Concepts like "innocent until proven guilty" are just unnoticeable speed-bumps in your fevered minds.

Per the Constitution, I would be excluded from serving on the jury for the trials of the Trump family because I am prejudiced, but then if the Constitution said "guilty until proven innocent", Mike Pence would already be President and I'd already have my huge tax cut from the Obamacare repeal and replace. Trump is a goofy incompetent.

What part of the Constitution is that?

I'm happy for you and me because it means there is one less person, you, who will revolt against me, the 1%. I win huge tax cuts when the GOP wins and my conscience remains untroubled by my good fortune because I voted for Democrats. Trump will truly have made America great again once my tax cuts arrive.



I already said the other day that this day is coming. Nobody I care about is close to becoming that desperate, but already we see that people are hitting rock bottom with nothing to lose.

There's a lot of people in this country, Second. You might want to look into purchasing a moat and a drawbridge and some sharks with that big tax return.

You should probably go to dictionary.com every once in a while with that online brain of yours then, because a smartphone connected to the internet does not AUGMENT your actual intelligence. Here's the definition for you:

verb (used with object)
1.
to make larger; enlarge in size, number, strength, or extent; increase


Nope. It doesn't do that.

I would love to hear you detail this one: "They were all proved wrong recently too, since they've been spouting the same bullshit for months almost verbatim." 'Cuz that's pure Jackshit.



There's no need to detail it. You already know what I'm talking about.

You have no idea what the basic concept of intelligence is, so this is very hard to explain to you.

A smart phone is a tool. Much like a cordless drill is a tool. I could use a screwdriver to put up drywall by hand, but I end up saving myself a lot of time and energy by using a cordless drill. Having the cordless drill doesn't make me stronger, and I'm not in any way handicapped physically so I am perfectly able to screw something in with a screwdriver, but having the cordless drill IMPROVES MY EFFICIENCY.

You keep mistaking INTELLIGENCE with EFFICIENCY.

No really, I want you to see how much junk you post. Did you prove Manafort was not working for Russia? For both sides? Did you prove Trump hasn't been laundering money for Russia? Did you or anyone prove *anything* yet? Stop making sh&t up maybe.



You're joking right. DID YOU OR ANYONE PROVE ANYTHING YET!!!!?

Shut the fuck up, lemming.

Ah, the little fascist shows his true colors.

You seem to have forgotten yet another Constitutional principle, along with all of the other Constitutional principles that you're been so ready to ditch along the way. I even mentioned it to SECOND.

Yanno, it's funny that the discussion would come around again to the idea of "intelligence". I challenged GOOSETEPPER. KRAPO, and THUGR - many times- to define the term "intelligence". All I got out of it was "Well, why don't YOU?" Yanno, like they wanted to copy my test answers or something.

They STILL don't know what intelligence is, and they sure haven't demonstrated much of it.

All those guns 1kiki, are pointed towards your beloved Russia. All those cyber capabilities, pointed right at Russia. Thanks Putin, and get ready to duck.
I'll accept your apology any time, THUGR. But I know you're not man enough to give me one

You are dreaming of the workers' revolution. Or is it the French Revolution? A violent overthrow. Only trouble is you have to sustain your enthusiasm for months, maybe years, not just once every 4 years at the voting booth for the next hoaxer like Trump.

You should read the article: “Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos asked for help giving away his billions. How about paying his workers a living wage?”
www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2017/06/dear-jeff-bezos-remember-cha
rity-begins-home-170619073449644.html


Jeff Bezos’s employees live in misery. If they were enthusiastic to start the Revolution against the rich they’d band together in a union to squeeze more money from Amazon. But it is not happening. Even less likely to happen is the poorest half of Americans cooperating with each other to get the government to force Bezos to pay his employees more. Even less likely is Amazon employees burning down Bezos’s mansion to teach him a lesson in what is fair.

If the poorest half of America continue to act as individuals, not as a group, they will remain poor. As a group, they need to cooperate with each other every day, but it is hard to get them to even show up to vote once every 1,460 days. They need to put in a Revolutionary effort, about a thousand times more effort than voting once every 4 years, if they are going to change America for the better.

They could learn the most important lesson from the wealthy. The richest Americans act as a group inside the GOP (and smaller group inside the Democratic Party), not as a bunch of individuals. That is the secret to how the richest will continue to prosper. They learned to cooperate with each other every damn day of the week, not just once in a great while.

5th, 6th, and 14th Amendments.

But I might lie about my Trump bigotry in order to get on a jury that would fry his fat. I wouldn't be even among the first million jurors who committed perjury to qualify for sitting in judgment at a trial.

I didnt realize how bad Nixon wuz till I watched the NBC special on Watergate.

A big lesson to be lerned iz that freedom uv the press iz an essential part uv our democrasy. If not for Woodward & Bernstien, Nixon woud hav gotten away with it.

At hiz core, he wuz a 2 bit banana republic strong man. How far he coud hav taken it with a little less press freedom and a little more GoP colusion?

Trump haz haf the media working for him and at least 90% uv the GoP. With Russia'z help, maybe he can sekseed where Nixon failed.

What world are you living in J0?

I'm pretty sure the only MSM that is on Trump's side is Hannity.

The larger "half" of the media has been talking shit about him every single day for 6 months. Never before has any president in history had this many eyes on him.
