**** Elections thread *****

If prior presidents have said bad things, it's ok for future presidents to say bad things?

You're just trolling now. Who is this person you think should be president who has never said anything controversial, offensive, or opinionated? Are you saying only a sinless angel can be president and everyone else is disqualified?

And who decides what's "bad"? Trump told Rep Lewis to do his job, and the NY Times went on a two page rant about how Trump doesn't care about civil rights. They crucified Mitt Romney. Even Arianna Grande, a flash in the pan entertainer who's opinion matters 0%, is getting a mountain of dog shit right now because she gave herself a pat on the back.

This country is ADDICTED to outrage. If you open your mouth at all, you automatically piss off at least 20% percent of the world.

Should our president be a mute?

It's nice that you've thought up this ideal little dream utopia where all of our leaders and public figures only say things that are neutral. But that world only exists in your mind. Here on earth...everyone's resume has blemishes.

I'm only summarizing arguments. I think I was fair in my summation.

No, you're 'simplifying'. Way way way simplifying. Not the same as 'summarizing'.

I still wondering, who is this living saint who's never said anything offensive, controversial, or opinionated and should be given the presidency? Can you name anyone who has maintained your standard for proper speech for their entire life?

How was it not a fair summary?
