Really clever repartee, there #1. If I wanted to engage in 8th grade snarky, I would ask if you were hungry, but I would really rather discuss why we align politically, as we do.

If it is possible to put the emotional partisanship, aside and discuss our ideologies, rationally... we might accomplish an understanding, or even give others something to consider.

I am not a Republican and did not v**e for Trump in the Texas Primaries. I could not v**e for Hillary and as a Constitutional Conservative, I have been surprised and pleased, at how well the President has performed his official duties. I do not care for his public demeanor, especially the tweets and chest pounding.

The President's personality, in my opinion, is not how he should be judged. Performance is everything, in how he manages the economy, the military, immigration and foreign affairs. No one does everything perfect and all president's flaws are magnified, by media, so finding fault is not difficult, nor has it ever been.

No other president' s fault was magnified more by liberal media assholes than this President!!

#1, engaging these negative slights, on their chosen emotional level is really futile. Pi$$in' in the wind, my friend! If they will not, or cannot articulate their case, rationally... don't get in the gutter with them.

I hear you, not so easy to take the BS.

No maam, but that was not the point, that I was trying to make! Lincoln, a republican was assassinated and Kennedy a Democrat was assassinated. I would say they both had some pretty bad press and some inflamed h**ers, wouldn't you?

Decency forbids mentioning the vast majority of Trump's faults and shortcomings.

Well, we found something there, that we can agree on, kemmer! Most of us have crossed over accepted moral lines, at one time or another. I am certainly no saint, but much improved, since my youth. I did hear a preacher say once, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"!

I have said, "I did not care much for Trump, before he became president" and I still cringe at some of his ill-advised tweets and arrogant behavior, but I don't know any billionaires, that gives a damn whether I approve of their behavior, or not. Of course, I know if l were wealthy, I wouldn't worry what others thought, so much.

His personality is what it is, so I try to focus on the job he is doing. I am better off now, than I have been in a long time. My wife and I own a small business and we have had a couple of great years. The country still has a lot of problems, the C****av***s and situation with China looms large. Trump is better suited than Biden, for the challenges ahead. The economy has taken a terrible hit and will take years to rebuild.

I see Trump winning, while being undermined by his adversaries and a hostile media, that he constantly agitates. He doesn't inspire co-operation, unless he is in complete control and that is his biggest fault. A lot of
leaders are My Way Or The Highway, kinda guys. Truman fired General Douglas Mac Arthur, a WWII Hero, and 4 Star General. Middleclass Democrat Truman was temperamental and a lot like Trump, but never rich.

President Trump certainly agitates, seems to enjoy stirring them up.
Could be his way of having some fun.

Disruption is Trump's stock in trade, which would be fine if he had the brains and intelligence to back it up, but he doesn't. If he can't get his way by bullying, he has no other resources.

If only that were true.

He is dismantling all controls on the Executive branch, and unless the Congress or SCOTUS start opposing him, he will have the power of the federal government at his disposal. I think Mr. Trump had a plan all along, and the intelligence to see it through.

It's just not a plan I want to come to fruition. An all powerful executive is not what I think the founders had in mind for the office. There's a reason Article 1 of the constitution deals with the legislative branch....it was the most important branch. Ideally, it is where Americans, in all their incarnations, meet.

I sincerely doubt the country will survive a strongman like Executive branch. Especially one who is not interested in unifying the country. My guess is that a Trump re e******n with a minority of the v**es cast will end in the dis integration of the country within 20 years.

Crazy things happen in times of upheaval....didn't take the USSR any time at all to disappear.

You just cannot resist an opportunity for a jab at our President Trump.
Only showing your ignorance and stupidy.

kemmer

I don’t think Trump is capable of planning anything. He’s totally reactionary. A cable news harangue can change his mind about anything.

kemmer

Nope. Trump’s.
