It could result in WWIII and the destruction of the planet???

How unhinged does one have to be to actually believe this stuff? If one guy goes on there and says something, the planet is destroyed? Talk about rent free.

I agree, he is living rent-free in their heads 24/7, but that's ok because it seems they have plenty of empty space in there that stands in need of occupation.

Also, the Left has made Trump into a god - only gods can destroy entire worlds! The Left is literally worshiping at the altar of Trump. I thought only Hannity occupied the space in front of that altar, but then I look to the Left and have to go "hmmm..."

The Left is giving him far more attention these days than the Right is, so he should bask in the glory of having vanquished his enemies, brought them to subjugation - forced them to fall to their knees and worship him... or whatever it is they are doing down there on their knees... and made their women cry.

And they are ALL women...

ALL HAIL the newly-minted, Leftist-deified, godling TRUMP!

At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

Quote:Freedom of speech[2] is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or a community to articulate their opinions and ideas without fear of retaliation, censorship, or legal sanction. The right to freedom of expression has been recognised as a human right in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international human rights law by the United Nations. Many countries have constitutional law that protects free speech. Terms like free speech, freedom of speech, and freedom of expression are used interchangeably in political discourse. However, in a legal sense, the freedom of expression includes any activity of seeking, receiving, and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used.

Quote:Freedom of speech and expression, therefore, may not be recognized as being absolute, and common limitations or boundaries to freedom of speech relate to libel, slander, obscenity, pornography, sedition, incitement, fighting words, classified information, copyright violation, trade secrets, food labeling, non-disclosure agreements, the right to privacy, dignity, the right to be forgotten, public security, and perjury. Justifications for such include the harm principle, proposed by John Stuart Mill in On Liberty, which suggests that "the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others"

Quote:Winston Churchill once said that: “democracy is the worst form of government – except for all the others that have been tried.” His cynicism was perhaps justified after the British people voted him out from his position as Prime Minister within months of winning the Second World War.

Quote:“The best argument against Democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
