Millions are going to die?
I can't even do the mental gymnastics to get there.

I'll refrain from posting further on the matter since it causes so much heartburn in you. My apologies.

Climate change.
What he's doing with DACA will screw over hundreds of thousands of people.
Poor people without health care and social security will starve and/or die from lack of health.
Legitimization of violence against black/brown, muslim, lgbtq people.
Maybe go to war with someone.

Fuck Trump and fuck his cabinet and fuck people who fucking defend his policies and the years we will have to go through with the scars we'll get & the lives we'll lose along the way

Well yeah. Not in the short term but his stance on climate change is going to royally fuck a lot of people.

A president who will most likely focus on economic growth should not be considered the killer of millions. Many many people have to screw up to do that. Most importantly, it is not a US concern but a world concern. Our manufacturing standards are head and shoulders above other first world countries. Leading the way doesn't mean shooting yourself in the leg to make others feel good.

Really? Then you must not have been paying attention the last 8 years. The racist in this country had Mary Lou Retton in their mind.

Trump isn't evil and it's wrong for you to take the Lord's name in vain...

Surely you are trolling at this point. By the way, you still haven't answered why it's sensationalist to call Kris Kosbach's actions/comments racist. Wanna get on that anytime soon?

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.

The hell does any of this mean? This is just a rambling string of passing the buck.
 
For all those that said. It won't be that bad, seriously he won't do half the stuff he said he would. Ive got some choice words

Who's next? Reincarnated goerbels and himler?

We are 2 fucking days in. They are not even pretending or hiding their intentions like they used to. It's all out in the open. And thier proud about it

Two of my supervisors have been celebrating this news specifically for his policies. I think tomorrow I may quit my job.

They are still laughing.

Thanks mods for the title change, I didn't know how to word it properly because of the Daily Kos article.

Not trolling. I love lots of humor... Even very, very dark humor, but I don't approve of sacrilege.

You get offended about someone saying jesus christ on an Internet forum but voted for Donald Trump.

You're either trolling or everything wrong with humanity.

Did they riot in the streets?

Did Obama put a clearly racist POS on his staff? Your reach to try and equate these two things is fucking OUTRAGEOUS.


You guys are really something else with this shit. Fingers in ears while we post pictures of this guy speaking for White Supremacy groups... Un fucking real.

Oh of course. Jump in the thread and ask if they rioted in the streets, THEN WHEN ITS PROVEN THEY DID! Suddenly you don't want to or cant talk about it anymore.

Typical.

You approve of a man despite the fact that he defiles himself with what comes from his mouth, and lies about his love of Scripture.

You entered a thread to defend a man who would never accept the Good Samaritan, as he was one of those suspicious foreign minorities.

Yeah I'm not surprised anymore. He's going to make sure to grab every extreme racist hateful person on the planet with a suit and give them a job in the White House.

Here's a good thread on what could happen if Trump and his minions get rid of ACA
https://twitter.com/Nash076/status/796627875881426944

So yeah, even with the rise of hate crimes (in large part thanks to Trump's rhetoric) which will lead the rise in deaths of minorities and some journalists that will be profiting off the death of minorities and capitalize on their pain. You have a lot of poverty stricken areas and people who cannot save money for healthcare that will hit them very, very hard. ACA despite its issues, has saved millions of lives. With it gone, we're likely to go backwards.

So yes, millions could die.

I vaguely remember that law going through and just brushed up on it via Wikipedia. It's not racist, and there are provisions in the law that forbid someone's status being questioned based on race or national origin. The questioning also needs to be incident to a lawful stop, detention or arrest. If 8%+ of your state's population was living there illegally you might think about doing something about it too.

History shows that when you give law enforcement more latitude they tend to widen their swing the most on minorities. Saying HB1070 isn't racist is like saying Stop and Frisk isn't racist.

God save us from those illegals wrecking our country, right?

Oh wow, I... I might be tired.

I read the topic title twice over and thought Trump hired whoever did the programming for "Papers, Please."
 
This is facism, right?

He's setting up his team to go full facist. I'm half expecting at some point that various parts of the Constitution will be thrown out and the police force/guard/military used to tamp down dissent.
