Bush killed way more people than Trump. Trump even if Corona kills half a million still can't touch Bush in pure death numbers. Trump is still not worse than George W Bush in the amount of awful shit he did while in office. Which might be crazy, but it just shows exactly how bad Bush was. We had almost 100K Americans die in a 2 month Span and Bush's carnage still far out paces Trump
for the record I just said she is against x,y and z. I didn’t say she should have preformed a miracle and had the Senate vote on the bill. Obviously that’s out of her hand. My whole issue was people posting tweets praising her for what she said like it matters. If she held better positions I’d be all for giving credit for the shit talking. But, as it stands it is nothing but bluster.
I tend to agree with someone who said trump is worse domestically but bush was worse internationally. Bush also seems to get a pass because Chaney is seen as the real culprit by many and Bush seemed “likable”. FWIW I am not arguing either of those positions.
I couldn't imagine caping for a piece of shit like Pilosi. Refuses to do Temp UBI, Refuses to do Temp expansion of medicare to the jobless, refuses to do rent and mortgage freeze. She fucking sucks, the President admits that he fired a fucking IG at the request Mike Pompeo because that person was investigating Pompeo for fast tracking an arms deals to the fucking Saudis and she's on TV talking about how fat Trump is. She fucking sucks at her job and I'll be happy when I never have to see stupid ass face again. Hopefully she chokes on that all ice cream she has. Piece of shit.
Even for shitheel leaches who become pundits, it’s amazing how quickly you can go through the spin cycle.
Pretty sure there was more in the House bill but I don’t disagree with his point. I’ll say it again, more progressives need to be elected to congress to change things. Yes party took boehner hostage and sent the country down a crappy path. Progressives need to course correct.
The tweet was from the fourth. I'm pretty sure it didn't take the $3 trillion bill that just passed into account.
I don't want to hear anyone defending Pilosi. It's pretty obvious what her game is and it's certainly not to help anyone but herself. She doesn't have shit to lose but adding 3 things into those bills that would actually show's shes fighting and she won't do it because she's a piece of shit. Like subsidizing Cobra doesn't fucking help anyone except insurance companies. That's quite literally a pay day to her insurance company friends. THAT'S IT. They did that entire unemployment expansion thing, that helped no one in red states. Its bullshit these people straight up don't give a fuck and it's obvious to everyone. People are out here dying and piece of shit was showing off ice cream, and making bullshit backroom deals with Mitch Mcconell to help corporations and calling the president fat on tv. She deserves as much vitriol thrown her way as the Republicans.
Sure. The bill didn't go far enough. Of course, moderates thought it went too far. That's the problem with having a wide spectrum under your tent. The GOP has it easy since they basically only have one shade of person, white racist. Not a lot off intraparty squabbling there. And none of the shit matters anyway since McConnell isn't going to do a damn thing with it.
Nothing it subsidized Cobra as a pay day to insurance companies. They literally do nothing to help anyone. Even if we got rid of every single republican in this country we'd still be a right wing government due to all the fucking neoliberals in the Democratic party like Pilosi. These people don't give a fuck about any of us. This country is so fucked up. 100K people die and they're doing nothing.
What are you referring to wrt Bush that equates to 100k deaths that Trump hasn’t also had on his watch? War on Iraq didn’t touch that. If you are referring to GHW he had AIDS and that actually killed more over time, but I’m trying to figure out what you are referring to specifically. I hated GW and at the time thought nobody could be worse. Trump is 20 GWs to me, even if they both sucked.
Didn't Iraq war kill hundreds of thousands of civilians? Not Americans but innocent people nonetheless.
The estimate is somewhere around 1.2 million as of 2007 unless you know.... All those brown people dying don't matter.
You saw my post. I thought you meant US deaths. I still think Trumps damage to the country and the world has been much worse but maybe not as obvious in immediate death tallies from this one incomplete disaster versus the other which was obviously bad in its impact internationally and in its costs that could have been used better to help domestic issues.
Like, no offense but this is American ignorance at it's finest. Trump has done nothing thus far that is equally as damaging as the Iraq War and subsequent fall out. Like I really think you should do a deep dive on the Iraq War and all the problems that resulted from that war. I can't even think of something Trump has done that equals out to that, and as I pointed out his incompetence has led to 100k deaths here in two months.
So you are going to die on the Bush was worse than Trump ship? The impact that Trump has left on this country is not even far from over and will take decades to unravel, and that is depending upon Republican's being overthrown. You are judging an event during the Bush Presidency that was God awful, versus an incomplete Trump Presidency, where so much of what he has done has only been setup for future events that will be much worse, IMO. I am not judging covid against the War.
Here are the questions off that survey from judicial watch. All questions have yes, no, or unsure for answers. Think I'm going to fill it out the worst way possible for them and then sign off with a big fuck you GOP and mail it back. Do you believe non-US citizens should be allowed to vote in American elections. Do you believe your state, TN, should be allowed to require potential voters provide an official form of citizenship prior to voting. Do you believe amnesty of any kind will make it easier for non-citizens in TN to vote. The next set are prefaced by a statements saying some states are spending as much as $3 billion a year in direct services to illegal aliens.... Do you believe tax payer funded expenses will increase in TN if the Left (they capitalized it) succeeds in blocking border security reforms Are you aware of tax payer funded expenses in TN for illegal aliens Do you believe taxpayers in TN should pay for educating illegal aliens A few more questions like those then it gets into questions about border security, sanctuary cities, etc.
No, you are only seeing what you want to see, because you tend to get tunnel vision when you go on one of your rants about a specific issue. I am not diminishing the War in any way, and my initial thought was trying to understand what you were considering the outcome of Bush's Presidency, because you only said he was worse without pointing to why. I then wrongfully assumed your basis was American lives, so I was wondering what else you were counting towards his tally. I'm just saying Trump's damage is only starting to become clear. We are still in it. They both sucked, but Trump has planted seeds that could go on for much longer at this point, including the Supreme Court, encouraging racist armed militia's, ruining our status as a World leader, the environment, immigration, impact on the poor by destroying the economy, abortion rights, etc. GW made me change from an immature Republican who had no idea why I was one to a liberal Democrat, so it obviously had a great impact on me.
I didn't vote for him. As I mentioned, I changed party affiliations prior to him getting elected, because I saw the incompetence.
I'm not going to address "I then wrongfully assumed your basis was American lives, so I was wondering what else you were counting towards his tally." because that comment infuriates the fuck out of me about Americans in general not just you. You're equating a lot of Mitch McConnell carnage to Trump and that's a mistake. You're also ignoring that fact that all that awful shit happened under Bush too. Attacks on the environment, impact on the poor by destroying the economy, attacks on abortion rights etc. That's the fucking republican playbook. This is literally GWB all over again except there's not Iraq war and GWB didn't have McConnell who might be the most evil politician in American history. I don't have tunnel vision about GWB being in power. You do because it didn't damn near ruin your family like it did mine. You didn't get to see carnage first hand. So of course you're like "Ah no it wasn't that bad." Our status as world leader being ruined is not a bad thing. A country that treats it's citizens especially POC's this badly has no fucking business calling themselves a leader of anything.
