Utopia Talk / Politics / THE TURD HAS BEEN FLUSHED!!

superdude Member	Thu Jul 04 12:50:41 FLUSHED WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE WITH A ENVIRONMENTALLY UNFRIENDLY TOILET!!! I seriously hope Amash and his family are eating garbage under a bridge when Trump is re-elected in Nov 2020. http://www...s-frightened-by-party-politics Rep. Justin Amash announces he is leaving GOP; Trump calls it 'great news' Michigan Rep. Justin Amash announced Thursday that he is leaving the Republican Party, saying he is disenchanted and “frightened” by party politics -- a move that was quickly described as "great news" by President Trump. JUSTIN AMASH GONE FROM HOUSE FREEDOM CAUCUS AFTER SAYING TRUMP'S CONDUCT WAS 'IMPEACHABLE' Amash, a libertarian and a critic of President Trump, made the announcement in an op-ed for The Washington Post, in which he said he had once run as a Republican due to the GOP’s belief in limited government, economic freedom and individual liberty. "In recent years, though, I’ve become disenchanted with party politics and frightened by what I see from it,” he said in the op-ed. “The two-party system has evolved into an existential threat to American principles and institutions.” Trump soon responded, calling Amash's departure "great news" for the GOP and suggesting he quit because he was likely to lose to a primary challenge for his re-election bid.
Average Ameriacn Member	Thu Jul 04 13:10:49 He was no true Republican anyway: http://en....stin_Amash#Political_positions Amash supports decreasing U.S. military spending Amash supported a repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act, saying that the "real threat" to traditional marriage and religious liberty is government, not gay couples. Amash opposed President Donald Trump's 2017 executive order to ban citizens of seven majority-Muslim countries from entering the United States.
kargen Member	Thu Jul 04 13:22:31 Maybe Amash should run for president in 2024. We are long overdue in seriously considering independent and third party candidates.
Wrath of Orion Member	Thu Jul 04 13:45:50 It has been a long time since any of them were worth seriously considering.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Jul 04 15:41:33 more people are independent than either R or D R's are only ~25% of the population (& shrinking because of the piece of garbage) down with both R's and D's... but mostly R's... especially any actively propping up Trump
Forwyn Member	Thu Jul 04 15:53:03 Well, that sucks. He, alongside Massie/Jordan and just a couple others, was one of the only true small-government Rs in Congress. The GOP will still be around when Trump is gone. Even Bernie realized the best way to advance his message is through the party, cancer and all.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Jul 04 15:58:28 Trump's biggest accomplishment is destroying the Republican party
patom Member	Thu Jul 04 16:56:40 The GOP died when the parasite Tea Party invaded it and drained it of life. Now the Trump party is gnawing on the rotting carcass of what was once the GOP.
Forwyn Member	Thu Jul 04 17:06:01 The GOP died when it ignored the message of the Tea Party that sought to restore the party to its roots, and astroturfed it, elevating only its most retarded figureheads like Palin and Bachmann
tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Jul 04 18:04:56 making 'intellectual' an insult came before the Tea Party being retards has been their destiny for awhile
obaminated Member	Thu Jul 04 18:20:31 yeah, the gop died. that's why they run the senate and white house.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Jul 04 18:51:01 there's only been 1 election since you put the disgraceful lying piece of shit in the WH & it was the biggest ever vote differential of D over R
Rugian Member	Thu Jul 04 18:58:39 Only because of the 3 million illegals that voted.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Jul 04 19:18:57 the shitbag lost by 3 million in 2016 his diseased party lost by ~9 million in 2018
jergul large member	Thu Jul 04 19:22:32 Ruggy Election soon. I get the loyalty to the office, not the man. But lest you forget. The man in the office is due to change. So peddle back on your stupidity soon?
Rugian Member	Thu Jul 04 19:26:53 tw, Sorry, *9 million illegals. jergul, If you're saying that in five years' time I should be abandoning my loyalty to Donald Trump in favor of President Ivanka...fair enough.
jergul large member	Fri Jul 05 05:16:09 I think you are a good example of why staring into the abyss is a bad idea. It changes you.
Rugian Member	Fri Jul 05 09:28:51 jergul, Surely I don't need to point out the absurdity of that accusation being uttered by someone whose entire worldview has been shaped by a combination of being raised in a culture of post-modern nihilism, spending years working in the crippling isolation of the the Arctic Ocean, and fearing for much of his youth that everything he held dear might one day be destroyed by a Soviet invasion.
jergul large member	Fri Jul 05 09:31:52 Observation, not accusation.
TJ Member	Fri Jul 05 10:59:13 Human nature unleashed...
Rugian Member	Sat Jul 06 07:40:30 jergul If my embrace of contemporary counter-culture really disturbs you that much, I apologize.
