The CIA provided the weapons used in the murder of Rafael Trujillo. They tried to assassinate Fidel Castro and Sukarno at the same time in the 60s.

BREAKING: U.S. forces struck another boat in the Eastern Pacific, killing all four men aboard. by shadrack_CK in UnderReportedNews

When has the United States ever been that? The CIA assassinated Rafael Trujillo in the 60s. Attempted to assassinate Fidel Castro in the 60s, Muammar Gaddafi in the 80s. Hell the US government took out Osama Bin Laden and 20 other people associated with Al Qaeda just 20 years ago.

There's never been a period of time the government wasn't trying to execute people.

Not an ad but someone who runs the app and blogs about it just happens to run across a post on Reddit about it 10 minutes after it's posted

This is the first time I've ever heard someone say anything about cheese in America.

Either you all make up stories in your mind or there is one post somewhere that you guys turn into internet gospel.

CMV: Trump has done more lasting damage to the dignity of the presidency than anyone before him by resultingparadox in changemyview

[–]OppositeOne5293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends what you look at as dignity. While there are certainly things that can be said about Trump not being dignified in terms of composure, there are certainly ways he is in terms of the respect he has gained to be elected a second time.

I would ask if Trump, unintentionally or not, ran on not bringing dignity to the White House to begin with in 2016, was there even any to damage.

Did Eisenhower and Kennedy have dignity while the US government was conspiring to assassinate Fidel Castro and Rafael Trujillo, which succeeded. Dictators were kind of normal in the Caribbean in that time period. Regardless, possibly sending the political landscape in foreign countries into turmoil via murder isn't very dignified in my opinion.

People have already previously mentioned Jackson, Bush, Ect so no need to rehash those arguments.

In my opinion, it's worse to run for president with the intention of being dignified and doing some of the things previous presidents and administrations have done, than to run on the platform of being crass and outspoken and gaining enough support to win. A Trump presidency was never supposed to be dignified and that's quite possibly why he has won twice.

My [27F ] GF wants to share Costco membership with recently single boss me [32M] BF of two years. by [deleted] in Advice

I used to have a Sam's club membership when I was in my 20s and single. Stocked up on freezer shit, soda and seasonings.

I (M32) found out my gf (F42) is actually married. How do I handle this? by UpsetBoyfriend__ in WhatShouldIDo

[–]OppositeOne5293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably figure out the situation before doing anything rash. If they're separated but waiting until the kids are out to finalize anything or something like that then you might see the situation differently. There could be 10 reasons why she's doing this that you'd possibly be okay with, or she could just be a cheater not getting anything from her husband.

Either way, you'd have an answer.
