By gosh, I think you are right, froot. I hadn't read anything except 1928, but I just looked it up. I figured when you said 2007 that you were forgetting at least an independent or two. And, you are right again on the amnesia. Believe me, there are a lot of writers on the right saying 1928.
Fact.

Royal Oak Schools is "addressing" a situation in which a group of middle-school students chanted, "Build that wall"
It's too bad people were so smug and just didn't know to speak with evangelicals.
Jesus, this country is a mess.I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

Interview with John Bolton on BBC's HardTalk from a few years ago. Admits virtually no errors about Iraq. Insists that the US never made WMD/s a major part of its case for War. Suggests the only real mistake was having too much faith in the Iraqis as a people to build a successful state after we bombed the hell out of it.

Trump's foreign policy, during the campaign, sounded very anti-neocon and almost isolationist. But if Bolton takes over one of the most powerful spots in his administration, it will be an indication that it won't be that at all...

One assumption about Trump that I think is fair to make is that he's self-interested. Now that he has had to actually entertain the idea of governing, he's going to combine self-interest and governing. What he said about Keystone XL is ``ok that's fine but we'll need a piece of it''. So I expect that any government spending will be fine as long as he gets a piece of it. Significant potential for corruption here. I don't think Obama did much with his eight years, but I admire the lawfulness of the period.

If we're talking random incidents, I'm sure you've seen the Trump supporter beaten and his car stolen:

Froot were you trying to provide a false sense of balance again? FTR though, that's a real video and not a faked one, as far as I can tell. However, Chicago police aren't convinced this wasn't just a traffic altercation that then acquired some companion audio that massags the narrative. http://www.snopes.com/black-mob-beat...-voting-trump/.Last edited by hack; November 11, 2016, 07:38 AM.
