General Politics Thread

I’m still extremely disappointed at the disrespect shown to President Carter by them raising the flags just because Trump didn’t want them at half staff during his inauguration. A tradition that’s gone on for many years, broken because of a man who has to always make everything about himself. Just fucking sad.
They already did the mourning for him. It's done. They already did the funeral service for him. Trump was there.

And I think you missed the cues here, too. Malania Trump went into today's inauguration with a hat. Now, I'd like you to tell me why.

Because a lot of people don't realize there are people who are mourning in there.

A lot of people are hiding their pains.

The only people who aren't standing up are the leftists. Dunno if you notice that..

Let me break it down for you.

Since the lowering of the flag started, it’s always been 30 days, always. Fun fact, it’s also happened during an inauguration before, so it’s not like it’s something new either. When Truman died just after Christmas, Nixon didn’t have them raised for his because we show respect to those who served the office with that tradition. His supporters are supposed to be all about tradition, but I guess in this case it’s okay to break that. President Carter deserved the same respect every single other President has gotten, end of story.

Cool story bro. Continue getting mad.

I think this inauguration was done at the last minute, because of the weather. I see a lot of screw-ups in the inauguration, too. I feel like a lot of people were caught off guard. I think and thought the inauguration was gonna happen at the typical podium. That location that has been the norm for the last 20 years.

But I'M not going to sit here and complain about the littlest stuff at the inauguration. I got my President in. That's what is important and that we're going to benefit. All of us here in U.S.

Maybe in the world indirectly.

But if you wanna get mad. Go for it.

I’m mad because President Carter deserved better than that. He’s one of the few people to serve office who actually gave a damn about people. Was he a good President? No, but as a person he was one of the best. You didn’t see Obama building homes for people, you didn’t see either Bush, or Clinton doing the things Carter did. You won’t see Biden or Trump do it either.


Plus the thing is, when Trump dies if it’s less than 30 days before an inauguration of a President, and they wanted to raise the flags for it, so many of his followers would be up in arms about it, saying he deserves better, and despite my feelings about the guy, guess what? I would agree. Because as a President, he’s earned that honor. You mention the Podium being the norm for 20 years. The flag at half staff as been the norm for 71 years. 71 trumps (no pun intended) 20 years. Respect tradition.
 
I mourn the children's lives who were taken and hope she came to God before the end, for her own sake.

Lila Rose pretty much came to the same conclusion. I very much agree.

It's hard to feel sad that she died, only as far as being sad she likely died thinking she was in the right.

See, can’t even debate in a mature manner lol.
Bro, you spent two posts getting mad over a small oversight [under? Whatever]

I was mocking you and all ya gotta say "can't even debate in a mature manner" and laughed. At me. For what exactly?

Please, just go somewhere in a bed, and cry some liberal tears.

Its not that deep.
