I like the action poster with heroic Trump standing on the tank leading America into war... especially ironic for someone who dodged the draft 5 times.

Never trust anyone who owns a conversion van.

Also, America has crazies? I never knew that.

The right should just stick to winning elections. It's more their forte.

I don't get why he would target corporate Dems and their media since they essentially handed Trump the election and are contining the same behaviour. Which is why I guessed it would have been an angry Bernie supporter, as Bernie also likes to tweet hyperbolic statements of threats from the opposition. The timing only seems to hurt Trump ahead of the midterms.

And you find people on the left, who label anyone who doesn't share their exact opinions, as racists and nazis, or in your case, Trump supporters. Extreme tribalism and identity politics from the right and left is a big reason why we are seeing these crazed violent acts. You want to feel morally superior because individuals who happen to share opinions with those you disagree, have commited horrible acts, you go right ahead. Those with real power are loving this because it takes the attention away from them as they increase their power and wealth. Comgrats on playimg their game.

Obama is right... he should be the president for another term

What Trump and the republicans are doing is criminal... But you know the younger generation won't ever forget what's happening in America.

Could fall of the republicans in the future since it's mainly the baby boomer generation siding with them

Just off the top of my head:
IRS targeting, benghazi, fast and furious, Iran, spying on journalists, spying on candidate trump, vistria, PRISM surveillance system, Haiti relief funds, private server, 30000 deleted emails, primary election rigging, leaked debate questions, Clinton foundation contributions.

If i could offer one piece of advice; stop trotting out Obama and Clinton. They are a big part of the reason trump won.

PRISM basically goes back to the 60s/70s, can hardly blame Obama admin for it

It's all terrible regardless of who's elected. Remove the hidden Corporatocracy and then see what can happen. For now, the people (notably the middle class) are just in an endless cycle of monotonous gains & losses. They are the poker chips.

By having scummy operatives in both parities, the higher ups can cover a much wider ground for manipulation and deceit.

But the propaganda machines known as MSM will spend day and night telling the gen pop who is good and evil, suppressing the people of free thought. News has become 8% story and 92% commentary.

It was launched in 2007. Nsa documents leaked by snowden showed Obama's rapid expansion of America's surveillance state through this program.

I like how he worded this:

“No more secrecy. That’s a commitment that I make to you as president…. That means no more illegal wiretapping of American citizens.” -President elect Barack Obama
