Donald Trump Voters, Just Hear Me Out
New York Times ^ | NOV. 2, 2016 | Thomas L. Friedman

Posted on 11/02/2016 6:16:41 AM PDT by artichokegrower

This is my last column until after the election, so I’d like to address the people least likely to read it: Donald Trump voters. Who knows? Maybe I’ll get lucky and a few of them will buy fish wrapped in this column, and they’ll accidentally peruse it! Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Looney-tune “friends” in Great Britain and Israel think Trump is a member of both the Nazi Party and the KKK. They refuse to accept that there are about 12 members of the KKK left in America. Euroweenies are such a**holes.

“...she’s studious...”

But used “I don’t recall” 39 times in her FBI “interview.”

Friedman, we all know that the Clintons represent the
worst of the lying crook class. What is worse is that
they are the most prominent part of a political party
that believes that truth is whatever makes them look
good at any particular time. They will demand prosecution
of their opposition for things they do without hesitation.
And, no the conservative politicians are never as bad as
the liberals. Why is that? It is because conservatives
have to look over their shoulders for investigators
from the media. Because the liberals and the news media
are joined at the hip the liberals get away with just
about whatever they want. That isn’t right, I’m voting
for Trump.

Notice ever since Trump threatened to sue the “he touched me” accusers with legal action, they’ve faded back into the woodwork? Not another peep from any of them.

Interesting, no?

This sounds like my brother practically begging my husband and me not to vote for Trump.

His Facebook reeks of desperation and constant theories of Trump/Russian connections.

He’s a Hillary shill that won’t be silenced and told my family he and his wife may really move to Canada if Trump wins.

I said, “Well, I guess we’ll come visit for the holidays.”

"New York Times reports 95.7 percent fall in quarterly profit" - probably caused by the publishing of demented, deranged, dung-filled drivel like this.

If you study he Billy Bush tape from beginning to end and especially watch how professional Trump was to the actress you will see that Trump is just doing some bombastic speaking. He never really pays much attention to the actress. Trump was mostly describing what some media stars can get away with and talking bullshit at the same time.

He was talking about grown women. Unlike some Democrats who prefer them under age.

Oh I have no doubt whatsoever these women were hired by the Clinton crime syndicate to accuse Trump. They were probably told by Hillary “Oh he can’t sue you because he is a public figure” WRONG. Trump does not take slander or defamation lightly. Remember that Miss America contestant who said his pageants are rigged? He sued her and won, she has to pay him $5 million and you can damn well bet he will sue these women as well.

Thomas Friedman, I will not hear you out, nor will I head your last minute pleas. You are now, (like the rest of your lackeys) a very worried psuedo-journalist, who now fears that a man you fiercely opposed MAY win the elections and you are a scared diarrhea-running (that is, very wet) POS.

You were a superb journalist in Beirut 1982 (I read your book) and have turned mouthpiece for one of the worst Presidents this nation has ever seen. By excusing the Clinton's of all their wrongdoings and lessening the severity of their actions these last 30 years, you actually reveal yourself to be the “type” who are no longer respected or listened to.

You just can't face seeing the Government return back to the people whom you probably despise.

So, as the Brits say, “Sod off”.

I saw the article was written by Thomas “Loopy” Friedman and stopped right there.

Thomas Friedman was never an honest journalist, though he might have more brains and talent than younger journalists.

I know his family and friends. His own mother disapproved of his anti-Americanism and his hate of the State of Israel.

Wow - how far the “smart and educated” have fallen versus the ‘particularly less-educated white males’. Nothing like a snootful of elitism in the morning.

Friedman ..... “f” you ... there’s nothing else in my vocabulary that’s appropriate to say.

Bleed to death, from the abused rectum caused by their 'partner'.

Well, having some kind of college degree DOES NOT GUARANTEE you can build a boat or a bridge.

So, “less educated” is not a very good guide to use. I might have more education, but I certainly couldn’t build either a boat or a bridge.

This whole education slur is just the LIBERAL SNOBBERY.

Oh yeah, Thomas, it was a microchip that put miners and steelworkers out of work. Sure it was.

I have a German Facebook friend who believes that if elected Trump will decriminalize rape. She doesn’t specify how he will do this. She should worry about her own country. Merkel seems to be well on her way to decriminalizing rape over there – at least for certain perps.

And most of those are undercover FBI Agents.
