Trump IS the news

Yeah, I'm sure you're trying to be sarcastic or ironic, but this is basically true. You won't see the faggots in the mainstream media reporting this at all. Why? Because they're mother fucking traitors that should be shot like traitors for their part in eroding American democracy. The fact that we continue to put up with this shit, the Clintons selling uranium to the Russians, the FBI and justice department covering it up, etc., shows that we are a failed state in the making.

This injustice cannot stand. Trump needs to act. What plan do you propose? How do you mobilize the support to make it happen?oregonblitzkrieg said:Yeah, I'm sure you're trying to be sarcastic or ironic, but this is basically true.

Trump's act is already tiresome. He hasn't done anything other than becoming super fucking annoying to everyone on both sides.
He was here a few weeks back holding a rally for Luther Strange. Then Luther got smashed the next day in the vote. If Bama doesn't care what Donnie says anymore then you could imagine what every swing state is like. -
It actually pretty amazing how you can pack so much stupid into a relatively short post.oregonblitzkrieg said:Yeah, I'm sure you're trying to be sarcastic or ironic, but this is basically true.

Tear the whole rotten thing down and start again. America still has a solid foundation, it's people, the rest is trash. Trump should spend the next 3-7 years delegitimizing, dismantling and destroying every last vestige of the current establishment. Leave nothing standing. Raze it to the fucking ground. Then start anew. No republicans, no democrats, ban all political parties for a time and a season to see how that works. Return power to the people, take it away from the parties. George Washington himself warned of the dangers of political parties. Term limits. Trash like Pelosi have been in government since 1987. 1980 fucking 7. 30 years. Corruption has ample space to fester. It was never meant to be that way.

So did Nacy win a 30 year term? You mean the people voted for her time after time?oregonblitzkrieg said:Tear the whole rotten thing down and start again.

It's almost like a government for the people by the people...

What I'm implying that you are missing.... Trump is the news. He has access to everything he wants. He can instruct the AG to investigate this. Republicans, who owns both houses of Congress, can investigate this. They spent how many years investigating Benghazi and emails? You'd think, if there were truth to what Fox news is reporting and Trump is parroting, that the Republican controlled AG or Congress would be all over it like stink on shit.oregonblitzkrieg said:Yeah, I'm sure you're trying to be sarcastic or ironic, but this is basically true.

But you are too dumb and too partisan to look past the fact that your news source drills it and at Trump parrots it, so it must be true.
Nice rants tho, rather entertaining. -
Who ever said the republicans can be trusted to investigate corruption of any kind, fucktard? They are nearly as repulsive as the democrats and equally deserving of the guillotine.2001400ex said:

Besides, who gives a shit? Hillary and Obama are both irrelevant now. Republicans have what they wanted, full control of all 3 divisions. And they still can't pass anything on their agenda. Nice way to keep the promises to their voters. -

I agree with term limits but paying them 50k instead of 200k isn't going to make a difference. Campaign funding is a way bigger issue than their relatively minuscule salary.oregonblitzkrieg said:

Right, elections where we get to choose between two corrupt, bankrupt parties that, when its boiled down to basics, are basically the same party -- the Washington establishment. It can be shaken up and broken with term limits.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

End of the day, there is no easy solution. OBK is right that the long-time career politicians end up bought off by the corporate establishment that only has one set of interests in mind.
RedRocket and Boobs are right that you don't want to dis-incentivize the position and keep good people out. Even at $200k per year, the really good people make far more in the private sector. Why would any rational actor take a pay-cut and have to endure the bullshit? Character ethos just aren't the main thing anymore.
RIP Pat Tillman.
The contrarian solution I've been mulling over is to the switch the term-limits between congress and executive. I would institute a 2-term max on members of the House and a 1-term max on Senators; then I would lift term-limits all together on the executive.
The idea is to keep Congress more representative of the people than the corporate establishment - with a revolving door. This would insure less impact by the corporate establishment interests by removing the inherent problems of the current bargain = trading power and privilege.
I would lift term-limits on the executive, because in a time of crisis, you need a strong, resolute leader to lead and continue to govern. Losing FDR after a second term would have been a disaster, imo. Nothing has ever been gained by cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Term limits won't help anything when there's people who get paid to bribe people for a living (lobbyists). Right now there is too much money coming in on each side. Look at the last health care vote, the 49-51 where McCain was the deciding vote. 49 Republicans had too much money coming in telling them to repeal Obamacare no matter what. 48 Democrats had too much money telling them to keep Obamacare no matter what. McCain is old and was the sacrificial lamb. So basically 3 people voted in what's in the best interest of the nation, which is to not pass that shitty repeal. (Before you grill me, we need to fix Obamacare, but cutting taxes on the wealthy and cutting subsidies on the poor is not the right way to do it).pawz said:End of the day, there is no easy solution.

I can agree on term limits, like 5 terms for the house and 2 terms for the Senate. But citizens United needs to be gone and lobbying needs to end. -
Who are these 'really good people' everyone keeps talking about? Presumably they already occupy these positions, and yet the country is so fucked up right now, it's like retards are running the show. How many skills do you need to go to Washington and represent your district? Because the only ones currently required are graft, extortion and know how to be a good liar.
The executive branch needs limits. Do you want Caesar Obama ruling for 20 years?
