Good job of netting a spectrum of Trump supporters, I think they got at least one of all the different types. There were one or two bullies, reveling in their new-found freedom. A couple of the I-don't-care-if-he-eats-babies-I'm-getting-more-money types. A few who are just plain stupid. And one or two not-Hillary morons.

Also note that none of the people were of color or visibly “non-mainstream.” This what happens when “America is great” (ie upper class whites score, everyone else is screwed).

Yeah, it is odd that none of them finished their thoughts by throwing in "...and he's a white guy!" I do have to admit they appear to be educated racists.

New York Times has really gone to shit since this election. Half their articles just discuss the average fuck face voter who will never change.

Another Branch Trumpvidian in action;

Quote

A Michigan man was arrested after allegedly threatening to shoot and kill CNN employees, WGCL-TV reported Monday.

"Fake news. I'm coming to gun you all down,” the man told a CNN operator, according to court documents obtained by WGCL-TV.

He allegedly later called CNN again, saying, "I'm smarter than you. More powerful than you. I have more guns than you. More manpower. Your cast is about to get gunned down in a matter of hours."

"I am coming to Georgia right now to go to the CNN headquarters to f---ing gun every single last one of you,” he said.

If this isn't the clearest example yet of fuck face inciting violence against others I don't know what is.

An Indiana church that stood up to fuck face got targeted by his groupies

Quote

An Indiana church was targeted by racist, homophobic vandals a day after hosting a “resistance” event tied to the one-year anniversary of President Donald Trump’s inauguration. 

Parishioners at Unitarian Universalist Church in West Lafayette, Indiana, arrived Sunday to discover two obscenity-filled banners tied to fences on the property.

One of the banners reportedly read, “Die Fucker, Orlando just like Los Vegas [sic],” and included the date Jan. 23, USA Today reports. 

The banner apparently referenced both the 2016 massacre of 49 people that targeted the LGBTQ community at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, as well as last year’s mass shooting at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas.

Like that old saying(paraphrased):  "It will be a good day when schools have all the money they need and the government has to hold a bake sale to buy their bombs."

I guess this is as good a place as any to put this, and I'm too lazy to start a new thread. Apologies if someone else has mentioned this before now.

Hey, everybody, good news! Vince McMahon is reviving the XFL! Settle down, I know you're all excited. Some of you may wonder what this has to do with politics. Hmm. Now this won't be your old XFL. No corny fake drama with scantily clad women and the hybrid wrestling-football.

This will be legitimate football. Sort of. Vince will make it easier to understand. I can't quit laughing. It will be shorter because someone has a short attention span? And of course, the players will all stand for the national anthem.

So will we make it through the weekend before Dumpy lauds this wonderful development? How will Dumpy interject himself into this fabulous business deal? Without getting his hand caught in the cookie jar.

"Christian" football, anyone?

I don't know what the XFL is, but it Chump likes it, I'm against it.

It's an alternative to the NFL. They tried this back in 2001, it only lasted one season.

I see that KFC has picked Reba McIntire to play Colonel Sanders:

It's not going over too well with some Trump fans:

I'm waiting for Trump to pick a side in the Great Chicken War of 2018. You know that some of his fans will have to quietly switch sides to go along with Dear Leader. :tw_joy:

Then this happened in Arizona;

Quote

Supporters of President Donald Trump singled out dark-skinned lawmakers, legislative staffers and children at the Capitol on Jan. 25 as they protested congressional efforts to pass immigration reform, according to staffers of the Arizona Legislature and two Democratic legislators.

But Lisette Flores and Selianna Robles, policy advisors for Senate Democrats, said they were yelled at when they walked from the Senate to the House lawn, directly passing the Trump supporters, to get lunch at a farmers market. Three white coworkers offered to escort Flores, Robles, and Democratic staffer Dora Ramirez back to their offices, Robles said.

“We’re walking back, and they start yelling again, ‘Get out of the country.’ At that point, they pointed to Lisette, called her an illegal, and said, ‘Get out, go back home!’” Robles said. “But they pointed at Jane (Ahern), who works for the House, and they said, ‘No, you can stay.’”

“I was born in California,” said Flores. “I’m obviously of Mexican descent, so I think in that group I’m the darkest one. Selianna and Dora, they’re light-skinned Latinos. So, I think probably that’s why they pointed at me out of a group of six.”

These fucksticks yelled at a Navajo lawmaker to get out of the country. 

I hate Fuck Face and his Fuck Stick supporters.  They can kiss my ass.

I wonder how these same people would react if the same reason was used to justify Obama being our 44th president?  :562479b0cbc9f_whistle1:

What I *love* about this latest stinky pile of piety on their parts is that they're essentially saying "It's God's fault, yep, he chose this guy so just roll with it. He'll let us know when we get to heaven why he picked an adulterous, lying, hateful bully to be our president." It's not their fault, even though they actually are responsible for it. Blame God. Of course God did not chose Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, oh no, God's a Republican. Jesus, on the other hand... Bad Jesus!

I live in Texas, and yesterday morning I had the news on. A commercial came on for Dan Patrick.  I almost threw up. I need something to throw at the TV when his ad comes on!

The article doesn't specify that she's a BT, but based on her actions, I believe she must be: "Gym teacher accused of assaulting student who wouldn’t stand for Pledge of Allegiance"

Spoiler

A 20-year veteran teacher is accused of assaulting a middle school student who refused to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance, the latest incident in which a protest over the flag has devolved into apparent violence.

The teacher is Karen Smith, who until recently taught physical education at Angevine Middle School, about 20 miles north of Denver. She couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.

Officers were called to the school around noon Thursday, the Denver Post reported. Neither the school nor the police released details, and the student’s name has not been released. No charges have been filed.

A school spokesman told the newspaper that the policy is to allow students to sit or stand during the pledge.

In a letter to families obtained by Denver CBS affiliate KCNC-TV, Principal Mike Medina told families that “we will have a substitute teacher working with some of our PE classes for the time being.”

He added that Smith had been placed on paid administrative leave and that the school was “working closely with our partners at the Lafayette Police Department.”

Protests involving the American flag have become a flash point in the last two years since then-NFL player Colin Kaepernick knelt during the national anthem to protest racial injustice.

His example was followed by other NFL players, athletes in other sports and countless people with similar stances.

Those who kneel see the act as a powerful, nonviolent way to protest racial injustice, particularly society’s inaction when police kill unarmed African Americans.

Critics say it is an unacceptable assault on the values and mores of the United States — and its most potent symbol. Others in this camp say the protests are a disrespectful slap in the face to veterans of all races who have fought or died for American freedoms.

The differences of opinion frequently boil over into the public sphere, debates that are always contentious and sometimes violent.

In October, a woman was recorded throwing her drink on two men who knelt during the national anthem at a Los Angeles Lakers game, according to the Daily Mail. “Excuse me, this is for the national anthem you pieces of s—,” she yelled as she tossed the beverage. “Disrespect our flag and our country, and that’s how we’ll react.”

The Long Island Diocese of Rockville Centre, which runs a Catholic school system, said in September that students who kneel during the anthem would face “serious disciplinary action,” according to the New York Times. Athletes who didn’t “stand in a respectful manner” could see reduced playing time or be kicked off the team.

In October, a Native American high school football player successfully sued a California school district, which required students and staff to stand and remove their hats when the anthem was played, according to Yahoo Sports.

“Students like our client who conscientiously carry their values and ideals with them cannot be silenced or directed on what to say or not say by their school in this manner,” Katie Traverso, an attorney for the student whose identity was not revealed in court documents, told the news organization.

Last year, President Trump injected himself into the kneeling controversy.

In a September speech in Alabama, President Trump called for NFL owners to suspend or fire any “son of a b—-” who doesn’t stand for the national anthem.

The remarks touched on an exposed nerve in a league where most of the players are black and most of the fans are white.

... < tweet from twitler >

As The Washington Post’s Cindy Boren wrote in November, the NFL doesn’t require its 1,600 players to stand. Owners, who met in October with players to discuss the issue, have declined to compel them to do so.

After Trump’s statements, NFL players — and in some cases owners, coaches and staff — engaged in a collective show of solidarity, standing with arms locked or kneeling or remaining in the locker room during the anthem.

I just saw that story myself and thought it's highly likely that she was a member of the Branch Trumpvidian crowd myself.  It sounds like something a BT would do, especially if the student was a minority student. 

And I'm not holding my breath for the school district to do the right thing here after giving her a long paid vacation.
