EDIT: have a link: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/general/471672-european-politico-economics-qa-mega-thread?page=688 not giving a tldr because that discussion deserves to be read in its entirety | ||

Man, wouldn't that be terrible. Subjecting the Republicans to the same level of bullshit that they pulled on the Democrats. Darn. What a terrible thing. We should all play nice and get along. That worked so well from 2000-2008. Great stuff happened back then. | ||

Though I might have to amend my claims that LL is the threads Arron Burr. He is more of a Benedict Arnold. | ||

I'm ok with seeing this as a "what goes around comes around" especially considering that I don't particularly care for Sessions or Republicans in general. Sure, I would have wanted Democrats to show a moral high ground on any such issues of partisanship but that's not the world we live in - so "karma, bitch" is a close second. | ||

You know what the high ground gets you? A good view of how badly you are getting screwed over by people that are down in the dirt. | ||

Ofcourse its timed. But the Democrats didn't make Sessions have a 1 on 1 with the Russian ambassador, nor did they make him withhold it during his hearing. keep on hashtagging mate. I'm sure it will convince exactly 0 people. | ||

As I have tried to make clear, possibly unsuccessfully, I liked Trump, particularly on immigration. I voted for Trump. I am disgusted by lawmakers on both sides trying to score political points now when our country is facing one of the most severe crises in its history. Trump's Russia ties are of serious concern. Carter Page. Paul Manafort. Gen Flynn. Jeff Sessions. When the hell does this end? How deep does it go? Why is Trump so friendly towards Putin? What kind of kompromat does Putin have on Trump? Why is Trump, someone who doesn't shy from confrontation, unwilling to confront a Kremlin that refers to USA as its "Main Adversary" once again? (for you lefties, Putin would have had all illegal business conducted via Clinton's email server to blackmail her with, at minimum. Clinton sucks just as hard here.) | ||

He has been openly advocating to limit their ability to do their job from day one. Want to 100% make sure you will get ravaged by the press? Attack them. | ||

It got them control of both houses of congress for at least 8 years. And the white house. Seems like a winning plan to me. | ||

Those four are established facts. I know you struggle a lot with facts these days but not all of us are suffering from that particular handicap. | ||

Idk how much of it is "fakenews" if Fox is starting to report on it as well... (which idk why you hashtagged, trying to let your Russian friends find the thread?) http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/03/02/sessions-russian-ambassador-spoke-twice-during-presidential-campaign.html I mean, your own party is reporting on Sessions talking to Russians... which we all know that either fellow Trumpians don't mind becoming Russia 2.0 or just don't care at all, but I mean, when Fox calls it out, shouldn't that be a sign? Since they're "real news" | ||
