| JWeinCom said: First off, I mainly just needed to rant about Trump, and that just happened to be an opportunity. So, don't take it too personally. We actually do have a clear criteria about what being the best president means. The president's jobs are very clearly laid out in the constitution. You can argue about what the best way to go about these duties is, just like you could argue about which quarterback gives you the best chance of winning. But, arguing that we violate the first amendment by putting Muslims on a registry is objectively bad presidenting. Not knowing that Russia has already invaded the Ukraine is objectively bad presidenting. Arguing that we deport US born citizens in defiance of the 14th amendment is objectively bad presidenting. And if you support the things Donald Trump actually says, yes you are too god damn stupid to get mad at. If you support things like, "When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best... they're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people." If you think actually support statements like that and the others I mentioned, then you're too stupid to be angry at. And I don't have anything against them. I don't have anything against stupid people. You have to work with what you have. But, I don't think you're stupid. I think you are fully capable of rationally evaluating Trump's statements, yet you refuse to. You said that people are being unfair to Trump, but you refuse to address any of the horrible things he's said or suggested that I've brought up, or that anyone else has. You've accused of us demonizing Trump, yet you haven't been able to refute anything we've said. Instead you're going off on nonsense telling me that people choose who they want in a democracy which is like no shit Sherlock. I know I'm at the mercy of others, you being one of them, and that is the reason I'm fighting about it. Because I want you to actually think about what the candidates are saying, and whether or not you support those things, so you'll actually make a rational and informed decision. Yet for some reason, you seem completely unwilling to run Trump's statements through your brain and seem to be implying that it's ok for him to say whatever he wants and we shouldn't be upset because we're at the mercy of voters or some such shit. |
No single sole measure is enough to determine what is a good president by "objective" measures when human feelings factor into that and even in the case of the constitution that can be changed. You won't believe me but profiling by religous belief and banning immigration by religious belief CAN BE DONE! (We have done this before with the Chinese Exclusion Act and we can do it again for Muslims.) I didn't know that it was a presidents job to even care about what the other countries are doing but OK I guess we'll add that into one of your arbitrary requirements and him deporting US born citizens is not even in his immigration reform plans but I don't deny him ending birthright citizenship which is still two completely different outcomes ...
So if you agree with anything that Donald Trump says even if it is the truth your automatically stupid, am I right ?
I am capable of rationalizing Donald Trump's statement but what I want to know is can you and the others seperate your anger when analyzing everything he says to the same extent ? Letting your anger cloud your judgement is NOT rational. Yes I do not bring up some of the questionable things that Trump says but that does not mean that I'm not aware of the crap he says however what reason do I have to get so worked up over about it when he didn't personally insult me or when it's practically the hip thing to shit all over Trump while also bringing it up ?
It's true that you guys do unfairly demonize him for BOTH the TRUTH or the other supposedly outrageous things he says and don't say I NEVER did refute some of the things that you guys said about him when looking at this post or my previous other posts but your anger just gets in the god damned way of making a proper judgement ...
If I hadn't known better it'd be just easier to claim that you straight up hate him much like how Soundwave comes to reconciliation about him not believing in the the republican platform than it is trying to keep it real ...
