Republican vs Democrat

[DwightShrute]

Funny you should bring that up.
I saw that this morning on cable news, my first reaction was "That's not a good look."

Ronald Regan would not enter the Oval Office without wearing a suit and a necktie.
When asked about that, he replied, "It would be disrespectful if I did not."

I read Nancy Regan's memoirs.
I distinctly remember reading Nancy telling Ron in the early '80s (referring to Trump when he was in his mid-twenties and just beginning his political aspirations) "You stay away from him, Ron, he's trouble, and I don't want him riding your coattails."

Nancy knew even back then, she knew.
Say what you want about Nancy, she was a very classy woman.

Why do you care so much about a hat? Almost everyone there was wearing some kind of a hat. What bothered you about the hat? That he was wearing one or the message on the hat? I am only asking because you don't strike me as someone who has TDS.

[DwightShrute]

100% accurate. Everything he says is 100% true.

In a word, wearing that hat at that function was tacky.
And no, I don't have TDS, I'm a registered republican because when I was a kid Ronald Regan was 'my man'.
About ten years ago, I began shifting more towards the center.
I'm still pro-corporate, but the health care policies on the left side are better than the republican policies, for instance.

Excuse me if I don't vote up and down the party line, and those who do, no matter what political party you're aligned with, in my opinion, are just ignorant, brainwashed, and not capable of having an original thought.

Currently, I believe the best elected official at the national level is our Governor, Ned Lamont.

Lamont's a democrat, made his money on the corporate level, has a brilliant business mind, understands the value of big business in Connecticut, how it generates beaucoup revenue to the state and all, but this is where Lamont separates himself from 98% of the rest of them on the state or national level, he also understands the unfortunate need federal assistance and makes sure they're provided for. I'm talking about those who sincerely need it, not cradle-to-grave welfare abusers. Lamont can not be more up the middle.
This is just my opinion, but Lamont is the ideal Governor. I think it was you I told this to a couple of years ago, a poll taken by Lamont's peers said that Governor Lamont is the best Governor in the nation.

If anything or all I just stated makes me a TDS sufferer, then fine, I suffer from TDS.
I don't give a shit anyway how somebody labels me, nine times out of ten they'd be wrong, believe me, I've been called a lot worse almost on a daily basis, ask me if I give a shit?

In response to Trump’s cuts to science research funding and attacks on universities, the EU is investing over $500 million to recruit researchers and scientists from the U.S.

Ah yes! Making America Great

You don't invest you speculate, manipulate money. You're not a capitalist you're a rentier.

So the Nazi's wanted strong unions and workers' rights. No privatization, worker owed companies, not spending wealth on war and conquest. They would have put me in one of their special camps just like you want Trump to do. Now we need you to define fascist, communist, and capitalist. Here's a clue these words are not interchangeable the way you have been using them.

Hitler was Germany, who else were the German people going to follow like Hitler? Instead of looking at Hitlers incompetence maybe look at your own. If Britain didn't get rolled over the war ends in Europe. You clowns blew it and caused more death than needed to happen. That's why you make all these excuses.

I do invest, and you want to become someone who lives off the money of others, which is why you have a 401k and played poker, so you could live off the work of others. You want Social Security and other types of social programs, right? Where people that can’t produce enough to care for themselves live off the labor of others. It’s total hypocrisy for you to be in favor of that, but loathe people who provide the capital for businesses to grow and expand and employ more people. It takes way more money that I have to be able to manipulate currency.

The Nazis didn’t have a problem with anything you mentioned, provided they would be arms of the Nazi party. The Nazis would have loved you and your anti-capitalist rants, you agreed on that, and you both think highly of Keynes. I didn’t use those words interchangeably at all, there’s clear distinctions between all.

Many people would have taken up for Hitler, the German people weren’t pacifists seduced by Hitler’s silver tongue, they were furious about the Treaty of Versailles and how harsh the terms were, wanted to settle scores and rebuild the German Empire. The fact that you don’t know this really shows how ignorant you are on the issue.

[Hareeba!]

yum!

Actually, what Trump said was accurate. Your TDS is getting worse.

So Russia doesn't invade the Ukraine under Trump but does under Bush, Obama and Biden but you continue to push the narrative the MSM and the radical Lefty lunatics keep on pushing that Trump and Russia are colluding somehow? You have some kind of mental disorder. Sane people don't think like you.

[DwightShrute]

yup!

Here’s something to help you understand even better dipshit

https://www.snopes.com/news/2025/04/21/columbia-harvard-stanford-barron-trump/

One Democratic senator, Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, implied that the president may be freezing funds to Harvard because of a personal quest for revenge, writing on X and Threads above an Esquire story about Harvard's feud with Trump: "Can't help but wonder how many Trumps got rejected by Harvard."

However, there is no evidence that these universities rejected Barron Trump, a New York University student. Stanford, Harvard and Columbia did not immediately return requests to confirm or debunk that they rejected admission to the 19-year-old; this story will be updated if they respond


Google searches for "Barron Trump Harvard rejection," "Barron Trump Stanford rejection" and "Barron Trump Columbia rejection" returned no results showing evidence that these universities rejected him as of this writing. Similarly, Google searches for "Barron Trump applied to Harvard," "Barron Trump applied to Columbia" and "Barron Trump applied to Stanford" returned no relevant results as of this writing.

That's not a good look with that stupid red baseball hat wearing a dark suit with a pink tie.

Voters in Missouri passed a ballot initiative enacting paid sick leave and raising the minimum wage.

In response, the Republican state legislature repealed paid sick leave and scrapped a key provision of the wage increase.

Do Republicans ever listen to the will of their voters?
