... of making millions of dollars in the NFL or other leagues, he or she should not be allowed to disrespect our Great American Flag or Country. - Donald Fuckin' TrumpWhat naturally follows from that is ...
If an Idiot wants the privilege of living in our White House, he shouldnt disrespect it by calling it a dump.
If a traitor wants the privilege of working in the Oval Office, he shouldnt disrespect it by using it to convey classified information to our Russian enemies in secret meetings behind closed doors.
If an incoherent blowhard wants the privilege of addressing the UN, he shouldnt disrespect it by threatening to destroy another country, or referring to their leader by a silly nickname.
If a draft-dodger wants the privilege of being the commander-in-chief of our military, he shouldnt disrespect them by putting them in harms way to salve his own ego, or telling them that their sexual orientation makes them unfit to serve.
If an ignorant dumbass wants the privilege of being treated with respect by world leaders, he shouldnt disrespect them by not even bothering to learn the names of their countries.
If a lazier-than-fuck con-artist wants the privilege of working for his countrymen, he shouldnt disrespect them by spending his days tweeting, watching TV, and playing golf.
If an obvious racist wants the privilege of being our nations leader, he shouldnt disrespect it by calling a black athlete a son-of-a-bitch, or calling white supremacists fine people.
If an immature bully wants the privilege of being seen as an adult, he shouldnt disrespect it by tweeting gifs of hitting Hillary Clinton with a golf ball, or falsely accusing his predecessor of having tapped his wires.
If a blatantly stupid ignoramus wants the privilege of being in charge of the government, he shouldnt disrespect it by not knowing how it works, and not bothering to educate himself.
If a know-nothing jerk-off wants the privilege of holding the highest position in the land, he shouldnt disrespect it by acting like a low-life thug at home, and a ridiculous buffoon on the world stage.
If a self-serving narcissist wants the privilege of being POTUS, he shouldnt disrespect the office by lying, lying, and lying again repeatedly and unabated to the citizens he has sworn to serve.
If a shit-for-brains moron wants the privilege of being called the leader of the free world, he shouldnt disrespect that title by trying to diminish the freedoms of his own citizens.
If a classless imbecile wants the privilege of enjoying the perks of the presidency, he shouldnt disrespect that by pocketing profits from the sale of his own POTUS-labelled merchandise, charging the taxpayers for housing his SS entourage while he plays golf at his own resorts, and using donations to his re-election fund to pay the fees of lawyers who are desperately trying to keep him out of prison.
When it comes to any suggestion that anyone is being disrespectful of our flag or the country it represents, one need look no further than the Idiot-in-Chief who has shat on both every single day of his tenure in office.

(9,426 posts)What an exhausting few months Don the Con has had. Are there ANY citizens he has not insulted so far? When all his stupidity is put into a post, it is mind boggling. Still, the gop "leadership" seems oblivious to the damage he has done, and is still doing.

(12,545 posts)the athlete is labeled anti American. If Nazis march in a torch light parade menacing an entire community they're fine people exercising free speech.
Republicans suffer from cognitive dissonance, thought disorders and loose associations, all covered by Obamacare. Since they want to repeal Obamacare it must be because they are willfully ignorant or just nucking futz.

No, asshole. They're playing because they earned their spots through talent and hard work, and they busted their asses, as well as other body parts, to get there. Their bodies have the crap beat out of it every time they are on the field, and many of them sustain irreparable brain damage on top of that. All for the entertainment of those who are willing to pay them to watch. Go fuck yourself, you syphilis-addled dotard.

(3,074 posts)2003. Bush had just started the Iraq war. It was a work conference. Voice came over loudspeaker: "Let us all stand to honer America, blah, blah, blah..." My similarly minded anti-war girlfriend and I looked at each other and rolled our eyes. We politely excused ourselves and went outside for a cigarette. I don't "honor America" when America is getting involved in yet another unjust and stupid war. And I don't "honor America" when there is a racist, sexist pig in the White house.

(1,002 posts)Great rant and all too very true. The Orange Clown becomes more divisive and more ignorant by the day. Just when you think it isn't possible to fall any lower, he does.

(2,577 posts)You ask so much of the orange ass clown. He is a privileged white guy, don't you know? We all need to remember that the young men "taking a knee" tend to be (you know) persons of color. I sense there just MIGHT be two standards of behavior at work here, but I could be wrong.
