President Donald Trump

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at

Maybe. How would we do that?

We've been through this. It takes the collective fortitude of society but our society has no intention of ever doing anything positive. We love the destruction that guns bring us.

btw they say "red states" but it's mostly *blue areas of red states* which changes the narrative a lot. Unclear why the governor (or the state legislatute) is responsible for local crime if the policing is done by local democrats lol. I mean it's not unclear: it's obvious the whole responsibility is on the local government and not the state.Like i saw Memphis cited. Yes that's

Loved the part of the recent discussion where people are trying to pretend that "red state X has higher per capita murder rate than Y blue city" is somehow not a targeted dig at republicans.Luciom points out the clear and obvious reality that it's the blue cities in those red states ****ing up the statewide statistics. "Of course, nobody was denying that."Uh huh. Sure.Nothing

What crime is there to be done in poor rural area ?
Stealing a tree ?
Yeah I wonder why crimes are higher in cities ….


by Rococo

You obviously are making up that underreporting occurs more frequently in New York and Chicago than it does in cities in red states. You don't like the stats so you invented an excuse to believe that your feels were more accurate than the stats.Honestly, you should just walk that **** back and move on down the road.

Clearly u don’t read lozen in the Canada thread ……

in rural areas it's far harder to have proper law enforcement. If you want to rape it's far easier to do so without consequences. If you want to enter a house and steal stuff, same thing.

So yes we would expect far higher crime rates in rural areas if the people were the same. Less de facto law enforcement, far fewer cameras that can get you caught, longer response time if you do armed robbery and so on.

Ofc more people live in urban areas, but we are talking crime per 100k people usually, so controlling by population size. Urban areas have more crime because the people living there are far more propense to crime than in rural areas these days.

Because everything else is set up to make being a criminal easier in rural areas, but they do less crime. If you hate someone and want him dead (because he stole money from you, ****ed your wife, or any other reason) it's far easier to kill him in a rural area throwing the body in some remote place , than to do so in an urban area. Far fewer potential witnesses and so on as well.

In Canada (montreal is from Canada) , crime rates in rural areas are routinely higher than in urban areas (/100k people ofc).

https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/85-0...

In 2023, the police-reported crime rate was 34% higher in rural areas in the provinces than in urban areas. This continues a pattern that has been observed for over a decade.

Take a wild guess about what, specifically, makes american cities uniquely dangerous for people living there


by WPNdonk

I have yes but when it comes to Trump it's really been insane. I hate republican and Democrat politicians but the Trump derangement has been something I've never seen before. Sure repubs complained about Obama but mostly just had the opinion that life goes on. Some stocked up on guns. I personally know a few democrats who are letting Trump send their life into a complete meltdo

I fielded multiple phone calls etc per week for nearly a decade straight thru obama--for several friends to have their weekly therapy session of obama/fox rage. I didn't even vote for the guy lol Obama cracked a lot of people and it was a lot more than some mild complaining. Remember when executive orders were tyranny? Now they're weekly loot crates of joy 😀

I used to think that Trump was the inflection point for us nosediving off a cliff but I've been convinced by twitter that it was actually Obama. I was still apolitical during the Obama era so I guess I didn't realize how deep the racism ran but Obama truly broke a sizable portion of the boomer population. Just 15 straight years of festering resentment and hate.

I would hit the go back to the obama years button so fast it wouldn't be funny. Same here I was pretty middle of the road on obama overall but it was better than the bush years. And definitely nowhere near the ongoing catastrophe it was being called. The whole trump era/last ~10yrs has been pretty lame overall imo.

That isn’t great for your arguments .
Montreal is left hyper woke for like 8 years .
And it’s terrible but it isn’t more dangerous with higher criminal rates it seem tho .

But then again contrary to the US , Canada highly more uniform .
Not much discrepancies for social Net, government services etc.
I guess it help stabilize the criminal rate .

It doubled under in obama in ~8yrs. So what. That stuff's basically a push and biden gets to claim a big scoop anyway in this last section--it's all of the other stuff.

Sp500 matter so much for the bottom ~ 65% of the population ….

It isn’t as great as u think it is for the real economy which the majority of the people belongs to .

all the other stuff like you didn't want gay marriages to be legal?
or you were happier when Russia could take land from Ukraine without the USA moving a finger to oppose that like they did in Crimea?
or you were happier when Americans were being killed in Afghanistan?
or you threw a party when citizen united was decided in 2010?
or you loved the nuking of the Senate filibuster for nominations which dismantled norms that had worked to avoid polarization for decades?
or you miss when the Patriot Act was the law of the land?
or you miss when Obama assassinated hundreds of people extrajudicially, including an American citizen, with drone strikes?
or you miss Guantanamo being full of people?
or you miss 6% employment and the slowest recovery in American economic history?

or wait maybe the other stuff you really loved about those years was tv shows, then yes those were better back in the day

Obama was president for 96 months.

every single month of those 96, unemployment was higher than it is today.

that's how much you care about the majority of people
