GL man.

Thanks Wes!

I'm feeling alright overall, bit short of breath, left side of my chest sore, body ache, called in and they got me in for a test in a few hours.

I just took exception with 10 years ago. It seemed like your previous post claimed that 10 years ago democrat were playing the victim card. Which I disagreed with. If that’s not what you meant then I apologize.

Both parties use victimhood to drum up support. However I don’t think there’s any comparison in the last 10 years which side uses it more. I think it finds its roots in Nixon’s southern strategy, was exploited by Reagan to create the “moral majority”, and has been put into overdrive since November 2008.

Ever since obama, the right has given up on reaching out beyond their aggrieved white victimhood base.

I completely disagree. Hell, the Democratic platform is run on victimhood. All minorities are victims. All women are victims. Everyone needs free handouts because they’re victims and life hasn’t been fair to them. Spare me, man. I’ll vote Biden but this narrative is ridiculous.

And fwiw, many many minorities and females are victims. Look no further than Minnesota.

Lmao. So because Trump has taken some measures he has done a good job. You really can’t make up how dumb HeathMe is. Hey, I beat my kids and yell at them all day and don’t have any meaningful experiences with them but because I put food on the table, I’m doing a good job as a parent!

Please don’t procreate, Heath. Seriously. You’re epically dumb. Trump loves this country. He loves it so much he got deferments from Vietnam five times lmao. He loves it so much virtually every word out of his mouth is divisive and splitting a wedge between the people in this country. He loves it so much he chooses his dumb, ignorant science-defying ways to address the coronavirus, thus killing tens of thousands more than he had to. He loves it so much that he says one thing and then a week later denies having ever said it, even though it’s 2020 and there is video of him saying it, thus lying to the country’s people 24/7. I could go on and on. Listen, Biden sucks. Hilary is by all accounts a despicable human being. But this guy shouldn’t be running a kiosk in a mall let alone our country and the fact that you support him shows how stupid you are.

LOL

Sorry I wasn’t clear. I meant 10 ir more years ago. Both parties do it. Just today it is the constant crying story from the right.

Fine. I think you are in the habit of applying a completely different level of scrutiny to statements made by made by conservatives vs. statements made by liberals.

I have this funny idea that I should be able to believe what the POTUS says.

Yea, liberals never do this. Jesu, cmon man.

I'm not going to go into the degree or merits of your complaints here regarding victimhood and minorities.

However, putting on the mantle of victimhood is a continuing right-wing strategy. Talk about rounding up Christians, about how white people have it so hard now. etc., is stuff I read all over the place. It's a regular feature of PJF posts.

You think minorities and women are treated with equality in this country?

I'm confused by you bringing up Minnesota, do you think George Floyd was a victim of police brutality?

He was completely clear that may minorities are actual victims. As someone recently said, "Try reading the post you quoted".

According to Limbaugh, the POTUS merely regurgitates hurtful conspiracies. In fact, yesterday Limbaugh compared Trump to a child who pours gasoline on a fire and then stands back and enjoys the carnage. The president apparently serves no legal or moral leadership role.

You're right. How embarrassing!
