I love how Tim acts like the smartest one in the room, while also being the dumbest in the room.
I can't wait to watch... I just started this video
and you must be the god of politics
kevintemido he's probably not, but he also doesn't pretend to be, unlike tim.
lol? he says "at least now i'm a bit more informed" "i appreciate the people out there who see that i'm trying" so idk where you're getting that he thinks hes the smartest one in the room
What planet do you come from* were the translation is done so bad that you hear Tim's words to think that he's talking himself up.. wth.
"I wanted to start, then I'm gonna kick it to you guys. Then when you are wrong about things, and you are going to be, I will jump in and let you know."
Classic Colin
Colin is the only one to listen to on political topics.
10:50 in case anyone's looking.
I'm pretty sure he had it based on his last debate with that satanist supporter Kevin. He came prepared lol
NasIsLike Satanist supporter Kevin should be a shirt
***** The thing is he's right almost all of the time. Politics is his thing, so most people should probably listen to him.
I agree with Colin, not even a big fan of Trump, but watching the media that night eat the fucking crow and just be in complete and utter shock on live TV and in the stories online. Was immensely satisfying.
I hate Trump but watching Clinton shills crying and bitching was my favourite part.
why?
omichron420 Because they're dishonest and chose to support a corrupt, unelectable candidate with more scandals than policy ideas.
"eat the fucking crow", I have to say I have never heard that one before but it's great.
Be fair they were both all of those things
I think it's time Colin has his own show on politics.
Bryce Sipes I listened to this just to here his oppinon. I don't care about the other generic, brain- washed democratic social justice warrior, pie in sky views from the others.
*politics and history
Bryce Sipes I think he'd get bored if he did it all the time
Bryce Sipes I don't think we need more Colin idolatry in this community. Plus, they need someone to challenge Colin, or one of the guys needs to help Tim play devil's advocate more often. Just to broaden discussion.
I'm pretty far left and was a Bernie supporter, that being said, I think Colin has a lot of cool insight and calls shit like he sees it. Has nothing to do with idolatry. How passionate he is about politics makes me like it even more.
People in the comments getting 10, 20, 30 likes bashing Tim without even watching the video, embarassing. He killed it today, I wonder if they will listen to what Colin said about the way Tim's been treated the last few weeks.
Probably not though, oh well. #LetTimHost
Linton Singarayer were is that video?
Linton Singarayer lol never mind found it.
Tim is honestly the most refreshing and best part of the whole conversation. I also appreciate Colin being honest but more subdued than some of his other C&G rants where he just ridicules people without much factual information at his disposal.
Absolutely much respect for callong out the B.S
Yea I love tim and his remarks even on games when he puts his 2 cents in
45:27 - This is one of the biggest issues I've had is the "how can you be fair and balanced when that person is saying something that 99% of people would think it's bad?" mindset. For starters once again, the sound byte trend, you heard a clip of Trump apparentely saying something overwhelmingly offensive. There was little attempt to step back and ponder over what did he mean. It was this bizarre notion that Trump haters, generally speaking, didn't take him seriously, but took everything he said literally. And by taking him literally also went to the most extreme interpretation and doubled down on it. This is why many of the "Trump will jail political opponents", "Trump throws a woman and a baby out","Trump invites Russia to hack USA", "Trump brag about sexual assault", "Trump mocks disabled reporter"-type stories where born. There was no truth to any of those, but hatred for Trump blinded some to those facts. But Trump saying mean things doesn't excuse the media or the entertainment industry for blatantly taking sides on these issues. And for the fact that Clinton despite her heavy baggage, was never subject to the same scrutinity that Trump underwent. This idea of unqualified voters is also a doozy and reeks of "stuff that nobody would talk about if Hillary won". Take what you will.
Part of what a lot of people don't realize is that Trump has a very working class New Yorker way of speaking, which is more "colorful" than most of the country is used to. This makes his speech blunt and extravagant at times, but it honestly says more about his origins than his character.
Ummm... I don't have enough knowledge to speak on most of those things, but I wouldn't call the "grab her by the pu$$y thing" a "sound byte." It was, like, a full minute of him admitting to trying to bang a married woman and then talking about how he loves to kiss women without their consent, so it's not like it lacks any context. Now, I'm not the type who's saying we should burn Washington to the ground just because a Republican won, but I do think it's important to say that not everything Trump has said or done should be looked over because "liberal pussies take everything out of context."
+Patrick That soundbyte needed more context. Trump speaks in hyperbole, and you weren't there when he kissed those women. So stop assuming it was without consent. People generally act different around famous people, and could give off signs of "being interested". The only thing he did wrong was courting a married woman.
So when is the Colin politic podcast coming?
I would listen to that for sure.
Have you listened to Washington's Beard?
We have to say we don't want to have a specific show where Colin talks about history and politics so that he does it lol
Dylan P We have it buddy.
Tim was okay at the start , but around the 1hour mark was he basically saying "shame on you for my ignorance"
carmine-james guglielmucci to me it felt more like he was saying: "Shame on you for your ignorance, ya hypocrite. At least I can admit I'm hella ignorant." Maybe just a tiny bit of paraphrasing.
Was about to go to sleep but fuck that.
Juan Ramirez shit i'm currently in this decision atm
Im in the same boat lol
Juan Ramirez sleep is for the weak
I just woke up haha
Hahahahahaha
This is it. This is the episode.
I dont like it as much as the next person.....but seeing people protesting by burning American flags is just beyond stupid.
Its done.....accept it.....pray trump doesn't do anything drastic
I can get foreigners burning the American flag, but Americans burning it, while not being anarchists or violent revolutionists, just makes no utter sense, considering it's a symbol of the nation, which includes the one doing the burning. Much better to burn symbols of political parties or pictures of political candidates or just about anything else to get your point across.
Yeah praying he won't do something drastic isn't going to effect anything. If Trump tries to make this country go backwards on social issues, he is going to opposed by endless protests. That's just the truth. His victory has awakened many people. Hopefully they stay woke.
.
Lincoln Vamos Because it's a symbol of the totality of the nation. Burning it is an action against the US as a nation state, which symbolically can be viewed as "burning it down", that is an aggressive action against the country itself. There's also the patriotic emotions connected to the flag as well, with a lot of lives given to protect the flag and its symbolism as the totality of the US.
That's why I said it makes more sense for foreigners or people who actively work against the nations state, like violent revolutionaries or anarchists.
If you havent seen Colin and Kevin go back and forth on the twitch stream the day of the election i highly suggest you do... got pretty heated!
BallerVisions Kevin was arguing that Clinton didn't do anything wrong and it baffled me. Love my boy kev but come on.
yeah! I understood where he was coming from but he lost me there too. Kev did pretty good tho vs colin who we know is super quick with the info lol
BallerVisions can you post a link to it pleas??
www.twitch.tv/kindafunnygames/v/100051522
thanks cecil
I have to just remember Tim doesn't educate himself on all things politics and not to hate him for anything he might say
Tyler Roach It's gonna be tough.
Best looking PC game of ALL time in your opinion? Just built a new gaming PC for the first time, looking to run the absolute BEST looking game of all time.
I would appreciate your input Baytuh.
JohnnyBoy101 dude run BF1 Battlefront Metro Last light Crysis 3 and Witcher 3 and skyrim modded to hell
You would "hate" someone based on their knowledge of politics?! Wow nice guy.
Colin talking about politics for an hour and nineteen minutes. I'm a happy man
Damn all the Tim defenders are out in full force today. Where were you guys he's been getting destroyed in the comments all year.
because he's finally said something that isn't totally unusual and incredibly impactful. I don't like his opinions but he seems like a nice guy and today he won me over
That moment when you realize that the GameOverGreggy Show, has less bias and more adult conversations about politics, than most TV news networks. Good job guys.
If this is another episode where Colin sits and tells me (a minority) that I must be tolerant and empathetic to people who voted for a racist I think I'm done with Kinda Funny...
Yay made it through the episode without Colin irritating me
Great, I feel like Colin and the other guys are usually pretty empathic towards minorities.
Oni 93 See ya
Colin is a minority? He's Italian.
Clearly you didn't watch the post election C&G Live where Colin explained quite accurately how dishonest, counter-productive, and unreasonable it is to simply slander Trump or his voters with empty rhetoric such as "racist".
Trump is not racist, nor are the overwhelming majority of his supporters. Moreover, the term has completely lost all meaning at this point. Stating verifiable facts is "racist" these days.
Seeing the Young Turds...I mean Turks go from happy and cocky to we lost it all was AMAZING. Their mood changed so drastically. I've watched it about 5 times now and it never gets old.
i only heard about the turks when the woman was defending fat people from fat shaming, only for her to yell "fat fuck" at someone some time later xD But yea, i think watching cocky people fall is always entertaining.
When Trump won she told women that voted for him that she has no respect for them. That they're stupid or pieces of shit or something like that. Ana whatever the fuck her name is, like most of the young turds, are hypocrites. They dont care about anyone.
lol I remember one of the said "I care about the American people" then months later berates them
your a lot of fun aren't you
The Young Turks lost back when Bernie lost.
They never really cared about Hillary.
TYK is a progressive show. Hillary is anything but Progressive.
I'm a gay white man from Colorado that voted for Trump. I'm glad Colin bought up the stuff about the concern about trump and gay people, I've never seen a concern about rights for gay people from him personally. Tim, I loved your thoughts. glad to hear them.
Yea. As a conservative/libertarian leaning repub who DID NOT want trump in the primaries... I was always confused at the 'homophobe' accusation. I can see how you make the jump to racist from his 'mexico ships us their criminals' remark. But homophobe?
Last I knew, he invited Caitlyn Jenner to Trump tower to use whatever bathroom he/she wanted.
I assume liberals are just used to calling everyone racist/bigot/homophobe... so once they label them racists, the homophobe label just kind of slips out naturally.
I can't stand Tim for the most part but I don't get how some people think he's trying to act like he is smart in this part of the video.
Because they're angry kids like Colin and they agree with him and not Tim.
JSF 7 I've been there before... don't get it today as much. but he's inconsistent...defends Obama running on hope but doesn't hold him accountable for not achieving his goals. Then a few minutes later says Trump claiming he'll get them jobs is misleading to his voters because he's not going to get it done. inconsistent argument. Same story, different party.
Go look at some facts. Obama actually did achieve many of his goals. Much of what was left got tied up by the Republican congress which you may remember shut down twice because they either couldn't agree or anything or weren't able to compromise. I have nothing against Republicans but there's been a trend of Republicans being a bit too stubborn when it comes to dealing with the Democrats. Other promises, as you'll find, ended in compromise rather than exactly what he wanted. You act as if he didn't try, he did, but because this isn't a dictatorship there's only so much any president can do when the other parts of the government don't agree.
Chris B. I hear your argument, I was echoing the discussion in the video. Many of Obama's goals of change were not achieved as well, also undeniable. Also, we'll see how willing to cooperate the Democrats are, just to have parity in our arguments. As Colin notes, they have filibuster potential still.
Second, I never said Obama didn't achieve anything. As Tim, you blame the system, even as Obama had the congress on his 'side' (as will Trump). But, take a step back man, this isn't a right/wrong he did good stuff he didn't do good stuff argument, rather it's holding your principles and standards to each party, which Tim/Nick/you did not. It's up to us to hold them accountable, not apologize for their shortcomings. I am trying to approach this from an objective standpoint. It's of course in our favor if the branches work as they're supposed to and do what's right for the population.
Colin is the reasonable and honest portion of this ensemble. Didn't vote for either, and if the points he's making were addressed, maybe we could have all been honest and said that you don't ever have to vote for the lesser of two evils, it's still evil.
That's true, but protest votes (or non-votes) don't really do anything. If you actually want to affect the system you should fight for systemic change through actual protest and action, not by sitting out of the electoral process. Our electoral system makes it virtually impossible for a third party to rise through popular vote, there has to be outside change to the system before you can have more parties.
But then Gary Johnson's VP is a Clinton supporter
This comment has not aged well...
@@tommiller5505 how so? he remains honest. Reasonable too. Doesn't go about calling people Nazis or snowflakes.
@@tommiller5505i mean, it did. Colin is still reasonable and balanced, and one of the best commentators in the space.
I'm not that interested in American politics as an Australian but this was still a really interesting listen from you guys, appreciate it. I also love that you guys talking about not liking Titanfall 2 is more controversial than a politics episode :P
Oh shit its Indeimaus! I didn't expect to see you on a KF video; I just associate you so much with NL aha
polling does not work when 92% of all those polled say 'no thank you" and hang up
TheGeniuschrist That's basic statistics, voluntary polling and expect it to be accurate.
i just don't think that expectation still exists.
TheGeniuschrist also doesnt work when you force others to hide who they are truly voting for by labeling them horrible things.
those who look past horrible things, are horrible people.
In the beginning, Colin said that the science of polling is sound. Polling works. It's just collecting a representative sample that makes it hard.
But that argument was meaningless. Collecting a representative sample IS the science of polling. It is polling. Otherwise, it's a single question with maybe some demographic/lifestyle identifiers. Sampling (collecting a representative sample of the entire US) is why polling is fundamentally broken.
This popped up in my feed and my heart sank.
Proud of you Tim. You've come a long way since episode 148. Much love.
I came to see Tim get triggered by Colin.
So, you're disappointed?
Aeons of Blight - Why would that happen, when Tim is the only one who predicted Trump would win? How does Colin get credit for being right even when he's dead ass wrong?
And Colin isn't biased? Are you insane? Colin dedicated most of his life to the Republican party, and it shows.
Aeons of Blight same lol
Tim looks like such a bitch in this video
Tim reminds me of me, three years ago. very liberal, very progressive. Those are good things, but as he gets older, he'll gain more perspective and - maybe - start to understand how annoying and infuriating the "micro-trigger", safe space, overly sensitive generation is to the rest of the country. I voted for it TWICE with Obama when I was younger, against it this election via voting for Johnson.
I think Tim's perspective will be a lot different post age 30. Guess we'll see. Main point being: grown adults hate that a huge portion of our country whines, complains, bitches, and feels sorry for themselves. That they get offended by everything. it's annoying, as FUCK.
Love the show, as always. Good conversation, guys.
I think this notion that all Liberals are SJWs is a sort of strange strawman, that has apparently become the norm in America now. How come?
The older I get the more socialist I become.
Disagreeing with progressives on cultural issues is one thing, but economic/policy issues is another thing. I'm a progressive who's irritated by all the SJWs who find new things to get outraged over every day, but that doesn't erase my progressive stances on economics, politics, and social issues to join the other side...
Our Republican President-Elect is calling for safe spaces and apologies on Twitter, and it's liberals who are the problem? Ha.
Kinda Funny crew I've been with you guys on this fantastic (lol) journey through this election throughout all of your topics, Colin and Greg Lives and called certain individuals out on things that weren't right, correct etc. But the amount of personal growth I've seen from everyone at your table throughout the election cycle being displayed on today's video is absolutely amazing. It is important to not let go of that growth, keep growing and keep being involved, learning and so on.
Specifically Tim. I think it took a very large amount of humility to admit all the things about yourself on this video that you have and I'm beyond proud of how much you have grown throughout this election. There's something to say about people who can't backup their own opinions with facts, but if you feel right with the decisions you make in correlation to your own views and beliefs, that is the most important part as well as continuing to grow and learn.
When they started talking about being a fly on the wall in a room, all i could think about was being a fly on the wall in the Kinda Funny Studio March 8th 2017...
I was foaming at the mouth waiting for this segment!!! LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!
Tim, if you don't believe in the system, then get out.
You act like a child when Colin says anything you don't want to hear.
Heat55wade3
You call Tim a child and yet you want him to get out ...
LoL stfu.
Heat55wade3 you mean the system that's been broken for over 200 years? You mean the system that's keeps getting more and more refined as we go on? You don't fix things by telling people who don't agree with you to get out. What are you North Korean? Smh
It's not that Tim doesn't believe in the system, he perpetrates exactly the stereotype he has of everyone and contributes to the broken system by voting without much knowledge of what he's voting on. He said he researched the ballot like few days or a week before the election. When he voted for other people like Scott Wiener, he said he researched them for an hour. He even said later on in this episode that he doesn't know anything about Trump's politics, but he "knows people" so I guess that a gut decision is better than an informed one, right? He claims everyone is uneducated and doesn't know what to vote for and does it himself.
Lol you're still watching their political discussions? I stopped primarily because of Tim (Greg, too as he is a bit of a SJW himself). I'm only here to read the comments.
I really do appreciate your guys ability to have these conversations.
Been waiting since the election for this - ANOTHER GUEST? FUCK
She's awesome! What are you talking about?
KF community is so unwelcoming sometimes....
I thought she was Nataly Portman for a sec lol
+di0, same here lol
Yea. Sorry to take a high brow convo to a low brow place but damn she is attractive. haha. Very well spoken too. Give her a discount next time she wants to come back.
Yeah. I thought she was pretty easy on the eyes. But hey, that's just my opinion...
Hah, so turns out that when I said was waiting for an hour and a half long discussion on the election for the GoG Show, I was actually just ten minutes off :P. You always deliver, KF crew :).
This was a really real episode. Thanks to all of you guys. Tim's speech in the middle was great. If anyone hasn't seen the Colin and Greg live from the day after the election watch it, its pretty great.
I have been waiting for this topic and I want to watch, but this show is my morning commute. I need them in the morning to give me a pick-me-up.
"Bill Clinton go fuck off." LMFAO
Wow. Tim. Exceptionally well spoken sir! your breakdown of your background in a way we haven't heard was the highlight of a tough topic. Much love.
james smith best part of this along with every part Colin shit on Hilary
Get some Ben Shapiro in your life.
Shawn Gabrish Colin doesn't like Ben because of what happened between him and Zoey Tur.
Shapiro's gonna be turning 35 real soon :)
Shawn Gabrish they need Shapiro Thug Life
when did Colin say that?
Shawn Gabrish sweet avatar
Thank you for doing an episode on this topic.
colin is the most intellectual badass ive ever seen, his debative personality is incredible and every time he talks is gold and hard to argue with
Tims shirt is a mix of nostalgia reminding me of roccos modern life and saved by the bell
great guest, can't wait for the other topics!!
this is probably the best podcast about the election I've listened to guys! kudos. I know you're not a general news network but I appreciate the level of knowledge and perspective you all bring to the table. all the best!
47:09-47:30 Find someone that looks at you the way miss movies looks at Nick
Colin definitely gets low-key annoyed as fuck when Tim cuts him off in the middle of his sentence to listen to his 2 cents.
Colin is immensely egotistical. Anyone that doesn't bow their head to him and say he's right becomes his greatest enemy. He says he's an academic that tries to look at both sides, but all he does is claim he's right and everyone's wrong because he's grown up with everyone telling him he's a genius.
Review Skadoo No, it's Tim in particular that creates that specific expression in Colin's demeanor. If it was Greg or Nick Colin seems a little more interested in what they have to say. Colin takes everything Tim says as baby talk. As he should.
Yo Tim, that monologue was amazing. Thank you
Thank you for this, Colin.
Ohhh I'm going to enjoy this.
Saw the length of the video and I thought they accidentally uploaded the full show XD
loved the episode, keep putting out more topics like this.
Nick's subtle "Scott Baio" at 6:54 made my day
Great topic, proud to see the change in Tim and not be afraid to say what he thinks
kinda wish there wasn't a guest for this topic I don't want them to hold anything back
Tyler Roach I liked this guest, she had things to say that added to the discussion. Liked hearing her stance on education as a teacher
I liked it. they stayed more professional and we got a hour and 20 minutes of real political talk
I was also brought to KindaFunny by the Max Landis episode. Thanks, Max!
That was a really good talk! Think it's really great of you be able to argue with one another and not always agree, yet keep a level head and have each other's backs.
Think you're awesome Tim for making an effort and getting more involved and Colin cred to you for being rock soild in your beliefs and being able to back them up! You guys are setting a good example for how these things should be talked about :D
What we have been waiting for
Give Tim a participation medal.
give you the awesome sarcastic comment medal
Nakatomi Power I think he's gotten enough of those already.
Nakatomi Power I think he made some very insightful and self awareness contributions here. Colin was right yet again. insulting people got us where we are today. Instead we need to be engaging in meaningful discussion and civilly amd honestly debate ideas. That is how this should go. Insults without arguments just prove you don't have an argument to make.
been waiting for this for awhile
Saw this topic in my feed and had to wait until I was emotionally ready to sit and watch it. Was totally engaged and really appreciated the mature conversation. Though I disagree with some of Colin's views, as smart as he is, I appreciate him, and I also appreciate Tim's feelings and what Greg added, too. This was really good guys. Props.
I think Tim doesn't realize that people's criticism stems from the fact that he speaks with an air of arrogance in addition to not knowing what he's talking about. It shows in how touchy he was in that little monologue. Seems like he's maybe opened up a bit, but I fear his bubble won't get much bigger if he stays on that Buzzfeed and Huffpo. lol
Ultimate Warrior Huh?
Very true, but Colin also speaks with an air of arrogance and, while very articulate and knowledgable about history, speaks definitively on things that are most certainly NOT definite.
What annoys me the most is that's he's openly ignorant, like he's says he doesn't know what you maybe going through and he doesn't care. He's trying but he always contradicts himself and get mad
I think it's just the way he talks that I find annoying. I don't know how to describe this but he talks like some Asians do and I don't mean that in a racist way whatsoever. I think passive aggressiveness is the right term. Like listen to the way Nick talks and you just want to listen to him and Tim is sorta tense when he speaks. At 1:00:07 you just wanna punch him
Usually criticise Tim when it comes to politics but he was very level headed today, 10/10 boi
easily my favorite episode of this show. Great points made and love hearing Colin go off on political topics.
I was really looking forward to this episode after the election! I hope you guys will talk more about the upcoming events regarding US politics.
Glad they recorded this out of order.
Holy shit, Tim had it rough.
Been waiting for this topic!
I have been waiting for this topic
49:10 low key the best moment from Tim ever on the show
Let's see, sleep or listen to Colin on the election?
I WILL SLEEP WHEN IM DEAD
Really good episode guys & lady!! Need more of this!! Awesomeness
Tim was fantastic in this. Really appreciate and relate to his feelings. Great work to all for a good, civil discussion.
People crying over this result, we've had it for months in Britain over Brexit. These sorts of people wanna see the country fail just to see themselves right.
Nick seems to have changed his mind on politics between episodes. Or at least made a decision. Not that it's bad, just an observation.
While politically, I usually really disagree with him, I really liked Tim in the episode. I have been worried him and Colin were going to get really mad in this episode. But they were both really cool and this was a great episode. I think this was Tim's best outing, and he really is coming into his own on these sorts of topics.
As always, great episode guys! Thank you for putting out such quality entertainment.
Jesse Malone thanks for a positive comment about Tim
What are you Tyson, his wife?
Chris Dynamo no, his husband. Lol
Colin, I appreciate you standing up for Tim. I'm glad I watched this episode.
Good on you Tim. you've really grown since kinda funny first started. Much respect.
This is a great episode to revisit. I'm still digging KF but I do miss Colin quite a bit, he rounded out the different voices in their group just perfectly.
Revisiting it in 2021. We were so young and naive about 2016 being nasty.
I miss Colin and it’s sad that he won’t ever be back in any KF content again
Its sad how toxic the community is about him, this episode and the episode where he talks about it before the election are both so civil, Greg seems super engaged etc
Colin leaving the party and shit talking trump the whole time but now if you bring him up in the community they act like hes a nazi, its so fucking weird
Skepticism isn't shaming.
Exactly.
My BOY Tim! Love it! Loved your rant there!
Holy shit. Over an hour. Ready to tune in
Shoutout to Tim. We all live in bubbles.
Dunno why the algorithm showed this to me in 2021 but man, it sure is quaint hearing how the 2016 election was the nastiest. Or predictions of what Trump would be like. Or Colin saying that he thinks Biden would have beat Trump. And especially Colin complaining about all the “crybabies out there contesting the results of the election”. God help the commenter that shows up in 2024 to respond to me about how quaint my comment is.
As much as I don't care to have political discussions, I'm always fascinated by the ones you guys have. Mad respect for you guys. This was a fantastic topic. Also, keep doin' you, Colin. And Tim, you rock, don't ever change.
hey hey guys, first time commenter on here but i found the topic of polling really interesting. I've worked in research and am currently doing my phd so the issue of polling is fascinating to me. The phenomenon that skews polling is called social desirability bias and is something that is present in almost any study that requires any form of data collection. It's extremely difficult to control for and in polling this would be a serious issue given peoples strong political beliefs. As a result of this I agree with anyone who doubts polls because they are beyond flawed, interesting that it's only recently that people have opened the discussion with regards to discarding the system. love the content you guys create and thanks for all of the hard work you put in :) byeee.
As much as I respect Colin for what he has to say, because he clearly does know what he's talking about, he just comes off smug as hell. He said 'i told you guys' so many times and i'm only 30 minutes through part 1, idk, just gives off a vibe (not just in this video, but a fair few others lately) where it seems like he thinks he's better than everyone else. Like you can be more educated than people on topics, you don't have to constantly remind them how better you are in regards to certain things constantly. And before the end of the election he told everyone to be gracious in defeat and then after the news that Trump won he kind of shat on Democrats (he can say whatever he wants because he didn't vote for Trump or whatever but clearly time and place and fresh wounds etc no need for I told you so's so soon - ref to Max Scoville's reactions and Danny O'Dwyer telling him to chill) so I thought that was a bit hypocritical. Kind of making it hard to watch kinda funny content with him in it now, hopefully these feels pass though as you guys have gotten me through some times.
(just to mention i'm Australian with no horse in the US presidential race, just as someone who hates arrogance to any extent)
Colin is over stating Romney's candidacy.
I don't remember hearing Mitt Romney being called Mussolini and I'm not saying it never happened but if it did, it was quite low on the radar. What I do remember is Mitt Romney coming across as disconnected from the working man. Trump (like many president's before him) convinced the public he is just like them. Romney did not.
There were a lot of statements that Romney made that were taken way out of context and twisted to sound like he meant something completely different and horrible.
jlindsa But the dems did try and label Romney as a racist, they tried the same tactic this time around, it's just that we didn't fall for it.

They do it to everyone. Not just candidates. Anyone who disagrees is a racist, bigot, homophobe. Every time. It eventually backfired and that's why we have Trump. I assume he will be a 1 term president, but he may not be if the left doesn't learn. They're in the streets rioting, assaulting, etc. The rest of America, especially the 'neutral' American who isn't already left or right... sees stuff like that and realizes how immature it is. This is what pushed people to Trump in the first place and if they keep it up, it may get him re elected.
This was the best post election breakdown I have seen yet! I think they did a great job of not being too partisan. Also Miss Movies is awesome. She needs to be back on The Film Vault!
This was such a good show! By far one of my favorites, simply due to the fact that even though they have differentiating opinions, they still show respect to one another. Special props to Tim and Colin for for their passionate thoughts.
I'm an hour into this so far & Tim is alright guys. I feel for him in this one. If you take the time to watch it whenever you have the chance you'll see it for yourselves. Wish I was better with my words but it's ....5 in the morning!!! Holy fuck.
Powerful words Tim.
thank you Colin I feel less alone now. non hyberbolous commentary has been impossible to find.
I came here thru the max landis episode too and watched all episodes to catch up right before the studio change
Over an hour long topic... oh shit guys, we're in for a doozy. Brace yourselves.
Damn, Timothy.
Amazing conversation, guys.
That was some real talk from Tim, lots of respect for that. Freaking amazing dude.
Oh thank Shuhei!!!
Happy to see Tim being more mature in this one.
I've always been a Tim fan, but learning about his dad after losing my dad the same way recently just made me like him even more. ❤️
I like the way they try to end the discussion several times! I counted at least 5 attempts.
