It would be great if Trump won. I miss all the comedy from the Bush years. I mean seriously Obama put Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert out of business.

Trumps an idiot but his brutal honesty is actually kinda refreshing. Every other politician just tells you exactly what you want to hear.

Americans just don't like the WORD socialism.


But they absolutely love the socialism that exists within their mixed economy. Some split hairs about who they think the recipients of common revenue streams should be, but they never actually turn the faucets off. No matter what.
pretty much this....although i suspect it has more to do with black guy in the white house than anything else. when a white guy implemented the program the ACA was modeled after, no one screamed socialism, they applauded and offered the plan as an alternative to hillary's plan when bill was president. when people who claim obama is a disgrace or whatever nonsense, they never have viable factual reasons, just vague bullshit that no one would have ever said about a white president in a million years. the disrespect shown to the office of the president in the last 7 years is fucking appalling.

no one called him a "n*gger", no one questioned his citizenship, no one accused him of trying to take over texas, he wasnt constantly accused of betraying our country by a major news network, no one made up a lie a day about him. was he unpopular, yes. was he shown the disrespect obama has been shown? not by a long fucking shot dude.

Hell, just go lok up congressional votes for major presidential initiatives over the last 50 years. every single president had at least some bipartisan support for all their major initiatives until we hit 2008, then it drops to literally zero in most cases. but yeah, its the same as before, totally.

Lol Obama has deserved every bit of the disrespect he garnishes. We all know there's only one reason he was put into office and God help us if we ever make this mistake again.

Start watching John Oliver, he's absolutely the best news-related comedy out there right now.
