No I am saying that those who hate Trump tend to think of themselves as the Universe's gift to humans.....all smart and pure of course.....and those who like Trump as the opposite.

Ya, No.

Well, this gift to humanity has to hit the hay. Talk to ya tamale.
 
In my opinion, unions have been so weakened by corporate pressure and fear of jobs being shipped overseas they've been rendered ineffective.

Regarding your opinion of the influence of the MSM:

1. If the "liberal media" is so powerful, then how does one explain:
a. Trump's victory over Clinton; and
b. The Democrat's loss of the last 4 special elections?

other forces were more powerful. a proper investigative press would have probably prevented Obama from winning He was the pet of the MSM

Unions are extremely strong in some states and many big cities. I don't think there should be any restrictions on people spending money to promote the candidates they want. I don't see anything in the constitution that gives the federal government that power

Trump has respect for the office he holds

But the rabid leftwing chooses to given him an rectal exam each morning looking for any fact or fiction that they can bash him for

Our country is now in serious and unprecedented trouble...like never before.

This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!

Lets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice! The world is laughing at us.

We can't let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!

The phony electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation. The loser one!

He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!


More Votes equals a loss...revolution!

:wink:

the loser one? was the winner two?

LOL bring on the revolution
 
First & foremost, he does have a problem with Twitter, lets just get that out of the way right now. Apparently he has the damn thing set up on his hip like a freaking dialysis machine at this point, and like all the little hipsters out there. He will most likely shrivel up & die without its power.

He also has no real connecting power within the White House at this time, with all of the seats, and houses separated by the multitudes of hurt feelings, and mud slinging over the election. They are having a hard time getting their heads straight for some of the same reasons we have when someone cuts us off while trying to merge in traffic.
 
His major shortcoming isn't on the list. His major shortcoming is his ego. He is so used to getting what he wants and believing that he can do it better than anyone else that he cannot function in the role of President. It is why he has yet to accomplish anything in 6 months.

That's a good answer except I believe in spite of that particular shortcoming he will prod through and be able to accomplish
some of the issues he is championing. I do think he will be successful in a re-election bid after looking at the sports book odds
of the current Democratic frontrunners who are:

Warren 8 to 1
Harris 10 to 1
Mrs. Obama 18 to 1
Biden 20 to 1
Sanders 20 to 1
Zuckerman 24 to 1
Booker 28 to 1

The only one I'd be afraid of is Harris; she's black, she's a woman & she's a new face
 
I have yet to see any credible proof about your charges about Trump. and Claiming voting for Trump rather than the Clinton Crime family is choosing Russia over America is so stupid its hilarious to believe any breathing adult could believe such nonsense. we don't want America to burn (unlike many on the far left) we do enjoy watching snowflakes melt

Hillary Clinton was convicted of NO crime. The 1%er organization, Judicial Watch, made up all the allegations, with their massive budget and staff of 50 lawyers and investigators, that do nothing but file defamation lawsuits against Democrats. They also filed over 300 lawsuits against Obama.
 
Seems to me, it is the GOP controlled House and Senate who are doing the most wrong, by NOT DOING A GOD DAMN THING.

I'm not sure what they're waiting on. It's like they got so good at obstructing that they forgot how to govern.
 
we will leave those who post on the gun threads to decide. since you play evasive games as to what you stand for, the ambiguity will be construed against you.
You know exactly where I stand, but you can't admit those positions. That's your problem.
 
I honestly believe that Trump thought he could come in as President and run it like he runs his company....without having to be accountable to anyone....demanding absolute loyalty from all his underlings and believing that he could just threaten and push people around. He found out from day 1 that it doesn't work that way and he has no other plan so he is just floundering. This is why his presidency has been an absolute disaster.


Who knew Presedenting would be so hard???
 
Long list to choose from, but I would say his refusal to read. Anything.

If nothing else we can talk about Seattle.

I have tons to say on that.

You wont like it.

PROMISE

:2wave:

I live in North King County, bordering on Snohomish County. Have at it!

your posts are among the most evasive and obtuse on this board.
 
His lack of competence does that quite nicely.

why don't you educate me on what you think competence to be president requires and why Trump doesn't meet your definition. then establish that your definitions are ones that other citizens should adopt.

Ah, so a free press should only hold Democrats, not Republicans accountable and it's ok for oligarchs to influence politicians but not collective bargaining organizations representing the working American.

Thanks for setting me straight on that!

Why should he?

have you actually done any research? since the 1988 election, (or earlier) 85-90% of the media members covering presidential elections have admitted to voting for the DEMOCRAT. The positive to negative ratio of stories have always favored the Democrat over the Republican. The fawning favorable press Obama received was unparalleled while the negative stories about McCain and then Romney were more pronounced. Hillary was the darling of the press and the late night talk shows constantly bashed Trump

I have no problems with Union members s supporting Democrats as long as the BECK decision was enforced by the DOL-something Clinton and Obama did not promote
 
I respectfully disagree with your first sentence, all his behavior projects a total disrespect for the office. Your second sentence is only a symptom of your stark hatred of anyone who criticizes Trump. Like many Trump supporters you take any criticism of Trump personally.

Most lilberal critics of trump are personally offended by him in addition to wanting to stop his agenda - trump voters agenda - dead in its tracks

When I know that their purpose is totally opposit of mine I take that very seriously

In short the left has personalized its beef with trump and the backlash to that is sometimes personal also

So personal has our politics become that partisans are beginning to attack each other physically and even attempt murder

I take that development seriously also
 
as your posting style becomes more familiar, I suspect others will agree with me
Probably not. We all know who and what you are in most minds here: a contrary libertarian leaning person full of himself. But you certainly are not the only one.
