Do i need to mention on this same day Trump failed to get key legislation through . That's a bigger loss then a few idiot viewers and some merchandise.

Trust me in 5 months this will be all the jersey burners

It didn't hurt Trump....ah, his real main concern. 

Yes, the frequent, and cowardly, atheist tag-team ploy!

Brian says it will blow up in Trump's face. I refute that. Second theist comes in and pretends like it was my concern initially.

The Boston Tea Party had as its specific goal the removal of the Tea Act. Tea Act - dump the taxed tea - the connection was pretty clear.

Wait, you were criticizing the players for lacking concrete proposals, not goals. They certainly have a goal, just as they Tea Partiers did. They certainly lack concrete proposals, just as the TPers did.

America was born in protest. Why do you find it so offensive?

So does that mean that the Confederacy was just a protest?

Protest = ways to voice frustration over something in your current government/country that you wish to see changed.

Protest =/= literally rebelling in a treasonous act of war to form your own government/country.

So no, the Confederacy was not a protest.  But you knew that already.

"Just" a protest? No, of course it wasn't "just" a protest. It was a nation founded in order to protect the institution of slavery, by war if need be. Surely you know the difference between a nation and a protest, right?

Right?

Please, read with your eyes and not your agenda. It'll help the conversation along. You may assume for the sake of this discussion that I, uh, you know, mean what I write. And it will not have escaped your notice that I did not write a single word about the Confederacy here in this thread.

By not understanding what is in it.

[Ravenshire]

And how is he demeaning the constitution?

By demeaning people for, and suggesting they be punished for, exercising their right to free speech.

Trump only does what Trump wants to do, and the only way he can be Trump is to ignore the constitution.
