HRC continues to define herself on Russophobia how so exactly ?

(•̪●) (carne asada), Thursday, 8 September 2016 21:16 (seven years ago) link

bcz her marketers bleeve 'Trump is a Putin tool' is her best bet i spose

anyway it was her soundbite today and i am so so bored with this freakshow

The Hon. J. Piedmont Mumblethunder (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 8 September 2016 21:19 (seven years ago) link

i hope to god that her yuge data shop has good numbers on that putin crap, it seems really effete and point-missing to me

goole, Thursday, 8 September 2016 21:20 (seven years ago) link

You're not allowed to criticize Putin anymore. It's just going to upset people who see neoliberalism as enemy #1.

@dick_nixon
Clinton is as dangerous as Trump in foreign policy. She just knows the big words.

There are many dumb people in public life but Pence is actually stupid. In the way of an insect, or an in-bred dog.

yeah putin is a great guy

wtf is the point of that fake nixon account even supposed to be

if it's supposed to be funny, it never is

(The Other) J.D. (J.D.), Thursday, 8 September 2016 21:55 (seven years ago) link

Nah, I chuckle at least twice a week reading it -- it's a good rendition of what Nixon would've sounded like had he been the elder statesman he wasn't.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 8 September 2016 21:58 (seven years ago) link

i'm another vote for thinking it's stupid but i only ever see it when it's copied to ilx so maybe the full account is better

Putin's the best, obvi, only Democrats think he's a marauding dictatorial imperialist

the dick nixon twitter is only funny in small doses in particular cases. when he's talking about sports and shit: who cares? I don't actually think dick nixon would be saying those things.

akm, Thursday, 8 September 2016 22:21 (seven years ago) link

am I wrong in thinking that Morbz posts these not because he thinks they're funny but because he thinks they're accurate...?

Οὖτις, Thursday, 8 September 2016 22:24 (seven years ago) link

they're just so banal. they're not funny and they aren't interesting. it's like every morbz post except he didn't even bother to write it himself.

Mordy, Thursday, 8 September 2016 22:25 (seven years ago) link

they certainly aren't as funny as actual dick nixon quotes

Οὖτις, Thursday, 8 September 2016 22:26 (seven years ago) link

someone showed me one of the hillary 'spasm' videos today and it was clearly her doing a faux-surprised/overwhelmed joke bc all the reporters to her right started talking to her at once u have to be pretty dumb, socially inept, or really really want to believe to watch it and think it's a medical issue. the journalists are even laughing!

Mordy, Thursday, 8 September 2016 22:44 (seven years ago) link

Well, yeah

Lol, Trump is claiming he did an interview with Larry King on RT only because King tricked him into it.

Frederik B, Friday, 9 September 2016 11:18 (seven years ago) link

With the Putin stuff, Trump&co are just trying to signal that they like pure strength in service of national greatness. It is primarily presented as a cudgel with which to beat up on apologizer-in-chief Obama.

Trump jr and Trump and Pence and Steve King are coming out and saying exactly this: look, what we mean is that Putin kicks ass at pursuing his nation's interests (whatever those may be). Unfortunately we just keep electing pussies. Let's stop electing pussies who don't aggressively pursue the national interest above all else.

Hence, what we need is a pseudo-Putin of our own. Someone who won't be an apologizing, equivocating, nuanced pussy. Someone who'll kill 'em all and let god sort them out later. Someone who will unapologetically kick the ass of our nation's enemies, and make the rubble bounce. Guy named Trump seems to fit the bill.

People objecting "hey Putin is a fucking villain" are, to an extent, missing the point. Trump supporters want a fucking villain who is acting on their behalf.

I think that the "dot goy" thing was, like major major major's promotion, the act of a sarcastic computer (as in, it was an odd scanning error).
