Obama, Guns and 'The Untouchables' - FactCheck.org


That's just it, you have become utterly blind to everything Obama did wrong, you have purged it from your memory and it has to be proven and re-argued again and again and its just phony as hell.

No. I am saying that things he said and did, even that were wrong, that I might not agree with, are not comparable in nature to what Trump has said and done to others, to the disrespect Trump has shown.

Your video shows him saying something that is very much true, but that you find offensive because it truthfully states people are dependent on each other, that no one in our country has ever been successful without someone else.

And unlike Trump, he has the good grace to apologize or at least admit regret to what he said that even may have offended someone.

Also, here's that quote, in full.

"They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

So then it shouldn't be that hard to find the evidence of these things you are claiming, in context, and posting it here, in this thread, in order to compare them to what Trump has said, the disrespect Trump has shown in giving opponents insulting nicknames, calling people traitors or accusing them of treason for simply finding fault in things he is doing or being against things he does. Compare them to him insulting Sen. McCain or the Khan family. Him insisting that he knows more than the generals or that he is right about something proven wrong by NWS/NOAA, or that he believes Putin over our intelligence agencies. Him yelling at reporters or others during interviews or sitdowns with another world leader. Trump not understanding any sort of protocols when meeting with other world leaders, or just not caring. He even goes after fellow Republicans who dare to speak out against him or something he has done or said.

Sigh, whatever. Your burden of proof is unreachable. Argument to the stone rejected.

Proof provided, not one more insult of you. Not one damn more, you got it?

Lol. That's not "proof" of the same level of disrespect Trump has shown to people, not even close. It was mainly showing things Obama said that you simply don't agree with, not insults, not yelling specifically at others, not accusing people of being the enemy or traitors to our country simply for not agreeing with you or even for saying that you did something wrong that should be investigated.

It is when you try to claim that any disrespect Obama showed to others comes close to matching what Trump has done while President. You couldnt even find real evidence of him saying anything truly offensive towards another person, just a couple of general comments, one of which that was made during his campaign for the Dem nomination in 2008, not even as President.

Show where Obama has called others names or mocked other people. Yelled at reporters, accused others of being traitors.

2. tortured? Please.
3. I signed no such agreement. Did you?
a. LOL No.
4. He's a white male, progressives have been taking pot shots at white males for decades, why should Trump be any different.

TLDR; so many double standards, so little time. Politics ain't beanbag.

Odd, I as a white male, don't feel like I've ever had a pot shot taken at me.

What specifically do you refer to as pot shots?

Not playing this game. Identity politics is all about silencing certain groups. White males are one of those groups.

Prime example here. How dare then Gov Brewer pointing a finger at Obama. The usual media suspects said it was disrespectful and racist. The outrage in the media was off the rails. However, Pelosi pointing a finger at President Trump is the act of a patriot. You can't make this stuff up.

On Thursday, former Arizona Governor Jan Brewer questioned the double standard applied to conservative and progressive women after President Trump tweeted out a picture of Speaker Nancy Pelosi pointing her finger at him. Pelosi was praised by the mainstream media and progressive organizations, while only a few years ago, Brewer was excoriated for pointing her finger at President Obama.

The news media hails @SpeakerPelosi as a hero for pointing her finger at @POTUS @realDonaldTrump but when I stood up to @BarackObama I was vilified as rude and racist. Such Hypocrites! pic.twitter.com/banxxQp7F1

Seems to me that you haven't posited anything that backs up your contentions.

(See what I have bolded.)

Have you actually made it all up?

Good, you admit you are playing a game.
I was being serious about the specifics of pot shots taken at white males. Because I was not aware of them.
And it seems, neither are you.

I am not silenced in any fashion.

sorry you support a Twitter baby who can't get a loan from a US bank and his mommy and daddy had to bail him out so often.

But you seem really confused.
I am not playing a game. I asked you a direct question. What pot shots do you refer to.
You can not answer, as expected. It is your game. Game of fakeness.

Did Obama tweet the pic in an attempt to shame Brewer?

Never heard of toxic masculinity eh? Patriarchal culture? And on and on. Get your head out of the sand.

Real men don't whine on Twitter about a girl pointing a finger at them. Hell, it happens every day.

Donald Trump isn't a real man though so we should expect that. And he's supported by supposedly real men from the South and Midwest.

Real men don't whine in general. So I guess that cuts everyone in this entire thread, out of that spectrum.

Actually, there are massive differences in the amount that humans whine. One person might come home and whine about their boss once a year. Another person might whine every 14 minutes on Twitter.

It's important for Trump republicans to say that those 2 people are the exact same. It brings everyone down in the gutter with Donald Trump.

Wait, you think it's a pot shot to white males if a culture had been referred to as Patriarchal?
That is being overly sensitive, IMO.

Most every culture on earth so far has been a patriarchal culture. Has it not?

Begging the question. Make your point or don't but leading questions you already know the answers to won't get answered.

What pot shots, is not a leading question. That is asking for clarification on a statement, you made.
