Trump gives 2 hour speech at CPAC

[New Birth]

Told you the Right would cheer.

Not a cheer Mickey.

 

[TLK Valentine]

Not a cheer Mickey.

A rationalization, then -- the cheers will come when Donald demands them.

Dude, the flag wraps around you. Not you around the flag. How are you supposed to carry a cross like that? Sinclair Lewis must be spinning in his grave.

some protect it and others burn it.

That eagle on top is like "I'm outta here!"

But only Trump hugs it awkwardly.

He's had bad luck with eagles before. They seem to sense something in him.

only awkward to those who dont love the USA.

But only Trump hugs it awkwardly.

I dont think there is any "good" way to hug a flag.

 

[GoldenBoy89]

only awkward to those who dont love the USA.

I'm an American. I love my country.

I've never awkwardly hugged a flag pole as a display of my patriotism like some kind of alien from another planet.

That is strange behavior coming from an adult in most every country and culture on earth.

I’m just going to take your words in the kindest possible way, assume you missed the reference, and move on.

 

[New Birth]

That one looks like Trump tried to color it.

Creative. I like it!

Nope. That's Obama's Flag. Remember the gay pride White house party?

I'm sure they would too. I bet they'd also be pretty disgusted by the draft-dodger in charge of our military today.

Would you be surprised if I said the first one?

Naw, disappointed.

 

[New Birth]

Would you be surprised if I said the first one?

Sorry I didnt know you served in the armed forces. You did serve right?

Every link I've seen wouldn't be suitable here. This is likely to be the biggliest speech of the Trump era. Share your favorite (CF-freindly) bits.

Trump came straight out and claimed he was 'playing the crowd' and 'having fun'. He was purposely being dramatic, and trolling liberals. Trump literally stated he was. It was more of a stand up spot, and a roast, than a rally. It was hilarious. And Trump even stated Liberals would go nuts over it because they don't have a sense of humor. He even asked Russia to provide dirt on HRC just to throw it in the media's face.

In essence, Trump was flaming and roasting all the issues and people his supporters find funny. AOC. The green new deal. Border security. Muller. The media. so on. He told all the jokes he isn't supposed to tell.

...BTW, I will never forget who it was that made that comment about McCain and that he let his daddy buy a doctor to claim he had bad feet so he wouldn't be in the same war with McCain.

Don't be pretending that the men that memorial celebrates were anything like the current Republican party.

Worth keeping in mind.

 

[GoldenBoy89]

Sorry I didnt know you served in the armed forces. You did serve right?

No no, I've never served but I'm extremely grateful to all our servicemen and women who have and currently are serving their country.

That's why it irks me to no end when someone like Donald Trump is brought up in the same discussion as the service and sacrifice given of real patriots like the ones in the Iwo Jima photograph.

 

[LostMarbels]

Oh good! The president was just pretending to be a clown this time.

It would seem he achieved his goal.
