    Another day, another piece of fantastic reasoning by everyone's favourite lying piece of shit.

    • His band of goons will soon be chanting 'Lock him up!' This really is only going to get worse as time goes on.Continuity
    • I find the 'pulling facts from my arse' thing utterly bemusing. He sits there and the shit just falls out his mouth.face_melter
    • You'd think that everyone likely to vote Trump this time did so. He's going to need to persuade some more voters if he wants a second term.Fax_Benson
    • Especially as he lost the popular vote. But Bannon and Mercer seem determined burn down all his bridges - along with everything else.Fax_Benson
    • I thought he'd chill out a bit once he'd made a big show of keeping his election promises, and try to appear more moderate.Fax_Benson
    • Yeah it's not smart politically -- shows they are true believers.yuekit
    • Bannon originally wanted Sarah Palin as President, to the point where he directed and funded a movie about her. Let that sink in.yuekit
    • There'll be no moderating this shit-show. What we're looking at is a Nero situation, watching Rome burn to the ground.Continuity
    • Insane. Yep agree 100% Continuity.fadein11
    • And, like with Rome, the repercussions will be felt the world over. We'd best brace ourselves.Continuity
    • It may well be that Bannon an Co. know their time is limited so they are attempting to fuck everything as hard as possible, as quickly as possible,face_melter
    • I'd thought of that, too. And it makes sense: they're so extreme, that they know that there would be no chance of re-election, at best.Continuity
    • They also know that in the worst case, impeachment would be on the cards.Continuity
    • http://thefreethough…set
    • You've all become a gaggle of brainwashed drones, so self assured of your opinion, because everyone else holds it, without actually having any facts to back...set
    • ...your induced hatred. It's really rather scary.set
    • http://nypost.com/20…set
    • why do you have to believe one or the other? You stray perilously close to the same behaviour you accuse others of.Fax_Benson
    • Concern over Trump / Bannon automatically means you think Soros is an angel?Fax_Benson
    • I simply pointed out that there is proof that Soros and Obama are influencing protests. The very thing everyone else here is saying is ridiculous.set
    • They're saying it's ridiculous, without looking at the evidence, because it fits their brainwashed narrative and everyone else agrees with it. It's scary.set
    • NY Post? Really, set? This is precisely the same as saying The Daily Mail is good journalism. They might as well be the same rag.Continuity
    • Why would anyone need to organise protests lol - you only had to spend 30seconds on social media after the election to know people were outraged.fadein11
    • nypost. fucking lol.inteliboy
    • Forget the source and look at the evidence. The facts. Pretty basic stuff.set
    • You seem to have conveniently ignored the first link I posted because you have no fuel for ridicule towards it...set
    • Here you go, set. An assessment of your first link:

      Continuity
    • Ok so it gets a perfectly average score on this random website. What about the evidence within the article?set
    • You're basically doing exactly what Trump does. Just shouting fake news regardless of evidence. lol to thatset
    • This article seems to suggest that Obama is helping organise opposition to wildly unpopular GOP policies. 'Shadow White House' is just sensationalist tripeBuddhaHat
    • to stoke the flames of conspiracy. Also, shadow money helped fund GOP opposition to Obama for 8 years from the likes of the Koch Brothers etc.BuddhaHat
    • There's really not that much difference, aside from the sensationalist manner in which that nypost article is written.BuddhaHat
    • If Obama chooses to stay on and help the Democratic cause, there are no laws against that. Just 'cos Repub Presidents rode off into the sunset, that doesn'tBuddhaHat
    • ipso facto make it the default requirement for all presidents.BuddhaHat
    • By 'this article', I was referring to the nypost article that set posted. My bad.BuddhaHat
    • WHo even gives a fuck if someone's organizing protests? It's not illegal or sha, it's what people do when they don't like something. In this case, the presidentmonospaced
    • You're getting angry because the anti-trump movement happens to be well organized and has influential, smart people involved, as if that was a bad thing.monospaced
    • You'd be equally critical if it wasn't organized and was just a bunch of random idiots, but it's not.monospaced
    • I couldn't give a fuck about people protesting. I'm commenting on people automatically assuming he's putting, when he isn't.set
    • He's lying ***set
    • I see, and I agree. From my point of view, Trump is a pathological liar and seems to take pleasure in it to some extent. Sure he says some true things ...monospaced
    • ... but it's hard to feel that he's genuine more than not, with his track record.monospaced
    • There is no proof or evidence behind the claim that Obama is behind any of this, and there never will be. Weak links to associate groups and friends isn't that.monospaced
    • You should at least hold Trump to the same standard YOU hold everyone: "Make claims and back them up, or else you're being a cunt." :)monospaced
    • Trump's peppering his butt-hurt whining claim with a whole shit load of "maybe" and a heavy dose of "I don't actually knows" there. You of all people would ? itmonospaced
    • I never said Trump isnt a cunt. He's actually done things he said he was going to do though, already, and the TPP NAFTA thing is huge, and most people ignore itset
    • or more likely are ignorant to it. Was talking to a group of people who HATED trump in the pub the other day. They didn't even know what NAFTA was. Embarrassingset
    • I see.monospaced
    • I'm all for the abolition of the TPP, less so about NAFTA. TPP was a favour from Obama to beltway lobbyists and major corporations. It was evil.BuddhaHat
    • And while you might cheer now about him achieving some of his campaign promises, just wait until he and the GOP butt heads over Medicare, tax cuts, military etcBuddhaHat
    • Whichever side comes out on top in that particular battle, it's not going to be the middle class, or public services, or education, that's a guarantee.BuddhaHat
