    i've not seen foreign leaders and even allies engage an american president like this. i mean bush was thrown a shoe but that was a journalist not a foreign leader. while i disagree with throwing shoes at people it's a powerful message and so is a foreign leader publicly calling out. i think that is powerful and useful. they've all been friends for years so fack that. let's get some disagreement especially publicly. i for one believe public shaming is a power weapon especially with social media technology.

    Yes, probably not, and definitely not. But I don't care. Laws for more or less scraps doesn't excite me. We've been doing that for decades. A dem wins, we get some liberal scraps, repub wins, we get some conservative scraps, rinse and repeat. it's become stale, predictable, exhausting, apathetic, and frankly a waste of time. Do you want to keep going. I'm sure a dem will win after trump buyers remorse. then the liberal will do stupid liberal **** and piss off opposing base and some moderates, so a conservative will win. then that dumbass conservative will do some dumb conservative **** like shove jesus up my ass, piss off the libs and some mods, then a dem will win....... and on and on... and frankly who gives a ****. i say the hell to both parties because they've created a terrible political environment and system that is financed and answers to corporations, all the while begging stupid party line voters for votes that matter, but don't really matter, but let's not tell them it don't matter, because our side good their side bad, even though it's a different side of the same tarnished coin, but we don't focus on that, focus on ugly differences, hate each other, it's two puppets with one puppet master, but don't focus on the master, focus on the puppets....

    it's a joke and find any political issue, find a facebook or cf.net discussion on it, read the predictable insanity, back and forth, while you realize we get exactly what we deserve.

    and don't say i'm describing trump or conservatives only that bullshit. i've seen so many liberals here ruin every thread with what about trump, trump this, trump that, trump trump trump. you all are embarrassingly exactly the same and don't even realize it.

    Why yes to the first? Hillary's campaign aka Obama's third term would have carried over the net neutrality title ll reform that passed under his purview. Are you saying she would reverse the title ll reform like Trump's admin?

    YES!! Ajit Pai, the ********er, was appointed by Obama and Trump promoted him. https://obamawhitehouse.archives.go...ama-announces-another-key-administration-post

    And don't come at me with "tradition" because i say fack obama for picking tradition over the internet and americans. that's the kind of **** i'm talking about. our government is all kinds of facked up.

    He was not appointed by Obama to be chairman. He was commissioned as an underling.

    The chairman that Obama pointed, Wheeler, was for Title 2 and net neutrality.

    Trump appointed Ajit Pai. Ajit Pai is following the GOP admin's bidding just like Wheeler did the Democratic admin bidding.

    The correct term you are going for is 'chairman' and Obama never appointed Pai a chairman. He was commissioned for one of the many positions at the FCC. Trump made him chairman.

    See, Obama during his admin had a naive habit of trying to appease the GOP by sprinkling recommendations to fill executive positions from GOP legistlstors. He never thought Ajit Pai would be the chair and therefore scrap title 2.

    I said chairman, not commissioner. He was required to appoint 2 Republican commissioners and Pai was one of them. The chairman he appointed was for Title II. It helps to actually know what you're talking about.

    Doesn’t matter. He knows what his base wants.....doesn’t have to be true.

    I love the Obama nut riding defending. Obama appointed this guy which made his "promotion" possible just admit it. And Obama did it because of tradition which is what all politcians do.

    No the correct term was commissioner which is what I said. He was made Chairman by Trump after being made Commisioner by Obama due to traditions of mixed/split party commissioners. Again like I've said all along, the two parties have facked the American people. To appointment someone who opposes what you believe is weak AF and now we're paying for it.


    And I said commissioner, then later chairman. I swear you guys need to read what I said. I don't misspeak or say something I don't mean.

    I sure being a commissioner hurt his chances of being appointed chairman. :rolleyes:

    Also, what if I told you... criticizing obama doesn't make you a trump supporter and vice versa.

    Thanks but unnecessary. I am the first to admit that folks here can't understand that saying "i like trump doing that" doesn't necessarily mean you agree with what he's doing and support trump. yes, it's possible to like trump saying racist things and not be a racist. i know checker players can't understand it but we playing 4d chess over here.

    so many here refuse to criticize obama, clintons, etc... for fear of being labelled a trump supporter and vice versa. they act superior to each other but policy aside they are exactly alike.

    Dear lord dude. 4 individuals have the title of 'commissioner' in the FCC and at least one of those slots is reserved for the Republican party under the Obama administration. He chose Mitch Mconnell's recommendation.

    What the **** do you think happened. Obama for appearance sakes allowed title two reform but secretly placed Ajit Pai as commissioner so that one day when Donald Trump gets elected, he can appointed him chairman and reverse his work?

    Do you ever like do mentally play out your arguments in a hypothetical manner to ever test if they make sense in a pragmaticly realistic way?
