The same Arab Spring that you've been complaining about pretty much non stop since Libya went pear shaped?

Its just hawkeyes usual speel, ignore and claim ignorance, he will go away, works for me.
 
Did I know you over at A2K?

Yes, I said within 24 hours of the decision that the West entering that civil war was a mistake, and I was proven right, which is not unusual in the least.

However, a smart as I am I did not predict at the time that the Rebellion would take off as it has, would spread to most every part of the globe, would propel someone like Trump to take over one of the two parties that matter.... powered by the rebellion.

I don't think so......

Trump is exceedingly wrong for the position of president of the United States, as his conduct during this campaign season has shown. It reminds me of the old saying "be careful what you wish for---you just might get it."

Clearly that is a fantasy which great numbers of ELITE and those who still believe in the ELITE hold dear, but I dont see any evidence of it in reality.Remember that I am a member of the Rebellion, and I said that I wish in this case Trump would have given us the full on TRUMP TREATMENT....he held back.
 
It's almost as though somebody in the DNC says 'what could we do that would make Trump look like an uncaring, bigoted demagogue? I know, lets have the parents of a brave Muslim soldier killed defending this country get up and speak at the convention. Trump will immediately go on the attack like the racist asshole that he is.'

It's like they wrote the script for him.

You may be on to something, hopefully Hilldog can figure out which button to press on debate night so Trump exposes his true self, then this ugly election will be over.

I've seen plenty of evidence of it. So has pretty much everybody.

Electing somebody because of your own delusions of grandeur is a bad idea.
 
Many things Trump says go over my head, that one hit home, as it should do with all who have served. I have no problem reminding my fellow Vets of Trumps contempt for Sen McCains service.

The Vietnam service consisted of 6 deferments while banging models, a true American hero my ass.
IMHO, HRC is as crooked as hell. Trump would divide the country even more than it is now.

Alleged facts not in evidence, in in the second instance running counter to the testimony of the lone subject matter expert on HAWKEYE10.
 
I agree - and I'd just add, in my view, the identity politics the Democrats played on this one will likely irritate a lot of voters who were/are on the fence just as much as it satisfied the Hillary sycophants. Going out of their way to find Muslim parents who lost their son over a decade ago so they could present a "Muslims good, service to your country good" narrative when many believe Democrats have little respect for those who serve their country and bend over backwards not to offend Islamic terrorists, will be seen for what it is.

Has anybody thought that they made it a Muslim family just to taunt Trump? They had to know it would make him angry, and they were right.

All the Trumpeteers are crowing about His genius goosing the left. He sure got his chain pulled here.

And who is the lone expert? Yourself?


Frankly you wouldn't know.
 
Hillary's not stupid - she's scary smart, perhaps even more so than her Rhodes-scholar husband, as you'd realize if you weren't so wrapped up inside the right-wing echo chamber.

Oh, wait - I forgot! If somebody's both highly educated and really smart, he or she MUST be a left-winger and therefore can't be trusted, huh?

However, Trump's not stupid, either - it's just that he has no empathy, no understanding of what others go through. Why do you think that he's so thin-skinned, but doesn't grasp how badly he screws himself by insulting so many others? The man is a psychiatric basket case...but since he's not Hillary, y'all will vote for him no matter what, even if he - as he himself bragged - stood in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shot somebody. You'd still vote for him anyway.

Hillary's not stupid, she with her Clinton machine lost the election to a community organizer. That shows how stupid she is.

Any even mediocre student of Zen knows himself better than the vast majority of humans know themselves.


I am bored with myself, lets get back to the thread topic, MKay?
 
The left is looking for their 47% comment from Trump that resonates which is why they blow everything Trump says out of proportion.

I don't think this is it.

Team Clinton was actively working to create such, but with each passing hour it looks more and more like they failed.

Trump handled this poorly. Whether it was bait or not, he acted like an idiot. Clearly poor judgement.
 
Did Trump screw the pooch with his comments about Mr & Mrs Khan
Yes or no
No other pls explain option. A simple call using impartial judgement

I doubt it. The people that support him don't seem to care what he says, it doesn't affect their support for him. And the people who would be offended by his comments aren't the type who would vote for Trump in the first place.

Shocking :roll:

This may not be, but they'll get it eventually. Not biting At the bait is something Trump is incapable of doing.

Oh we listen and we care, but we both listen in a different way and care about different things. We dont hide anything though, those who do not understand us have to be either stupid or not trying...they are lacking empathy either because they cant or they wont.
 
That is not the question, the question is does having your sons life wasted in an ill conceived war in the Middle East give one standing to get up in prime time night 4 of the DNC to give the nation a lecture on the Constitutional rights of muslims. Does it give his words any more weight that anyone elses.

I say no.

But then again I am apposed to victim culture, that which is being used to justify this political volley, and is also being used to try to invalidate Trumps defense to this offense.

But where are the people? I know where the elite are but where are the people who will choose the next POTUS, how is this exchange going over with them? I dont know, I am waiting for more information. I know I found this stolen valor on the part of the parents offensive, this poor prioritizing by the parents, unconvincing.

This is what I said in a different thread:

A war that Trump originally supported, then backpedaling wildly claimed he never did so.

And there's no "stolen valor" going on either.

Just imagine if this is how he would act if President??
 
I was viciously attacked by Mr. Khan at the Democratic Convention. Am I not allowed to respond? Hillary voted for the Iraq war, not me!

Trump is getting better on this. I am convinced that he is trying to lay off "the war was a bad idea" theme because so many people dont want to let their heads go there, especially on the Right...this was his attempt to be a "Good Republican"

I say "**** IT, be TRUMP".

Good afternoon Rocket,

I'm sure you're right. The left is constantly manufacturing outrage they can manipulate. It's practically a cottage industry for them. Having an ass like Trump take the bait is simply gravy.

I don't think so. Trump supporters call illegal immigrants "migrants." I don't really think they have the capacity to understand the sacrifices of US Muslims.
So honestly only the left is up in arms about this.

Manufacturing outrage? The right is pretty good at that. They held 1564654564654 Benghazi witch hunt trials.
