    I also made the "mistake" of pointing out Trump's BS on a friend's Facebook page when he was crying about how unfair it was since Trump "turned this country around." Never have I ever been accused of being "drunk" when discussing politics. One of the best things about posting here is I don't get notifications when a friend of a friend gets butt hurt.
    I've tried to discuss it with a few folks. I've gotten everything from Pelosi should be impeached for attempting a coup of the President to someone actually using the Civil War schtick. You just can't reason with these Cultists, and I think that's the worst part about the last three years and not just the impeachment itself.

    I had to look up social gospel to see why it was bad, apparently it's literally just preaching what Jesus did in the Bible...

    That says just about everything about evangelicals.

    Yeah, apparently they prefer the Prosperity Gospel, which is where the church says "give me your money and God might reward you for giving me your money, and if he doesn't then clearly you need to give me more money."

    Well, seeing as how @Skroe coined this two years ago, I think we all know his Secret Identity.

    On topic: Hey remember when...ah fuck it. US Steel closes a mill just outside Detroit --

    "You already posted that."

    No, that was when they were only firing 200 people. Now they're firing everyone else, over 1500 total.

    To put this in perspective, "1500 jobs" is also known as "more steel jobs than Trump added in 2018, total." In fact, the US added about 3,000 steel jobs from Jan 2017 to Dec 2018. This would be half of that, gone instantly, as if --



    ...they were gone in a snap.

    In other news,
    -- China accuses Trump of meddling with Chinese internal affairs directly during a phone call
    -- Facebook catches a Trump troll-bot farm creating Fake People
    -- Team Trump is considering the angle that Trump wasn't really impeached, on the grounds that Pelosi didn't instantly deliver the articles of impeachment to the Senate.

    "How many deadlines has Trump missed?"

    Yeah, it's completely hypocritical for the man who has a record-breaking number of job vacancies to accuse someone else of being slow. Also, that would be suicide. Let's pretend, somehow, this strategy works and Trump wipes out the impeachment. Guess what? He immediately gets impeached again. And Pelosi gets to add anyone else they might have missed the first time to the witness list.

    A rare apology from a Republican:

    https://twitter.com/SarahHuckabee/st...75807806406662 "I actually didn’t know that about you and that is commendable. I apologize and should have made my point respectfully."

    In response to this: https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1207868810247757824 "I’ve worked my whole life to overcome a stutter. And it’s my great honor to mentor kids who have experienced the same. It’s called empathy. Look it up."

    In response to a now-deleted tweet of hers that went, "I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I hhhave absolutely no idea what Biden is talking about."

    I'm curious how she could have respectfully made fun of his speech patterns, but hey, baby steps.

    As if Trump actually reads anyway lol
    There is very good evidence that Trump can't read. Not that he reads, but he can't.

    Remember when they tried to claim that "covfefe" was a secret message that only the super smart Trump supporters would understand?

    Father once spoke of an Angel
    I used to dream he'd appear
    Now as I tweet, I can sense him
    And I know he's here

    Here in this room, he calls me softly
    Somewhere inside, hiding
    Somehow I know he's always with me
    He, the unseen stable genius

    Angel of lying, guide and guardian
    Grant me your bigly glory
    Angel of lying, hide no longer
    Secret and strange Angel

    Holy crap!

    A total Witch Hunt!
    https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...119439878?s=19

    a Trump tweet in which he linked this story.

    BREAKING: Russian President Vladimir Putin says U.S. President Donald Trump's impeachment is far-fetched and predicts the U.S. Senate will reject it. https://t.co/wqZ2Yee5Mk
    He thinks Putin vindicates him. Putin, who for the millionth time, every Intelligence Agency has stated that Russia is pushing the Ukrainian story.
    Democrats are the best! I will never ever question a Democrat again. I LOVE the Democrats!

    To be fair

    Covfefe is one of his lesser mistakes, it seems almost vindictive to mock that part

    Anyone can typo sometimes by hitting close kets or getting the wrong odrer

    People are basically mocking him for being human
