No. I said Trump didn't create the possibility for a celebrity with no experience to win the POTUS elections, he seized upon that already existing opportunity. Your mistake is assuming the precedent needs to already be set as a necessary prerequisite for that opportunity to exist.

What I said was about Trumpers...

That changes nothing... You are still assuming that if "Trumpers" never voted for Trump, no other inexperienced celebrity could gain a similar sort of cult of personality. Really, you're giving Trump a hell of a lot of credit without meaning to.

No need to check anything, all my post had the 'Trumpers set the precedent' as the the focal point. You're wrong again.

ps They totally did

Alright. You can bring a horse to water...

You can't fake this kind of retardation. 100 percent pure.

Doubt that she'll run.

If she did, though, she would probably win. In fact I think she'd probably win by huge margins if she made it through the primary.

I'll take that bet.

Your modhood lies in the balance!

I'm already barely a mod.

According to this, they picked people that needed cars for the audience and the taxes were up to $7,000

Generally people that need cars don't have $7,000 laying around.

And they weren't even from Oprah, but donated by Pontiac but where this shit gets super silly is: it's not up for debate even lol. It was a scandal when this went down. It wasn't water gate or anything, it was a celebrity scandal.

It's as if people truly cannot tell the difference between if something was treated as a scandal and if something actually merits such treatment. You would think they would, though, since that is exactly what they claim scandals around Hilary was.

And also, don't you recall Democrat talking points about experience during the election? Did I just imagine people trying to say Trump shouldn't win because he had no experience, etc?

Giving someone a free car is a scandal to you. What the hell is wrong with you ? If you win the lottery would you flip on the lottery system when your winnings were taxed. You're about as credible as your pal Surtur these days.

Holy shit...so even when it's explained why it was a scandal at the time that gets translated into "you, Silent Master, personally felt this was a big deal". Okay lol.

This isn't a scandal. Paying taxes on something this big isn't anything that doesn't happen. You and Sm will never have 7,000 so you're both upset.

If conservatives lost their minds at a black man being president, a black woman president would crack their heads open like a egg.
