Trump supporters feel sensitive. No one likes to be looked down upon, especially from those who couldn't fix a leaky toilet with both hands and a flashlight.
TOUGH CRAP.
If OBAMA tells me to HATE Russia, and Trump tells me to love Russia.
...I will love Russia.
(how about trying something else)
Yes, I see now, thanks. I won’t waste my time.
