Members Juliajms Posted September 25, 2017 Members Share Posted September 25, 2017 ^ Ugh. Watching people in wheel chairs being manhandled by police. There is so much chaos and so many terrible things happening right now. I hate feeling so helpless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted September 25, 2017 Members Share Posted September 25, 2017 I am not trying to make light of this. It's terrible. But these are Adapt folks. They know their *hit and know what they are doing. This happened the last go around too. I remember watching some guy dragged from a wheelchair in handcuffs across the floor out of the building as he was protesting outside McConnell's office. It's horrid yes but also strategic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted September 26, 2017 Members Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) So the Trump administration denies that Trump's rhetoric constituted a declaration of war (someone should try to convince the leader of North Korea), even though Kim Jong-un read a statement on air (something he nor any North Korean leader has ever done before- I guess Trump is bringing about a LOT for firsts!) saying that he regards Trump's threat to destroy North Korea as a declaration of war. Twitter for some reason released a thread (never have I seen this from them) discussing why they haven't taken down a post in their Moments section about the apparent declaration of war and what it means. I'm guessing that Herr Trump is trying to force them to take it down but Twitter welcomes bots and trolls so obviously they couldn't care who the request is coming from. If they truly cared, they'd just block the Troll-in-Chief from posting. Interesting times, we are living in.

Members DRW50 Posted September 26, 2017 Members Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) Many foreign policy experts are confused and unhappy about Chad being on the travel ban list. Some think it's because of Tillerson. Another decision that will be another long-term consequence/pain for the US most likely. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-41388570 Edited September 26, 2017 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted September 26, 2017 Members Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) People are starting to refer to Puerto Rico as 'Trump's Katrina'. He seems to be too busy blaming P.R. for their fate, rather than giving details on any aid. Someone in his administration mumbled about assistance arriving next month, many people have been screaming that their could be a whole lot of dead bodies by next month. What happens when a white supremacist is POTUS while two territories filled with brown people are hit with a natural disaster? This is the end result.

Members DRW50 Posted September 26, 2017 Members Share Posted September 26, 2017 You know it's messed up when media darling Marco is actually trying to do something (although I imagine a camera being present is the main factor). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted September 26, 2017 Members Share Posted September 26, 2017 I've heard that as well. But I think there's a difference. George W. Bush blundered Katrina because he was incompetent. Trump is blundering Puerto Rico because he's incompetent AND racist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
