Trump Tracker Too (2 Trump 2 Tracker) (1 Viewer)

[EmBeeFiveOhFour]

The football board had the very useful Daily Trump Tracker thread, which was a good place to briefly discuss the latest ridiculous thing that might have ended 97% of prior Presidential administrations even if it didn't necessarily justify an entire thread devoted to it in 2017-2019 (because of the sheer volume of these things). Since I don't see anything like that here already, I'll add one myself.

How can they be pro-life when they just murdered irony?

I didn't know irony could be killed. That's a new one.

Major props, Bill.

Bill won’t be accepting his medal

Since he did it like that, I'd say he deserves it.

 

[MT15]

While I’m glad he refused it, I wouldn't go so far as to say he deserves it. JMO. Let’s not get carried away, lol.

Oh I agree. I just respect him more for turning it down.

I know I read 1984 in high school but I don’t remember a thing about it
======================
If nothing else, Donald Trump has been doubleplusgood for Orwell.

When the multiply bankrupt reality-TV star ascended to office in the guise of a straight-talking financial genius, sales of “1984” increased by 9,500 percent.

From its start, the Trump presidency has played out like the world’s most expensive lesson plan for English classes studying George Orwell. On the first day, White House press secretary Sean Spicer insisted that Trump’s inauguration drew the “largest audience ever.”

Easily disproved by widely available visual evidence, Spicer’s fib fulfilled Winston Smith’s prediction in “1984”: “In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it.”.......

I'm not seeing posted tweets anymore in chrome. Anyone else having this problem?

Only sometimes at work, when they block twitter.

If you have any sort of social media/tracking protection, it’ll block embeds as well.

 

[MT15]

Yes, my work has blocked Twitter, so any posts with tweets, the tweets just aren’t there.

it isn't chrome-based, but no issues using firefox

Are you using Ghostery or any other tracker blocker?

 

[nolaspe]

Are you using Ghostery or any other tracker blocker?

I did have Ghostery before. My current active security extensions are:
Bitdefender Anti-Tracker
AdBlock
Ad Blocker Ultimate
Ad Guard bandwidth theft device
DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials
HTTPS Everywhere
Pop Up Blocker for Chrome

DuckDuckGo is basically the same thing as Ghostery IIRC. While on the website you want to unblock Tweets, click it and uncheck anything listed for social media. Like right now, under Social Media, I have "Twitter Syndication" unchecked. I had to do this for several forums style websites because it'd block Twitter, Facebook etc. I never could see any posts from them.
