    The President said the chant made him feel sad.

    Are you kidding me?

    When you whip up ugly hatred, then ugly hated is what you get.

    He thinks this is a game, it is not.

    He is hurting the nation by enabling hatred in return for political capital.

    Ms Linda is a mess, not sure who's the biggest scumbag her or McConnell
    Graham bought into the con. He has become part of it.

    Trump is a master conman. The pied piper of the Republican party.

    Trump said if it happened again he would try to stop it.

    Let's break that down.

    You know there is no 'if' about it.

    It is going to happen again. He has decided that he can make his presidential campaign about him against these four junior congresswomen of color. For him to continue that, he will have to talk about them again. and as soon as he mentions Omar, the chant will start again. The conned are not listening to reason.

    And there is no 'try' about it.

    He needs to begin the next rally by saying he will not tolerate any such chants and if they begin he will stop and walk away from the stage and it will be instantly over, just like he walked away from Kim.

    Do you think he has the never to make SURE it doesn't happen again?

    'Try'.

    WE CALL B S !!!

    Graham is the angriest person I've ever seen on TV, could have sworn his head was going to literally explode during that Kav confirmation

    Yeah, defend that kind of bullshit. And the Liar-in-Chief.

    They were chanting about an American citizen. He let it go and then lied about it today.

    The Republican party has lost it's ability to think OBjectively.

    It is now only able to think SUBjectively.

    That is a weakness, and it will surely be to their detriment.

    It is only a matter of time.

    Omar is trash. I'm not concerned for her at all. we'd all be better off if she was back in Somalia.

    She speaks like al Shabaab

    It is on the right - because that is the message dictated to them by the talking heads of spin.



    Yes, you are. You're just not hearing it from the rest because the rest of the nation has not been conned to only repeat the dictated messages.



    But of course. That sounds like a good way to dismiss it. Naturally, you would never want to harbor any thoughts that it was a slow motion tragedy of epic profoundness unfolding right before our eyes. That would indicate flaws or weakness within the Republican party. That is the one thing conned Republicans cannot do. It violates the con job.
    I’m dismissive of the chant because it’s just the latest faux outrage *I’m supposed* to be outraged over. I choose not to be. I don’t like to be told what to be outraged over or what is racist or what isn’t it.

    To me, this is an outrage:

    “We are introducing a resolution . . . to really speak about the American values that support and believe in our ability to exercise our first amendment rights in regard to boycotting,” Omar told Al-Monitor. “And it is an opportunity for us to explain why it is we support a nonviolent movement, which is the BDS movement.”

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.ya...184754663.html


    Seems pretty clear that Omar is out to boycott Israel. The Nazis organized boycotts against Jews, didn’t they? Of course, she’s already free to do that under the First Amendment. But First Amendment rights aren’t absolute [one can be sued for liable in spite of the First] and if Omar wants to Congress to institute a boycott of Israel—she has some heavy lifting to do lol.

    So, some Trump supporters were chanting to ‘send her back’. NOT because she’s black, a Muslim and from Somalia. Rather, because she’s an antisemite.

    I advocate sending all antisemitic immigrants back to where they came from. We don’t need that kind of thing here. Not that it’s ever going to happen but I’m on board with the sentiment. That some boisterous Trump supporters would voice that opinion, in unison, at a rally tells me we haven’t totally lost the country, yet anyway.

    Yes- putting party before country is a terrible indictment. Some of them even put Izrael before both.

    I guess that we're all looking to have you and your ilk confined in regulated compounds where you can't do modern civilization any damage.

    This Squad and company really should quit "whipping up" that hatred.... There would never have been this "game" you claim if they weren't in constant loathing mode... It's unreal the chaos they've created...

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    No we would not, and that is xenophobic thinking. Anyone who dwells on such thoughts would never achieve moksha.
