Hunter pardoned

[WuWei]

Did Trump say he wouldn’t pardon him?

@FreeAndClear

So not better. Always knew.

Yes, but they certainly claim to be.

I see many on the right blindly towing the Republican party line. Are they pretenders, or do they actually believe what they are told?

Blindly towing any party line requires hypocrisy. It’s not a matter of belief, it’s a matter of loyalty and tribalism.

Absolutely.

It’s only hypocrisy if one doesn’t believe in the party line but blindly follows it anyway. If one actually believes the party line, then there is no hypocrisy.

And what percentage of partisans do you think actually truly believe the Party line?

Never mind that the Party line itself can and often is hypocritical.

@Sknyluv

doesn’t matter. They don’t actually care because literally Donald Trump.

This is just a gotcha moment that they can use to justify this bizarre “Joe Biden lies more than any other President” nonsense they throw out to deflect the reality that is the morally bankrupt republican party.

Not as morally bankrupt as these phony lib politicians of today

@Tguns

Seriously give it up, go back to the “they all do it” defense…atleast that has some plausibly.

You can’t seriously believe I’m defending Biden. I could care less about that ■■■■■■■■■. With my speculation, I’m simply injecting an alternate viewpoint into the conversation.

@Samm

One would think that those who would try to bring him down would learn from that.

Thank God they don’t.

@Samm

Yes, but we all know that Trump is a scumbag. We fully expect him to be self-serving. Biden and his minions throughout throughput Democratic Party and the MSM have worked very hard to paint a different picture of him, one that makes him look much better than Trump.

And that brings us back to a recent debate about genuine. With Trump we all know exactly what we are getting. He doesn’t hide behind a facade. He is genuine. The real deal.

Most politicians, including Biden, pretend to be something they aren’t. They aren’t genuine.

[WuWei]

As the great philosopher Dave Chappell said, “Trump is an honest liar.”

@Samm

And you wonder why people here call you a Lib.

Pondering that question, has nothing to do with political ideology. It is a valid question, and one worth further discussion.

What do I believe?

If you recall, I’ve been tuned out for some time. I’m just now learning about most of this for the first time. So, I’m simply asking the question. Am I not allowed to do that with being called a LIB?

Apparently you’ve never met Don Jr.

Oh really? Don Jr is a crackhead?

Really,

You sure you don’t want to rethink that baseless accusation?

Seems pretty obvious to me he’s a big fan of the Bolivian marching powder. Or maybe (or maybe also) Adderall like his old man.

Well as long as that’s what it seems. Glad to know that’s the standard. Ok.

@Oryx

The pardon is disgraceful and completely expected. Biden spent decades promoting restrictive gun laws, but as soon as his son runs afoul of those same laws, Biden pardons him and calls them “nuisance offenses.” ■■■■■■■ hypocrite.

This is why I call ■■■■■■■■ on all Dems who want gun control. They won’t ■■■■■■■ prosecute gang members who commit crimes with firearms because they’re the wrong skin color. ■■■■ them all.

@Samm

Probably because he thinks he is a conservative. It’s all relative ya know.

See @peek-a-boo even moderate libs are to the right of you.

Are you familiar with the Political Compass? If you are you might recognize my Avatar.

Over the past 15 or 20 years, I have taken the Political Compass test more than a few times. My results haven’t really changed that much over time. I decided to publish the most recent results in my Avatar.

I would love to see your results.

There was a forum thread on this a few years back.

The Political Compass - where do you stand?

I do this periodically just to see where I’m at. It is a test that gauges where you are currently at on the political spectrum on a 2 dimensional level (authoritarian / libertarian, right / left). You can take the test here: I had actually just taken the test. My results are below: [image] Your Political Compass Economic Left/Right: 2.75 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.87 [personalised chart]

Seems Hunter left his stash at the White House .

So there ya go. Mystery solved.

[peek-a-boo]

@Samm

You can make a Venn diagram of that and more area of each circle will overlap with the other than is will be exclusive.

This has already been hashed out in a handful of earlier posts. You are late to the party on this one.

Edited:
Scratch that. I see that you found the discussion and have responded. My bad.

[peek-a-boo]

@Samm

And naïve.

Once again, your response tells me everything I need to know!

All valid arguments. But they don’t invalidate mine.

Hunter Asks If He Can Get His Baggie Of Cocaine Back From The White House Now

[Steel-W0LF]

To me this is not really about pardoning Hunter or not. That’s meh…whatever.

This is about a blatant bald faced lie told right to everyone’s faces repeatedly. Yes we all know politicians lie but this was a straight up “no I won’t do that” and then did it.

Why not? After all, you called @Oryx a conservative.
