Enjoy it while you can. That's all over come November. Shortest Senate term in history? Maybe. Originally Posted by gfejunkie

And trust me I will enjoy it, just like I enjoyed watching your side get their asses beat in New Jersey, just like I enjoyed watching your side get their asses beat in Virginia.... by an openly transgender candidate!!!

And yeah I agree November 6th cannot get here soon enough!! It will not be a good for you at all. Kiss the house & senate good bye buddy. Hope ole Donnie Boy has his veto pen handy cause he's gonna need it. Once again if you ever did your research you would know that mid terms almost always go against the incumbent president's party. If Donnie Boy at least had some what decent approval ratings y'all might have a slim chance, but instead he has the lowest of any prez in history and rightfully so.

If I were you, I would make sure and book a date with your ATF on election night, because that is about the only thing that will put a smile on your face on that night

I agree that he didn't push hard for new gun restrictions because he knew he couldn't get any legislation through congress.

I disagree that he was pushing for "severe restrictions on guns". Yes, he wanted to strengthen background checks. He wanted to focus on mental health treatment. He was for limiting magazine sizes. He supported gun safety courses. I don't call any of these measures as severe restrictions on guns. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

Personally, I would like to see a world without guns. Let everyone who wants to kill someone else do it with a knife or a bow and arrow or by some other means.

Obviously this won't happen. So I have no problem with people owning guns but I also support gun control measures that are intended to make it safer for all.
Apparently Trump really wants us to believe that he has been the champion of African Americans. He's also back to his lying ways. He again brings up this stat about African American unemployment being the lowest ever. His supporters here that and take that without ever knowing/looking at the truth. The unemployment rate has been dropping since 2010. It was cut in half under President Obama. He again gave Trump progress that Trump tries to take all the credit for. Thing is it has only dropped 1.1% since Trump has gotten in office. Oh and African American labor force participation was 62.3 when Trump took office, it's was 62.1 in December. So that wasn't good.

And then the lying about his support among African Americans doubling and going to get better. That's a lie that, if you believe, you're the dumbest person walking this Earth. Without looking at the numbers, just think about that for a minute. The amount of African Americans that have constantly said that Trump is racist. The amount of African Americans who come out to vote against people in his party. But then look at the numbers.. 15% approval among African Americans after the elections. Was higher than Mitt Romney (that was their talking point). Well that approval rating is 3% now. He lost support. And the disapproval is now 91%. Yeah he needs to stop lying. This man isn't a friend of African Americans and we aren't stupid. He gets little support from this community. But I'm sure his supporters will believe his lie and tell their friends, "see Trump is liked by African Americans now."
I support common sense gun control measures. The only problem is that the bad guys do not abide by them. If they can't get them legally - they will steal them. So how is that going to be stopped. Example- Adam Lanza - Sandy Hook - he stole his mothers gun and then killed her. And then killed all those innocent children with a stolen gun.

But these blind Trump minions will say there isn't a blue wave. They will say it means nothing. Let them keep thinking that and November will terrify them.

Adam Lanza was not a "bad guy". He had never been in trouble with the law until he did what he did at Sandy Hook, meaning that at the age of 20 he could have legally bought the weapons that he used. However, Adam had Asperger's syndrome and was described by classmates as "deeply troubled". Obviously Adam's mother should have kept those guns under lock-and-key but Adam should also not have been able to purchase guns knowing his mental state.

It is very difficult to legally purchase guns in New York City. What is happening is that in many of the crimes committed in the city guns purchased in other states, which have much more lenient gun purchasing laws, are being used. Now what if those other states tightened their gun purchasing laws?

I can't wait till November - in the state of Maryland - Chelsea Manning is running for Senate - as a dem!!!! The veterans are gonna love that. You can give a big thank you to Obama for that.

But... 1) I don’t see homosexuality as something bad so I won’t take your post as an insult as you mean it to be. Most racist tend to be anti LGBT so not surprised you are.

2) Seeing as how the post was about guns, most intelligent people know the intended word.

3) I live in Texas and have never been to Indiana or Wisconsin so that’s stupid.

4) I’ve never been with a man. But for all those who have do you. You should maybe try working on that racism before jumping in on gay shaming. Not a good look.

I would like to believe that in this country people would vote for the better of the candidates, whether it be Manning or the incumbent Senator, Ben Cardin. Unfortunately we still have a great deal of bigotry in this country which clouds one's perspectives.

Yes, thank you Obama for TRYING to create a country in which people are viewed as people regardless of their sex, color, religion, or sexual orientation.
Wow dude, I don't have a problem with her being transgender. I do have a problem with her being an American traitor. Interesting that you asked about her being transgender without even mentioning that she leaked classified information. Obama commuted her sentence-remember?

Donald Trump pardoned a man who is a racist, a birther, and who was sued by the DOJ for racial profiling and had courts award settlements against him for this. Before he served any time. He’s running for Senate too. Also your favorite guy has people in his family who tried to get information from a hostile country that was stolen. And Trump said he loved WikiLeaks, the site who was intrumental in sharing the information you are trying to use against Obama and Dems. So they aren’t much better.

Plus you are talking like she is running unopposed. She is entering the primary against an incumbent who is seeking his third term. Odds are she isn’t the Democratic nominee. But keep thinking their isn’t a blue waving coming in November.
