On a slightly different subject, what do people think of his reinstating the ban on transgender people serving in the military, esp his reasoning?
I think it's bullshit. Yet another stupid thing he's done that drags the country backwards and downwards.

He is mostly dissing Hillary to take some of the Russian allegations off of him. Why are they doing this to me and not to her? Waah. A whole bunch of whining.

What you talking bout Willis? Gore beat Bush by 0.5% of the vote. Clinton beat Trump by 2.1%.

Going back to 2000. How much does everyone remember about the Florida fiasco, which handed the presidentcy to Bush? Of the millions of votes cast, Bush was determined to have beat Gore by 537 votes - .009%.

Republican Florida Secretary of State, and Co-chair of Bush's Florida campaign Katherine Harris, was instrumental is blocking re-count efforts. Eventually the right leaning Supreme Court voted 4-3 to halt recounts and give Bush Florida which also gave him the electoral college.

You mean that thing I read on the internet wasn't true? GAH!

I think I was misremembering it actually, I bet it pertains to a much more clearly wrong point.

Richard Dawkins' Berkeley event cancelled for 'Islamophobia' - BBC News

The sad part is that I find it easy to believe.

It's sad when the left is worse than the right.

If I were a college kid I would go super hard right just to start ****.

I think it's an excellent flag and very representative of The Black Country and it's industrial heritage.
