Have wasted another night here on OPP, hoping to read and engage in meaningful discourse. Seems that this forum has became a place for everyone that h**es President Trump to post. If a person does post a subject for civil discussion it is soon taken over by the Trolls. The more that we try to reason and find common ground, the nastier they become. Before I respond to a thread, I read the whole thread. As soon as it's taken over by those here that are only wanting conflict instead of comprise and respect for conflicting opinions, I opt out. Unless someone pisses me off. Thought OPP was promoting a place for civil discussion, instead has turned into a forum for "H**e Trump". Pity, an example of what is wrong in this country. Everything that is wrong in this country can not always be related to President Trump. We to are to blame because We The People have lost control of our government. What I truly can not understand is the obsession these people have with their hatred. We are all Americans. I did not like President Obama, he was my last Commander in Chief, respected the office. Served under eight Presidents. That being said, although I did not approve of his policies and decisions, I never lost the understanding that it's not about whomever is the President it's about America. About Americans having the freedom to express their opinions and respecting other opinions. Being able to come to an understanding, compromise. Without h**e. Seems that has been lost once again on OPP.

A h**e Trump forum? The number of negative posts about Trump, is dwarfed by the number of h**e Hillary, h**e Obama, h**e liberals, h**e progressives posts. Way back when Obama was still President, I started a thread about the dangers of disrespecting the Office of the President, showing how h**eful online comments about the sitting President aided and abetted America's enemies. You should have seen the volume of vitriol that came my way, with every "h**e Obama" poster making a case justifying their non stop criticism and derision of the President

Then came the 2016 e******n circus. During the primaries, everyone was at everyone else's throat, castigating every candidate other than the one THEY favored. After that fiasco, a new round of horse pucky began. The number of vitriolic posts aimed at Hillary Clinton, overwhelmed the number of "go Trump" posts, and believe it or not - even though both Obama and Clinton are OUT of government, they are still favored targets on this site.

No, if you'd been here in 2015 & 2016, you'd have posted disgust about this site being a "h**e Obama" forum...................unless you h**ed Obama.

Thank you Sarge. Excellent. We have become so polarized that many are willing to throw away the rule of law so they can get what they perceive as a win. D********g. I have studied a lot on how to recognize trolls. Amazing once you know what to look for. This site is full of them. It is best just to ignore them since they are not here to discuss. One sure way to identify a troll is to give them a specific question about the subject. If they are trolling they usually will obfuscate, insult, or change the subject. Their favorite parlor trick is to lay out reams of innuendo with no facts.

As a supporter of President Trump since the day he descended the escalator, into U.S. history, turmoil, controversy, and many more victories than anyone would have dreamed possible, I agree with you.

President Trump has not lied to his supporters. He has and is attempting to keep all of his promises, and as an added undeserved bonus, he never ceases to be entertaining.

His supporters have not been brainwashed. We are cool, clear eyed and in reasonably full possession of our faculties.

All those who did and do oppose him have lost their collective minds.

It can be seen daily here on OPP where once sane individuals now foam at the mouth at the mention of his name. It can be seen in the Media, in Hollywood, and in any gathering of Democrats, where straight jackets, poised to be forcibly worn, should lie in wait.

By attempting to hold the funding for upgrading and resupplying of the U.S. military with needed equipment and armaments, hostage to superfluous funding for pet domestic projects, the Democrats have been perilously close to being treasonous, and unfortunately, some RINOs can be included in that number.

The lack of patriotism exhibited by those who would obstruct this president as he attempts to fulfill even the smallest
of his prescribed duties to keep this country viable is a disgrace.

It is only through his own determination, strength of will, and the grace of God, that President Trump has been able to achieve the things he has (or anything at all) since his inauguration.

It will soon reach a point where all reasonable American citizens will, for the survival of their own families, communities, culture, and nation, be forced to, in unison, declare "ENOUGH."

Bravo, Zemirah, bravo!

"ENOUGH"!
Oh yeah, we've had more than ENOUGH of liberal progressive vanity, hatred, arrogance, hypocrisy, prejudice, immorality, intolerance, debauchery, d******eness, r****m, selfishness, conceit, deception, lies, godlessness, wrath, greed, sloth, p***e, lust, envy, and gluttony. And, in many cases, treason. (Almost Biblical, did I leave anything out?)

And, if anyone thinks I am referring only to democrats, you can forget the party affiliations simply because this crisis isn't about political parties, it's about the insidious and destructive nature of an ideology founded upon abstract concepts and built on an artificial framework. There are many in all political parties who have succumbed to it.
