this Trump Presidency is a pure Study on how easy it is to manipulate people, not just his base but even those who "hate" him

Truth is minorities and legal immigrants vote rep becuase they’re wanting to belong to the upperclassmen. For whatever reason they think if they pretend hard enough everyone will believe it with them.

In a time where the government is shutdown and the president is being investigated for collusion with Russia, it should make you wonder why the Trump administration just lifted sanctions on firms linked to Oleg Deripaska. I'm sureninjahood will just bury his head in the sand on this one as he has done with all of the Trump-Russia links.
It’s a witch hunt! Fake news!

Congrats to all the government workers on their first day back to work.......unless your Trump supporter. If so, I hope your savings have dwindled and that you suffered greatly during this process. Have a nice day.

The huge blind spot in that line of thinking is that they almost always downplay the amount of support they got from family/friends/the system to get ahead.
When you make 40k and you live rent-free, you're not exactly the best judge of cost of living in NYC.
When you take unpaid internships because your parents support you financially throughout college, you don't get to clown those who had to work in fields unrelated to their majors to get ahead on their student loans.

1000000000% . My girlfriend is white and leans right of center. We had a whole argument about this. She kept saying her parents worked their asses off to provide for their family. My whole damn point was right, YOU didn't do any of that. YOU were born into that privilege/advantage, stop being so proud of something you had no control over. Nobody is trying to take away from your hard work. We just want equality of opportunity. Opportunity, not outcom.e

They won't learn.
Republicans have been running for decades on the platform of making government as small as a baby to drown it in a bathtub. Conservatives in government thought that they wouldn't be affected just because (they're special?)
Good luck to them.

I'm Asian. And while we were talking about the topic, I also mentioned I was born into privilege, not a racial one but an economic privilege. The fact I never had to worry about food on my table and access to education gives me a huge advantage over little kids in the ghetto who grow up with a single parent with boarded windows. I just wish everyone could remove themselves and their ego/pride and exercise compassion.
We shouldn't be required by law to help people who are worse off, but I guess I just hope everyone has that sense of obligation and responsibility if they are in the position to do so.

government isn't supposed to be a hulking monstrosity that runs every inch of your lives, that would be called socialism.

Republicans love this when it benefits them.
