We're talking about the king of the birther conspiracists and people are losing their minds over a Mormon lady that doesn't want to sing for him. But she's the radicalized totalitarian.

Trump tweeted (of course) late on election night in 2012 that the election could not stand and there should be a March on DC.

The lady is clearly being a snowflake, but my God why do we care? The disingenuousness in some of the posturing on here is just funny.

For the singer, it is a moral issue, she wrote. "I only know I could never 'throw roses to Hitler.' And I certainly could never sing for him."


Good riddance.

She's probably the worst singer in the group and looking for an excuse to quit anyway.

If she's acting on her personal beliefs, I have no problem with that. Wait...that baker who refused to bake a cake for a gay wedding was acting on his personal beliefs, too, right? The libs are backing one stand, are against the other. Any guesses as to which they support?

You can support the bakers philosophically and still understand that they broke a state law. Or at least you should be able to.

Well that settles any doubt as to what the theme song will be. I wonder if he's got the Stones lined up to conclude the thing?

Could not stand on what basis? What was his beef?

I already answered that. On its own its a non story. As part of a series of similar actions aimed at Trump from leftist snowflakes across the nation, it's a story. If you can't see that you're being obtuse.

Who knows? I'm sure it was something about Kenyan Muslims etc.

But we're mad that private business owners aren't painting him on their buildings?

As I suspected, the tweet does not support your claim. There's absolutely zero context in that quote.

Does someone have to be mad to point out liberal hypocrisy? Please, I'd be mad 24/7/365. The truth is I ENJOY pointing out the shortcomings of the left. It's like a hobby. A very enjoyable, inexpensive hobby.

Cool. It's pretty easy. What's not so easy is looking with the same lens at the other side.

For your sake I hope Chicken doesn't decide to do away with the emoticons. You'd be hard pressed to make a point without them.

Fine, explain it to me. What is the context of the tweet?

What specifically was Trump addressing with that tweet?

I looked online and can find nothing that gives any context. So tell me.

Why do you play dumb so much? Did you look at the date? The time stamp? I already explained the context. Obama had literally just been reelected POTUS. That was Donald's response tweet. He felt it was a travesty and that "we" should march on DC because we "can't let this happen". It's pretty self explanatory. How is that any different a snowflake than some of these random people we keep hearing news about? The guy was literally the biggest Obama melter on the planet for 8 years.

Good on him for turning that into his own presidency. He and his supporters should understand that there will be some resistance. People will cry and moan and boycott. Just like he did.

If this is "some resistance", I seriously would hate to see what you think is a lot of resistance to a new president

What about an 8 year campaign to smear him by claiming he wasn't born where he was born? Would that fit the bill?

Crazy, late-middle-aged hysterical woman thinks Trump is a "fascist tyrant".

I turned on CNN for the first time in weeks. Their lead-off news story was this threads subject-as breaking news. They were so giddy reporting it. The other headline breaking news was, 'how dare Trump compliment Putin for not retaliating back on Obama's actions'.

They are pathetic...

On one hand you could believe CNN just doesn't get it; but I think they do get it. They are just protecting their progressive globalism and taking orders. They are State run media in collusion with democrats; and the democrats don't think most Americans have it figured out.

Wouldnt it be better to have performers that actually want to be there? Its beyond pathetic that entertainers are being threatened with loss of livelihood. What a sad inauguration. Having to use forced labor basically.


So you believe bakers, florists and photographers should have the right to refuse to serve a same sex wedding? After all, it would be better to have contractors who want to be there. And it would be beyond pathetic to threaten them with the loss of livelihood. It would be forced labor.

Alinsky's Rules for Radicals advocates fighting mainstream US culture by using its own rules against them. This is a widely used tactic and nobody uses it more than the Clintons. For example, whenever a Clinton is accused of wrongdoing, they counter with tons of oppo research showing that the GOP opponent is "just as bad."
