I'm still very confused on how trump is "far right"
It's a media narrative that's been pushed for 4 years. Trump isn't that far from Bill Clinton on the political spectrum

This isn't really apples to apples, regardless of political beliefs.

You have to be completely loyal to him to be in his circle and the second anyone fails to meet his expectation of them, he drops them.
This is not close to true and all you have to look at is all the people that have gone against him but still have jobs within his administration.
Why do you post things that are so easily proven false?

think most people saying that are pointing out the hypocrisy with how the antifa/blm rioters were dealt with compared to what's going on now.
Both are clearly fricking wrong, but only one side is getting called for it.

Destroying cities for absolutely no reason is actually worse than holding elected officials responsible, so I do in fact agree with you.

2 months of wild conspiracy pot-stirring that lead to this display today is less than ideal
i've already called out the CTs
hell I told those idiots on the poli board that they needed to get dirty and harvest a bunch of mail in votes. they wanted a ground game
they didn't anticipate just how much the DEMs were going to be able to harvest votes (mail in and otherwise)
if MIV is going to be widespread, Democracy is dead and democracy will thrive

I mean Biden is a centrist Democrat whose policies have shifted a bit more to the left. He will have his hands full trying to push back on the sjw part of the party though. I hope he can.
While I think he was the least extremist of the democrats running, what's scary is that he is surrounding himself with those in the party who hold the more progressive views. I was hoping that things in the senate would've stayed red so we could have 4 years of status quo, but Trump made sure that didn't happen with his bullshite.

Watch a Clinton/Gore campaign video from '92, it looks like it would be 2 conservatives from Alabama today

It's crazy for sure. Where were all of these condemnations from politicians and media during the BLM/Antifa riots? Nowhere to be seen. So much to hate about this country right now.
And it's a considerable problem when all roads lead to the left's game.
Destroying America's landmarks and foundations? Why yes, we love that.
Violence against police/military? Oh absolutely.
Turning brother against brother, disregarding laws? Right up our alley.
Conservatism is in trouble in this fight because it's allegedly the movement of laws, the Constitution, respect for authority, being neighborly, etc. All things that, if we abide by them, limit our ability to combat what's happening on the other side.

Man you come on here and egg on (I know you’re joking half the time) the same folks over the same stuff it seems like every day. What did you expect to happen
I would hope the responses would be better
there are still a handful of posters that I love debating/arguing with (they are the only reason why I still hang around the OT really)
but the poliboard keeps leaking more and more over here and those people are so boring to argue with
its just the same cliched responses over and over again

I can still condemn the media for how they clearly took a different narrative for the Floyd riots compared to today, while also thinking the all of these people are idiots for trying to throw their lives away for the dude on The Apprentice.
Stop playing the "whattabout" game.
Bad is bad. And this is bad.

He's basically JFK. He's not conservative by any means.
His niche was populism, mainly appealing to working class union types who are owned by the Democrat party anyway.

I mean come on. I voted for him twice, but the reality is that for 95% of people who enter Trump's circle you're immediately on the clock once you do.
Do you really believe everyone he demonized and pushed out were in the wrong? Isn't it overwhelmingly likely that he's a big part of the problem here?

Let’s get the OB going like old time again then

No, but my point still stands. You don't have to worship him or always go with him to remain employed in his administration.
