    Lol. Possibly as many who thought Hillary was operating a pedophile ring that kept child sex slaves in the basement of a Pizza parlor. Bwahahahahahahahahahahaa We don't know though, cuz Pizzagate believers were real and yours are hypothetical.

    Its all reality TV now. Go ahead, ask an academic how they can verify anything anymore, other than paying cold hard cash. If you want reality TV, its free, but freedom in the free world ain't cheap. Ask yourself why there is no neutral internet, why the Swiss or whoever have not created a free and open internet and a way to verify data in the public domain. The UN would like the job no doubt, but the US pays half their bills, and information is power. The average person is such a complete idiot, superstition only touches on all the misleading crap people feed themselves, because they've been encouraged to even fight with themselves, and have no clue how to share their words and play nice. Of course, every time I say that I get booted off websites.

    Search for philosophy websites, and the amount of sheer reality TV crap and argumentative little kids will astound you. They could not be more infantile and focused on ancient history and biases, denying any criticism of mainstream academic bullshit. The first philosophy website I ever hung out at, had to encourage all the trolls just to stay in business, while Google actually designs websites to encourage trolls and keep them under control. Artificial intelligence is the only thing that can save humanity from their own stupidity. Julian Assanges' mistake was in assuming the truth is serious business, when for the public it is lowbrow slapstick. Either laugh with the sinners or cry with the saints, but its empire baby and this train ain't stopping until she derails.

  3. Real? What, all 5 or 6 of them? That nonsense faded too fast to be taken seriously. It's old news.

    That nonsense persisted right up to the eve of the 2016 election and after, and it was more than 5 or 6. Pizzagate: Anatomy of a Fake News Scandal.
    'Pizzagate': The fake story that shows how conspiracy theories spread
    In fact, some of our Hip Forums posters either took it seriously or were among the trolls circulating the rumor. (I could name names but don't want to cause a fuss.) According to one poll, nearly half of registered Republicans believed it. And one North Carolina guy, stirred up by Alex Jones InfoWars, took it seriously enough to show up armed at the pizza parlor after the election demanding to see the basement dungeon.(The place had no basement).

    As a Brit, I was like 51% against Trump in the 2016 elections.
    Since then, of all the things I've read and seen from all sides of the fence so to speak, and considering he is in his 70's, and I'm from a patriot type of British family and have a patriot BF who all love the US. I hope Trump wins 2020, unless someone similar but more diplomatically modern yet not exactly politically correct comes along... yeah, doubt that's gonna happen!
    I'm not huge huge into politics especially US politics but I think Trump will be beaten into 2nd place in 2020.

    I hate politics. No one really seemed to care much or at all about it until political correctness really started hitting peoples freedom of speech at home, followed by the uprising of ISIS and the flooding of refugees into Europe, Brexit, Trump, now so-called right-wing politics are slowly taking over the EU, China/Russia/N.Korea cuddling up in bed together while we western nations are basically divided left vs right.
     
  6. Oh I have no doubt something like this has been happening for years. Hillary probably bathes in the blood of virgins while feasting on recycled baby parts.

    I just don't think the Clintons will ever get caught with pants down again.

    Imagine what you will. So far, no evidence. After how many years of Whitewater, Benghazi, etc., and all the Republicans could come up with for "lock er up" was using a private server for her emails, which Ivanka, Jared Kushner and others of Trump's staff also have done without raising an eyebrow.

    I see nothing here that cannot be fixed by simply depositing another 4 Trillion Dollars in Quantitative Easing. Jerome Powell to the rescue Wall Street can smell the new cash already !
    Nothing on Earth like 0% money to get ones blood flowing again.

    Donald Duck is drawing all the heat, and the risk of a backlash is so small it can't be measured. Its not his money making schemes that bother congress.
     
  10. I have to give the democrats a hearty hoo raaaa for coming up with a solution to the debates that eluded the republicans in 2016 and created the "little kids' table" stigma. Though I don't find that to be shocking given the usual modus of republicans (to climb to the top on the bodies of others). But just look at the 2 night lineup.

    I'd say it's going to be a great TWO NIGHTS to play Cheap Shots in the chat room!

    (I see a dog pile on night 2, Biden's getting a new asshole. Just LOOK at who they have flanking him. It's going to be glorious.)

  11. Now that I look at it, that first night is going to be epic, a complete pit of vipers. I only wonder if it will set the tone for night 2.

    Note there is only one Latino and one Asian out of twenty of them, and they are all dressed like lawyers on their way to church or chasing ambulances. My guess, is they will insist on suing their own government.
     
  13. For not being more inclusive?

    For all being Barbie and Ken, because that's what their constituents demand. They all look like they sell car insurance. In general, it never ceases to amaze me how much Americans all dress like they shop at JC Pennies. Crap sticks less often to the fabric.

    To all the Democrats who are reading this: please donate to Eric Swawell. He just needs 65k donors to give at least $1. It’ll be funny to have this pathetic bastard up on the debate stage. It’ll be like a left wing Jeb Bush.

  16. Looks like Squaw is pulling ahead of Bernie. Trump's lagging but where's his republican challenger?

    Bernie Sanders is the candidate the DNC is quietly working against. He's being crowded out by the presence of so many left of center candidates thus diluting his natural base of support clearing the way for Biden at the moment unless he falters. Then the DNC will quickly coalesce behind another alternative to Sanders.

    Bernie Sanders like him or not is the real deal and believes in what he says, he's not an opportunist like most politicians always scrambling to make sure they say just the right thing to any crowd they're speaking to if it's currently popular.

  18. Sounds a LOT like the Hillary plan. Are they handing Trump a 2nd term? Democrats need to coalesce, NOW.

  19. Yeah, they really are. Biden won't beat Trump, either. It's going to be 2016 all over again.
