I don't care if they are Republican or Democrat. If they are criminals, they should go to jail. Release the Epstein files and send Bill and Trump to jail.

Thats the thing I don't think they get.

"Ok, well our guy will go to jail, but so will yours!!!"

"That's fine."

"But then we BOTH lose!"

"This isn't a MAD doctrine situation. This is supposed to be more like a scorched earth situation. No corruption left behind."

And I don't think they grasp that.

What they don't grasp is that we'd send our guy to jail: because they won't.

That's the difference.

When a corrupt democrat is exposed they're expelled (bye bye Cuomo)

When a corrupt republican is exposed they're re-elected.

Even if it’s egregiously overstated (Al Franken).

Thus is the difference between MAGA/republicans and everyone else

Bill was lended Epstein's plane one time to a regular AIDs relief tour in Africa.

Trump has been on his plane many times, but more importantly called him a friend and went to his island. Many times.

You sound as crazy as the people calling Stephen Hawking a kid diddler when you say stuff like that. You, like the majority of Americans, seem to have no fucking clue what actually happens around them.

But yes, I agree, release the reports and send people who broke the law to prison.

Just make them all public all the time! That'll show those fucking libs.

As a liberal I would be so fucking owned by this

Don’t pwn me bro!

Holy shit I agree with MTG

Harambe truly was this universe's anchor being, and the decay is increasing exponentially

Wow......having seen almost NONE of the other Marvel movies, I walked out of Deadpool vs Wolferine just kind of confused. Not by the plot, that was simple as shit. It was insultingly simple.

The part that confused me was "WHO IS DEMANDING THIS MOVIE???". I don't watch a lot of movies, but the ones I do watch I like to make "worth it". And everybody was going on and on and on about how great this movie was going to be once it came out. And then......

Ok, imagine going to this movie, without ANY concept about who these cameos are, who a LOT of the characters are supposed to even be, and without having seen a single previous deadpool or x-men movie before.

Yeah, movie kind of sucks now, doesn't it?

But......silver lining.....at least I was able to get the joke of a Lemmy post months after the fact.

.......yeah, I still want my $12 back.

Nah it was great, but it was a love letter to people who had watched every previous Deadpool and all the old Marvel movies. It wasn't meant to be an entry into the universe. I can understand why you didn't like it having not seen the previous, but it just wasn't made for you.

I'm kinda with you... Like, let them fight?

I think she meant this as a threat to get the party in line, but i can't see any way this doesn't blow up in their faces. If the leopards are eating leopard faces, will they notice mine..?

It's so weird to see an MTG post and... yeah... I'm over here like: LFG.

Let me stretch first. Don't want to pull anything.

Oh no. Please, stop.
