Well, that should lock up the college student vote for the Dems.

You'd think that, wouldn't you?  But no, they still intend to reenact 1968 at the convention.  The fuckers want Trump to win.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That's an interesting parallel I hadn't considered Raz.

So, I wonder how many on-the-fence US vets Trump converted to his side by claiming that the Presidential Medal of Freedom (mostly given to really major donors, with some cultural icons tossed in) is the "equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor but civilian version."  Note that he doesn't even know the name of the Medal of Honor. 

He then goes on to say that the PMoF is actually better: ""It's actually much better because everyone gets the Congressional Medal of Honor," Trump said. "They're soldiers. They're either in very bad shape because they've been hit so many times by bullets or they're dead."

How can any self-respecting vet vote for this guy who has zero respect for them?

Has always been something that was given to donors and cronies?  I looked at the wikipage and it has pictures of Obama giving it to Biden :rolleyes: and Biden giving it to Pelosi :rolleyes: .  I know Trump gave it to people who give him money :x

Trump gave it to Rush Limbaugh  :lol:

The Presidential Medal of Freedom is sort of like a knighthood. Something you give out to VIPs just for being VIPs. That is not to say plenty of Medal of Freedom winners were not awesome people with amazing achievements but that is not the standard or anything.

Yeah well...good luck with that. I don't think people will be as motivated as the 1968 protestors.

Also I think most Americans are pretty good at just ignoring the Israel-Palestine thing.

The Lincoln Project is making a series of attack ads they pay to air in Florida and New Jersey on Fox News and Golf Channel, to make sure Trump sees them.




And it worked, Trump has sent a ceased and desist letter to get it off the air:



Lol at this one :D

Adding on to what Raz raised in a different thread, protestors in Chicago are protesting for reproductive rights and LGBTQ rights, in addition to Palestine.  WTF are they doing at the Democratic convention??  :huh:

It is far safer to make demands to people who are already in favor of them.

I like how he spent years basically saying the Democrats were fascists and the worst people in existence. Then came back here and admitted that Trump was horrible and unfit to be President but he was still supporting him because the Democrats revealed how bad they really were in opposing him. I am still unsure how somebody would be as bad as what Hans had already characterized the Dems as being back in the Bush/Obama era.
