&lt;i&gt;Crack whore says &quot;Whine, whine, whine, cry cry cry....&quot; &lt;/i&gt;

I believe you&#039;ve posted a plethora of comments about your life as a whore. Enough already... &lt;b&gt;TMI&lt;/b&gt;.

&lt;i&gt;And it wasn&#039;t just me who was so pleased you were gone..  &lt;/i&gt;

I was never &quot;gone,&quot; moron, and I think you might have me confused with the poster named &quot;Michale&quot; if you&#039;re looking for someone who needs the approval of other posters and feels the need to turn near everything into a competition because he seems to think that someone has to lose in order for him to &quot;win.&quot;

That guy doesn&#039;t quite understand the concept that dishing it out near daily while whining incessantly about his perpetual aggrievement and victimhood makes him the biggest loser of all: A poster who brags about running other posters away who is nothing more than a whiny little snitch seeking to control another man&#039;s blog through censorship and attempts at bullying and promulgating rules for other posters that he ignores himself. 

&lt;i&gt;So why don&#039;t you take a hint, Welfare Girl... &lt;/i&gt;

Why don&#039;t you stop attempting to run posters away from another man&#039;s blog, Chicken Shit? Balthasar is exactly right about you: You reek with the stench of desperation and fear. #Pathetic</description>

&lt;i&gt;Welfare Girl says &quot;whine whine whine whine&quot; &lt;/i&gt;

Your self-loathing is again duly noted; however, I am not the poster who is perpetually aggrieved and screaming what a victim I am and running away whining and stating I will not come back as long as another poster is here and then breaking my promise and coming back with promulgated rules for the author of the blog and giving out my personal email in order to plot with another poster how to censor comments and have people banned off the board who don&#039;t toe your line, even when neither of you won&#039;t toe your own line and feel free to comment in colorful language and hurl insults and orders and pass judgments on whomever you please. Neither you nor Elizabeth Miller scare me in the least; although, I am pleasantly surprised that you haven&#039;t blamed me yet for you being forced to divulge your email to anyone with a keyboard and an Internet connection in order that you and EM could get together off the board and plan your censorship efforts... so there&#039;s that. 

I wasn&#039;t &quot;gone&quot; a month ago... just reading and not commenting for awhile. Yes, I read your comments regarding how pleased you were that I was &quot;gone,&quot; and laughed out loud that I obviously live rent free in your head, but your characterization that people &quot;commented how nice things were in your absence&quot; leaves out the fact that it was you doing the commenting and obsessing. Even when you believed I was &quot;gone,&quot; you couldn&#039;t contain your incessant whining and perpetual aggrievement and victimhood, and I laughed out loud about that for quite a few hours. #Pathetic

&lt;i&gt;So, once again, you are full of shit and everyone here knows it... &lt;/i&gt;

I can see your head has not been removed from Trump&#039;s ass. Yes, everyone here seems to know that Trump is full of shit with the singular exception of yourself. Perhaps your torso is simply too far up Trump&#039;s &quot;shithole&quot; [his term] to adequately assess the reality of the obvious situation. Pity. :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;If you REALLY want to support the author of this blog, you would cease with the personal attacks and name-calling against his users... &lt;/i&gt;

Said the guy who bragged about running off multiple posters and promised I&#039;d be next. 

&lt;i&gt;But you ONLY want to support your hate-filled and intolerant bigotry.... &lt;/i&gt;

You have no idea what I want, and your incessant fake quotes and putting words in people&#039;s mouths and claiming to know what they want and what they think is just part and parcel of your standard operational modus operandi and regular bullshit that no one forces you to spew near daily and direct it toward the group collectively and certain posters individually.

It&#039;s your standard handiwork; the very least you could do is own it. You didn&#039;t mind owning it when you were bragging about how you successfully ran off multiple other posters and promised you&#039;d do it to me, and it will surprise no one that regularly reads this blog that your memory is suddenly selective. It would be funny if it wasn&#039;t so pathetic. :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;This author&#039;s blog was a REALLY nice place to discuss things.. When you were gone.. &lt;/i&gt;

You keep whining incessantly about when I was &quot;gone.&quot; Since the day I found this blog, I&#039;ve never been &quot;gone.&quot; I did stop commenting for awhile in response to my significant other betting me that I couldn&#039;t read and not comment. I won that bet and the vehicle of my choice... which naturally would be a tank, but I finally recently decided I would settle for a Honda Pilot Elite AWD. 

I definitely remember reading the blog near daily, and you were the same jerk as you ever were. You refer to many other posters on this blog using equally moronic names like Prozac Girl and various other assorted things that regular readers are aware of that you seem to have conveniently forgotten. My &quot;reading yet not responding&quot; had zero effect on your standard operational bullshit and predictable repetitive spew, of course. 

You should work on your memory and reading comprehension problems, snowflake, and stop blaming your standard operational name calling on somebody else. I can assure you that it will surprise no one that you&#039;re blaming somebody else for the words coming out of your own keyboard and your perpetual grievance and whining about you being a victim and the insinuation that somebody else that somebody else is the cause of your regular repertoire of near daily spewage. :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;The simple fact is, this place is better without you, Welfare Girl.. &lt;/i&gt;

Another badge of honor from Michale! Thank you so much, moron; my collection grows ever larger by the day. 

Pity you have such little self-awareness and lack of memory that you seem to have completely forgotten about the multiple times you&#039;ve bragged about the multiple posters you&#039;ve run off from this blog while promising I would be no different than them. 

You can be certain that I will continue to support the author of this blog while I am quite certain you will continue to troll his readers and attempt to run them off in similar fashion as before... all while whining incessantly about your perpetual grievance and victimization. Boo effing hoo, snowflake. :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;No, in your case, they are simply facts.. &lt;/i&gt;

Like I said, call me whatever you want. It lets everyone know how thin skinned you are and that you&#039;re a snowflake who can sure dish it out but can&#039;t take it.

The words with which you choose to label others is an obvious exercise in self-denigration, and Neil is exactly right. You obviously think that in order for you to win, somebody else has to lose. You pontificate near daily from your shithole spewing your favorite epithets every chance you get while whining about personal attacks... ignorant in your belief that the use of the collective &quot;ya&#039;all&quot; in order to denigrate others somehow absolves you of your own stench. 

One would think a little self-awareness might finally dawn on you, but there you are... still mired in your ignorance and complete lack of introspection. 

You think obesity is an insult? 
Check your pictures. 

You think denigrating the poor is an insult? 
Check your trailer. 

You think being a whore is an insult? 
Check your posts about your whoring. 

Your perpetual grievance, self-loathing, and constant whiny victimhood and blaming others for it is glaringly obvious... to everyone but yourself. Check your mirror. Figure it out already. :)</description>

		<description>I&#039;m fine, moron. Call me whatever you wish if it makes you feel better about yourself. *laughs* 

But I will state what is obvious to everyone else on the blog who have the critical thinking skills that you are so obviously and demonstrably lacking: 

An uneducated self-described knuckle-dragger living in a doublewide in Shithole, Florida who has posted pictures of himself and his visible multiple chins and demonstrable girth and bragged several times about his life as a &quot;player&quot; whose favorite insults toward posters are regarding welfare, obesity, and whores is broadcasting in no uncertain terms to everyone else that he is a miserable wretch of a human who obviously hates himself.

Let me put it in terms even a moron could understand: So you think welfare, obesity, and whore are insults? Have you any self-awareness whatsoever? :)</description>

105, 106

&lt;i&gt;Once again, the difference between now and when she was gone from this community is staggering and very telling.. &lt;/i&gt;

Translation: Michale is a &quot;wussy&quot; with thin skin who can sure dish it out but can&#039;t quite take it. Pay no attention to all that lip service regarding &quot;freedom of speech&quot; because if the snowflake had gotten his wish, he would have instituted rules on CW&#039;s blog in order to censor those who disagree with him and call him on his ridiculous bullshit... not unlike the Orange Blowhole whose head his ass is lodged firmly inside is attempting to censor those who disagree with Trumple-Thin-Skin. 

&lt;i&gt;Still have that weight problem, eh Victoria??? &lt;/i&gt;

I&#039;ve never had a weight problem, but I do have an obvious observation and a question. A person such as yourself with such highly visible multiple chins and &quot;table muscle&quot; rolls demonstrating so much intolerance and bile about weight must truly be a person who hates himself. 

We&#039;ve likely all read the tales you posted on the board about you being a player: Are you and your wife still whores? :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;Actually, thinking about it, BOTH are applicable...

The fact is, ya&#039;all were completely clueless PRE and POST 2016 election..

And nothing has changed.. Most of ya&#039;all have just gotten nastier and more hateful... &lt;/i&gt;

Translation: Pay no attention to all the hate and bile that Michale spews daily and the ridiculous bullshit that he posts that insinuates a black man saying something nice about a white man two decades ago is somehow absolution in perpetuity for the words, deeds, and actions of the Orange Blowhole he worships who is a demonstrable traitor to America. #Helsinki Summit

Ya&#039;all should ignore all the myriad of other things he posts that are incorrect and ridiculous and be impressed that the moron called a 50/50 election in 2016. /sarcasm off

What is this pattern with the board troll where he keeps making asinine statements ad nauseam insinuating that one thing in history constitutes as unequivocal proof of something in perpetuity? 

Oh, right... it&#039;s &lt;b&gt;demonstrable and repetitive ignorance&lt;/b&gt;, and that also explains why no one else on the board does it. :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;DOH! How could I have forgotten that rule!? &lt;/i&gt;

*laughs* :)

&lt;i&gt;Trump supporters are so desperate to avoid the reality that they have backed a bigot and traitor. &lt;/i&gt;

It&#039;s a sad commentary on the voters of this country that they could be so gullible to fall for Trump&#039;s cons before and after the election. Donald Trump has a large portion of the GOP and Trump cultists singing the praises of Vladimir Putin and Russians who attacked the United States of America and continue to do so. They&#039;re convinced that Trump is their hero because he whips them into a frenzy of fear of the &quot;others&quot; with their fake propaganda, false equivalency, and the stoking of the perpetual grievance and white identity politics. Pay no attention to the fact that the GOP has abandoned political ideals and cannot govern, the message is &quot;be afraid.&quot; The Trump era shines a klieg light on the ignorance of a large portion of the American electorate, but there will be a turning point, Russ... there always is. :)

It&#039;s instructive to remember how those in denial in the Nixon era were fully behind Tricky Dick and his identical cries of &quot;witch hunt&quot; and vilification of the press right up until they weren&#039;t, and suddenly for quite awhile you couldn&#039;t find anyone who claimed to have voted for him. Having said all that, Nixon was lots of things, but even he wasn&#039;t a traitor to his country like Benedict Donald... but Trump too shall pass. :)</description>

C. R. Stucki
97

&lt;i&gt;Questioning why TIME could have designated Hitler &quot;Man of the year&quot; in 1938 implies ignorance of TIME&#039;s criteria for chosing &quot;Man of the Year&quot;. &lt;/i&gt;

What part of the term &quot;&lt;b&gt;sarcasm&lt;/b&gt;&quot; confused you, Stucki? I wasn&#039;t questioning why &lt;i&gt;Time&lt;/i&gt; chose Adolph as their &quot;Man of the Year,&quot; I was making a joke regarding the tendency of morons to use whatever means necessary to justify prejudice. 

Here&#039;s another example for you from Sarah Huckleberry Sanders [paraphrasing]: Donald Trump can&#039;t be a racist because Bill and Hillary Clinton attended his wedding. 

Don&#039;t you get it? It is ridiculous on its face to claim that a statement made by a black American politician made two decades ago is proof that someone/anyone isn&#039;t a racist... like anything nice a black person says about you is a magic inoculation forever and ever for a white recipient... but equally or even nicer words by a black person about another black person are scoffed at routinely by the very same people spewing this obvious nonsense because morons seem to &lt;b&gt;never&lt;/b&gt; think things through. It&#039;s equally silly to quote a &quot;Black American Pastor&quot; and serve it up as proof that someone/anyone isn&#039;t racist if a black pastor is of the opinion that he&#039;ll &quot;probably&quot; be &quot;the most pro-black,&quot; and it&#039;s infinitely ridiculous for the White House mouthpiece in pearls to insinuate that an appearance by Bill and Hillary Clinton&#039;s attendance at Trump&#039;s third wedding in 2005 signified plenary approval of the groom&#039;s character in every single respect before that time and in perpetuity. *laughs*

Sarah Sanders and Bill Clinton are both from the State of Arkansas and the Jim Crow South where avoiding any or all socializing with racists would be a tricky proposition indeed, and her father Mike Huckabee isn&#039;t exactly famous for promoting tolerance and diversity throughout Arkansas... quite the contrary, in fact. Anyway, regardless of upbringing or Arkansas or the South or anything else, it&#039;s patently ridiculous to claim that attendance at someone&#039;s wedding is some kind of lifetime endorsement or voucher for their character and about the stupidest words I&#039;ve heard uttered from the podium from the Briefing Room in the West Wing.

If you still don&#039;t understand what I meant, it&#039;s okay and makes you no different than the board troll using a black politician and a black preacher to somehow prove that the Orange Blowhole isn&#039;t a racist. I really should keep in mind that there is a ginormous percentage of right-wing dingbats and dumb butts who simply cannot understand sarcasm, nuance, or anything that requires critical thinking skills... or basic reasoning for that matter. :)</description>

		<description>CRS,

&lt;I&gt;What one&#039;s gotta wonder about Obama&#039;s Peace Prize is why wasn&#039;t it revoked/repo&#039;d, etc. after he began to assassinate people (by means of drone strikes) pretty much on a daily basis throughout his administration???&lt;/I&gt;

Yea, one DOES gotta wonder that..

Giving the Nobel Piece to Al Gore started the prize on the road to ignorance and irrelevant-ness...

The Piece prize going to Odumbo simply cemented that journey...</description>

&lt;I&gt; But, Russ... aren&#039;t you aware that if a black guy that&#039;s on the Trump payroll says something nice about Hair Dick-Tater, that absolves him from being a racist? &lt;/I&gt;

DOH!  How could I have forgotten that rule!?  Trump supporters are so desperate to avoid the reality that they have backed a bigot and traitor.</description>

		<description>Russ
91

&lt;i&gt;No, the fact that he makes discriminatory and prejudicial comments based on a person’s appearance is what makes him a racist...and a sexist, and an ageist.&lt;/i&gt;

But, Russ... aren&#039;t you aware that if a black guy that&#039;s on the Trump payroll says something nice about Hair Dick-Tater, that absolves him from being a racist?

It&#039;s the moron racism rule: You quote black people who say nice things about Your Orange Worship while referring to any other people of color such as him as &quot;scumbags.&quot; Duh! *wink*

Pay no attention to all that other stuff in Trump&#039;s history, that black pastor who was a crack user, drug dealer, car thief, was expelled from school for carrying a pistol and aspired to become a pimp said something nice about the guy whose ass Michale&#039;s head is firmly surrounded by; he&#039;d be calling him a &quot;scumbag&quot; otherwise.  

And Russ, remember what Michale said: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;How could Trump be a racist when Jesse Jackson himself honored Trump for a &quot;LIFE TIME OF SERVICE TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY&quot;??? ~ Michale&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I know, right?! How could Adolf &quot;He Who Must Not Be Named&quot; be such a bad guy if Time made him &quot;Man of the Year&quot; in 1938? /sarcasm off

How do these morons figure a few words of Jesse Jackson erases a lifetime of Trump&#039;s actions? Jackson said some good things about Trump in speeches in the late 1990s and thanked him for working with Bill Clinton on the &quot;Wall Street Project.&quot; Any Trump cultist and/or right-wing moron who thinks a speech by a black man somehow inoculates a person for a lifetime of racial slurs and bigotry has got some serious &quot;denial&quot; issues. :)</description>

What one&#039;s gotta wonder about Obama&#039;s Peace Prize is why wasn&#039;t it revoked/repo&#039;d, etc. after he began to assassinate people (by means of drone strikes) pretty much on a daily basis throughout his administration???</description>

&lt;i&gt;You can&#039;t beat Trump at the only game he knows. &lt;/i&gt;

The good news is: Insulting people is not the only game Trump knows, and I can assure you he can be beat. Ask those associates of his who have plead guilty and currently spending time in prison or awaiting sentencing for their crimes and more coming.

		<description>&lt;i&gt; The reason Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize was due to a big sigh of relief that the Republicans had been kicked out of power and normal people,

So, you agree that the Nobel was awarded SOLELY for political reasons and had absolutely NO bearing on merit.. &lt;/I&gt;

No, Obama won the Nobel Prize because of what he, a black man, symbolized to people all over the world by becoming the President of the United States.  Parents told their children that they could one day be president if they worked hard; but until Obama ran, for children of color, those were just words.   Obama ran an incredible campaign that beat out two opponents with far more political experience - Hillary Clinton and John McCain.  His campaign gave hope to people all over the world that they could rise above their circumstances to achieve their goals.  People all over the world were looking to him as the leader of the free world.  

His winning of the Nobel prize had nothing to do with being Democrat or Republican.  It wasn’t politically motivated in a partisan way.  

From the official Nobel announcement:&lt;b&gt;

“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population.

For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world’s leading spokesman. The Committee endorses Obama’s appeal that “Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges.”

		<description>Interesting report on income from Pew. Median real income has not moved significantly for 40 years. If this were applied evenly it would be bad. But what makes it worse is that the top 10% have seen fairly strong real income growth, but most people have flat lined or dropped.

As many of you know I&#039;m a bit over the top regarding numbers and track every cent I&#039;ve spent since the mid 1990&#039;s when Quicken first appeared. I have a spreadsheet where I put he numbers from Quicken in and then adjust for inflation (yes, I know CRS). It is surprising how much inflation impacts prices. For example an item that cost $100 in 2000 would cost $144 today all other things being equal. So if I was earning $100,000 in 2000, I&#039;d need to be earning $144,000 today just to maintain the same purchasing power.

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Once we are run by adults again we&#039;ll be invited back to the adult table and the mess Trump has left at the kiddies&#039; table will be cleaned up and thrown away.&lt;/I&gt;

Cleaning up after Trump may turn out to be a Herculean effort, of Augean Stables fame.

And, that&#039;s still assuming the adult table on the world stage will be intact. Given the existential threats we and our planet face, let alone with the climate change denier-in-chief at the helm for too long, it is not at all clear that the mess can be cleaned up at all.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;My point was simply that it will be very hard to &quot;snap back to normality&quot; if Trump wins another term.&lt;/i&gt;

I don&#039;t think so - the rest of the World is just ignoring the U.S. now and building their own plans - these plans are normal plans (e.g. free trade agreements between the E.U. and Japan, etc.).

Once we are run by adults again we&#039;ll be invited back to the adult table and the mess Trump has left at the kiddies&#039; table will be cleaned up and thrown away.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;How many names do ya&#039;all call Trump and Republicans on a DAILY basis??&lt;/i&gt;

I&#039;m not running for President. And don&#039;t intend to. We hold our leaders to a higher standard - the standard we behave around our kids to teach them adult behavior.

But we are allowed to let of steam and have some fun on social media, especially as my family would probably choose starting at linoleum over engaging in political discussions on a blog.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;What happens if Trump is re-elected, Neil?&lt;/i&gt;

You will note that I didn&#039;t say &quot;in 2020&quot; - could be 2020, could be 2024 ... but probably 2020. America is fed up of this clown.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;This should scare you. The people who look and sound like people you want your kids to emulate are running as Democrats, and the right, fairly or not, is over represented by Trump&#039;s abhorrent behavior - e.g. called in woman a &quot;dog&quot;, making fun of a disabled reporter, etc. etc. etc.&lt;/I&gt;

How many names do ya&#039;all call Trump and Republicans on a DAILY basis??

Ya&#039;all are guilty of everything you accuse Trump of...

Name-calling..  Bigotry..  all of it...

And yes, the Democrat Party is exactly as I characterized it..

That will become obvious to you once the GOP retains the House and Senate..

I wonder..  What will be your excuse then??  :D

&lt;I&gt;The reason Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize was due to a big sigh of relief that the Republicans had been kicked out of power and normal people, &lt;/I&gt;

So, you agree that the Nobel was awarded SOLELY for political reasons and had absolutely NO bearing on merit..

I am glad to see you concede that...</description>

Yes, that was a little joke. Heh.</description>

		<description>Can America and Planet Earth survive another term?

And, what will happen in the rest of the world during another Trump term?

It won&#039;t be easy to get things back on track, if it even will be possible.

Democrats must choose wisely in 2020.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;he has to have all that it takes to set the country on a better course, domestically and internationally.&lt;/i&gt;

Firstly, &quot;he or she has to have ...&quot;

Secondly there will be a snap back to normality as soon as the Trump is gone. Our allies will pick up the phone and talk to us and work with us. We&#039;ll wind down the nonsense trade war, re-affirm NATO, work to get a good deal back in place with Iran, isolate Russia with help from Europe and China.

The reason Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize was due to a big sigh of relief that the Republicans had been kicked out of power and normal people, not wingnuts like Bolton and Cheney were back in power. The awards waiting Trump&#039;s replacement will probably include an Oscar, a Pulitzer, obviously a Nobel, a Grammy, a Bammy, and the yellow jersey of the Tour de France.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;That&#039;s today&#039;s Democrat Party.&lt;/i&gt;

That is what you want to believe is today&#039;s Democratic Party because it offers you a target rich environment.

But re-read CWs analysis of the primaries - it is decent men and women (and in one case both) that are succeeding.

This should scare you. The people who look and sound like people you want your kids to emulate are running as Democrats, and the right, fairly or not, is over represented by Trump&#039;s abhorrent behavior - e.g. called in woman a &quot;dog&quot;, making fun of a disabled reporter, etc. etc. etc.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;You never did really appreciate who Biden is and what he has to offer, Michale.&lt;/I&gt;

Au contraire...

I am on record as appreciating Biden and saying he was 100 times the candidate that Hillary was...

Granted, that last part doesn&#039;t say very much...  *I* am 100 times the candidate that Hillary was..  :D

But I like Biden...  The problem is he is the last of the old school gentleman Democrats...

The New Democrats have no use for an honorable guy like Biden... Today&#039;s Democrats are your Avanatis and your Hodgkisons and your antifas...

That&#039;s today&#039;s Democrat Party...

Sad to say...</description>

		<description>Let me rephrase …

If Biden runs and wins the nomination and beats Trump, then THAT is what would make me truly happy.

I still believe that Biden is the Democrat with the best chance of beating Trump. And, he won&#039;t have to insult the president and play Trump&#039;s game to do it. 

He won&#039;t need Avanati, either.</description>

		<description>You never did really appreciate who Biden is and what he has to offer, Michale. 

And, I know you have plenty of company, a good portion of your country, in fact, is with you along with the vast majority of the media.

I still hope he decides to run because that would really and truly make me happy.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Can&#039;t people get sick without having a health problem?&lt;/I&gt;

Of course.. But, at Biden&#039;s advanced age, it&#039;s possible, even likely, that it&#039;s indicative..

Imagine if, in the midst of campaigning, Biden can&#039;t travel...

It would be Hillary Clinton&#039;s 9/11 collapse all over again..

Don&#039;t get me wrong.  I would LOVE to see Biden run..

The Demcorat Party..  The Party of Old White Guys   :D</description>

		<description>Michale,

Can&#039;t people get sick without having a health problem?

You know, Biden has been travelling the country for the last many months on his Promise Tour.

Of course, he gets little media coverage; and if he does get any, it&#039;s the old asinine Biden storyline … :(</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;It was an interesting discussion, I think he went overboard, and he couldn&#039;t explain why 1/3 of Trump supporters make $50-$100K and another third make over $100K - in fact affluent white America voted for Trump - why are people driving around in BMWs feeling &quot;looked down on&quot;?&lt;/I&gt;

Suppose maybe how Democrats demonize and attack those Americans who are well off has anything to do with it???

		<description>&lt;i&gt;It is not possible to communicate an intelligent and inspiring position that you will represent ordinary citizens while you are financing your campaign with Big Money (see recent reversal on fossil fuel money) and expect people to believe you.&lt;/i&gt;

I think you are mixing up credibility with entertainment.

For example, I&#039;m highly entertained by Batman, but I don&#039;t think he is a credible solution to crime.

Trump, for me, was as credible as Batman, but a lot of people want to believe in Batman, so ignore reality because Trump told them what they wanted to hear.

He has on idea how to achieve the things he claimed (Mexico is going to pay for the wall, healthcare is going to be cheaper and better when he enacts his secret plan, etc.), but he lied to them in an entertaining way, and he snubbed their enemies.

I had a discussion last night with a friend who knows a lot more Trump supporters than I do. He said that the  overwhelming reason they pick Trump is because they feel &quot;they are being looked down on&quot;.

It was an interesting discussion, I think he went overboard, and he couldn&#039;t explain why 1/3 of Trump supporters make $50-$100K and another third make over $100K - in fact affluent white America voted for Trump - why are people driving around in BMWs feeling &quot;looked down on&quot;?

Yes.&lt;/I&gt;

OK great...

So, even if you ever find a FACT that proves President Trump uttered the word &#039;nigger&#039;, would you at all be interested in the context of this alleged event??</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;It isn&#039;t about me - I think Trump is a racist because of the balance of what he has said and his actions.&lt;/I&gt;

Yes.. You THINK Trump is a racist because of your spin of his statements and his actions..

But his ACTIONS are being honored by black Americans for a LIFETIME OF SERVICE to black Americans..

Do you factor THAT into what you &quot;THINK&quot;???

No, you discard it because it doesn&#039;t support your agenda..

You SHOULD be basing your opinions on the facts.. But you are cherry picking your spin&#039;ed &quot;facts&quot; solely based on your opinions..</description>

		<description>Btw, there are many reasons why Hillary lost to none other than Trump. I just highlighted the most important one. 

You don&#039;t have to be an entertainer to deliver an inspiring message that will excite voters.

By 2020, I think we&#039;ll all be CRAVING inspiration from a presidential nominee.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Michale, you haven&#039;t answered the question, you&#039;ve only stated that it isn&#039;t possible that Trump is a racist.&lt;/I&gt;

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Hillary didn&#039;t have that and that is why she lost to none other than the likes of Donald J. Trump.&lt;/i&gt;

I&#039;m not sure I agree with that. I&#039;ll bet dollars to donuts that if I took Hillary&#039; 2016 positions and the 2020 candidate&#039;s positions most people would struggle to tell one from the other.

Hillary wasn&#039;t an entertainer, and that is the key to CW&#039;s argument - 2016 was all about the sizzle, and the Democrats need to appeal to emotions as well as the intellect.

This is why Anenatti is an interesting candidate - as CW says, he will ensure that the Democratic candidates are stress tested to deliver an emotional appeal to match his carnival-like performances and that will prepare them for the king of BS and carnies.</description>

		<description>Chris,

Joshua has it exactly right: &quot;&lt;b&gt;you don&#039;t have to insult someone to entertain your audience, just perform better.&lt;/b&gt;&quot;

The 2020 Democratic nominee for president will beat Trump with an intelligent and inspiring message that is effectively communicated and that doesn&#039;t insult the intelligence of voters.

Hillary didn&#039;t have that and that is why she lost to none other than the likes of Donald J. Trump.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;How do you reconcile your hysterical non-proven bullshit claim with these FACTS???&lt;/i&gt;

It isn&#039;t about me - I think Trump is a racist because of the balance of what he has said and his actions. But that isn&#039;t the point. The point is why you won&#039;t answer a simple yes/no question:

Will you call Trump a racist if he is on tape using the n-word?</description>

		<description>Michale, you haven&#039;t answered the question, you&#039;ve only stated that it isn&#039;t possible that Trump is a racist.

So I&#039;ll just ask the question again:

Will you call Trump a racist if he is on tape using the n-word?

Yes or no?</description>

		<description>Ahhhh...

So, it&#039;s your claim that a SINGLE utterance of the word &#039;nigger&#039; over President Trump&#039;s entire 70 years of life is relevant...

But the fact that Trump was HONORED by black Americans for a LIFETIME of service TO Black Americans..

The FACT that, as POTUS, President Trump has pushed black unemployment  to it&#039;s lowest point EVER...

NONE of that is relevant..

But an alleged SINGLE utterance of &quot;nigger&quot; in 70 years.

THAT is the ONLY relevance here..

Is THAT really your claim???

BBBWWWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I wish you could step outside yerself and view your claims with a clinical and objective eye..

You would see how utterly bigoted and ridiculous you sound...</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;How do you reconcile your hysterical non-proven bullshit claim with these FACTS???&lt;/i&gt;

Trump is like a fine whine: the bouquet of racism becomes more evident over time.

By the time Obama diced and sliced him with comedy, Trump&#039;s racism was evident by his birtherism, and didn&#039;t even have to be brought up. This is what whine connoisseurs call an &quot;undertaste&quot;.

But by the time Trump got the Presidency, the odeur of racism was unmistakable, a heady blend of lower class Queens bigotry mixed with overtones of upper class Manhattan snobbery. Not recommended for weak stomachs.

But like many uncorked quaffs, the longer it&#039;s exposed to the light, the more vinegary the whine has become. Eventually it will only be suitable for masking the smell of rotting red meat.</description>

		<description>Now that I HAVE answered your question, maybe you can answer mine..

How do you reconcile your claim that Trump is a racist with the FACT that Jesse Jackson honored Trump for a &quot;LIFETIME OF SERVICE&quot; to black Americans??

How do you reconcile your claim that Trump is a racist with the FACT that, under President Trump, black Americans&#039; unemployment is the LOWEST it has &lt;B&gt;***EVER***&lt;/B&gt; been???

How do you reconcile your hysterical non-proven bullshit claim with these FACTS???

Hmmmmmmmm????</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;This is just the latest line you are being fed to salve your panic over the midterms Michale.&lt;/I&gt;

Actually, that&#039;s the latest line from the head of the DNC..  :D

It was Perez who called Osceola-Cortez the &quot;future of the Democrat Party...&quot;

You lose..  AGAIN...  :D

&lt;I&gt;OK, I might have missed it. Just copy your reply and point to it with a link.&lt;/I&gt;

Or you could just refer back to the previous commentary where I answered your question ad nasuem..

I accept your apology...</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;But the damage is done. Ms. Ocasio-Cortez IS the new face of a the Democratic Party, whether the party elders like it or not.&lt;/i&gt;

This is just the latest line you are being fed to salve your panic over the midterms Michale.

If Ocasio-Cortez was so powerful then you&#039;d think that like-minded candidates would have swept the primaries. Unfortunately for this little fantasy, reality is very different. CW even wrote a column about it (http://www.chrisweigant.com/2018/08/08/primary-season-musings/).

Take a Ocasio-Cortez chill pill before your diaper needs changed.

Oh, and you are still ducking the question: &quot;Will you call Trump a racist if he is on tape using the n-word?&quot;</description>
