Frokane's Mildly Politcal Hangout Thread

[POOHEAD189]

I was just not going to reply because none of that convinced me and I feel y'all are missing my points, but I'll reply one more time because I'd rather not be rude. But after this I'll probably wait for another subject.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity Your links didn't disprove politifact's legitimacy or accuracy, and California decided not to adhere to Trump because his claims were childish and baseless.

@mdkI never said he talked about himself. I never said anything about Obama.

I really don't understand why whenever I give a statement about Trump, people here either misread what I said, or they attack liberal/democratic candidates, when as I have repeated many times, I am neither a liberal or a democrat.

What has been reported, and what I did say, was that in briefings, Trump needs small, one page briefings to understand what is happening, and he pays more attention the more his name is mentioned.

Also I'd like to point out that I don't see why him potentially having a learning disability is such an insulting thing. I have that. Growing up it was hard to pay attention to anything that I wasn't previously interested in.

For example it's only been recently that I've been interested in stuff like Quantum Mechanics which has led me to not be entirely ignorant in such a field, but for the life of me I had to repeat my Physical Science class at grade 10 in grade 11 because I couldn't care less so I didn't pay attention. And it wasn't because I chose not to pay attention. The info they gave me just slipped out of my head. But then again that was also partly due to the way they taught me and the way the education system works, something we really need to overhaul.

Lots of people have those problems, and a lot of the time these problems go undiagnosed in older people. So I'd actually say it's very likely he has some undiagnosed ADD perhaps.

The links provided were to provide support of claims, however, the Politifact one I chose purposefully in that case because it is still incorrect; the same could be said for the wiretapping claims. Infamously, that same site is well known for purporting that "it was not bleach" Hillary Clinton's subordinates used but a webtool called BleachBit and had previously rated that claim as "Pants on fire." of a lie when it is now no secret that they had indeed attempted to destroy evidence. They are simply not reliable sites and must be taken with added salt on anything they post; they have a motive, which is to say they will tell the truth so long as it fits their narrative.

California chose not to adhere to the President's directive? It matters nothing if they think his accusations are childish, the man is still President and has an authority to direct his powers. Furthermore, California is an excellent example of the "Resistance", in that even now they are pushing their sanctuary state and city status against federal law enforcement. Is it "childish" on behalf of the government to enforce its laws, such as investigating voter fraud or immigration law, or is that what the federal government is supposed to do? I will err on the latter and that it is California that is the problem in all these examples, not every other state in the union.

Nevertheless, let us not forget that "Russia" somehow "hacked" the election to ensure that Donald Trump won the presidency, so why do they have a need to be so defensive about an investigation into the events of 2016? Strange, that.

I really don't understand why whenever I give a statement about Trump, people here either misread what I said, or they attack liberal/democratic candidates, when as I have repeated many times, I am neither a liberal or a democrat.

The simplest and most effective example is the prior administration and its peers, of which were very liberal Democrats. This is the same avenue of approach used by the Obama administration and its supporters post Bush administration. This is how people tend to argue or make their point, comparing the two and citing which did what better. It falls under the category of recency, but is also subject to the fact that historically, we did not know nearly as much about their operations as we do today. Information was not every hour of the day at lightning fast speed.

Furthermore, when you make a claim that the President of the United States is making "baseless" and "childish" accusations or is "an idiot", do be prepared to receive return fire at a high volume. I would think that this should be obvious by now in the current political climate, yet a statement as above leaves that to question. Additionally, you stated you voted for his competition and supported them over his campaign - do not be surprised that people will judge your personal values off of that decision, even if you are an independent. I am an independent myself and I wholeheartedly back the President, not just by obligation, but because I laid out my stand for him and his identity for America. No matter what I say or do, I will be judged by the fact alone I voted for Donald Trump despite the fact that I care nothing for political parties or allegiances and only care about the nation.

As for briefings, you do recognize and realize that the longer a meeting goes on and the more material it composes itself of, the less likely it is to be successful, no? There is a reason they use bullet formats, highlight subjects, refer to specific persons with their names and roles, provide written and slideshow or teleconference material, among many others. The fact that Donald Trump has seen himself this far in life, to the seat of the President of the most powerful nation on Earth, indicates to me that this is part of his system and cycle of operations, something the corporate world does in many cases its own. It is neither unusual or strange to be in a meeting and have specific blocks of business dedicated solely to you which are brought up in the agenda and overview with your name; repeating said name emphasizes it to the reader to better cement its role. Being brief, concise and to the point is critical. The only reason to be present throughout is to have an idea of tangential matters or details that might be brought up only in discussion, which is to knowingly also ignore that the briefings are not just for him alone.

I lost it at "chad and Tyrone" as if to get both the white and black demographic.

I would LIKE to think that him being a libertarian has nothing to do with his smug, entitled, and unrealistic world views to do with women, but there is probably a correlation.

What would it be called? Vaginas for Virgins? Pussy Provider? Free Peniscare?

California was once a beautiful state, unfortunate it has been tarnished so by its people. There were few reasons before over the past years to frequent it, let alone live there, and this only adds to the reason to avoid it. Only things of value left there for myself are some of my associates and then of course La Brea.

I remember when that Jordan Peterson guy first emerged when Canada passed a similar law regarding pronouns. He claimed that America would eventually pass pronoun laws too and although I was sympathetic to his situation I felt the very idea was preposterous. But here we are. Pronoun laws.

American's aren't looking for a handout, they are looking for a hand job.

Really kicking myself for not coming up with that last night ;)
