State of the Union - pre/post election & whatever...

Again, remember - don't respond to the twat. Ignore him.
He'll come out with stuff purposefully to provoke you. Be strong and just ignore him.
That's the only way you'll get to him. He thrives on attention, so don't give him any. It winds him up something rotten.
No matter what he says (he's just doing it to make you say something), just ignore him.
It really aggravates him. He gets more desperate and starts getting abusive. You can tell it's working.
Ignore him.

I see Putin's Puppet is once again making nice with his good buddy, right Kyote?

The funny thing is that back right after the election, all the trump forums were like "we should totally be admiring the Russians and working with them!".

Now the story has changed to "look how much Trump is against the Russians!" as the approved talking point.

Forget policy, forget rationality. The only thing that matters in the internet age is winning talking points.

My God, but you're a tedious twat.
But then what do you expect when copy and paste is the soul of wit?
Even Mac's straw men are more entertaining.

Broad brush generalization that like most others isn't completely true. As for policy and rationality, your complaint seems to fit both sides of the aisle.

And please recall that I have never been a "Trump Forum"

5 Problems With Politico‘s Cartoon Mocking Texas Flood Victims
http://thefederalist.com/2017/08/31/5-problems-with-politicos-cartoon-mocking-texas-flood-victims/

good article in my opinion and the author's take-down of the cartoonist and where it was run similarly applies to many including folks here in terms of the false caricatures upon which they base their judgments.
