Thread for obviously newsworthy stuff

Deep doo doo would be losing the House in 2018 and losing the Senate and Presidency and the majority of the States in 2020. And continuing to be shut out of federal power past 2024.

That could happen. But it will take a lot of work, the vote in a few weeks would just be the beginning.

Republicans will probably lose the House and very likely keep the Senate. They hold the Presidency. They most likely will still have the most power in the states.

They are not in deep doo doo.

Donnys approval rating is still in the toilet even after the rapist got into the Supreme Court and if you can't even get high ratings on Faux news you know you are in trouble.

Republicans are in deep doo doo.

The White House ... always busy with the real important things (in the aftermath of the hurricane):

The WH now "has vowed to “look into” a decision taken by Fox News to stop broadcasting Donald Trump’s rallies live and in full because they’re no longer bringing in high ratings."

Well, Donnies rallies just get boring with him always doing the same old things (and patting himself on the back for the oh so many archievements in the USA since he took presidency).

Maybe Donnie should come up with something new ... perhaps biting the head off of a bat, like Ozzy Osbourne did a long time ago.
Or maybe Donnie should do some mockery of a disabled person again ... AFAIK mocking minorities or disabled persons always have been a favorite of his fans, therefore maybe doing these things more often could increase is right-wing viewership

Maybe Donnie could do some imitation of a quadriplegic person trying to survive in the Hurricane of Puerto Rico last year ... I am sure it would draw great laughter from his audience

Didn't we have this conversation with festivals and things like Oktoberfest getting shut down for being offensive to Muslims? There's a reason Merkel is pushing for immigration and it's not because she's got the best interests of Germany at hand.

You mean these fake news?

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/ba...fest-petition/

A petition that was started by some troll from the netherlands, created on a US petition website and receiving just a few hundred signators.
A petition that even doesn't exist anymore (I guess it was taken down).

If (as a resident in germany) you really would want to start a petition that may have political effect, you would use the petition website of the german Bundestag and not on some US site

Do they also talk about the 'no-go' zones like they have in Sweden and France? Or is that something that you're not allowed to talk about?

There are no 'no-go'-zones in germany. I guess your informations are from similar right-wing (fake-)news media as the information about the Oktoberfest

And germany "traditionally" has a large muslim population (relatively speaking, absolutely it is less than 6% of the german population) thanks to a large immigration wave from turkey after WW2 (when germany desperately was seeking for immigrant workers) ... it is quite normal to have Shisha bars in the cities and to have no problems in finding a Döner-Imbiss.

From the percentage of female muslims I encounter who don't have their heads covered I would say it is as normal for them (in germany) to not wear any headcover, as it is normal for catholics, to have sex before marriage and/or use contraceptives other than Knaus-Ogino

I said she lost it and she did. You all are being ridiculous. Cognitive dissonance. The truth is so painfull.

You said it was taken from her as a result of the investigation. It was not taken from her if she requested it be rescinded. Neither did she lose it. Words have meanings.

[Giancarlo]

more dumbass ramblings from kidiot.

[Kidlicious]

That’s still round about even if true. Direct would be if it was taken from her.

Kid is right in a round about way ... if it hadn’t have been for opening the investigation again publicly right before the election, she may well be President and thus not have asked to have her security clearance revoked.

I'm right in a direct way. She requested to have her clearance revoked because it was going to be revoked.

No.

And investigation? What was the result of that? Oh that's right. Millions of dollars wasted on nothing. Kidiot. Nothing more than a dog and pony show.

[Kidlicious]

Funny enough Kid (once again) doesn't tell the whole truth.

He makes it sound as if it was taken away from her (against her will), but truth is that Clinton herself asked for her security clearance to be revoked
