Oh, they really are - more rational and less influenced by ideological fantasies than most, even. At least with respect to their trump support.
They're just terrible people rationally following the course of action that's most likely to produce the outcome they want. As they're always high fiving each other and arguing with you about - look at the record. Remember, death cult that doesn't believe in government.
They've gutted regulatory agencies by staffing them on opposites day.
They've created funding deficits by tax breaks that would hobble government agencies even if they weren't being run by people who believed they shouldn't exist.
They've packed the courts at every level to shield their legacy from legal challenges.
They've successfully pushed and passed disenfranchisement measures aimed to reduce the number of people voting for anything.
-and, also, they've triggered the libs.

I agree. They've exhibited the kind of rationality to comes with a degree of animal cunning to get what they want. Their desired end result may not be rational, but they methods they're using to get there certainly are.

Right enough. You can't criticize a dog (or a Trump supporter) for being true to its nature.

Oh no! It turns out Trump's tax break for the rich is just enriching the rich but leaving corporate workers below the poverty line

I mean this is certainly end of Trump because his base is all about working people and not his racism and hate.
Disney could easily afford to pay their park workers over $70,000 a year strictly to the amount of ticket sales they make alone. And they would still be making plenty of money through their overpriced food, merch and hotels
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Well obviously vandalism is wrong and should not be condoned. But reading the comments it was rather interesting. Someone wrote he should be allowed to vandalize another countries flag. These dumb fucks really don't get it.

While I don't condone vandalism I think it is quite silly for someone to act all surprised when this sort of thing happens. It's kind of asking for it. You should have seen some of the comments though. Lots of Nazi apologists in them. I think it's funny how the right claims they are not racists, yet they are always the one's to come to the defense of idiots like this.

Why shouldn't you be allowed to vandalize another country's flag?
