Republicans Won't Save Us Because Their Voters Don't Want to Be Saved: A Farce in Six Acts
1. In another of its ongoing series "Do the Editors of the New York Times Really Think the Yokels Will Ever Love Them?" reporters interviewed an assortment of the aforementioned yokels, along with a scattering of rubes and yahoos, all who voted for Donald Trump, to find out what they think of the president in the wake of his bowing down to Vladimir Putin. And, surprise, surprise, the yokels, rubes, and yahoos are almost all still on board.
One dumbass in Indiana said, "It is strictly a witch hunt" against Trump, while a shit-for-brains in Louisiana proclaimed, "They’re just trying to make Trump’s election look fraudulent" and some fucking moron in Arizona said that Trump is a strategic master because "No one really thinks it’s a true friendship" with Putin.
2. National Public Radio did the same kind of thing , talking with Trump voters who barely blinked about his weird damn support for Russia. They talked to stupid assholes in Central Bumfuck, Texas, who said things like, "[Trump's] smart. He knows how to negotiate" and that Trump has "done a lot of things that other presidents haven't had the guts to do."
3. When Harley-Davidson said it had to shift some of its operations overseas because of the tariffs that Trump has imposed, NPR went to an actual Harley plant in Wisconsin that might lay off workers because of the shift. Even these workers who may lose their jobs as a direct result of Trump's policies are standing by their Orange God. One really said, "I mean, he wouldn't do it for no reason. I look at him as a very smart businessman. And, I mean, if he feels that's what he needed to do, that's what he needed to do."
4. At a nail factory in Missouri that has already laid off 60 workers due to the steel tariffs, workers couldn't turn against Trump. "I understand why he's doing it," one pathetically mewled to MSNBC, while another still has faith in the man: "I want him to fix it so it’s better." The slobbering support for Trump goes on unabated as workers are let go. Said one, "I support him 100%. In fact, I’d like to shake his hand. He’s doing a great job.” And asked directly if she'd change her mind on Trump if she lost her job, a worker replied, "Overall, he’s done good. I’m not going to be selfish just because of me.”
(Just to get this right: President Obama asked everyone to get into the health care system in order to make insurance afordable for all, and that was the worst thing anyone could do because fuck those takers. But you're willing to sacrifice your job because you have to keep supporting the man who made you lose it? That's some Jedi-fuckin' mind trick right there with a heavy dose of racism.)
5. Soybean farmers who are expecting to see massive losses as a result of the trade war with China believe that this is all a part of Trump's genius at work. One delusional Arkansas farmer said, "President Trump is a businessman. He’s making a high-risk business decision that probably should have been made a long time ago. But it’s definitely a risk." Another utter imbecile, who is going to lose half his farm revenue this year, praised Trump with, "The one thing I admire about the guy is that he’s fulfilled or tried to fulfill" his campaign promises.
6. On C-SPAN Monday, an awful caller from Connecticut said , awfully, "I’ll try not to sound too awful, but I want to thank the Russians for interfering with our election to stop Hillary Clinton from becoming president."
And you can fucking well bet that that's what many of Trump's idiot horde are saying. Because of that, Republicans are going to walk the fuck away from the whole Trump and Russia issue because Trump might be a motherfucking traitor, but that motherfucking traitor is the only thing holding the Republican Party together.

There are a lot of stupid people out there. Maybe America is not exceptional after all.

Some could take that to mean anyone who disagrees with another is stupid, doesn't that cut both ways?
and isn't that why the most important and only poll that matters happens on voting day?
Anyone who supports Trump after his submissive behavior with Putin is problematic in my opinion.
Trump's supporters were problematic long before his traitorous behavior was revealed. It's just amazing that anyone supports him but it does reveal how truly un-American the GOP and the GOP base have become.
Seems a lot more Republicans voted in the last election than did Democrats! The Democratic Party seemed to have had a consistent problem getting people out to vote....
The Unthinking Faithful TM do not care about lower-case "truth", because they are serving a higher upper-case "Truth"... and "Truth" is whatever advances the cause of The Leader.
The Unthinking Faithful TM simply do not believe anything detrimental to The Leader. The Leader is always Right and Good.
Reality does not flow from facts. Reality flows from the desires of The Leader.
The rude pundit never has anything nice to say.
At least they're honest about this:
Gateway Pundit is one of the original sources that people refer to when they mention "fake news". There is a long list of false and misleading stories appearing on Gateway Pundit. If you seed Gateway Pundit you are admitting that you do not care about being factual.
You are lucky that you have a head moderator like Perrie that permits you to constantly seed ridiculous conspiracy theories like you do.
LOL. The article is obviously an opinion piece, although he does mention factual material. I really have no idea what you are complaining about other than the language, and the language is what makes him the Rude Pundit.
Here you go:
That's from left-wing MediaBiasFactCheck. Where's Perrie's NT list of websites, because I've never seen that one.
The Gateway Pundit
Has this Media Source failed a fact check? LET US Google Bookmarks
A questionable source exhibits one or more of the following: extreme bias, overt propaganda, poor or no sourcing to credible information and/or is fake news. Fake News is the deliberate attempt to publish hoaxes and/or disinformation for the purpose of profit or influence ( Learn More ). Sources listed in the Questionable Category may be very untrustworthy and should be fact checked on a per article basis. Please note sources on this list are not considered fake news unless specifically written in the notes section for that source. See all Questionable sources.
Bias: Extreme Right, Propaganda, Conspiracy, Nationalism, Some Fake News
Notes: The Gateway Pundit is a hard-right website that is not afraid of conspiracy theories and the occasional flirtation with outright white supremacists. Not a credible source that occasionally publishes fake news. (10/4/2016) Updated (6/20/2017)
Repeating MediaBiasFactCheck? As I asked in 3.1.6 , where is Perrie's list for NewsTalkers ? I'd really like to see it.
Gateway Pundit appears to have one of the lowest ratings you can have at that site.
We do NOT have a list. You have to check your sources on MediaBias/FactCheck. If they fall anywhere on the main line and are not in the actual arrow, they are fine.
I just freaking posted it for you. Sheesh...
The only reason I asked was that people on both sides of the political aisle have stated that NT has a list of sources we're allowed to used. So, we have to use a left-wing biased site to check for bias? That's like using left-wing biased Snopes to fact check most things. Thanks for putting this to rest, Perrie.
I take it you want to be allowed to keep posting fake news and far out conspiracies.
After all, Kellyanne Conway did propose that "alernative facts" be accepted as a thing.
Alternative facts - Wikipedia
It's clearly stated in the CoC, nothing to 'put to rest'.
Yep, that's what you agree to when you sign up. Again, no one is forcing you to stay here Norman...
Ohhhh, now I understand. There was a NT opinion poll. From members' comments, I was under the impression that there was a literal "list" posted on NT.
For your future reference, here's a neat list of sites MBFC considers "Least Biased" and "most credible" ...

If I recall, you spoke kindly about birtherism yesterday. I won't be taking your advice on how to proceed anytime soon.
What 'evidence' do you have of that claim?
Your posit would require a leopard to change it's spots. Gateway Pundit, which seems to be your favorite example, has been unreliable from day one and remains so.
I don't know why you are hyperventilating, very few articles are disallowed by Perrie, and almost all of your conspiracy mongering is permitted. Instead of complaining you should be thanking her.
A factual search reveals a terrible track record with IFCN fact checkers . There are too many failed checks to list here.
Overall, we rate Zero Hedge an extreme right biased conspiracy website. (8/18/2016) Updated (M. Huitsing 7/17/2018)
Without getting into the worth of this particular information about Clapper, the source is rated as low as possible on the Media Bias Fact Check site. There is no reason to allow such crap to be seeded here.
If you think this particular story is worthwhile then find a different source for it or write your own article about it.
Feel free to look through my seeding and comment histories and then prove that the links I use are "fake news and far out conspiracies".
Yeah, thats kind of why I quoted this

in reference to the right wing source ZeroHedge
An element of the right on NT, like everywhere now, only wants to gaslight and bamboozle by sourcing from conspiracy sites and nutjob publications.
You dont get to impose your "reality" on everyone else. You are just going to have to come to grips with that.
There isn't a link in your post Norman.
For who to hide? YOU have to collapse the comments yourself, no one does it for you.
The comments do remain in the threads. Only YOU cannot see them when you collapse them, not everyone.
Other forums have this function. If I remember correctly Newsvine had it at one point.
Trump and Bannon wanted to literally tear it all down and they have. The GOP cannot admit they failed, they failed with the fake "tea party", they failed by not working in a bipartisan way after Obama won both the electoral and the popular vote which was a true mandate, they failed by making false promises to their base for the last 50 years or more, and they failed by not producing an actual candidate who truly stands for something besides greed itself.
What is totally ridiculous is their base turned "against" the GOP only to vote for nothing else but the GOP, handing us Trump simply because he too has the (R) beside his name on the ballot.
These ridiculous base voters turned their anger against themselves! They say they were angry at the GOP. What for? What does that matter is all they do is check the (R) box beside any candidate regardless?
These voters did not "fix" the GOP, they cannot turn back the clock to make the GOP do anything differently, and voting out of anger accomplished nothing, less than nothing.
Trump and Bannon really did tear it all down only they took the rest of America down with it, the GOP totally complicit in all of it including their own demise.
You didn't agree to follow the CoC? Again, no one is forcing you to stay here Norman...
Was this written by a 10 year old? I felt dumber after reading two sentences.
Who can possibly take this seriously?
the seeder. oops that's what you said already .
