[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 111312, member: 35"] My fascination with the sins of politicians from the past is because I like consistency. The fact that Trump was deemed worthy of an investigation but other corrupt politicians slipped through the cracks is puzzling to me. It doesn't mean I think Trump isn't worthy of being brought up on charges, but he's still only one example of systemic political corruption. I actually haven't re-routed many threads lately. However, the person who is liking your posts and Gabriel's here [I]did[/I] re-route my thread about Trump's budget into a thread about Hillary. You saw how that escalated when I took issue with his point. I mostly post articles these days, which are usually about Trump himself or the Democrats who capitulate to him. It was a bit of sour grapes on my part when I said that, but I had also hoped it would force Democrats to wake up and change course. Boy, was I wrong. The Trump Presidency has exposed Democrats who talk trash about Trump, but have ultimately handed him much of what he asked for. So it's a lefty point to expose the Trump Administration's financial dealings with Russian oligarchs, but it's a right wing point to expose the Clintons? Many on the left have co-opted right wing talking points of their own. I've seen lefty media figures denounce diplomacy, and the Dems helped increase the military budget. But I'm sure they're resisting Trump better than me. [/QUOTE]
