    Trump is the antithesis of that pussy Obama. The reasons why you guys hate Trump are the reasons we love him. He told Iran not to start shit, and when they did, he laid the wood. #MAGA

    You've seriously got to be kidding me. In literally any other country in the world, Sanders and Warren would be considered centrists. The Overton window has shifted so far to the right in this fucked

  • You love him because he's a career criminal and conman and has no idea what he's doing and is historically corrupt and is incapable of telling the truth and is a truly terrible human being? That's wei

The sack and immortal are such quality posters. If only surly could better recognize their greatness in posting, we would all be better off.

Okay, enough of trying to break this down into various quotes the editing process is a total fucking clusterfuck.

"There are a lot of us non-Democrats on Cloak Room that rally around simple point---President Trump is a lying piece of human fecal matter."

Bush I-"Read my lips, no new taxes."

Bush II-"Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction."

"And he's hurting the GOP"

Then why does he have an over 90% approval rating with Republicans?  The only GOP he is hurting are the establishment do-nothing parasites that have buried their heads into the Beltway muck like Mitt Romney.

"he's hurting the country"

Stock market at all time high, unemployment lowest in ages particularly among minorities, wage income increasing for the first time in over a decade.  If that is hurting the country then may I have another.

"and he's hurting the planet while he's taking 62 million easily manipulated morons down with him.  I'd look forward to laughing at the bewildered looks on the faces of his supporters when he's either removed from office, dies in office, or is defeated in November...while many more millions take the streets to celebrate his no longer being in office---but when the former Director of the CIA tells you he's worried there'll be mass shootings at those types of anti-Trump rallies if he's dead/defeated/removed...then my attitude has shifted from get the man out of office to placate his supporters for the time-being because we're gonna have to figure out what to do with many of them once he's gone."

And you are taking the CIA at it's word?  The same CIA that was plotting to spy on Trump's campaign, the same CIA that has produced endless propaganda and been behind many secretive regime changes around the world.  An agency with practically no oversight, who becomes belligerent at any attempt by any politician to reign in their power or drain their swamp.  Taking the CIA's word on anything involving Trump is like taking CNN's word on anything involving Trump.

"Most of you are smart enough to just pick up and move on, maybe support the next Republican, or whatever.  But a good 20-30 million, the truly afflicted among his base, they're gonna be a multi-generation issue for our country.  They'll make dealing homelessness or opioid addicts look like a cake-walk.  I hate big government more than you could possibly know, but we're gonna have to think about a setting up some kind of tracking system to watch what these morons do for the next several years.  When your boyhood hero, Trump, is long gone...it's his batshit base that worries me.  It even worries the FBI already.  It worries more serious people in very serious ways than I think you understand.  That's not hyperbole,"

That's actually the very definition of hyperbole.  And again your source is the FBI.  An agency that was actively spying on Trump before his election, and plotting against him the moment he won the election.  An agency that lied to FISA courts, manipulated 302 documents, withheld exculpatory evidence from the FISA courts and numerous other crimes and other ethics violations.  This is like the Hatfields claiming that the McCoys worry serious people in very serious ways.

 

If the Republican establishment is so superior to Trump then why was Trump able to win Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania in a presidential election?  Something the establishment hasn't been able to do since Bush in 1988.  I will tell you why.  For a span of around 25 years Republican presidential candidates were synonymous with bland and staleness.  Bush, Dole, more Bush, even more Bush, McCain, Romney--a menu more bland and less flavorful than Irish food.  First Bush was able to ride Reagan's coattails once to win some of those states and his son managed to eke out a couple of elections without them against equally bland and stale Democrats.  However demographics have changed and you now need some of these states.

The Republican establishment's issue with Trump is that he is not bland and stale.  Why in the hell do you think the Republican Party got the reputation and stereotype of being dominated by bland, stale, boring, old, white men?  The Republican establishment hates Trump because he has proven that you can no longer win elections by running the same kind of political campaign these fossils have been set on running since before the invention of FM radio.  He has escorted in their irrelevance in the political world and they detest him for this.  They have no one to blame but themselves for their lack of political evolution.

You, Jimmy, Bama Mee Maw and the 10 people that circle jerk on this board do it  every day 

BREAKING NEWS: Iranian protests grow in intensity as more effects of President Trump’s order to kill Iranian General emerge.

In other news, conservative trolls who had been in vegetative state for months collectively regain consciousness to proclaim ultimate victory against militant Islam, libtards.

Sadly, the remaining handful of Trumpists, the same who oddly believe that those disgusted by Trump are a mere handful, still scan the skies for some confirmation to feed their bias that they are the reps of true good.

It's been cloudy skies and fog for months, but, at last, a wee beam of sophistry shines squirts through like something you think is a fart that turns out to be a hot, thin stream of reeking brown.

Anybody against the killing of Gen. Soleimani must be an admirer of Soleimani and, therefore, aligned with Muslim terrorists who hate America.

It's like they found an overlooked bottle of GOP's Upchuck Amber Ale. They sniff it and gorge on the familiar taste they've cultivated for decades. There are real enemies out there! They're your fellow citizens. The only path to victory is we few virtuous brothers banding together with a vow of hate. Embrace sloganism! Embrace projection even though you don't understand what it is! It's a culture war for the soul you don't actually have!  Jump aboard morons and people willing to gain totally in the name of self and self alone!

Above all, remember that you're the tough guys and they're all fags. Giggle along as Rush comes up with clever names and speaks with a lisp to quote them! You're a realist with the interests of the USA ever at the top of your boldly unhidden agenda! 

A statue to you, you magnificent irony-deaf bastards!

Do you even “Hillary isn’t president” threads, bro?
Have you ever watched .1 seconds of a Trump tally? For Trump supporters to call out “groupthink” and “circle jerks” tells us that irony is dead, dismembered, and cremated.

Badge of honor IMO. However, as much jerking as I do on a given day, I guarantee you none of it is done in a circle.

If you keep at it long enough and persistent enough there is always the possibility you will be accused of being Swam's sock.  I look at it as the Cloak Room version of Quintan Tarantino winning an Oscar for best original screenplay for Pulp Fiction while being snubbed for best director.

*Quintin.  Quintan wrote Romance novels wherein the snotty upperclass blonde with a svelte body and expensive wardrobe was supplanted by the busty rosy-cheeked heroine who truly understood the brooding terse hero.

Yes, let's minimize the risk and blame their injuries on their own clumsiness and ignore the fact that some barracks took a direct hit. Had they not got out of there, they'd have been toast.

How about we hear what the soldiers who were present say?

You know this same guy, who is blaming soldiers for getting injured during a rocket attack, posts memes about how Democrats hate soldiers on his Facebook, and all of his white trash friends come and have a like/comment circle jerk.

 

 

 

The Iranians could have killed everyone at that base if they’d wanted to, because Trump assassinated their top general without bothering to determine whether our troops in the region that were in range of Iranian ballistic missiles had any fucking missile defenses. Thousands of American troops were defenseless and exposed because of Trump’s idiocy.

Soldiers deployed just to carry out the mission of defending themselves is a horrible mission.

Iran’s leader publicly called Trump a clown.  Are we starting a pool on when we attack Iran again?

this isn't the same WPH guy from years past, is he?  Anyway, agree with the statement, "yeah lets set up in a foreign nation to defend ourselves!" . If the local sand people hate us, they hate America!

ZERO seems about right.  When he previewed it as a major peace plan between two parties that [checks notes] didn't receive any input from or in any way involve one of the two parties in the negotiation and creation....it was DOA.  Fuck, it wasn't DOA.  It was never even a viable fetus.  It was an abomination from the moment of conception.  Something that could never live, and if it did live, would turn into something that no human could gaze upon without retching....

The whole point was to come up with a plan so outrageously awful that the Palestinians couldn't agree to it even if you put a gun to their head. Bibi of all people doesn't want a two state solution, he wants to be able to pretend that he tried but those unreasonable Palestinians just wouldn't agree, and that's why all of their land has to be annexed and they need to be thrown in camps or something worse.
