    Ah, Taxes don’t belong to the government, the wealth belongs to those that create it.

    As far as Trump being a capitalist, he’s not, he pragmatic buffoon—they’re incompetent idiots who choose reason over faith, and tribalism over individualism.

    Boo-hoo. Did Twump hut yur pweshis sensibiwities? Or is this just another in the endless list of reminders that Lefties can dish it out but they can't take it?

    Poor, pitiful Alinskyites. I want to play you a sad song on the world's tiniest violin.

    :cry:

    Despite the bleating and babbling, there's nothing bigoted about the Photoshop, and if Democrats & Lefties weren't so busy rushing to the defense of their pals in the "Death to America!" crowd and portraying Qasem Soleimani as someone we should consider a paragon of humanity you wouldn't be whining about Photoshops trashing them for it.

    In general, Democrats identify as "citizens of the world", not as citizens of America. The left is defined by their hatred of what made America great.... it's founding fathers, it's founding documents and the industrious citizens of past generations who fought for and created a thriving (now dying) middle class.

    So you would be equally OK with Trump and senior Republicans being photoshopped in Nazi regalia? And a senior Democrat re-tweeting that?

    Is it? When Obama openly lamented that he yearned for the Chinese method... wishful thinking? or Freudian slip? When Bernie Sanders calls for the governmental many state, aren't you listening?

    Let me re-edit that convoluting thought.
    Trump isn’t a capitalist, he’s a pragmatic buffoon; and the Tea Party ended up a religious tribe—they choose faith over reason (They sacrificed Ayn Rand for Jesus) and tribalism (Nationalism) over individualism. (Sorry for the confusion—bad proof reading.)

    Hmm.. I think there's a long list...

    Dailybeast.
    NYTs,
    German News Magazine Stern
    Dailykos...
    UK Independent news
    chris mathews.com
    The UK Sun
    The new Republic
    Newscorpse.com

    I suppose that many of those organizations that have actually published pictures of Trump in Nazi uniform have been retweeted, endlessly by the faithful and the leadership of the NDP.... Oh, and this was just the first page on Google.... I'm assuming that you can now see that your point was pointless....

    Difference being Trump gave money back to people while liberals take other peoples money to gift to others to buy their support.

    But to be fair, we absolutely do need to get a handle on this deficit which was a campaign promise of the POTUS and he has yet to even address it.

    You suppose? You suppose???

    This thread is about POTUS retweeting a photoshopped photo of political opponents, implying they are something inflammatory and false.

    So I ask you again - which senior / leadership Democrats have retweeted a post of Trump in Nazi uniform? It isn't enough to show me that such a photo exists - you need to prove that Democratic leadership retweeted it.

    Which is worse? Retweeting it or ACTUALLY PUBLISHING IT on your leftist news org website and magazine?? Cause I'll just take a shot at suggesting that actually publishing said photoshop wonders is likely worse, and probably legally criminal under libel... But sure, you take umbrage over the retweet. I suppose that the readership of the tweet vastly outnumbers actual readers of the rags I cited though....

    The two things are completely different. You can say what you want about the people who create and publish and tween such false images, but this is about politicians taking those false images and re-tweeting them.

    I take it you can't identify any senior / leadership Democrat who has done the same thing that Trump has just done.

    Yep, you can go on TV time and time again and call Trump a traitor, a Russian asset, a racist, a homophobe, a misogynist, Islamophobic, a criminal who broke the law, etc. But post a meme and the leftist world becomes unhinged.

    If you guys don't like it then stop whining about losing the last election and stressing over the next one.

    He didn't give money back to people. He took that money from future generations. Just like buying short-term expansion on the back of the deficit. For what? 2% GDP growth? That would have been called terrible by Trump fans back when Obama was in office. Now, not a peep from the Tea Party. But, make no mistake, they miraculously creep back out from the woodworks, should Warren or Sanders be elected.

    While I believe the message he is trying to send, he still shouldn't be tweeting photoshopped stuff. I'm still with him but it's lame when he does this stuff and it always gets an eye roll from me.
    The only one time I liked it was the wrestling gif when he clotheslined CNN. Funny as hell and he wasn't the president then
