It’s been a whole fucking year and he’s still on about the election…

This is a real statement by the President of the United States.

Now that the three basketball players are out of China and saved from years in jail, LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo, is unaccepting of what I did for his son and that shoplifting is no big deal. I should have left them in jail!

I’ll bet Trump didn’t realize they were black until after they were already released, otherwise he probably wouldn’t have even tried to help.

BECAUSE HE’S RACIST

Why are we bringing up the National Anthem protests again?

There’s no reason we should cower up about just because of one incident that happened. You should be able to have an appropriate discussion about it.

Given what has happened when we discussed it in the past, I don’t think I can. We have already made our opinions on the issue clear enough anyway. Also, I just understand why mfm decided to bring it up now, we hadn’t been talking about it at all.

I was telling a joke.

To be fair you seem to feel that way about all humor.

I got one better for you:

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/932388590344196096

Sen. Jeff Flake(y), who is unelectable in the Great State of Arizona (quit race, anemic polls) was caught (purposely) on “mike” saying bad things about your favorite President. He’ll be a NO on tax cuts because his political career anyway is “toast.”

“Donald” Trump is a “very bad man.”

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

One more. This one really tripped me up.

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/932392209445457920

Shoplifting is a very big deal in China, as it should be (5-10 years in jail), but not to father LaVar. Should have gotten his son out during my next trip to China instead. China told them why they were released. Very ungrateful!

How the hell is 5-10 years a fair sentence for shoplifting? That’s insane!

I (think?) I agree with your message but the messaging could use a little bit of work.

That’s an offensive term no matter the context. I expect better from you guys.

I honestly don’t understand what this sigh is for. Do you approve of using that word as an insult?

Alright, let’s just nip this in the bud.

It wasn’t cool. I made an impassioned post in the heat of the moment after a day of catching up with our moron-in-chief’s childish bullshit and I used stronger language than was strictly appropriate. It’s not a word I bandy around in the worst of times, but it felt right in the moment; coming back with a more composed mind, it wasn’t.

Feel free to use the immortalized post to ruin my future political career. Thanks.

We all say things we didn’t think through and later regret. It happens.

Except me, I don’t do that.

I’ve never understood why people claim that insult is worse than others.

Apology accepted, Captain Needa. 😉
