Consumer confidence hits 13-year high

[Brian37]

Okay Brian - your rant with 45 is one thing. Your unnecessarily attacking another member of this forum for posting a link to an article, is entirely something else.

I don't give a rat's ass about 45. This isn't about him. It is about your bullying of another member here, who gave you no legitimate reason to call him names and attack him the way you did. That is all I'm saying.

Seriously - get some help man. A lot of us are angry with 45. A lot of us are not happy with the things he's done while in office. But that doesn't give anyone the right to attack members of this forum

I don't need help, those whom support 45 are delusional and there is no polite way to put it.
We've seen where political vilification and scapegoating has gone in the past and it never ends well. 
If anyone supports that vile man, then they are on the wrong side of history. 

Alpha didn't have a gun put to his head nor was he forced to post here. If one chooses to ignore the exploding pay gap since 1980, and one chooses to support the tactic of political vilification and they open their mouth about it with me, they will get an unfiltered response.

WHEN 45 opens his mouth his words hold power, and people take him at his word, even when he is hurting innocent people for no good fucking reason. If one supports that, then they are party to the problem, not part of the solution.  If Alpha didn't want me responding like I have, then he should condemn 45 because 45 is supposed to be a diplomat, not behave like a selfish despot.

I am not the problem and I will not apologize for rightfully condemning bad claims and bad ideas that lead to bigotry and bad economic policy. There is an ignore option on this website, Alpha is capable of adjusting his settings if he chooses. IN REAL LIFE there are minorities worldwide that have to fear far more than getting offended. 
Koptic Christians, Kurdish Christians, minority Muslims, LGBT and atheists in parts of the world have to fear far more than just getting offended. 

I am not oppressing Alpha here, I am not going to have him arrested, nor are the admins going to prevent him from posting here. Alpha and ALL of our theist members, are NOT oppressed here. But no, if anyone even outside this website supports 45 sorry, that is delusional and toxic and flat out dangerous. As inept as Bush Jr was even he didn't talk like 45. Nor did Bush Sr or Reagan. 45s talk must be met with the strongest condemnation, and if the worst his supporters get is offended, too bad. 

I refuse to allow the country I live in be turned into a white hyper nationalist one party fascist state. I refuse to allow vilification of entire races and entire religions by our politicians, especially NOT our president, so I really don't know what you would expect me to say to his supporters, because it will not be, "that's nice".

NO I do not find vilification of entire races or religions or vilification of lower classes by a sitting president "nice". I find it SHITTY, so if one supports that, to me, that is like a gang minion standing behind a gang leader and making excuses for them "I didn't say it he did". Maybe Alpha should not support a bully and tell the bully to shut the fuck up?

Now you take that prior list yourself, READ IT and ask yourself if it would have been OK if Obama had said those things? If the answer is no, do not tell me it would not bother you if Obama said those things and I made excuses for that.

No, sorry, the days for politeness ended 5 years ago and 45 started it, not me, so if his supporters want politeness out of me, they need to start by telling HIM to knock it off. 45 is a vile human being and a dangerous politician and if they support that vile man, sorry, not going to coddle their insecurities. Shoulda picked a better leader.
