I do not understand why two Americans, one on the left and one on the right, cannot still be friends.

If I support Trump, I am still American
If I support Clinton, I am still American
If I am against a******n, I am still American
If I am for a******n, I am still American
If I am a Liberal Democrat, I am still American
If I am a Conservative Republican, I am still American.

Conservatives complained about the content of the Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy, and American Dad.........
Yet Bugs Bunny and Wild E Coyote were removed from television because of "inciting violence"....the cartoon was too violent.

Conservatives complained about the actions of Bill Clinton, and Obama.................
Yet Trump and Trump supporters and anyone who works for Trump are attacked violently.

Bobby Kennedy never advocated violence.........
Yet Maxine Water does........

Bobby Kennedy diffused an angry crowd by saying, "Not too long ago, I had a brother who too was k**led by a white man."
Maxine Waters calls for liberals to "make crowds and push back" inciting a r**t. She is responsible for the deaths of those in the DC news room and threats against Paul Ryan.

John McCain chastised Donald Trump by saying, "We have a long tradition of peaceful t******r of p***r". Trump listened, Maxine Waters and the Liberals didn't.

Donald Trump is the President of the United States and he is entrusted with the security of the people.
This rebellious behavior of the Democrats must stop...........

Remember history..........

Abraham Lincoln was a republican president who was not popular.
Abraham Lincoln fought to hold the country together.
Abraham Lincoln is remembered for "Freeing the S***es" and helping to "Preserve the Union"

The Democrats were against Abraham Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln was k**led by a Hollywood Democrat.....John Wilkes Booth in a theater.

Funny thing about Democrats and Republicans.

Democrats represent the youth of the country. The young and full of energy.
Republicans represent the old of the country. The wise.

When I was young during the Reagan administration I was against intolerable conservatives. As I grow older, I find myself against intolerable liberals.

I must declare for the world to see, that I believe that the Democrat party should be dissolved for they are rebelling against the president of the United States.
The southern Dixie rebels are being replaced by the progressive/liberal Democrat party. The Dixie Rebels fought and died in Gettysburg along side their brothers the Republicans.

Now, I ask every liberal, what is it going to take for you to stop rebelling against this nation of ours?
What is it that angers you so much about Donald Trump?
Why is it that your deep rooted anger is that of a Klu Klux Klan member?
Why is it that you are so intolerant that you cannot see reason?

A civil war is on the horizon, Donald Trump is doing his best to help the nation. Why not jump on board and help him with your valuable suggestions, rather than turn intolerable and not listen to reason? Donald is just doing his job in accordance to the laws passed by Congress, he is not your enemy. Your anger is misguided and misaligned. You wish to fight and take it out on a person who is not responsible, Congress is.

Come forth and let your voice be heard. Cast to congress, what your issue is and solve the issue. Quit brewing and causing senseless murders in the public forum. Rather work with your conservative brothers and sisters for a new great nation, a new great America, rather than fight us. For it is not worth it.

If you think it is, just ask the souls at the small field in Pennsylvania, now immortalized as "Gettysburg"

God Bless all Americans!

My opposition is based on his decisions which I believe are Ill considered, reckless and wrong. The tax cut will result in gigantic deficits and a monstrous national debt. Trump based his decision on a gut feeling that the extra money people will have because of the tax cut will create jobs. The problem is that the country is at full employment. Every economist I've read says that running deficits with full employment results in inflation. And it has. It seems that everything either costs more or has shrunk in size. The tax give away to the greedy rich will concentrate wealth in select few, while leaving millions in grinding poverty.

Excellent post; brother I totally agree with you.

Their is only ONE AMERICA the one our forefathers founded this great nation on Christian principles.

Our constitution our forefathers drew up has been the light to show the way. Yet some misinformed, I want to say Satinac possed people want to change our beloved country.

America was conceived as a God loving free society. Satan, blinding a few weak lazy greedy generations want to destroy another garden of Eden like he did once before.

These blinded Socialist Democrats want a Dictatorship (satan) to rule the s***es.

God forbid. Bruise the head again and cast him from among your people.

$21,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx vs $21,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx is huge. Obama left office at 5.4 % unemployment it is now 3.8 Now for your shrinking, most everything since the 60's has shrunk and the price has risen.
3% of $10,000 vs 3% of $100,000, which is more?

If you're in a bus with your family and you can't get off, but the bus driver is on a road which you know will have the bus go off a cliff if the driver doesn't change directions, but he speeds up. Should you sit placidly while the disaster comes about? I don't think so. Complain and make as much commotion as possible to convince the other passengers they are on a bus to destruction.

If I'm on a bus, with my family, and we cannot get off, but the bus driver is on a road which I know will have the bus go off a cliff if the driver doesn't change directions, I will speak up.

However, in my experience, there are two ways of speaking up. The right way and the wrong way. If I approach the front of the bus and grab the wheel(ie what Maxine Waters has attempted), the bus will crash. If I convince the driver however, to take it easy down the road and ensure the other passengers that it would be okay, then there is a good possibility that the bus will not go off the cliff. Through peaceful persuasion and reasonable speech, the driver of the bus may come to his senses. There comes a point where it doesn't matter and its every person for themselves, and since the passengers of the Titanic, are trying to save their own lives, they don't have time to stop and save another. To avoid such a horrendous situation, doesn't it make sense to tell the bus driver, ideas that are more than likely plausible, then turning a deaf ear to that which has control?

I agree with your statement and all of the statement, if not true is being proven true. However that identifies the problem---intolerance! See, Liberals, Democrats, Progressives do not like being bullied as much as conservatives do not like being bullied. I get that. Destroy the intolerance and peace is restored.

Look guys, take heed on this:

From Nov. 1991 until June 1993, I served in the Navy, as a non-designated Airman(E3 and below) on Naval Air Station Leeward side, Guantanamo Bay Cuba.
My duties included, recovering, fueling, loading/unloading passengers and cargo, and launching aircraft. The Air Force at that time provided the Aircraft and the Navy provided the ground personnel.

There were only five people who worked the cargo division of Air Terminal Operations.

Then by mid 1992, the Haitians were picked up by the United States Coast Guard. Apparently, a couple of Haitians who were s**k of their government and the way they were living, built a raft and headed north. The Coast Guard picked them up, and when the news hit, other Haitians followed suit. Soon the Coast Guard ships were full of Haitians. At that time, the Coast Guard was part of the Department of the Treasury, and did not have the power it has today in the department of Homeland Security. Therefore, the Haitians could not go home, and the Coast Guard could not bring them to the United States. Therefore, the Coast Guard Brought them to Naval Station Guantanamo Bay.

The Base jumped into action, and created a Haitian camp for processing on windward side of the base. The old hanger on windward was converted into a refugee camp. Meanwhile, the Air Force began increasing its flights by sending a C-5 once a day with humanitarian supplies to the Island. Now mind you there was only five of us in cargo, who had to unload, the humanitarian supplies and load them on to trucks for the refugee camp. We became overly strained within a matter of days.

To make matters worse, Hurricane Andrew hit Louisiana and western Florida, destroying Homestead Air Force Base. In a matter of 7 days, with the help of my fellow sailors, marines, and airmen, we up loaded 7 C-5 aircraft bound for Homestead. We had to re-palletize the humanitarian supplies, then load them on the aircraft. With five of us at cargo, we asked the base for help. We worked until we could not work no more. 210 tons of cargo was sent within 7 days to Homestead.

At one point, myself and a friend, sitting on a forklift and a loader, turned to each other in amazement at the sight. Every color, creed, religion, were working together for a common cause. We were saving lives, and it didn't matter what lives. It didn't matter who they were, just that mother nature destroyed Homestead. And they needed help.

At the end of the operation we at cargo were awarded the Humanitarian award and a letter of commendation from the Atlantic Fleet.

Now this is the America, I remember!

In the end, when the bus is falling from the cliff, does it really matter who was driving it?
