Trump Tells Freshman Congresswomen to ‘Go Back’ to the Countries They Came From

I spent 35 years in the private sector working for a fortune 500 company and had many Presidents and CEO's come and go during that period of time, some good and some bad none of whom changed my behavior and I stayed with the company not because of the CEO but because I loved my job. What you want is an American idol President and appear to be totally ignorant as to the three equal branches of gov't and the roles and responsibilities of the President. PROVIDE for the Common defense AND PROMOTE Domestic Welfare through strong economic policies. Nowhere do I see where he has to be liked

You still haven't answered my question, and as always misrepresent what I clearly stated. Nowhere in my comment did I say personality was the primary attribute for me, but since you are a single track thinker, you can't seem to help yourself. To make matters worse you take these ridiculous cheap shots to compensate for your inability to accept different opinions. So for the third time, how did Obama hurt you or your family?
 
In that case you're not as smart as I gave you credit for. lol

Nothing but lies and distortions from the left. Why did we expect anything different? It's what they do.

No. Nothing but lies and distortion from you lot. This is pure unadulterated racist rhetoric. End of story.

You excuse racism. You disgust me.
 
Nope, just a keen observer wit some snap for bull****.

No wit if it's you. Just bull****, usual and par for the course with conservatives.

Suggest you read the posts here from others who saw their insurance premiums rise but more importantly Obama hurt the country with his lack of understanding of the private sector and promotion of the public sector and entitlements. We had 8 years of sub standard economic growth especially coming off what the left called the worst recession since the Great Depression. He politicized the IRS, the FBI, the Justice Department which affects every American and if you want to look at corruption look no further than the Obama Administration

I guess you're not going to answer the question; I didn't ask anyone else other than you so what happened to others isn't the topic. How did the politicization of the IRS, FBI, Justice Department hurt you personally? I suspect you'll come back with another deflection that doesn't address my direct questions because it's what you do. So I'll take your lack of a direct response to my question as: "nothing happened to me or my family, but I disagreed with his policies". Conversely, many feel the same way about Trump but for different reasons that are valid to them.

The violation of the rule of law hurts every American but in case you missed it I have answered your question, aside from taking the country to war and promoting an anti private sector economic policy no President has hurt me personally thus I have attacked no President personally unlike most radicals here. Why the personal attacks against Trump and totally ignoring the results generated?
 
And you're besotted by a criminal, psychopathological liar, racist, serial sexual predator and financial fraud. Trump's "results" have been a string of failures, tax fraud, massive debt and being beholden to Russian oligarchs.

Don't forget the p**** grabbing.

That wasn't so hard was it?

As for Trump, you may have missed all of the personal attacks he's made against his opponents; this in turn makes the responses to him personal. It's odd that you don't understand the very simple dynamic of people responding to anger and aggression with anger and aggression. At the most basic level it's similar to the parent/child relationship: if parents respond angrily to an already angry child, it tends to get a similar response back. So if you're in a leadership role you can either help diffuse it or you play the same game. Trump chose the latter and then complains about the response. So if I show up to your house with the most delicious pie ever, but insult your family, which one are you likely to remember more?
 
They could one-up the service offered by Medicare. That's generally how competition works.

He prefers Corporate Elitism, where Insurance CEOs take a healthy chunk out of every claim. And over the years, premiums have gone Up-Up-Up, so that other Corporate CEOs could garner larger bonuses.
 
So what CEO forced you to work for the company? Suckers are better known as liberals who spend money in the name of compassion because it makes the feel good but never solves a social problem just creates dependence. What a bunch of leftwing BS and typical class envy, jealousy

Still waiting for that magic plan from you, on your ridiculous views to turn welfare over to the churches.

Politics are disgusting but the personal attacks from Trump pale in comparison to the attacks from the left since November 2016. I focus on results and not rhetoric and the left has nothing to run on other than hatred for Trump. Think that is a winning strategy? Did Trump show up at your house and insult your family?

There is no magic plan but if there was one it comes from the state and local communities not federal bureaucrats
 
The OP is

Trump Tells Freshman Congresswomen to ‘Go Back’ to the Countries They Came From - The New York Times


Clear that Trump learned a new word from the UK Ambassador
This racist crap will only be more hateful and used by the Child in Chief

Now I await the hordes of Trump apologists

3 were born in the US. No matter to Trump they ain't from Norway

Many on the right state he is not a racist. Then again he does use a number of racist tropes when speaking
Good people on both sides-right?
 
Their were 4 Homogeneous white countries with a European background in the western hemisphere during the 19th & for the most the 20th century.
The USA, Canada, Uruguay & Argentina in the last 40 years Canada & the US have become multi-cultural. If what the actuaries suggest that by 2050
America will become a boarding house for the world with squatters of every creed & color assembling what will hold, America together, likely nothing.
The area we call the USA will become a mere geographical location.

https://www2.census.gov/library/publications/decennial/1950/pc-07/pc-7-01.pdf
Population 1950 150,000,000
White 135,000,000
Negro 15,000,000
Hispanic 3,000,000
Other 600,000

Population 2010 310,000,000
White 220,000,000
Negro 39,000,000
Hispanic 50,000,000
Other 19,000,000

Democracies work best in homogeneous states, in diverse countries with each little segment of society vying for their piece of the pie it becomes
a toxic cocktail! 'Always it's Sameness that dominates! People favor friendships with those of similar backgrounds, interests
& values. Despite a few exceptions the urge is almost universal. Ethnonationalism is why almost every country has been formed.
Diversity throughout history has torn nations apart.

Ethnonationalism is not resurgent it never died.
It continues to be & nearly always has been the world in which we live in the most powerful movement.
IIt outlasted Marxism tearing apart the USSR. Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova & the Caucusus followed suite
& then went the 5 nations of Central Asia. That was not the end only the beginning, minorities inside the new nations wanted their
place in the sun & the Caucasus became the 20th century Balkans. This is just the primary example of many other breakups throughout
the world demonstrating the pull of ethnonationalism.

You aren't taking it far enough. Tribalism is the way to go. All countries involve political division, not homogeneity. Tribalism is better at keeping people with their own kind. Nationalism is made up l put loosely connected tribes in power over other tribes. Nationalism destroys the purity of tribalism.

I voted for Trump to get the results we are getting today, not on his personality and I will vote for him again as a reward for those results.

The thing is Trump continued making all sorts of absurd statements and personal attacks throughout his presidency. Had he been civil and the press attacked him regardless, I'd be more inclined to agree it's a one sided affair, however he continues to add fuel to the fire. The media in general is no better, but their business model is to attract viewers so all of the conflict just helps boost their ratings. I think it's all a disgrace from both sides of it, but since no one has the courage to stop the cycle it will go on until it reaches critical mass. The challengers do have more than hatred and have been communicating their visions, but all of that is being drowned out by the consistent circus. The media has the power to shift the focus to which ever issue it wants, but they know what pays the bills, and long discussions about policy don't get the ad sales dollars.

Nope, Trump hasn't shown up at my house and insulted me, but I find his manner leadership repulsive in spite of the state of the economy. I don't not believe the economy will suddenly tank if someone else wins the election, so that aspect is not one that keeps me up at night. I'm not at a point where I want people of low character rewarded regardless of what they bring to the table; when I am I'll be happy to vote in the Madoffs and Shkrelis of the world. They made boat load of money too.

I've worked at several Fortune 500 companies and had a similar experience with senior leadership, but none behaved like Trump has publicly so there's no real comparison. The management down the ladder that fostered divisive tactics and poor work environments didn't last very long because short term gains are fine, but eventually when their staff retention goes to the toilet and it gets noticed they were often shown the door. What I will say is that when we had a charismatic leader who fostered inclusion and creativity, it was a much better environment than when it went "corporate". The divisiveness, paranoia, led to people working in silos and not cooperatively. Who you are as a person (or what you choose to project) is perceptible to others in ways other than just the superficial; especially if you're in a position of leadership. I don't know about you, but I grew up being taught that one doesn't reward bad behavior and it seems to me you just want to look the other way on not only his poor tactics but his failure as a leader.

Personality of Trump sucks but quite frankly the alternative was much worse. I chose wisely and will do the same in 2020, If I wanted the perfect candidate for me, I would run

How many CEOs did you vote for?

Rewarding failure is a bad idea. Unfortunately it happens far too often in business and politics.

This post explains perfectly your support for Trump. You share a key trait with him.
 
Not sure what country you live in but it isn't this one where people are innocent UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY!! All your name calling is childish and show just how poorly educated and informed you are. You buy what you are told and ignore reality. What Trump supposedly did prior to taking office is irrelevant, no indictments and nothing but political posturing by opponents none of whom including you want this country to succeed. Keep using those tired old Liberal phrases and baseless charges all in hopes of doing what? You think your opinion is going to change anyone else's mind?

I'm not sure what moral standard you live by but how does it permit you worship a serial lying, racist, narcissistic rage baby?

What part of innocent until proven guilty don't you understand? After Obama and Clinton your credibility is suspect

In just two brief sentences you first called attention to your own hypocrisy (since when did the right produce proof before screaming "guilty" at every liberal with the slimmest if any evidence?) and cited two very good examples of that kind of vigilante mindset.
