Ok Obama, if labels don't matter, let's stop using these labels then:

Racism
Misogyny
Homophobia
Xenophobia
Etc.

He's a real disappointment.
I have been asking myself that question for a while now: Is Obama stupid or evil or both?

I cannot resist... Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows EXACTLY what he's doing. Barack Obama is undertaking a systematic effort to change this country, to make America more like the rest of the world.

Marcomentum!

Exactly

....Well he "doesn't want to legitimize them"

Yes because radical islamic terrorists bombed us on 9/11 and in the 90s because Donald Trump talked mean about them and legitimized them this year.

So by that logic Oboma has done more to legitimize racism and misogyny in this country than any Prez ever

He is getting killed in the comments.

Delicious tears!

Donald Trump's 70th Birthday Is Today

Nobody is talking about it, not even Donald Trump himself. Just business as usual, making America great again, drilling on the genious offense as always:

No shit, you imbecile. It's about identifying the problem. The first step towards fixing anything in life is to identify the problem. From there, you can come up with some reasonable plans for fixing the problem. Putting blinders on does not help anything.

This guy is a disgrace.
It's called snark. If you're older, it's condescension with an air of righteous indignation.

You're right that it's about identifying the problem. It's also about being honest with each other and ourselves. If you go to the doctor, he will have a difficult time identifying the problem if the patient is not honest and forthcoming. If you can't be honest, it means you don't have any trust.

Obama definitely doesn't understand the OODA Loop.

Guys, Paul Ryan's being a stupid cunt again. Reince Priebus needs to tell him to shut his fucking mouth or else Nehlen's getting a nice cash/support infusion.

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/speaker-r...d=39850324

Quote:Speaker Ryan Rejects Trump's Muslim Ban After Orlando Attack

House Speaker Paul Ryan stood by his criticism of Donald Trump’s proposed ban on Muslim immigration Tuesday, saying it was against the country’s interests.

“I stand by remarks,” Ryan said today in a news conference at the Republican National Committee. “I do not think a Muslim ban is in our country's interest. I do not think it is reflective of our principles.”

The Wisconsin Republican, referencing the House GOP's election-year national security agenda and the House's vote last year on a proposal to pause Syrian refugee resettlement in the United States, said the "smarter way to go is to have a security test and not a religious test."

“This is a war with radical Islam. It's not a war with Islam. Muslims are our partners. The vast, vast majority of Muslims around this country and around the world are moderate. They're peaceful, they're tolerant,” he said.

Ryan endorsed Trump roughly two weeks ago, but has been critical of the likely Republican nominee, including Trump's recent comments about a federal judge of Mexican descent.

On Monday, Trump doubled down on his proposed Muslim immigration ban after the Orlando terror attack. Omar Mateen, the gunman who killed 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando Sunday morning, was born in New York to Afghan immigrants.

In a speech in New Hampshire Monday, Trump called for a ban on immigration from "areas of the world where there is a proven history of terrorism," and suggested he could do so as president without consulting Congress.

Ryan, who has been at loggerheads with the administration over President Obama's immigration executive actions, said Trump's comments raise "a question about immigration law," but did not say if he would support changing immigration laws unilaterally.

Does anyone know why the front page of r/the_donald is majority text post at the moment? I'm pretty sure it has been that way when I checked the last couple of days too. It definitely looks better dominated by memes

"President Obama is angrier at me than he is at the shooter." - Trump in his rally shortly ago.

Game over.

This is one of the best attacks of the campaign. We know Obama is going to campaign vigorously for the sea hag, so he's an active participant, and far more competent. Trump needs to use his arsenal against him even more than her, arguably.

This has the potential to be an excellent linguistic kill shot. Possible even better than the "woman's card" one.

He's probably A/B testing it right now.

It definitely cuts through and hits with the truth. Very promising.

Trump decided to celebrate the US army birthday instead of his own.

Our president, gentlemen.

Considering that he has the same birthday as the US army, scorpion may have had a point. Old oriental folks would also say his rise is decided by the heavens.

That's the funniest thing I've seen in ages! a gay defending himself with an assault rifle (and a handbag, presumably for extra clips of ammo).

Priceless!

New Bloomberg poll released. It's somewhat unreliable, because it polled about 10% more Democrats than Republicans. Also, it was polled before the Orlando shooting. It shows a strong Hillary lead:

But there is a gem in the official report. They did some polling after Orlando:

Look at how dramatic the shift is. 1 or 2 more major attacks, like many have predicted, and Trump wins with a landslide.

By the way, this is exactly how Reagan won as well. He was losing in the polls until the failed mission in Iran, and afterwards Reagan's numbers went through the roof. He was seen as too tough and scary before the attack, but afterwards it seemed too scary not to choose him.

Same thing is happening for Trump right now. And the odds of more attacks are extremely high. I think Clinton will eventually morph her position so she appears tough on Islam but of course it will just make her look even worse. These attacks are going to crush her bid for presidency.
