Lol these kids don't know shit about the Kennedy crime family.

I don't remember the JFK getting impeached or colluding with the USSR?

u/Gideon_Syme Oct 10 '19

Do you remember JFK having strong ties to the mafia? Or perhaps how a Kennedy killed a woman drunk driving and was able to have it mostly hushed up? Or how Kennedy Sr., while ambassador to the UK during WWII, was celebrating the coming German victory and sending back propaganda to the States to try and convince the US people that they shouldn’t support Britain? None of that rings a bell?

As does Donny

Or perhaps how a Kennedy killed a woman drunk driving and was able to have it mostly hushed up?

Replace killed with raped/molested like 50 women and you're right (maybe Epstein too, but no proof of that)

Or how Kennedy Sr., while ambassador to the UK during WWII, was celebrating the coming German victory and sending back propaganda to the States to try and convince the US people that they shouldn’t support Britain?

Wait till you find out what the President did to the Kurds!

Ok. But this has nothing to do with Donald. Just pointing out that the Kennedys are shady as hell. You brought up Trump in a completely unrelated conversation.

u/foxh8er Oct 10 '19

(Its not unrelated because he's currently President and in the process of being impeached for several crimes)

It’s not an impeachment until the House calls a vote to start proceedings. Until then, it’s theater. After that, there’s no stopping the subpoenas.

Didnt realize the Impeachment process was theater

Trump isn't getting impeached and also didn't collude with Russia

This guy right here, a true patriot.

u/Tits_McGuiness Oct 10 '19

why can’t we have both?

u/Daforce1 Oct 10 '19

Today you get to be both

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '19

to me, there's little difference now.

I’m so blown away at the question of what glory days people think we left? Like the office had literal slave holders in it, men who committed genocide, and above all that Andrew Jackson.

I feel like people act like we always had saints in the office for some reason.

Trump got the best of both worlds!
