Good to see you again.
I'm asking all reasonable conservatives what they're waiting for with a 'President Pence'.
I can assure you my more liberal friends aren't happy with me for saying those two words.
It's incredulous to me that regular GOPs don't see the practicality of a President Pence at this PMA.
PMA = Perilous Moment of Awareness.
Any one of these scandals from the current CinC would have impeached ANY of the previous 44 Presidents.
Let's get back to the Great Opportunity Party of Lincoln, TR, and IKE ...
I haven't seen any criminal charges brought against President Trump. He was duly elected and entitled to hold office under our election rules. He was definitely a backlash candidate; he touched a chord with the millions of people who haven't fared so well under globalization and liberal policies. I don't consider him either a Republican nor a Democrat; he is not ideological that I can see. He is a populist. He is coarse and rude; but so is the MSM who go after him on a daily basis. He is a fighter, you have to give him that much. As far as having affairs, or talking to Russians; few people care about those things these days. It didn't bring down Bill Clinton and Hillary's camp talked to Russians as much as the Trump people did, so all of that is a wash IMO. As for his policies, some of them I like and some of them I don't, just as with any president. I do think he's stirred the pot more than Obama ever did. He is trying to get Washington to get some things done for a change.
And Obama is largely responsible for Trump even taking his own campaign seriously. I believe Trump got serious about it after that Washington Press Club dinner where Obama and his staff made a lot of very cruel jokes aimed at Trump, who was sitting right there. Trump didn't buckle, but after that dinner he got serious about making a run at the White House. Sometimes taunting your opponent backfires; it sure did for Obama. Handing the keys to the castle over to Trump and watching him be sworn in as President must have really stung Obama. He never imagined.....
