Sicboy, why can’t I throw that card right back at you?

You spent 8 years harping on anyone who criticized obama and co

You have spent the last 1.5 years criticizing people who are NOT criticizing trump

It’s a total change in philosophy and it bothers people who hear you constantly claim you are a “moderate, independent, etc”

Just think about if Michelle Obama had done something like this, how this board would not let it go for a million years. Yes, it's trivial, and I'm not losing sleep over it, but why is it a bad thing to expect the leaders of your nation to occasionally act with a little common sense? Or if they are trolling...........why? We're all adults here.



I don't even think you need to go that far

You can just say "LOL that was dumb" and move on

But the most servile partisans on both sides can't do it.

Perhaps. Unfortunately we'll never know because most adults in a position of power wouldn't be dumb enough to pull this.

But you were being hypothetical with you aboutism so technically it's hypoboutism.

She rules as first lady with an iron fist. That's some serious power she wields.

You seriiously think it's a good idea to troll while you're on a visit to these border kids?


Are you bastards really that callous?





Were you this mad when Peter Fonda was "just trolling" them and said they should throw their 12 year old kid into a cage with pedos?

Yep. He's really bad at trying to pretend to be in the middle of issues because it's clear he's pretty far left

So if she wanted to send a message directly to him why use this jacket to do it?

I don't think the 2 events are necessarily related

Nobody gave a frick about any of these kids 2 weeks ago.

So yes, it is perfectly okay to troll any sky screaming idiot who is suddenly concerned

For those saying there's no connection the jacket was $39. She's never worn $39 lipstick much less clothes. She knew what she was doing

The Trump's are ice cream to the media. Just too good to pass up. Even if she didn't wear it while on the ground, have at least a small bit of awareness. They are creating this news, not the media.


Should we bring up her outfit from the day before? If she wore it on the way down and didn't wear it during the visit, why do you care?

As long as you own it.. frankly, it's conduct that used to be considered beneath the office.


It also was unacceptable to wish that the 11 yo son of the POTUS be abused by a pedophile while locked in a cage and this wish be made by an individual acting in a commercial film being released in 2 days.....


SORRY.....NEW RULES

Imagine Michelle Obama having worn that same jacket in a similar circumstance. This board would have lost their damn minds.

So this board is the standard now?


What a low bar

A huge theme among the left during the obama years was faux outrage

Oh how the tables have turned

I cannot wait until a dem gets into office to use the “if trump did this you lost your mind” retort

Imagine if Michelle Obama traveled to the border without the jacket, but then murdered the kids there. Whoa. Talk about an outrage then.
