ORIGINAL: BoscoX If the WaPoo people weren't so obviously at war against the Republicans on behalf of the alt left, their articles could almost be taken seriously They'rte not even worthy of lining bird cages at this point though, because only idiots and ideologues would fund their propaganda machine by purchasing the liner material from them And you can finde partisan judges to back any insanity Totally meaningless drivel Bosco, you are forgetting one important fact, Judge Hale ruled against Trump and his supporters, citing SCOTUS on the subject. It does not matter what paper reported it. You are failing to grasp the essence of the situation. His travel bans have been blocked based on his saying he wants to 'ban Muslims' from entering the country during his campaign speeches. His numerous occasions of telling supporters to 'knock the crap' out of protestors speaking against him at rallies has done nothing to help his agenda. You rail against the 'alt left' for violent protests and say nothing against Trump for telling his supporters to do the same damn thing, which makes you and those saying the same things hypocrites. In the case Brandenburg v Ohio, Brandenburg was arrested and convicted of advocating violence and violent acts against others. His whole appeal was based that what he said was protected under the first amendment. The supreme court ruled against him. Technically, under that ruling, every time Donald Trump openly told his supporters to commit acts of violence against protestors, he was violating the law. The fact he was not arrested and charged with inciting violence is to put it mildly, a miracle, or to be more precise, pure dumb luck. The only thing protecting him now is the fact he is the president and thus, immune from arrest unless impeached. Conservatives often claimed that Obama had little regard for the constitution, and violated it on many occasions, the problem is, which people seem to have forgotten, that if that were true, congress would have had the grounds to impeach and throw him out of office. And considering that the Republicans had the control of both houses in his last years, the fact that none of them even bothered to introduce a motion to impeach speaks volumes. In this case however, the proof is there in video of him openly advocating violence. It is also there where he turns around and blasts liberals for their violent protests, or blasts them for calling for disruption of town hall meetings. The hypocrisy is so obvious it is almost laughable, condemning people for breaking the laws when he himself told supporters to break the law. As I said, there are points in his agenda I support, but it is also true that he has done somethings that are ethically and legally questionable. And while the Freedom Caucus may be a pain in his ass, as it has been with many GOP congressmen, he cant really afford to piss them off too much. There is enough of them to kill any programs he may endorse by siding with dems in both houses. The enemy of my enemy is my friend is an all to common move in American politics. You are just parroting the propaganda you have been fed, blind man Eating shit sandwiches thinking it's steak
