Lowest unemployment for women in 65 years. Lowest unemployment for veterans ect. Economy is doing better than ever. (Even though Obama is trying to take credit, very shameful what he's doing) Obama was playing with funny money with zero interest ratings Trump has yuge interest ratings already. Interesting that when Obama was in office, the unemployment numbers were "fake", and conservatives kept asking "what's the real unemployment rate?" Now that the orange clown is President, suddenly the numbers are real. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanomatovic Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I really dislike how political the band is and how this forum becomes political as well. I want to see GNR news and not 5 pages of strangers going on a Trump vs Anti-Trump debate. I swear to god, if you all don't behave, I'll create a Melissa social media bot 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just music, it's sports, it's entertainment, it's family holiday dinners....Trump's divisiveness has infected the entire country. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's fair to say that when Trump is passionate about something he's going to go off about it, on Twitter or on live TV, whether he makes sense or whether anyone wants him to do it or not. But when Charlottesville happened, he was in no hurry to comment. After days of getting heat for how he was handling it, he gave a statement condemning the Nazi's, only to basically take it all back the next day when he went on an off-scripted rant about how the Nazi's had permits to be there and there were good people on both sides. So, yes, if you want to say he condemned the Nazi's, technically that's true, but you have to take it way out of context to believe it. And people who were in his campaign or part of his administration have been indicted. How does that NOT have anything to do with Trump? At the very least it shows that he's not the best judge of character when he's choosing "the best people", but it's more likely that he just attracts those types of people because he himself is one of them. Obama's been out of office 2 years and Hillary lost the election 2 years ago and he still rants about them during his rallies. He calls them, and anyone who criticizes him, enemies of the country and paints them as people trying to ruin the country, or let the dangerous immigrants come get you, etc. And when that lead to a wacko trying to blow them up in the name of Trump, he takes no responsibility for his words and instead blames the media for riling people up by reporting what he says and does. And that is what his true issue with the media is - he wants to be able to lie without being called on it.

Numerous members of Trump's campaign and administration have been indicted, including his personal lawyer. His reaction to Charlottesville was exactly how I described it and, again, if you want to zone in on when he read a prepared statement condemning Nazi's, fair enough. But compare that to how passionate and ranting he gets talking about, say, immigrants and remember that he essentially took it all back the next day when he went off because, according to reports, he was pissed off he was forced to read the statement you're patting him on the back for in the first place. Ripping Clinton and Obama is still part of his routine and has been since he won the election. He says whatever he wants and when there's consequence - like a wacko in a Trump van trying to blow up 15 targets - he blames someone else. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This aint fox news where you get to pretend that there's nothing wrong with electing a sociopathic moronic racist con man.

Do you think axl posted this so it could be hidden away in some rarely visited corner of the internet just in case it offends someone, or do you think he did it in order to influence as many people as possible?

RussTCB Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 For the record, the leadership of this site is kind of between a rock and a hard place on this one. Yes, we WANT all political discussion to go in the proper thread (in the Anything Goes section) however, Axl keeps tweeting political stuff. So it's hard to say "Hey, keep all social media stuff here!" but then turn around and say "Well, not THAT social media stuff" lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azifwekare Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) The last few pages of this thread have been fascinating... no matter how many reasonable arguments, facts or how much evidence they are provided with on things they don't like, Trump fans close their eyes, put their fingers in their ears and scream "FAKE NEWS!", just like they've been told to.
