Right...they don't make movies about the Klan in your country because of the shame in admitting to it. Why would Trump be an expert on the Klan ?

The Klan wielded significant political power in SK. It's all good (and bad)...no reason why Trump should know more about the Klan beyond what DHS and FBI tells him. Do you think Trudeau is an expert on Sons of Odin or Proud Boys ? Edited October 21, 2020 by bush_cheney2004 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's not an expert on the Klan or as he says doesn't know much about them, then he shouldn't be sending them messages. Link me to where Trudeau sends them messages.

Yes....Americans have voting rights regardless of their political or social views. Even some felons are getting their voting rights back in some states. Hate speech is protected by the U.S. Constitution, and government cannot typically infringe on those rights.

You cannot stop hate speech, but supporting a group that practices it daily and then backpeddling and claiming you don't know much about the group and condemning them makes you look foolish. Blackfacing 20 years ago was very common in the arts, just ask Jimmy Fallon and Ted Danson for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it doesn't...it's just political expediency. Obama had the same problem with his pastor, Reverend Wright.

So what's your answer as a conservative, to the three trillion dollar deficit the US is running? Just keep borrowing? I have a vague memory of the Clinton years, when people were actually talking about how many years it would take to pay off the debt given the US had a big surplus. Then the Republicans made a huge tax cut, which put the US back into deficits, and then the Republicans made another big tax cut, and another, and another. And now the US debt is humongous and growing at a prodigious rate. Because no one has the balls to either raise taxes or cut spending.

The U.S. federal debt was never paid off during Clinton's years because even with budget surpluses, more money was still owed to Social Security and other trust funds that the government was still spending. Total U.S. federal debt increased each year for fiscal years 1993 - 2001. ...but your version makes for good politics ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestCanMan Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 1 hour ago, Cannucklehead said: In an interview with Sean Hannity on Thursday evening President Trump said: "I've said it many times, let me be clear again, I condemn the KKK [Ku Klux Klan]. I condemn all white supremacists. I condemn the Proud Boys. "I don't know much about the Proud Boys, almost nothing, but I condemn that." So he doesn't know much about them, tells them to stand back and stand by, then condems them. TBH, not many people know much about the Proud Boys. I personally don't, even after a Google search. I found out that they hate Antifa, and they've fought with them on at least one occasion, but that just means they're not members of the alt-left. The alt-left media describes them as "violent white supremacists" because of their fight with Antifa, but a lot of the Proud Boys are black and latino - and blacks and latinos aren't typically white supremacists. Believe it or not you need to explain that to some people. What can I say - leftists are extremely stupid for the most part. FYI cannuckle, Trump didn't just blurt out that the Proud Boys should stand down. Chris Wallace specifically asked Trump to tell them to stand down, and he did it, assuming that Wallace knew wtf he was talking about. This is as side story. The biggest story in US politics right now is the emerging evidence that Hunter Biden's involvement with China and Burisma is just as bad as it was originally thought to be.

Biden at least has experience. And if it was anyone else but Trump, or if Trump had shown even the slightest degree of competence, or if he'd just surrounded himself with smart, capable people and taken their advice, if we didn't see a parade of people through his administration and the ones leaving didn't keep talking about a guy who cared nothing about terrorism threats, about security or intelligence, who understood anything about government or economics... but nope. Trump is too lacking in anything remotely like qualifications, too corrupt, too incompetent, too unstable. Even Harris would be a better president - and Hillary Clinton would have been a HUGELY better president. Almost anyone would have been. I'm still stunned they voted for this idiot instead of Jeb Bush. How much different things would have been had Bush won the nomination...
