Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

Which is true, obviously, but not entirely guaranteed to happen. Which is more valuable: a grumbly free HK, or a smouldering ruin with an assload of sanctions tanking your export-driven economy? If the CCP is as smart as it likes to portray itself, then it is well aware that by cracking down too hard on HK could very well kill the golden goose.

Apparently EU Governments wants upload filtering for Private Messages:  
You can’t make this shit up.

@CaptainXtra  
Than how are you going to contact a family member?

And now David Nunes is implicated in some criminal affairs for, you guessed it, getting foreign dirt on Joe Biden.

@Dustcan  

Kind of casts his recalcitrant attitude towards the impeachment process in a different light, doesn’t it?

For the last few years its been a safe bet that anything the GOP accuses someone of its most likely projection.

@Dustcan  
Cool beans.

Lev Parnas Helped Rep. Devin Nunes’ Investigations
 
Lev Parmas, a Ukranian Giuliani associate charged with illegal campaign financing (ie. bribes) for Trump and with ties to corrupt elements in Ukraine that weaved the smear campaign against the former US ambassador, is now tied directly with Devin Nunes, the ranking GOP member on the intelligence committee investigating the Trump impeachment, who has at every turn disparaged the inquiry, democratic members, and worked to expose the identity of the whisteleblower Trump wants to see executed.
 
Nice.

Trump readies to ignore congress and the senate and approve Chinese violent oppression of HK in exchange for money
 

@The Smiling Pony
 
“I stand with freedom…”
 
That is literally the opposite of standing with China though.

@Dustcan  
When even Moscow Mitch speaks out in support of HK….

@The Smiling Pony  
So freedom lovers and Trump supporters, how do you solve that dichotomy? Are you gonna use your brain for once or will you just keep parroting back what Dear Leader told you? Your move.

@Ereiam  
Probably not.

Money over freedom, and the Trump-puppets will eat it up.

@Zincy  
Wonder what Magupul will say about this.

@Mikey
 
Some form of rationalization I imagin.

@Zincy  

@The Smiling Pony  
Come on now, if you make up their replies for them, what reason do they have to come back in this thread anymore? At least leave them a chance to dig themselves deeper on their own first.

@Ereiam  
Because it’s better to let people think you’re gonna say something stupid than to actually say that dumb thing.

@The Smiling Pony
 
He looks like a combination of Alex Jones and Gary Busey.

@Zincy  
I was thinking 1955 Biff Tannen.

@The Smiling Pony  
He already earns more than the President does.

@igotnopicks  
Are you sure? I thought the president was supposed to receive a yearly $400,000 compensation, according to section 102 of the US Code.
