I hear your same "anti-whine" all the time. Ignore all that is wrong with Trump because, well, he got elected, so tough. You're just crying because Hillary lost. Ridiculous. Agree or not with me, I find things wrong with Trump. I should shut up and not share that opinion because he won the e******n? All possible objections to his words, policies, and actions should immediately cease and desist because he is POTUS? That not to do so is to "whine, bellyache, seek help, perhaps r**t etc. over Trump being in office"? No. Crazy stuff.

Spineless, fence-sitting, mealy-mouth whores of complacency and opportunism. Or some would say that. Personally, I say a deliberate thinker. No matter how people my want to categorize me as a "Demorat," Liberal, Socialist, Soros-puppet, hardliner Lefty, any party affiliation to me is admitting unwanted bias and a failure of reason. Things appearing to be Left or Right is an optical illusion. Nothing is purely or maybe even mostly Left or Right. There is T***h, and it usually goes beyond Left or Right.

Plucking out your left or right eye to see clearer is insane; so is taking a Right or Left pov as where you stand on anything. The Big Picture demands the full perspective of two eyes, of two sides. Shading, background, nuance, light, arrangement of elements, seeming connections, missing factors, seeming contradictions, anomalies, and so forth. An objective view is not necessarily the best; a subjective view is not necessarily the worst. Where does the balance come?

Not in Party loyalty certainly. We all need checks and balances to our beliefs, or should. Of course, depending on the sincerity of heart to do what is best for our citizens and this country, results will greatly vary. Yet an earnest attempt to find the T***h or facts or evidence demands what is called "playing the Devil's Advocate," rigorously looking to defeat our own view.

When I "go after Trump," I am not attacking him but merely reporting. My statements can all be verified. That you may disagree with those statements still does not make them an attack. There are standards, principles, laws and ethics in place in America to measure, with some precision, any possible violations. Any of my comments about the president that were negative appeared, to me, to violate those standards, principles, laws and ethics. My opinion based on critical thinking, not knee-jerk or Tribal reaction. Yes, I may be wrong, though instead of counter-arguments I usually only get insults. It is my opinion based on how I see this nation and trying to give the best benefit of a doubt. That does not make me right or a place of higher ground.

Here are the rules for radicals from Saul Alinsky.

1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.
2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.
3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.
4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can k**l them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
7. “A tactic that d**gs on too long becomes a d**g.” Don’t become old news.
8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.
10. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition." It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.
11. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.
13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.

Most of your posts are pretty good and I have not big problem with them. or any problem.

I watch the network NBC, BBC and PBS for the most part..

I rarely watch any that I consider alt-right or alternative media.. When I have done so, they seem foolish to the junior high level..

In all honesty, I can not see how the Democrat party can be seen as c*******t..

what I see is a platform which contains policies which are a help to the middle and working people of this country..

This week.. nearly everything seems to be a conservatives dream and if not having an immediate effect, will have in a few years time..

Oh what Bulls**t Steven! Look at our Constitution and it tells you right there religion--much less Christianity--has NO roll in government.

(Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;)

If the above is true then explain how how any religion, much less Christianity, can dominate the construction of our laws? No law respecting the establishment of...or laws preventing the free exercise thereof!

That means you have complete freedom of your religious beliefs but you can't position those religious beliefs over others--no matter how misguided our current court is!!! Do you understand or is the meaning slipping away?

As for your biblical predictions they are nothing but more bulls**t. First there is no increase in volcanic eruptions, or earthquakes, nor is there an increase in tropical storms. Your belief that there is, is biblical bulls**t, and if there is a single prediction in your bible that has come true than point it out; I am willing to bet I can make an equal argument to debunk it. You've immersed yourself in fallacies Steven and left it up to others to straighten them out. The sad thing is no matter straight one might make your argument you are unlikely to believe it...

I have no doubt that everything fits Stevie--your logical fallacies are constructed so that they do. That doesn't mean that anything you see is true though because I know for a fact that you've missed on my ideology by a bakers mile. You people go on about totalitarianism and then you completely embrace an authoritarian like Donald J! Do you not understand the saying: six of one and half a dozen of the other? If you see the one as dangerous how is it you can't recognize the danger of the other--or do you not understand that men like Hitler, Kim Jong Un, Putin, and Trump are all authoritarian? As a liberal Steve I can recognize the pitfalls of Marxism--so know to avoid them--whereas you are completely blind to the trappings of the f*****m that you conservatives have so eagerly embraced!

As I've told other Conservative Christian theists on this board: Beware of False Prophets. Your own god told you this Steven and then you totally ignore it's meaning! You go on about goodness and then you don't recognize the evil unleashed when you allow your King Donald to separate mother from child because he thinks 'teaching them a lesson' in his purview as President to teach them! Does not the sickness of such an act sink in?

You have no right to lecture Steven when you yourself have driven so far off the track...
