cr47t Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Striker, I agree with you that he's (probably) not being serious with what he says. Imo i'm taking seriously the fact that so many others take him seriously, and also that a lot people follow and support him seemingly blindly. (I am not directing this torwards WInter or any other specific YCMers, just to make that clear.) Also Raine, socialism ain't communism. Socialism advocates that the means of production, exchange, etc. should be handled by the community as a whole. From what I understand, communism advocates for different stuff, but I haven't informed myself enough on those details yet to explain it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryusei the Morning Star Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I admire he's not bound by funking PC and is willing to call sheet as it is. Illegals are a problem. Daesh is a problem. And he's liberal on issues that need to be dealt with liberally such as planned parenthood. He's everything I want policy wise except for the DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, yes, those 2 are problems and there are more, I think we can agree on that. I respect that you are a fan of his policies, but as a guy who disapproves of said policies, I would like to know why and how Trump's policies will fix the problems. ex. how is building a wall on the amerimexican border going to stop Mexican immigration when they can just make an underground tunnel? ex2. How would blocking all Muslims from entry block off IS when they have other loopholes? (ex. internet) Christie and Carson are still running ,remarkable.

It inhibits people from saying what needs to be said 2) I said I respect he has raised the problem and is passionate about fixing it. We need to do geological surveys as well and flood/collapse the tunnels (tunnel collapse>wall as I have said before) 3) True, but Social Media is cracking down a lot more on that and we don't need more infiltrators till we can firmly weed them all out. I really dislike how the media has made him to be a hitler 2.0 when all he said is halt till we know how to deal with the situation, something the congress has basically already done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epicmemesbro Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Voting for someone just because their politically correct is as ridiculous as wanting someone in power just because they are a woman/token minority. Might as well want Mel Gibson in power, he's one of the most politically incorrect people I know. As for PP, they can go receive funds from a non-government source.

Aerion Brightflame Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Why? So I should die of Cancer because you don't want stem cell research done? I thought you conservatives were supposed to be pro life Because part of stem cell research is Embryonic Stem cell research, which of course pro life would be against. The fact that a lot of people think all Stem Cell Research is embryonic just adds to why there's people against it. Pro Life also has very specific connotations, because it's generally in reference to abortions, not all forms of life. It's why you get a proportion of pro-lifers who are also pro capital punishment. I would also like to put forward the idea that Trump is most vocal about the two issues that are actually some of the least important in the election, namely illegals and Daesh. Because relative to the economic and political issues (And when both are put together) you have domestically, they are basically of no importance. In part because he wants to actually play around the media bias that is blowing them out of proportion. Which is very much an in-establishment idea.

Tom not to be a jabroni, but I was largely being Sarcastic/Rehtorical with that first part. I'm just questioning the logic behind the words pro-life when you pick and choose what life to save even though "all" life is sacred. Look at it this way, he's an outsider, he needs his traction first then he can start getting the issues out. If anyone would understand how to fix the economy it would be Donald. Let him secure the primary and we'll start getting into those issues. Till then it's only smart to focus on hot button issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerion Brightflame Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Trump just savaged Rubio. "Atleast Cruz tells reasonable lies, Rubio is low-life" ROFL Not like Rubio needed it, Christie did more than enough damage to him with the whole 'Can we dispell the myth that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing' robot moment. I would also say, it's not the companies that needs to or should be appealed to right now. Doing so it what created such wonderful things as the wealth gap in America, and this whole state where 10% own more than the rest of the 90%, politics should be moving towards the people not companies. Preferably before stuff like TTIP comes in which means that companies essentially would own Governments. That sort of wealth gap, and the society that created it is arguably the biggest source of societal tension, it's why money in politics has become one of the biggest issues of the election instead of foreign policy. And citing Trump as a by-product of societies anger towards the way things are means you have to acknowledge Sanders is a result of the same feelings; He wouldn't be running or doing as well as he is if people didn't have some desire to change the status quo. Because he's a 74 year old socialist running against a Clinton; The only way he does this well is if he has a message with wide appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
