Protest at Chicago O'Hare video

It's happening. The cracks are beginning to widen imo. Let's see how long they last before someone breaks rank.

I've heard this before but I still want to believe. There has to be a breaking point.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Goddammit. Nearly choked up as soon as I read this.

The monsters that forced this horrendous EO through will just be like "Eh whatever" and then they'll blame the media.

This happened Thursday, before the EO.

 

[BronzeWolf]

This shows protests are working. Its only been a week.

They can only hold so much until some begin to crack. They will try to make Trump work through congress instead of EO. They will fail. Then they will crack.

It's going to take time, but protests need to keep going

I don't believe the trump regret feed. There couldn't have possibly been so many people who did not know who he was or what he stood for. He had coverage every second of the day for an entire year. People knew what they were buying.

Never underestimate people's capacity for stupidity.

 

[Kusagari]

I really don't think Ryan and the rest can take four years of this.

Sooner or later they'll crack.

GOPers tired of any chaos resulting from Trump's actions are more likely to double down on his authoritarian methods of securing "order" than actually growing a backbone and standing up for what's right.

Not sure how much I trust Ryan. Dude has a backbone of a wet noodle.

If it goes that way expect more of what we've already seen starting to appear. Laws against protesting.

Ryan won't say or do shit unless a fuck ton of Trump supporters inexplicably become ex-Trump supporters.

The White House next strategy ?

Oh my lord

I dare say this is absolutely fucking shameless even for Breitbart. Utterly vile.

Is this photoshop?

Nope. I googled it, won't link 'caused banned site (for a reason). It's real.

Ladies and gentleman true evil has entered the WH.

*shudders*

He's actually pulling the strings, so I'd put him ahead.

He's Trump's Cheney, essentially.

Only somehow worse. I never thought I would see a more evil man than Dick Cheney in the White House but Trump and Bannon sure destroyed that notion.

[legacyzero]

No it isn't happening.

We've been hearing this BS about infighting for months now.

If it hasn't stopped this from happening in the first place it won't stop anything now.

Those bastards gotta be reelected ya know. And if Trump pulls some shit that makes even THEM look bad to their base, that gives us 2018.

 

[Emerson]

I don't understand why people here still fail to understand that what all politicians fear most is losing their seat. GOP reps and senators are behind Trump for now because he won against the odds and they are afraid to upset his base. Very few of them actually support him. They didn't support him until he won.

If the public opinion continues to turn against him, there will be a breaking point where they will eventually scramble over each other to be against him as well. Yes, they are spineless, but not when it comes to defending their job.

 

[Red]

Look at Brexit. People do make votes of passion, routine, low information, or just based on hope that things can't get any worse. And I think both 2000 and 2016 show that moderates grow extra complacent when the economy is doing well.

Most of my conservative friends have been weirdly silent, though there is one guy having a daily crisis of faith as the hits keep coming.

I agree with you. But reading the comments on that feed, I can't believe that so many people would be so massively ill informed.

@realDonaldTrump I voted for you, you are a mistake! I've read your books, you are a hypocrite! #regret

@realDonaldTrump You have become a liar and I voted for u - u are creating a global mess.

@garymorgan3742 @FoxNews @KellyannePolls @realDonaldTrump i agree i'm ashamed that i fell for his bs and voted for him.

Like what bs? He's doing exactly what he said he would. He became a liar only after he was elected?? He's been consistent with all his campaign promises. His behavior hasn't changed in the slightest. What universe are these people in that they were on his wagon before and have now suddenly switched lanes?

Many people did not believe he'd actually do this stuff. "It's just campaign rhetoric." I know a lot of people in real life who believed that. Now they're shocked he's doing it.

Of course it's insane, and idiotic. But they exist.

What will really change (using Ryan as an example)
WI was ordered just the other day to re-draw the map by Nov. 1, because the other one was deemed unconstitutional. If and only if he loses the areas that give him 100% reelection ability will we see him start to act imo.

It will cause competition that is sorely lacking within my state.

The crazy thing is that many Iranians are actually GOP voters, kind of like Cubans. There's a strong possibility some of these greencard holders are family members of people who voted for Trump.

I think you'd be surprised how many Republicans voted for him thinking his more extreme, far-right stances and promises were just big talk in order to get that increasingly vocal chunk of the party on his side.

I understand that. It's the specific reasons some people are giving on that feed that are unbelievable. "I fell for his bs" makes no sense. He's doing all the things he promised! What is the bs? If you agreed with his agenda there should be nothing so far that would discourage you from supporting him. "He turned out to be a liar" is a bizarre flight of insanity. That's far different than "I never thought he'd actually do it!"

[BinaryPork2737]

Shut the hell up. These are all steps in the right direction. This is a slow and steady swell of dissatisfaction that needs to continue to grow. Stop discouraging people. We need more of what we saw tonight.

We do need more protests and legal challenges to what's happening, but we don't need this in-fighting. Frozenprince isn't discouraging anyone, he's being realistic about the people we're dealing with.

There are plenty of examples of Trump voters ignoring Trump's awful policies when they would negatively affect their own lives. See: Obamacare

"I didn't think he was serious about that!"

I suspect that there are a significant amount of people having second thoughts now that he's proving that he was serious about nearly everything.

This just pretty much guarantees that another terrorist attack will happen on us soil . ISIS would be laughing right now. Weaken us intellegience agencies , turn a huge amount of immigrants against the United States .

It's amazing how far the us have fallen in just a few short months.

At what point do you get a civil war or a military coup.

It's tied to a Colorado state senator's SuperPAC that was formed to stop Hillary. It's name? "Stop Hillary PAC." It's soliciting donations and has the following on its website:

Paid for by the Committee to Defend The President
A project of Stop Hillary PAC, not authorized by any candidate or candidates committee.

Speaking of which, I made a sign that said "Freedom of ALL religions" trying to imply freedom of religion isn't just for christians, and it wasn't until i got to the airport that I realized how bad that looks.

The most insane part is that ISIS didn't have to do anything.

The United States has went from disliked to outright hated overnight, all thanks to Trump/Bannon/Miller.

Are there really people out there that would turn on any candidate who did not fulfill every campaign promise within a week? I'm not trying to defend the trumpies here. I'm really having a hard time buying some of those reasons.

I mean, I can't pretend to know for sure. But these people factually exist, so all I can do is speculate.

Don't forget he had an awful lot of "day 1" promises he didn't meet. Specifically about healthcare.
